Hitori No Shita - The Outcast

The grave of a man named Chou Shakurin has been disturbed in the Chinese countryside. A girl named Houhou, claiming to be the granddaughter of the grave's occupant, appears there. At the same time, Chou Soran, a student at a college in the city, has returned to the countryside to visit his grandfather Shakurin's grave.

The morning after the zombie attack, Soran returns to college. Houhou tells him that she’ll be going to the same college he is, and she asks him to show her the power he used to fight the zombies. Soran jokes around, but Houhou takes out her knife and attacks him. Soran refuses to fight back, remembering his grandfather’s words. The time to use the power that his father, Yotoku, made him practice when he was young... Then, something envelopes Soran’s body. As the two of them fight, Ro Ryou, who physically looks like a young boy, and the zombie who defiled the grave are gathered in an abandoned building somewhere. At their feet is Shakurin’s body, and a beautiful woman named Natsuka appears as well. Now, Soran has no choice but to fight, and Natsuka, Ro Ryou, and the Zombie are beginning to make their move as well. What did Shakurin leave to Soran when he died? And what will Soran do now that he remembers Shakurin’s words?

Not only has he become Houhou’s servant, but now his roommate is calling him suspicious! Just as everything’s going against him, Soran gets a friend request for a social network on his phone. And it’s from a cute girl! Soran gets excited, but Houhou tells him there’s someone she wants him to meet that evening. Soran wants to go on his date, so he ignores his master’s phone call. The girl who appears at the meeting spot is Kenken, who is as cute as her picture, and very kind as well. Meanwhile, Houhou is with Jo San, who she was supposed to introduce to Soran that night. Infuriated, she uses GPS technology to track him, saying that she’ll need to give him a very harsh lesson. What will happen with Soran’s date? Will Houhou find him? What will happen next?

Excited by his first chance at a date, Soran is easily deceived by Kenken and his Kinkou is sealed away. Natsuka, Ro Ryou, and Kenken capture him. Houhou and Josan come to save him. A battle begins as the helpless Soran is left tied up in the corner. As more and more outsiders and zombies join the fight, Soran is saved by a new power user, Saru. The place becomes a war zone as all the outsiders use their powers. The capture of Soran brings the two outsider organizations into open conflict. Who will survive? And what will happen to Soran?

In the prison on the bottom floor is Kenken, who was betrayed by Zensei and captured by Express Delivery. Jo San tries to get information about Zensei from her, but she refuses to talk. Suddenly, Jo Yon, his older brother, appears, and when she won’t answer his questions he tries to use force. Soran tries to stop him, and it feels like a battle could break out in the prison at any second. Soran wants Jo San to go easy on Kenken, and Jo San is about to agree, when Jo Yon interrupts and refuses. At last, Kenken talks. Why did they steal Chou Shakurin’s body? What does Zensei want? Why did Kenken try to join Zensei? The truth is revealed.

Soran is kidnapped, and met by Chou Reigyoku. Reigyoku uses kinkou, the techniques that Soran was taught by his father when he was little. His kinkou is more powerful than Soran’s, so Soran has no way to fight back. At the same time, Houhou goes to save him, but Fuu Saen blocks her path. As the two of them fight, they can feel Reigyoku’s ki off in the distance. They agree to a temporary truce...
