On one hand you have the energetic and loud Peko (Hoshino Yutaka), and on the other you have the silent Smile (Tsukimoto Makoto). While most people don't think much of Smile and generally consider Peko the stronger player because of his offensive style of playing; the school ping pong club teacher notices a hidden talent in Smile.
