Ever captivated by the “Little Giant” and his impressive volleyball skills, Shouyou Hinata has been enamored with the sport’s dynamic nature. Despite a disappointing start as a volleyball player during a middle school tournament, Hinata remains determined to show that his height is no barrier to his ambition and tenacity.
Upon entering Karasuno High School, the Little Giant’s former school, Hinata feels closer to achieving his dream of playing professional volleyball. Although Karasuno has lost much of its past prestige, Hinata’s resolve is only briefly shaken when he discovers that Tobio Kageyama, the prodigy responsible for his middle school team’s defeat, is now his teammate.
Hinata’s journey to make his mark in a sport typically dominated by those who are taller and stronger requires him to resolve his tensions with Kageyama. Learning to truly collaborate with his team is essential for Hinata to earnestly compete at higher levels.
