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?

Yuki VS Akihiro!

The most important task for a setter was always one, and that was to facilitate his teammates to get better while also helping them score a point in the game. That was why Sawada had never thought of doing something flashy like a dump, a no-look pass, or something like that. In his mind, the best setter was always one who strived in the dark and never showed his fang, yet still was able to enact fear toward the opponent.

However, that didn't mean he couldn't attack by himself.

Just like this time, when the game entered a tough rally with all the methods available being blocked by the opponent, Sawada knew he couldn't stay passive all the time. He knew something must be changed to break the deadlock. Coincidentally enough, his competitive spirit was also ignited by Yuki's service trick and Riku's constant provocation. He was determined to make a splash here to remind his opponent that while he was shy and quiet, that didn't mean he was easy to get bullied.
