#Yandere #Connected Short Stories

The Prince of Tennis · Atobe:

Tokugawa Haruo was the most capable and gentle manager in Hyotei’s tennis club. The regulars praised his skills, and his classmates were impressed by how thoughtful he was.

Only Atobe sensed something strange about him: missing personal belongings, inexplicably lingering stares…

But until the ending is decided, who can be sure they aren’t the prey? Even when faced with an obsessive admirer, Keigo Atobe remains the most dazzling.

Kuroko’s Basketball · Akashi:

Terazawa Asuka had been runner-up for as long as he could remember. As long as Seijuro Akashi existed, he would always be the overlooked second place.

But one day, trapped with Asuka, he discovered that the seemingly glamorous Akashi was trapped, too. Unable to manage the basketball club and left far behind by his friends, Akashi escaped reality by splitting off a second personality.

Terazawa Asuka: You understand my frustration, but you don’t have to. You’re the only one who can stand above me.

Haikyu!! · Oikawa:

Irie Ken was a genius hated by Toru Oikawa.

But to earn Oikawa’s attention, he was willing to do whatever it took to maintain his genius persona.

The Prince of Tennis · Yukimura:

Wakabayashi Aoki was a name his parents had invested their deepest hopes in, and the only kind of luck he had ever been given.

After his police officer parents died in the line of duty, he was adopted by the Yukimuras. His childhood was filled with traces of Seiichi Yukimura. Like an umbrella held open above him, Yukimura shielded him from all the damp miseries fate brought down.

That was why he couldn’t let go. He was willing to make Yukimura’s will the guiding principle of his own life.

The Prince of Tennis · Akaya…
