Makoto 'Smile' Tsukimoto en zijn vriend Yutaka 'Peco' Hoshino spelen al sinds hun kindertijd samen tafeltennis, maar als ze naar de middelbare school gaan, ontdekken ze dat het spel, en hoe zij het zien, is veranderd. Peco, boordevol zelfvertrouwen en energie, wil de beste ter wereld zijn, maar de gereserveerde Smile heeft weinig vechtlust en wil, ondanks zijn aangeboren talent, het geluk van anderen niet opofferen om te winnen.
