Its as much inspiration as infatuation.
When Taiki sees shes still practicing well after school hours and normal practice, they play one-on-one together.
She obliterates him, but also compliments him on his ability to move due to his own diligent practicing.
He learns shes actually not going anywhere, but is staying with an acquaintance while her family moves.
She tells Taiki he was the one who convinced her to stay and keep trying for the nationals.
And youd better believe every title of my write-ups for this show will be a basketball or badminton term!
