Preliminary (38/407 chp)
I really liked how this manga has such a realistic feel to it and how it can still give off this lighthearted vibe. It's nowhere as heavy as other sports shounen but still manages to convey the effort and feelings of the players.

Story - 10
I loved the story so far, how it's not just training-match-training-match and so forth but also focuses on the players and their quirks, you get to know each one quite a bit. Moreover, it's super funny without coming over as forced or insanely stupid so the humour is definintely a big plus as well.

Art - 9
It's not the best I've ever seen but definitely fits the story, which is, in my humble opinion, way more important than it just looking pretty. Also, it makes the characters seem more alive, in a way, and adds a certain 'action' feel.

Characters - 10
There's one of every caliber which adds to the diversity of characters. The author really has a great feel for making characters clash and at the same time become great friends. It's hilarious at times, sentimental at others and always keeps the overall balance. I'm looking forward to future developments.

Overall, I rate this manga a 10 because all the factors above are making me enjoy it very much. It's a great read and I'd definitely recommend it not only to sports manga readers. Though you might enjoy it a bit more if you like volleyball/sports. ;))
