LatestThe old nemesis of Orthros shows up in town to undermine them once again. With Sen still sick with a cold, it will be up to Yo to figure out a way to rebalance the playing field for all the wolves, as they vie for seasonal eel bentos.
Every day an epic struggle rages in grocery stores across Japan - the battle for half-priced bento boxes! Once the discount stickers go on, ravenous brawlers start throwing punches in a knockdown, drag-out war over who gets to take home the cheap eats. 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?

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Half-price stickers (hanketsu) are real Japanese supermarket culture—this just adds street fighting.
The light novel author apparently worked part-time at a supermarket and based the entire premise on watching actual customers swarm discount shelves.
