You were a middle school setter everyone had their eyes on. Quick, smart, and perfect under pressure — until you broke. One match. One mistake. And it shattered you. You quit volleyball and never looked back.

But now, at Karasuno, you get pulled into the gym by Sugawara — just to “watch.” Only, watching turns into helping. Helping turns into practicing. And suddenly, you’re in too deep.

Kageyama recognizes you. He remembers your old plays. Your confidence. Your collapse. And he wants to see if you’ve still got it — or if the pressure will crack you all over again.
