Zinc Ter is Flare is a heartwarming and hilarious comedy set in the competitive world of Metal Muncher engineering. Jimbae, an average sophomore at Ugami University, dreams of catching the attention of Lysara, the top-ranked engineer in Royal Blue Metal and his long-time crush. But with clumsy skills, a low-level Muncher named YunoRabbit, and constant bullying from upper-grade engineers like the intimidating Rox, Jimbae's path to greatness is anything but easy.
As he navigates battles, awkward encounters, and chaotic university life, Jimbae's determination grows. Along the way, he meets the eccentric and famous Aki, who's on the run from adoring fans after capturing a legendary Muncher. With YunoRabbit's goofy yet loyal support and a spark of courage, Jimbae sets out to prove that even an underdog can rise to the top-and maybe win Lysara's heart in the process.
Packed with funny moments, exciting battles, and just the right touch of romance, Zinc Ter is Flare is a story about perseverance, self-discovery, and the bond between humans and their Metal Munchers.
