It's basically a {{Homage}} to and {{Deconstruction}} of the stereotypical shounen [[TournamentArc tournament-centered series]]. There's a WorldOfHam and [[BadassBoast Badass Boasts]], there are {{Mons}} who get [[ShonenUpgrade Shonen Upgrades]], the tournament is SeriousBusiness, there's a plucky hero who's [[ToBeAMaster determined to be the very best]].
Except, not really. The hamminess and badass boasts are shows the players put on to attract fans, the mons are really a race of non human [[NobleSavage Noble Savages]] who were [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything forcibly removed from their ancestral lands and made to serve humans]]. They call themselves Icim, but humans call them "macor" (after the Icim's name for their warriors, "makhorre"). Macor have various powers, [[ElementalPowers most of them elemental ]], but their [[ShonenUpgrade true powers]] are unlocked when they form [[MagicallyBindingContract contracts]] with the shamans of their tribes. In subjugating the macor, humans killed all of the shamans and took on the shaman-role for themselves. Therefore, humans and macor fight in pairs, with the human[[{{Synchronization}} receiving damage]] when their macor is injured. They fight in tournaments called "Munera," around which the governments of most cities revolve. Mostly because Munera keeps the lower classes nicely distracted from the [[{{Dystopia}} social stratification, poverty, and generally crappy conditions in the cities]].
