The year is 1991 and 6th grader Yaguchi Haruo only has video games to live for. He's not popular in school and he's neither handsome, funny, nice nor even friendly. The only thing he has going for him is that he is good at video games. One day at the local arcade, he plays Oono Akira, a fellow classmate but who's popular, smart, pretty and a rich girl that absolutely destroys him at Street Fighter II. Not only does he lose to her 30 times in a row, he can't beat her at any game. Haruo can't seem to shake Akira off as she follows him from arcade to arcade everyday after school and beats him every time. As weird as it sounds, the odd couple begins a strange bond and friendship.
Comic Brian Regan has become a well-known name on the comedy circuit since releasing his first stand-up album in 1997. In this hybrid series, he blends his trademark observational stand-up with short sketches and audience interaction. Topics range from everyday things that people can relate to -- such as sitting too close to others at restaurants and lost luggage -- to more out-there subjects like being the guy who flew to the moon but didn't get to walk on it.
