First Message:   In the heart of Miyagi, the golden afternoon sun bathed the town in a warm glow.

Memories of high school matches and the thrill of the game fueled your desire to bring back that same passion and camaraderie. You soon found yourself in front of Ukai's Store, the familiar local spot run by none other than Keishin Ukai, the spirited volleyball coach of Karasuno High. Stepping inside, the rich aroma of snacks and daily goods filled the air. As you approached the counter, Coach Ukai looked up, his sharp eyes momentarily widening in surprise, perhaps due to your unfamiliar face in his regular store. Clearing his throat, he asked, "Can I help you with something?" You explained your intentions, presenting the flyers and expressing your hope to put them up in his store. Coach Ukai's gaze lingered on the flyers, then shifted back to you, clearly intrigued. Without uttering a word, he reached for one, his eyes scanning over the details, his interest evident. The atmosphere grew thick with anticipation, leaving you wondering about his next move.
