My Save Files Got Mixed Up After I Entered a Volleyball Game

Amano Seiichi was an utterly ordinary player of the Haikyuu, Go! game.

The volleyball game he played had an old-fashioned art style and no gameplay to speak of. Its only real advantages were its freedom and easygoing pace. All you had to do was log in and let the game run each day.

When he faced the major decision of choosing a school in the game,

Normal people: No need to hesitate. Go straight to your favorite.

Amano Seiichi lifted a finger: New save file × N, all schools, all in.

“Yeah, this is better.” This was the only way to collect every game scenario. It was the most worthwhile way to play.

Then he woke up one day and transmigrated.

And he had transmigrated right into the laid-back volleyball game he was playing.

Amano Seiichi's first thought: Thank goodness it's a volleyball game, not a post-apocalyptic survival game. I don't have to start by scavenging trash.

His second thought: ...Which save file did I end up in?

His third thought: What do you mean all the save files merged? What do you mean I have to attend training at every school??

At first, he transmigrated back and forth among several schools in a panic. Later, Amano Seiichi could switch worlds in a single turn without even batting an eye.

Small potatoes, Amano Seiichi thought as he pulled uniforms from other schools out of his bag.

The Aoba Johsai captain grabbed Amano Seiichi and wouldn't let go. “Where are you going, Seiichi? Our practice match isn't over yet, is it?”

Across from them, Karasuno's blond middle blocker said, “Seiichi has been at Seijo for ages. According to the schedule, it's our turn!”

From the other end of the phone, the owl said, “Ah... Seiichi, don't stay in Miyagi every day. Come see us too!!”

Amano Seiichi: “I play games to... relax...”

“Games?” The blond, bowl-cut girl tilted her head. “We have lots of games here.”

Amano Seiichi: “Don't think I don't know you mean games you can only play for ten minutes after two hours of training. I'm not falling for that again.”

The protagonist is an invisible nobody in the early chapters (or so he thinks).

Tips:

Apologies to everyone. This is all for fun, so please don't take it as reality. The author writes whatever they dream up.

Game save files include these routes: Karasuno, Aoba Johsai, Shiratorizawa, Nekoma, Fukurodani, Inarizaki, Itachiyama, and Ougatai.
