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?

Haruo's Idea

Currently, Koji couldn't help but feel excited. He tried his best to hide his trembling hand, didn't want to show any weakness or mess up in such a crucial situation. He couldn't help it though. Just like any other sophomore who experienced the disaster last year, he didn't have a high hope for this team. The thought that they were a weak team had already been planted inside his mind, and no matter what the coach and the optimistic freshmen like Yuki and Riku said, it wouldn't change his mind that they were a weak team.

That was why when the weak team managed to beat a far stronger team and match the intensity of another strong team, he finally started to feel optimistic. He began to imagine how it would feel to win this game, what would happen next and how amazing they would be treated by their peers. All of those images flew around his head one by one, and it somehow made him excited all of a sudden.
