Kimichika and Yuni were childhood friends, but Kimichika moved away when they were still in kindergarten. Yuni is ecstatic to hear that Kimichika is moving back after eight years, but when they are reunited, Kimichika had completely changed.

The boys get ready for their first tournament and their hopes are high. But Yuni starts to get nervous during the game and panics. Haijima manages to salvage the game, but his teammates now look at him differently.

Yuni and Kimichika now go to Seiin High School, but haven't really talked to each other since their last middle school tournament. Oda, Seiin's volleyball team captain, tries to get Kimichika to join the team.
