To say that Itsuki Minami leads a good life isn't exactly accurate, but he does live an interesting one. His buddies know him as "Babyface", the strongest punk in his school and the fighting linchpin of the Eastside. His parents are gone, but he lives with the four Noyamano sisters, an arrangement that any hot-blooded young man might envy, were it not for the outrageous abuse they heap upon him. Overall, not a bad life. That is, until the day that his routine existence is turned on its head after some rival punks sic a very nasty gang on him. Afterwards, while at the end of his proverbial rope, the Noyamano sisters extend to him an unexpected helping hand, introducing Itsuki to a new technology with unusual hand-to-hand combat applications: Air Gear.
Plot and characters are neither unique nor anything special, but they stands out only due to Oh! great!'s art. Its fantastic as usual (remember Tenjho Tenge). He's a master of drawing cool poses, stylish clothing, violent impacts, and gorgeous women.
Another note worthy component of this series is its music. Its groovy, funky and upbeat. I liked it very much!
Extreme sports packed with liberal dose of violence, profanity, and risquГѓВ© humor. That's Air Gear for you!
