About this series
Every day an epic struggle rages in grocery stores across Japan - the battle for half-priced bento boxes!

When a young, broke high school student named Sato joins the Half-Priced Food Lovers Club, he proves to be a rising talent in the world of insane food fights. But does he have what it takes to become the king of clearance cuisine?
