Ro-Kyu-Bu ~ Fast Break!

Synopsis

Subaru Hasegawa dreams of becoming an elite basketball player, but those plans fall apart when his school's basketball club is suspended for a full year. Discouraged, Subaru considers giving up the sport entirely. His aunt, Mihoshi Takamura, convinces him to coach the Keishin Academy girls' basketball team, and Subaru reluctantly agrees. Once there, he meets a group of fifth graders—Tomoka Minato, Maho Misawa, Airi Kashii, Hinata Hakamada, and Saki Nagatsuki—and begins leading them toward a common goal: defeating every strong opponent they encounter. Ro-Kyu-Bu! focuses on the growth and development of these young girls and their coach as they refine their unique style of basketball play.
