Iwaizumi Kaname has to hate Akaashi.
Even if the two of them are childhood friends, even if Akaashi secretly takes him in when he rebels and runs away from home.
Iwaizumi Kaname still hates him.
He hates that he's the "other people's kid" his parents always talk about. He hates how calm and composed Akaashi always is. He hates Akaashi lecturing him...
He hates that Akaashi promised to set the ball for him, but went off chasing after someone else's footsteps.
He hates him so much!
Iwaizumi Kaname hates the giant who stole his childhood friend even more.
The kind of attention Iwaizumi can only get by rebelling, dyeing his hair, and skipping class.
Why is it that the other guy can attract all of Akaashi's attention just by standing there?
Then I'll be faster, even faster. I'll receive every spike from the hitter and put an end to all suspense...
Will the back you look at change to mine?
If I don't fight to the death today, I won't be an Iwaizumi!
But that mountain is so impossibly huge. The harder Iwaizumi chases after him, the more lost he feels...
Oh no. Without realizing it, I'm becoming his little fan too.
Should I give up?
Thinking he'd lost both on the court and in love, Iwaizumi Kaname prepares to leave in defeat. The next day, he wakes up in bed and sees someone right beside him.
I didn't get to take my beauty home, but my beauty took me home... That's... fine too.
Akaashi, who gets scolded for never looking at Iwaizumi's back and finally learns the whole story: ...Because you're a libero!
Just kidding. Iwaizumi Kaname will always love Akaashi.
