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

Time seemed to freeze for a moment as all the eyes were on Nitta. Some of the people on the stand and Konan's players on the court were confused, not knowing from where the boy had this confidence. After all, Konan players managed to shut him down for good for almost all the time in this game, and Nitta still dared to show his broken fand and attacked them fiercely as if he had a chance to succeed now.

However, Nitta himself didn't care.

He knew he couldn't contribute to the team like what Haruo did in the first half, and he also knew he couldn't show such an all-around performance as Lucas did earlier. He was probably the least capable player who could copy that performance on the court. Still, if there was one thing Nitta was sure about, it was his ability as a hitter, and that was what he was trying to showcase.

Nitta's Awakening!
