Absolute Duo
アブソリュート・デュオ
Soul-infused weapons ignite the battlefield, but Tooru's Blaze defies expectations as a shield. In a school where combat skills reign, he's paired with a stunning silver-haired girl, sparking a whirlwind of action and romance. If you love supernatural action, this is unmissable.
The story begins with Blaze — a weapon that is the manifestation of a human's soul. Tooru Kokonoe happens to be qualified for this, but for some reason his Blaze is not a weapon, but a shield. Moreover, he enrolled in a school that teaches combat skills, and thanks to the school's Duo partner system, he ends up living with a beautiful silver-haired girl.
