Konta, once a promising swimmer, saved a young girl from drowning in the sea. Though she survived, she fell into a coma. Consumed by guilt, Konta abandoned the sport entirely. Five years later, he has become a recluse — a shadow of his former self. Worried for his future, his older sister invites him to coach the powerhouse swimming team at Shikinomori High School. Reluctantly, he headed to the pool — and there he met the very girl he had saved many years ago...
Make a wish and destiny will make sure to interfere. Eundeok is a (wannabe) normal high school freshman. But alas, he is too tall and built for his own convenience—chased by every varsity team wooing him since Day 1, he runs and runs and then ends up in a basketball court, a space where his childhood trauma and frustration still remain. Mistaken as a rumored super-rookie, our hero reluctantly picks up the ball. But, this time, it looks like there is something to help him carry on.
A super-powerful guy keeps defeating everyone around him, even though he doesn't like fighting.
Tachibana Souta is a bit of a multi-talented freeter who gets by from one part-time job to the next, his standout characteristic being that he's a bit short. One day he's roped by his older sister into 'serving' their college's volleyball team, of which she's a member. She also happens to be at least 6 and 1/2 ft. tall, as do the rest of the team's members who take quite the interest in Souta.
