Synopsis

In middle school, Ichinose Kimitaka taught his friends how to play basketball. Despite his experience with the sport, his friends quickly outmatched him in skill. After an incident brought on by his frustration and jealousy, he was crushed to overhear those same 'friends' discussing how they wished he'd just kill himself.

On his way to toss out his special basketball shoes, he met a girl who was just as frustrated, throwing her own dancing shoes away. She was so tall, and her hands and feet are so large, that she had been rejected from her chosen hobby of Spanish dancing. He urged her to give basketball a try, and the two exchanged their shoes instead of throwing them away.

As he enters high school, Kimitaka learns that meeting him changed that girl's life for the better, and she is now a happy, social basketball player. Will Kimitaka be able to find the courage to make new friends and pursue his own talents?

I'm writing this short yet simple review because this series was so WELL WRITTEN in my opinion. (its not really a review rather its me showing my my love for this series)

This series was so wonderful with simple storytelling with realistic problems that they have to face and overcome, each character is so LIKEABLE and well written in my opinion.

This series shows how a person can change both good way and in a bad way, one inspires while the other breaks them, one abandons and ones moves forward to strive change, it was just so satisfying to see each characters "growth" as a person. This ...

A great manga, a nice and fun read. Despite a hasty ending.

The MC, Ichinose, is a character who goes through a great journey throughout the work. He is a person who has made mistakes and has sunk into depression because of it. However, after the event that made him want to change, he gradually grows into a more open person about his passions and ...

This is my first review and it won't be detailed or good either.
I chose to write this review to show how disappointed I'm in this manga.

From "cuckolding" and cheating to enabling toxic relationships.
(spoilers) Now to the main story. The premise presents the mc and the female lead having an important encounter that ...
