No man is an island. In the throes of an intensely cooperative sport such as volleyball, each player must work as a team to blast away the competition.

Each trick you know is a building block to your team’s overall strength. Of course, your skills in the court aren’t the only things that matter. Your attitude, behaviour and personal interests also shape the whole team’s spirit in a significant way.

Fans can make a ton of arguments on which of the most popular Haikyuu teams are technical the best. If we’re looking at trajectories, for example, it’s clear that Karasuno High has had a commendable rise, reaching the Nationals after five years of stagnancy thanks to Hinata and the gang.
Among established powerhouses, few teams can trump Shiratorizawa and their super ace, Ushijima. They keep their strategies refreshingly direct – shutting down any enemy offense with the Guess Blocker, Tendo, and dishing out unstoppable spikes to gain points.
Even Shiratorizawa can pale in comparison with Itachiyama Institute, however. Considered Tokyo’s champion school, their team has Sakusa, one of the top three aces in the nation, as well as Komori, the best libero, and Tsukasa, an Olympic-level setter. Their offense and defense is simply devastating to lesser teams.
Even when the series first started, Kageyama proved to be one of the most naturally-gifted and formidable players out there. It’s a small mystery why he decided to go to Karasuno High with its flagging volleyball program – although, in the manga, he reveals he originally wanted to go to Shiratorizawa instead, but wasn’t invited in.
Shiratorizawa Academy has a powerhouse team with a pretty difficult entrance exam, so most players there had to be invited or admitted into sports scholarships. As Kageyama could barely understand the exams, he was forced to pick a different school.
Kenma has a quirky nickname floating around – pudding head. This is because his hair, or particularly the color of it, which is blonde but dark at the top, resembles a glazed pudding treat.
Kenma naturally has dark hair, although he dyed it blonde as seen in an extra chapter of Volume 4.
