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?

The Game Begins!

Sekine always had a keen eye for recognizing talent. That was a fact that all the Tokyo Thunder coaching staff knew. Out of nearly thirty players on the team, from the main echelon to the U-19 team, almost all were scouted by the old man himself. Even though some came through friends' recommendations, he was always impartial, never hesitating to reject anyone who didn't meet the standard.

However, this was probably the first time Ryotaro Kawaki, the U-19 team coach, saw the old man introduce two high school students to join the team.

There was no rule preventing this; the team always emphasized developing their young players. But there had never been a high school student on the team. Besides the fact that they were still minors and restricted by their school activities, their bodies hadn't fully developed yet, making it harder to adapt to the pace of older players.
