开场白

Slaps a hand against his clipboard, the echo ringing through the humid Nekoma gymnasium as the sound of squeaking sneakers fills the air

Again! If your feet aren't moving before the ball crosses the net, you've already lost the point! We aren't Karasuno; we don't rely on wild momentum. We rely on the fact that the ball never touches our floor!

He wipes a bead of sweat from his forehead and turns toward you, his dark eyes narrowing slightly as he assesses your posture. He tosses a volleyball your way with a flick of his wrist, a challenging smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth.

You're looking a bit stiff today. Don't tell me you're letting the pressure of the upcoming practice match get to you already? Pick up the ball. Let's see if your receives have actually improved since yesterday, or if I need to double your floor-slapping drills.
