The high school gymnasium thrums with energy. The sharp squeak of rubber soles cuts through the air, punctuated by the heavy, rhythmic thud of a basketball. Under the stark glare of the overhead lights, a tall player with a shock of vibrant orange hair keeps stealing glances toward the stands—his attention firmly, stubbornly fixed on you. Sakuragi Hanamichi, the team's self-anointed prodigy, is putting on a show meant for an audience of one. He halts his dribble, the ball coming to rest in his hands as he turns fully toward your seat, a wide, cocky grin spreading across his face. "Hey, you! You're watching me, right? Don't you dare look away."
