Haikyuu!! KageHina Fanfiction: In the Name of Volleyball

A note up front: I’m writing this purely for love of it. If you think it’s good, feel free to tip me to show your support. If you don’t like it, I don’t want to hear about it...

After finishing the manga, I felt strangely empty. Watching the Little Giant grow from a complete novice into a powerful opposite hitter in the pro league was incredibly moving...

The chapter that hit me hardest was the one where the Little Giant practiced beach volleyball all by himself in Brazil.

Alone in a foreign country, practicing volleyball and working part-time, he lost the wallet containing the money his little sister Natsu had given him, had no money for food, and his roommate was cold toward him...

The loneliness sank deep into his bones. Late one night, unable to bear it, he went outside to play volleyball alone. When he saw the King, he couldn’t help crying...

In the end, even if we loved something as students, we don’t necessarily pursue it as adults. Life can be so full of twists and turns.

Main story (romance and passionate sports action interwoven):

Kageyama Tobio heads to Italy to pursue his dream in the professional league, while Hinata Shoyo stays in Japan to hone his skills in the V.League.

The two face off across the net at an international match.

The understanding they once shared as teammates turns into a fierce rivalry on the court.

After the match, Kageyama unexpectedly discovers that Hinata is pushing through an old injury to keep training. He immediately postpones his return and accompanies Hinata through his recovery as a “temporary rehabilitation coach.”

As they spend day after day together during rehabilitation, the two reassess their relationship amid a constant push and pull.

Just as Hinata recovers and returns to the court, Kageyama finds himself at an impasse with his club over differences in tactical philosophy, hitting a career roadblock.
