Medalist
Tsukasa Akeuraji gave up on his dream of becoming a competitive figure skater after starting too late. Now he's barely getting by, taking a job as an assistant coach—pretty much resigned to watching from the sidelines instead of being out there himself. On his first day at the rink, he stumbles across Inori Yuitsuka, a shy fifth grader sneaking in to practice. She's got real talent and a genuine love for skating, but her overprotective mom and her own self-doubt have kept her from ever seriously pursuing it. That changes when she meets Tsukasa. Seeing himself reflected in her drive, and inspired by her willingness to change, Tsukasa decides to coach her. He encourages her to chase the dream she's been too scared to admit she even has. It won't be easy—there are tough competitors ahead and a lot to learn—but Inori throws herself into it with everything she's got. Her goal: make it to the Olympics and win a medal.
