Synopsis of Kill la Kill

Kill la Kill begins at Honnouji Academy, a school on Honnō Island in Tokyo Bay, dominated by an iron-fisted student council. Its students wear Goku uniforms, made from a fabric called Life Fibers, which grant them superhuman abilities. Ryuko Matoi arrives in town as an exchange student with a single goal: to find the killer of her father, Isshin Matoi. Her search puts her face to face with Satsuki Kiryūin, the council president, and the four elite members who enforce the rules by force. Created by the Trigger studio and directed by Hiroyuki Imaishi, the series airs on MBS.
