The Birth of A Volleyball Legend

2011. That was when earthquake and tsunami hit Japan, changing thousands of lives. And Kobayashi Yuki is just one of them. A month ago, he was just a normal boy, graduating from a small middle school in Fukushima and was excited to go to the high school. However, the disaster changed his life. He lost both parents, not because they died, but because they were still missing until now. He lost his home. He lost his friends. He lost his school. He lost everything. Having no choice, he moved to Tokyo, to a small, new orphanage to accommodate victims of the disaster who didn't have any home or wanted to change their lives in the biggest city in Japan. In his mind, all he wanted to do was enter a normal high school, do a part-time job, make some money to help the orphanage, and maybe if he were lucky enough he could be admitted into a good university with a scholarship. However, one challenge from the volleyball team and one half-Italian blonde boy turned everything upside down. Now, he was trapped inside the crazy team, being dragged into the mess. Inter-High. National Tournament. Volleyball. Those three words kept spinning around his life as he entered a crazy high school life. Can he strive in the place where he was unfamiliar with? Would he be a good volleyball player? And what does the future hold for him?

D-Day!

"So, this is the infamous Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium, huh?" Yuki said, staring at the building in front of him in awe. "This is far more impressive than I thought."

It was the day when the game was played, and early in the morning, all the Tsunemori players had already arrived at the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium. It would be a lie if they said they weren't nervous. Somehow, they felt intimidated just by looking at the massive building in front of them, knowing how historic it was for the country.

"How old is this building?" Riku asked to no one.

"I don't know, about sixty years, I guess?" Koji said with an uncertain tone. "I know for sure that the building was used to host a lot of historical events like the world wrestling championship or the summer Olympics in the past."
