An Energy-Saving Socially Anxious Person Survives Volleyball Through Friendship

Since this isn't purely about volleyball, I'll clarify: the story includes lots of volleyball, a moderate amount of basketball, and a little of other things, but they all branch off from the main plot. You don't need to know the original works to enjoy it. Each character either influences the protagonist's growth or is related to him. I was scared to death in my previous life because of my social anxiety. In this life, I have to become a social butterfly if I want to live a normal life. Makino Tsuru has always thought of himself as a crow in some dark corner, playing volleyball in the shadows and living in the shadows. His only little hobby was quietly collecting sparkling humans. For some reason, though, humans kept coming up to him and startling him. Well, look where that got him: he was scared to death. Then he came back to life in a world full of sparkling humans. If he didn't make friends with them, he couldn't live a normal human life. So, in order to keep playing volleyball, Makino Tsuru cautiously took a few steps out of his dark corner, and then the sparkling humans dragged him into the sunlight. Getting scorched. One hundred and eighty days of it. Makino Tsuru: (screaming) (howling) (crawling ominously) No, please, boss, I'm just a cockroach in the gutter, a crow in the dark. There's nothing special about me, so please don't grab me! Aaaaaah! (shaking his head) (stumbling backward) (muttering to himself) (screaming in despair) No, way Q: What do you think of player Makino Tsuru? Ushijima: (seriously) Tsuru is Tsuru. Tendo: Tsuru and I are bird bros, you know~ Oikawa: Tch, another shining genius. Kozume: He's a great gaming teammate, but on the court he turns into a boss... Scary... Hinata: So how does he do that "whoosh, " and "smack," and then "bam!" and "thud!"? I want to learn! Daisho: Why does Mihua think this guy's a rabbit, anyway?! Anyone who's seen Makino Tsuru on the court will never be able to take their eyes off him. He seems born to bask in the attention of the crowd on the playing field, soaring high like a white crane spreading its wings. Well, it would be even better if he weren't so introverted and had a little more passion. Makino Tsuru: But nobody told me the world would end if I didn't make friends??!! Important Notes * Lots of OOC. The protagonist is a Mary Sue, socially anxious, and has lived two lives, but the story of his previous life is realistic and heavy. I'll let you know when we get to it. It's a no-couple, everyone-loves-the-protagonist story. I just wanted to write a comedy, but it seems to be veering further and further off course. * Volleyball is the main focus, but there will also be plots from Kuroko's Basketball, Prince of Tennis, The Disastrous Life of Saiki K., and Blue Lock. Most of the plot is original. You don't need to have read the original works to follow along. I've changed them beyond recognition anyway. * His friends aren't all volleyball players. There's a reason this socially anxious guy has to make friends. Tsuru treats his friends very differently from everyone else, and can be mean to people who aren't his friends. He may temporarily dislike certain characters because of his experiences, but they'll all get along later! There are no bad guys in Haikyu!! * Tsuru is extremely low-energy in everyday life but plays volleyball extremely aggressively. He has a lot of physical contact with his friends and is very clingy. At heart, he's a bit of a sadist and a wisecracker. He's a very fragile little paper person, and since he's surrounded by love in this life, he's rather spoiled. There will be all kinds of scenes with him acting cute and crying. * The protagonist has a plot armor aura. The main tournament matches won't feature too heavily, and Shiratorizawa will win. * Please leave comments! Theme: Family and friendship can help people save themselves.
