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 Begins! (I)

"Okay, here we go again."

Yuki took a deep breath before stepping into the court for the second set. He was followed by his teammates who somehow had a similar expression, weighted by the fact that this was probably the last set they played together as a team. Even Riku who usually was the first one to encourage the others didn't speak anything this time, couldn't shake off the heavy atmosphere on the team.

A moment like this made them all realize the importance of a great leader among them. Even though after the third-year players retired, Koji stepped forward as the official captain of the team, he was so fragile and easily pressured by the opponent to the point he always became the first one to crumble in the middle of the game. The other sophomore students also couldn't fill the shoes, didn't have the leadership ability Tsunemori needed to become a great team.
