Plot Summary of Rave Master
"Haru Glory is an ordinary boy just like everyone else. One day, a stranger falls into his life, changing him forever. Haru learns that he is the new Rave Master. The Rave Master is the only person in the world who has Plue, a weird critter with a carrot shaped nose, and can control Rave. Rave is a small jewlery piece that contains a lot of power. Rave Masters have a job of bringing down those who use the Dark Brings. A Dark Bring is like Rave except it is evil. This stranger in Haru's life was a former Rave master. Even though the stranger, Shiba spent all his life defeating Dark Bring users, one small mistake destroyed everything he did. Now Haru is the Rave Master."
