This is a really cute sports manga with a good balance between sports and teen life and love. Taiki, a third year middle school student who plays badminton, has a crush on Chinatsu, a first year high school student who plays basketball. Both are very dedicated to their sport, and see each other in the gym before school every day. When Chinatsu tells him about her family moving overseas, Taiki encourages her not to give up on her dreams of going to Nationals no matter what, which leads to her not only staying in Japan when her family leaves, but also moving into his house - it turns out their parents are old friends. Will this give Taiki the opportunity to win Chinatsu over, or will he keep quiet about his crush to keep them both from being distracted from their dreams?
In this first volume, we get the setup for later high jinks, though we get a taste of that here. At this point, their friendship is still developing, and we can see them starting to get to know each other. Though they don't play the same sport, they share the drive to be the best they can be at their respective sport, and this is clearly leading to a camaraderie between them. There's just something relly sweet about this story, and I look forward to the next volume.
