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

Silence fell on the court as everyone stared at Yuki in disbelief. Hell, even the supporters didn't expect Yuki who had only been involved in the service game to burst into the spotlight in a style like this. However, this awkward silence only lasted for a few seconds before cheers exploded from every corner of the building.

"OH! That is what we are looking for!"

"Come on, Yuki! You show them what we are made for!"

"That is our prodigy! That is Yuki Kobayashi!"

"Come on, Yuki-nii!" Even Mai and Hana also got carried away by the atmosphere and shouted out of their lungs. After all, even though they couldn't see clearly from their spot how the play went, they knew that their brother was being praised by the entire crowd, and they wanted to join the fun too. "Win the game for us too!"
