Although Karasuno High takes centre stage for the entirety of the series, Haikyuu!! is just as much about the home team’s relationships as it is about their rivals’. Aside from the major Karasuno members, several more players from the opposing teams play an important role throughout the series. The mighty Kage-Hina combo meet a lot of friends and opponents (mostly friends) throughout their adventure, which makes for a long list.
Outside of Karasuno, long-time Haikyuu!! fans have demonstrated great affection for the whole cast, praising each and every one of them for their distinct personalities and playstyles. Here are all the profiles of the key characters in Haikyuu!! for any committed fans or newcomers wishing to get into the series.

Shoyo Hinata:
Hinata, the series’ primary heroine, is a cheerful, optimistic, and diligent member of the Karasuno squad. He may be on the shorter side (in volleyball terms), but that doesn’t stop him from dreaming big and presenting a real danger to rival teams.
From suffering with his rivalry with Tobio Kageyama, a previous opponent, to working side by side with him and functioning as Karasuno’s power combo, Hinata has evolved immensely over the series.
Tobio Kageyama:
Kageyama, Hinata’s companion in crime and the series’ deuteragonist, is an important character in the tale since he plays a significant role in Hinata’s (and his own) personal development.
Kageyama and Hinata serve as foils for one another, but they nevertheless manage to strengthen each other. While Kageyama was first viewed as a selfish “King Of The Court” who didn’t understand collaboration, he evolved and matured during the series and his time working with Hinata.
Kageyama, who was formerly selfish and frigid, finally matured into a team player.
Daichi Sawamura
Daichi, a third-year and Team Captain, is frequently referred to be the group’s “father” since he is always left to deal with the quarrels and antics of the younger members. Daichi is Karasuno’s backbone; without him, the group would lose drive and direction.
He is by far one of Karasuno’s more mature members, and he is aware of the need of remaining calm under pressure, even if just to reassure the rest of his team.
Koshi Sugawara
Suga is the team’s strict but fair mother figure, while Team Captain Daichi is frequently considered as Karasuno’s father figure. Suga is a caring upperclassman who soothes the other members when they are upset, but he also makes sure to chastise them when they are wrong.
Sugawara is a setter as well as Karasuno’s Vice-Captain. Don’t be fooled by Suga’s kind demeanour; when an essential lesson has to be learnt, he isn’t shy about reprimanding his own comrades.
Asahi Azumane
Despite the fact that Asahi is the team’s ace and is a towering six feet tall, he is far less intimidating than he appears.
While he is taunted by his peers for having a “scary” look, he is exceedingly compassionate and wouldn’t hurt a fly. Despite being a third-year with greater experience, this gentle giant is surprisingly sensitive and often allows the stress and/or guilt of a match’s outcome weigh on his shoulders.
Despite the fact that Suga and Daichi are his age, Asahi is frequently chastised by the two for his lack of confidence in his ability.
Yu Nishinoya
While height might be an advantage in volleyball, Noya, a second-year, is proof that even the smallest athletes can have their moment to shine. Noya is the libero for the Karasuno squad, and he makes use of his height. While taller athletes are better at spiking and blocking, Noya excels in quickness.
Karasuno’s defense is a force to be reckoned with because of Noya’s libero ability. Despite being the team’s shortest member (just a few centimeters below Hinata), Noya contributes just as much as the others.
Ryunosuke Tanaka
Tanaka, a second-year wing spiker, is a fantastic role model for his younger colleagues. Tanaka is frequently seen mentoring Hinata and Kageyama, as well as keeping Tsukki and Yamaguchi in line and breaking up fights.
Tanaka is a compassionate person who actually cares about treating his teammates well and taking excellent care of his underclassmen, despite his best efforts to come off as scary and tough.
Tanaka, on the other hand, appears to be an entirely different guy on the court. Tanaka may have a kind heart, but when it comes to competing against his opponents, he’s fiercely competitive and self-centered.
Kei Tsukishima
Tsukki, a first-year middle blocker, began his time on Karasuno as a frigid and unpleasant teammate. Tsukki’s personal improvement during the series was crucial to the team’s general cohesion, despite the fact that he still has a ways to go.
Tsukki began as a chilly and distant individual who participated in team activities but lacked the same desire and motivation as the other team members.
Tsukki eventually had his big moment, when he understood how much the game and his friends meant to him.
Tadashi Yamaguchi
Despite his proclivity for cracking under duress, Yamaguchi is Karasuno’s pinch server. Yamaguchi is Tsukki’s best friend and a first-year student. Yamaguchi’s determination was what drew Tsukki back in as the team’s chemistry began to falter.
Yamaguchi was introduced as an anxious guy who didn’t do well under pressure, which was just when the squad needed him the most. Yamaguchi finally conquered his fears and learned how to manage pressure like a pro with the aid of his teammates and their encouragement.
Ittetsu Takeda
Mr. Takeda, although not being the most experienced head coach, was instrumental in the start of Karasuno’s voyage. Mr. Takeda, the faculty advisor, is a quiet man.
Due to his lack of volleyball expertise, he hired (after considerable convincing) Keishin Ukai to undertake the majority of the actual coaching, leaving Takeda to organise the team’s matches against other schools.
While Takeda may not always take a hands-on approach with the team, he always makes an effort to assist with team chemistry and strategy.
Keishin Ukai
The Karasuno volleyball team is coached by Keishin Ukai, who is a skilled coach. Ukai originally declined the role of the coach due to his status as a Karasuno graduate, as he was adamant about maintaining his time at Karasuno as a “pleasant reminiscence.” After repeated attempts by Takeda, Ukai ultimately succumbed to his pleadings and accepted the role of Karasuno’s Coach.
Coach Ukai, who was a setter for his high school team, draws on his years of expertise while instructing and coaching his squad.
Tetsuro Kuroo
Kuroo, Nekoma’s fearless captain, also plays middle blocker for the squad. He’s also dubbed the “scheming skipper.” Kuroo’s involvement in the series was crucial to Tsukki’s development. Despite the fact that they attended different schools, Kuroo took it upon himself to practice with Tsukki (along with other members of the opposing squad) and assist Tsukki in better understanding himself and the sport.
While immature at times, he takes his role as captain seriously and is frequently seen reprimanding others or ensuring that fellow teammate Kenma does not become too engrossed in his video games during practice.
Kenma Kozume
Kenma may be soft-spoken, but that doesn’t mean he’s not a force to be reckoned with on the volleyball field. Kenma is known as the squad’s “brain” and is in charge of keeping the team together and deciphering any opponent team’s flaws. Kenma’s teammates are often noisy and active, which makes him stand out easily.
While he adores volleyball, he also enjoys video games, and team captain Kuroo continually reminds him to concentrate.
Toru Oikawa
Even though Oikawa is a third-year and the captain of Aoba Johsai, he continues his historic feud with Karasuno’s first-year, (and fellow setter) Kageyama. During the series’ early arcs, Oikawa was one of the primary antagonists.
Oikawa may appear haughty and proud, but when it comes to the team’s best interests, he’ll always do the right thing. Many other teams, on the other hand, don’t see this side of him and give him nicknames like “Trashykawa” or “Crappykawa.”
Hajime Iwaizumi
Iwaizumi, Oikawa’s partner and vice-captain, is a third-year student at Aoba Johsai High. Iwaizumi and Oikawa’s chemistry didn’t develop overnight; the two owe their on-court chemistry to a lengthy childhood connection. Aoba Johsai’s ace, vice-captain, and wing spiker, Iwaizumi is a triple threat.
Iwaizumi frequently serves as a contrast to Oikawa, offering him assistance or calling him out on his juvenile conduct. Aoba Johsai’s greatest qualities are brought out by the two of them working together.
Takanobu Aone
Date Tech’s infamous “Iron Wall” is more commonly known as Aone. Aone is a second-year and acts as the main pillar of his team’s line of defense, standing tall as a six-foot-tall middle blocker. However, don’t be fooled by Aone’s cold and intimidating outward appearance; he’s actually quite kind.
Aone has shown on multiple occasions that he is one of the more mild-tempered members on his team and is even the one to break up any fights or arguments as he dislikes conflict among his friends.
Kanji Koganegawa
Date Tech’s setter is Koganegawa, a first-year student. Aone is practically the polar opposite of Koganegawa. Koganegawa is brash and impulsive, preferring to act first and consider afterward. While he is eager to enhance his talents for the sake of himself and his team, he is frequently misled and seeks to improve in the incorrect areas.
While Koganegawa’s partner Aone is quiet and soft-spoken, Koganegawa is the polar opposite. He is extroverted and frequently befriends players from other teams.
Kotaro Bokuto
Third-year Bokuto, who has been compared to an owl, is the ace and captain of Fukurodani’s volleyball squad. Bokuto was initially launched as one of the country’s top five aces. Bokuto is a great player on the court, but he is also highly fickle and prone to letting his emotions get the best of him, particularly in difficult circumstances.
This causes some confusion in Fukurodani, but fortunately, Bokuto has his closest buddy, Akaashi, to help him stay cool and level-headed so that he can get back into the game and dominate the opposing team.
Keiji Akaashi
Fukurodani’s intelligent second-year vice-captain and setter is Akaashi. Most of the time, Akaashi is quite quiet, and he is typically in charge of keeping team captain Bokuto in line when he is confused or disheartened.
While Akaashi makes an effort to call Bokuto out on his childish actions and enable him to learn lessons on his own, it appears that Akaashi succumbs to Bokuto’s immature conduct and continues to lavish praise on him from his teammates.
Wakatoshi Ushijima
Ushijima is the captain and ace of the Shiratorizawa volleyball squad in his third year. During the arc in which Karasuno was pitted against his crew, he was the major adversary. Ushijima is a frigid person who comes across as far too harsh for his own good, making others feel uncomfortable.
Unsurprisingly, Ushijima has a proclivity for literal interpretation, making him tough to befriend and joke about. Ushijima is a very sensible person who dislikes those who exude irrational confidence or optimism.
Satori Tendo
Shiratorizawa’s third-year middle blocker is Tendo. Others have dubbed him “Guess Monster” because of his uncanny ability to continually deny opponents with his court blocks. Tendo is an entirely different guy when he is not on the court.
While he is boisterous and enthusiastic off the court, frequently seen harassing his teammates for fun, he is a completely different person while he is playing.
Tendo has the capacity to focus all of his efforts on reading his opponents and hone down on the game. Tendo’s meeting with Hinata was significant because he discovered that his ability to read opponents was a skill that Hinata possessed as well.
Yuji Terushima
Terushima is the captain of Johsenji High’s volleyball squad. He is a second-year student with a lot of energy. He frequently behaves juvenile and does not take things seriously, claiming that his spot on the squad was merely for fun and that he does not actually care about the sport or improving.
Terushima, on the other hand, came to see things differently following his brush with Karasuno High, and realised that triumph was far more fulfilling after pouring one’s heart into the sport.
Atsumu Miya
Atsumu is the starting setter for Inarizaki High’s volleyball team for the second year. Atsumu is a cunning individual who likes irritating others while maintaining a calm demeanour in order to enrage them even more. Atsumu is also a strong and hardheaded individual who rarely listens to others.
While Atsumu likes teasing people and getting the best of them, he nevertheless devotes his entire attention to volleyball and takes his role on the team extremely seriously.
Osamu Miya
Atsumu’s twin brother, Osamu, is a second-year wing spiker for the Inarizaki squad. Osamu, unlike his brother Atsumu, is not a hothead and is really laid back. Despite his placid appearance, Osamu, like his twin brother, takes his position on the squad extremely seriously and may be too competitive at times.
Osamu and Atsumu frequently (and sometimes unwittingly) collaborate to improve each other’s talents and the team’s overall performance.
Despite his commitment to Inarizaki, Osamu’s second interest is food, and he is frequently distracted by it even on the court.
Aran Ojiro
Aran is a third-year student at Inarizaki High School and a wing spiker for the volleyball team. Aran, like Bokuto, was one of Japan’s best aces. Aran, unlike some of his teammates, is a very mature and level-headed individual.
He’s typically the “straight guy” to the rest of the Inarizaki’s pranks, calling them out on their stupidity.
Aran has known the Miya twins since they were little and has gotten accustomed to their mischievous antics.
Shinsuke Kita
Kita is the captain and wing spiker for the volleyball team at Inarizaki High. Kita is a third-year student who has a reputation for being forthright. While Kita’s chilly attitude makes him appear scary, he is actually a genuinely kind-hearted guy on the inside.
Kita takes his role as captain very seriously, and he makes it a point to look after his comrades at all times, especially when they are unwell.
Rintaro Suna
Suna is Inarizaki’s quiet second-year middle blocker. Suna’s visage is commonly seen with a frigid, deadpan look. Suna, on the other hand, likes observing minor rivalries among his colleagues. Suna is a methodical individual who typically takes the time to properly evaluate each issue, while being a bit of a slacker.
Suna is an expert at reading other players and figuring out their playstyles so that he and his teammates can anticipate their moves.
Kiyoomi Sakusa
Sakusa is Itachiyama Institute’s ace and wing-spiker. Sakusa was also selected one of the country’s best aces, which is especially noteworthy since he is only a second-year student.
Sakusa is a calm and collected person who always takes the time to examine each circumstance before making the right decision.
On the court, he is a cautious player who is nonetheless very competitive.
Sakusa is also renowned for being a germaphobe and a perfectionist.
