Outsider

Outsider is the first story arc of Furry Fight Chronicles and the first part of Act 1 that starts the events of the series. The main character of this part is Muko Bunburger.

## Description

Part 1 is composed of the first six chapters in the series. It serves to introduce the concept of furry fighting and introduces the main characters as the chapters advance.

## Plot

### Fenny Versus Roora

Muko, a young bunny, watches her first furry fighting match at Funawi Arena. The match is between Fenny and Roora. The match turns out to be intense yet equal between the two Combagals who use strength and technique. Eventually, Fenny wins the match. Impressed by what she saw, Muko decides to become a Combagal.

After intruding into the shower rooms, Muko asks Fenny how to become a Combagal. Fenny states that Muko needs to get a manager to become a Combagal. Muko returns home and starts looking for schools and agencies. She settles for the Champubator Agency managed by Cookie because she promises that her clients will get a match after a week.

### Meeting Manager Cookie

The following day, Muko quits her job at Cafe Carrots so that she's free to become a Combagal. She goes to the Champubator Agency and is surprised to discover that it's inside Monyan, a soapland. Muko enters the agency and meets Cookie. The squirrel voices her plans in tagging Muko with her other client, Nyarai, so that the two can participate at the Queens of Fighters Tournament.

Unfortunately, Muko has no training and knowledge about furry fighting. Undeterred, Cookie promises to promote Muko, asking her to meet her at Tendonchi the following day. When they meet the next morning, Cookie reveals that she intends to promote Muko by having her work at Cafe Carrots, much to Muko's dismay.

### Bet At Cafe Carrots

Manugo, the owner of Cafe Carrots, is not happy at the idea of Muko working in his business again. Cookie convinces him by reminding him of their bet. If Muko sells more than Manugo's maids, then she and Cookie get the earnings of the day. But if Muko loses, she will work at Cafe Carrots for a month without pay. The maids at Cafe Carrots, angry at Muko for her perverted antics towards them and her trying to get their winnings, decide to crush her in the competition.

Muko has trouble with the bet due to being socially awkward around men. Not wanting to lose the bet, Cookie teaches Muko how to use a persona to surpass her anxiety. Muko gets her first customer in Harry S. Fishkopp, who was planning on killing himself after being fired from his job and then divorced by his wife. Harry asks for every item on the menu, which gets Muko the upper hand as she's starting to attract more customers.

### Roda Kira Gang

Before Muko can win the bet, the door is kicked open by Kalita, a biker. She declares that Cafe Carrots is under the watch of the Roda Kira Gang. Kalita threatens Manugo, demanding protection money for her gang. Muko stops her by attempting to convince Kalita to leave and then tries to fight her. Annoyed by the rabbit, Kalita accepts Muko's challenge.

Seeing a chance to promote Muko, Cookie gives Muko a Combagal outfit. Muko fights Kalita but she loses because of her inexperience and her perverted antics, which enrage Kalita into pummeling her unconscious. Despite easily winning, Kalita develops a respect for Muko for standing up to her, deciding to let the restaurant keep the money.

Muko's performance made Cookie proud and Harry ends up becoming her first fan. Shira, one of the maids who hated Muko, gives Cookie the earnings as a reward for defending Cafe Carrots. Unfortunately, Manugo demands the money back, since Cafe Carrots was destroyed by Muko's fight with Kalita, putting Cookie in debt.

### Nyarai At The Nighthawk

Meanwhile, Nyarai, Muko's future partner is working as a hostess at Club Nighthawk. After getting groped by a client, Nyarai is given permission by her boss, Shun Gonfano, to beat the client up. After literally kicking her client out of the club, Nyarai asks Shun to let her be on Freydar's team, since she's tired of doing hostess work. The first part ends when Shun promises Nyarai that he'll make her the star of her debut once Cookie makes her comeback.

## Trivia

* At a length of six chapters, Outsider is the shortest part of the four that make up the first act.
* Nyarai is the main character who appears the least in this part, having only one chapter to her name. Fittingly, she's the main character in the second part.
* Because of its short length, Part 1 and the first chapters of Part 2 are compiled in the first volume of the comic.
