About
The story
Reserved and passionate about video games, Kenma Kozume started playing volleyball under the influence of his childhood friend Tetsuro Kuroo. Not particularly drawn to physical exertion or the attention of others, he nevertheless remained on the Nekoma team and became their starting setter. His observation skills, memory, and ability to anticipate opposing reactions made him the true brains of the Cats. Kenma patiently orchestrated rallies to exhaust or trap the opposing team, while his teammates compensated for his limited stamina.
During a practice against Karasuno, Kenma meets Shoyo Hinata, whose enthusiasm and unpredictability pique his curiosity. Their rivalry gives a personal purpose to the traditional "dumpster battle" between Nekoma and Karasuno. At the national championships, Kenma devises a strategy to deprive Hinata of her momentum, but the confrontation also ultimately helps him recognize the joy of the game. After high school, he becomes a professional gamer, content creator, and runs his own company, all while financially supporting Hinata's career.
