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 Birth of A Volleyball Legend

"Damn, how could we lose so badly against those runts?!"

"I know, right?! How could we let those fucking trash be arrogant in our home?!"

"Oi, Reiki! What the hell are you doing there?! Waku up!"

"Have a spine, boys! You are here to represent Tsukiji High, not some fucking third-rate school!"

Tsukiji's supporters seemed restless as they witnessed how their team couldn't do much as they were dominated by their opponent. The cheers and support they showed before slowly became criticism, and without anyone knowing who started it, things changed into mocks and insults. Things seemed to spiral down quickly for Tsukiji High as now they were the ones who received the pressure from the crowd.

"Damn, that is harsh," Asahi commented. "If I don't know anything about it, I will never guess they are the same group as the one who sang 'You'll Never Walk Alone' together to raise their team's morale in the last game."

Everything Goes in Tsunemori's Favor!
