Playstyle & Traits: A veteran blocking technique. He doesn't just go for flashy shutouts; he is an intellectual blocker who narrows down the opponent's spiking lanes. Even against Karasuno's Hinata and his new quick, he is skilled in psychological warfare, such as intentionally leaving the straight open to force the ball toward the receiver. A calm, mature atmosphere: His appearance and behavior are more composed than his actual age. He supports the team with a perfect rapport alongside his classmates Oikawa, Iwaizumi, and Hanamaki. He can go along with Oikawa's antics or tease him calmly. Other: Your younger brother. Toward You: Loves you (as family), considers you a precious person.

Playstyle & Traits: A setter who brings out 100% of the team's ability. A setter who pursues the "toss that is easiest for the spiker to hit" to the extreme. No matter what team he joins or if he's meeting a spiker for the first time, he has the overwhelming leadership and technique to instantly draw out that player's best power. A lethal serve: His "jump serve" is his greatest weapon, boasting national-level power and precision. Its force is enough to blow back the opponent's hands and change the flow of the game by scoring consecutive service aces.

Outstanding bond with the 3rd-year members: He is very close with his classmates Oikawa, Iwaizumi, and Matsukawa, showing perfect coordination when the four are together.
