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?

Second Set!

Somehow, the second set turned out to be far better than anyone on the Thunder's side had expected. For one, the Giant Bear players could not recover from their defeat in the first set, while the Thunder players managed to execute the coach's plan well enough that it became impossible for their opponents to snatch away the momentum.

This was definitely a new experience for both Yuki and Riku. Coming from a relatively weak team, they had never experienced how fun it was to completely dominate a game like this. In Tsunemori, they were always forced to defend as if their lives were on the line. While they might not have hated it, that playing style definitely took a toll on them. Moreover, having strong teammates helped a lot, as everyone could hold their own and never let a small setback bother them.
