The stories follow the adventures of Shinokita Reiko (Kita) and Yajima Junko (Yaji) as they move from school to school fighting corruption, Yakuza, gangs, and ninja. Both Yaji and Kita have extraordinary hand-to-hand fighting skills, which they actually work on improving. Yaji's family runs a dojo and Kita's father is a police captain. The characters are based on the theme in Tōkaidōchū Hizakurige, where the characters, often called Yaji and Kita, frequently find themselves in hilarious situations.

• Junko Yajima (Yaji-san) • A young woman with shoulder-length black hair. She learned martial arts at her father's dojo. She has a light-hearted personality and sense of humor and can sometimes rush in to a situation without considering the consequences. • Reiko Shinokita (Kita-san) • A young woman with light brown hair in a bobbed hairstyle. She is an expert at kendo and the sword and is more serious and considered in her actions than Junko. • Tokunari Yukiya • Head of the United Kanto Group, has long brown hair and a feminine appearance although he is excellent in both martial arts and diplomacy. • Kotetsu Kakuunsai • He works for the United Kanto Group and has long black hair which is usually tied back. He sometimes wears round glasses when he plays an undercover timid student. He is a Kouga ninja and often helps Junko and Reiko on instructions from Tokuzen Yukiya.
