Aoba no Basket

A 195cm junior high student named Taiki Aoba is often seen as an outsider when playing basketball due to his height. Feeling uncertain about himself, he meets Leo, a standout player on Japan's U16 national team. Leo tells Taiki that his real strength lies not in his height but in his ability to make quick decisions during one-on-one play. Inspired by Leo's view of basketball as a game that values more than just physical traits, Taiki becomes determined to surpass him. To pursue this goal, he enrolls at Aorei High School, a leading basketball institution in Tokyo.
