Tokyo's Itachiyama is a famous high school, and its powerhouse volleyball team boasts not only Komori Motoya, the best libero in the country, but also Sakusa Kiyoomi, an outside hitter hailed as one of the nation's top three aces.
Whether they know who he is or not, anyone who spends a few days with Sakusa Kiyoomi soon gets some idea of just how much of a germaphobe he is.
Komori Motoya, who knows this all too well, wipes away a bitter tear and looks in dismay at Sakusa, standing a meter away with a mask on.
It's time for the annual club recruitment drive again, which means the volleyball team is about to welcome a whole new generation!
Now a senior, Komori Motoya takes it upon himself to educate the new recruits. His scrutinizing gaze sweeps over the many freshmen who look like they're just there to mess around, then lands on Aoyama and stays there.
At first glance, this new student looks handsome and clean-cut. But... his gaze drops to the rubber gloves Aoyama is wearing.
Hmm... I've got a bad feeling about this... Could this guy be another Sakusa?!!
"Aoyama! How many times have I told you... Don't dodge the ball!!"
The Itachiyama volleyball team is losing their minds again today.
After Sakusa, the germaphobe, Itachiyama has welcomed another student whose obsession with cleanliness is just as intense: Aoyama.
