Coach, Don't Go to Karasuno!

Last year, she was a manager and the acting coach while the team's coach was hospitalized. She filled in for over half a year. The team was so impressive that they climbed the rankings and made it into the national tournament's top eight.

Under a clear spring sky, the new school year was about to begin. Her best friend convinced her to transfer schools and start training a new team from scratch, becoming its official coach.

But that year, teams from other schools improved at a dizzying pace. Before long, she was being scouted by all sides and forced to join various schools' training camps and joint practices.

At last, she was completely worn out and planned to settle down and enjoy retirement. Then Karasuno's little sun came fluttering over.

One "Rika, you're amazing!" after another left her dazed. Little by little, she lost herself in Hinata's straightforward praise.

Later, halfway through practice, the coach would often disappear, leaving the school's volleyball team behind. On the practice plan, they'd always find notes like this:

"I'm off to enjoy retirement and birdwatch. I'm going to check on my little crows at Karasuno. Keep up the good work!"

!!!

"Coach!!! We're playing Karasuno tomorrow!!!"

★ A crossover.

Mainly Haikyuu!!, with a little Prince of Tennis on the side.

★ Updates whenever inspiration strikes, but it won't be abandoned.

The pace is like a nearly empty tube of toothpaste. Squeeze it and there's a little left; don't squeeze it and there's nothing.

★ If it's not your thing, stop reading in time.

The writing is awful, there's no logic, and it's full of OOC moments and bugs. It's really terrible. If you don't like it, don't let curiosity make you read on.
