SYNOPSIS
Riku Haruma walks past his school's rugby team and sees something nobody else does: potential buried under poor coaching and scattered effort. Once a player himself, Riku knows the sport's language. When he offers quick tactical advice and watches the team immediately respond, he understands what's really missing. They don't need a star athlete. They need someone who sees the whole field. Riku commits to turning the team around, but he's not built like a rugby player. He's smaller, lighter, outmatched in raw power against opponents like Akira Kariya. What he has instead is experience, timing, and the ability to read the game others can't. As he pushes the struggling squad toward actual competition, Riku discovers that leadership means pushing past your own limitations and getting others to believe in something bigger than themselves. Rugby becomes the stage for growth, friction, and the kind of victories that come from figuring out who you're supposed to be.
