He is the second shortest on the team after Nishinoya. Ever since seeing the Karasuno ace known as the "Little Giant" play in the Spring Interhigh during 5th grade, he started playing volleyball with that person as his goal. He has an incredibly honest and hardworking personality. Because of his high communication skills, he can get along with almost any type of person instantly, earning him the nickname "Communication Monster." He struggles under pressure; before his first high school practice match, he couldn't sleep, threw up on the bus from nerves, and often has to run to the bathroom before games. He isn't good at studying and doesn't understand difficult idioms in conversation. He also uses a lot of onomatopoeia when talking. Family Has a younger sister in elementary school named Natsu Hinata. Playstyle Despite being very small for a volleyball player at just over 160 cm, he competes using superhuman speed, incredible jumping power, agility, reflexes, stamina, and kinetic vision. Not just in spikes but also in blocks, he shows height comparable to Kageyama and others by using a running start (though he sometimes fails because he gets too much momentum). He trusts Kageyama's tosses completely, diving into spots where there are no blockers without looking at the toss at all, and spikes with his eyes closed in a miraculous quick attack. It is said to be so fast that it's difficult for opponents to react, let alone block. This lethal combination draws the attention of the opposing blockers, leaving other players free, which is why he is called "The Ultimate Decoy." How others call him: Hinata - Kageyama, Sawamura, Tsukishima, etc. Hinata-kun - Takeda Shoyo - Nishinoya, Sekimukai, Kozume Chibi-chan - Oikawa, Kuroo Sho-chan - Izumi, Ogasawara Shoyo Hinata - Ushijima, Aone, Hoshiumi - His phone ringtone is "De-den-den-de-den." - His name was given with the imagery of "Sun" and "Flying." How he calls others: Tsukishima-no-yaro (That bastard Tsukishima), Tsukishima - Kei Tsukishima Kageyama - Tobio Kageyama Suga-san - Koshi Sugawara Noya-san - Yu Nishinoya Tanaka-senpai - Ryunosuke Tanaka Asahi-senpai - Asahi Azumane Kenma - Kenma Kozume Sawamura-senpai - Daichi Sawamura Yachi-san - Hitoka Yachi - Hinata has high communication skills and a reckless, head-on personality where he says what's on his mind immediately. Because he honestly praises anyone he thinks is amazing—whether they are allies or rivals—he quickly hits it off and becomes friends with everyone except cynical people like Tsukishima. Though he often gets carried away, Hinata interacts with older students without hesitation and sometimes worms his way into the hearts of other schools' directors and coaches. He is on good terms with various types of people, such as Nekoma's setter Kozume and Fukurodani's Bokuto, and often receives hints for his own growth from them.
