Story

Mao Lan, a person of Chinese origin born and raised in Japan, has been trained in the secret martial art of her family by her drunken lecherous grandfather Master Mao Hung. Her grandfather has promised her that he'll tell her what happened to her parents to encourage her to train and fight. Without her knowledge, her grandfather signs her up to participate in a televised martial arts competition between female martial artists known as "Prime Mat". During the course of the series it is revealed that Lan's mother married Cao Da Hen and gave birth to Lan's step-sister Ling-Shen.

Characters

Mao Lan (Шаблон:Zh)

Шаблон:Anime voice

Mao tries to act a typical teenage girl with little results. She has been trained since she could walk in Mao's family style called Mao Family Juhe Fist (毛家居合拳). The form takes characteristics from sword techniques and incorporates them into an empty-handed fighting style. From the start of both the manga and anime, Mao Lan demonstrates almost complete mastery of this form. Through flashbacks it is shown that she develops skills and abilities that only a master should be capable of.

Mao Hun (Шаблон:Zh)

Шаблон:Anime voice

Grandfather to Mao Lan and grandmaster and creator of Mao Family Juhe Fist. After moving from China with his friend and rival Cao Fusheng. He develops a style of Kenpo based on the fighting style of the samurai sword techniques. He teaches Mao Lan to fight using various odd and sometimes dangerous tests like fighting a bear or fighting a gang of thugs.

Fu Shen is the true master of Cao Family Bajiquan (曹家八極拳), the rival of Mao Family Juhe Fist. In both the manga and anime he is extremely ill. He is also upset that his son Cao Da-Hen has taken the family-style kenpo and turned it into a product for money. At the start of the series, he asks Mao Hun to have Mao Lan stop his granddaughter Cao Chunyang by killing her (actually by the end you realize it is not a literal death, but by Chun Yan's defeat his style will die with him.)

Cao Da-Hen (Шаблон:Zh)

Lan's strongest opponent. She is extremely vain and arrogant. She hates her younger step-sister to the point of almost killing her by using her as a sparring dummy. Chun Yan is secretly trained in Mao style by Gangli who was a former student of Mao Hun, so she can counter Lan's Fajing technique. She is beaten by Lan at the end of the first series, then at a train station she's talking to Lan saying she has a lot more to learn and hopes to have a rematch sometime in the future.
