Captain Squad Headcanons
Warning: LONG post.
They all hang out on Skype the most because y'know...different prefectures lol.
The Miyagi captains see each other a lot tho!
The current second-year captains especially exchange advice a lot since they're newest to it.
Shibuya (Tokonami Captain; I'm just guessing here): Guys I think I accidentally started a disagreement between the first-years and I feel really bad about it, what do I do?
Futakuchi (Date Tech Captain): Look, I start 90% of the fights on my team so...
Towada (Ougiminami Captain): Our team just settles it in a death match.
Terushima (Johzenji Captain): We don't really fight per say, the gym just accidentally gets set on fire on occasion.
Komaki (Kakugawa Captain): Why do I feel like I'm the only one who actually has it semi-together?
Fr tho all the captains envy Komaki so much because his team is literally the only decently-sane one among them.
Like the biggest problem he has to deal with other than teens being teens is Asamushi getting too fired up sometimes and Hyakuzawa accidentally hitting his head on doorways.
As for dynamics among them...
There is a mutual agreement to keep Kuroo and Daishou separated at all times because the power of petty exes is too much for them (Iizuna is in charge of making sure they're at least 6 feet apart when possible).
The ONLY time those two have ever agreed on something was when some asshole started insulting their first-years.
The guy still gets nightmares about it.
Oikawa and Ushijima are also kept apart most times, though Oikawa's getting better at understanding him while Ushijima is starting to get why Oikawa feels the way he does.
They like to bitch about their fellow year-mates too.
Daichi complains about Suga's chaoticness and Asahi's timidness.
Kuroo complains about Yaku at any opportunity (though rarely Kai).
Oikawa loudly whines about the "disrespect" he endures from all the third-years (barring Yuda, the one who was crying with pride for all of them).
Daishou is fed up with how unhelpful his third-years are when it comes to any life advice (he doesn't have it together, but nobody else does either, sooo).
Bokuto likes to join Oikawa in his protest against "cruelty against captains"; the one he complains most about is Konoha, but the rest of them are still talked about very frequently.
Nakashima always follows up his complaints with something positive about them. Daichi is both jealous and in awe of this (little does he know it's a technique developed to stop Takeru from decking his siblings sometimes).
Ushijima doesn't like to complain about his teammates much bc he doesn't really see the point when you could just tell them they're being annoying dicks.
Iizuna's complaints usually aren't too bad and far between, but on days when Itachiyama loses practice matches due to the team's attitude...whoo boy.
Suwa is like...so calm? And his complaints are always so minor? And always with a completely patient expression? And the captains are so confused in the beginning because their only prior personal experience with Kamomedai is the few Hoshiumi interviews people manage to get and that kid sure as hell isn't this calm.
And then one day Nozawa is making provocations worthy of Futakuchi and he comes in complaining and everyone's just like there it is.
Echigo's pretty chill too, since Tsubakihara isn't a particularly rambunctious team, but some days Teradomari gets completely slandered for the dumbass moves he pulls during practice on occasion (he's trying to show off to the underclassmen; spoilers, it's not working, but Himekawa politely claps for him at least).
Kiryuu always feels really bad about venting even when it's clear he needs to (he was the one who put in the "no insulting the second or first years" rule since he felt it was unfair to the underclassmen), but he's getting better.
Him and Oikawa trade mental health tips sometimes.
The previous captains like to drop in sometimes.
It's canonical that the Date Tech third-years can't leave their underclassmen alone, so they show up most often.
The two Komakis confuse everyone to no end.
Ikejiri and Komaki H (Tokonami's old captain) show up the most for their team.
Ikejiri is delighted to catch up with Daichi (they start having monthly catch-up sessions with Yui too at one point).
Okudake and Akimiya drop by sometimes to make sure their second-years haven't convinced anyone to commit major arson or join a gang.
Moniwa, Okudake and Akimiya are highly respected by everyone for dealing with the hazardous sassy disasters known as the Date Tech, Johzenji and Ougiminami second-years.

How come in Haikyuu not a single character is canonically neurodivergent and yet has better representation of neurodivergence than stories that are supposed to have it
Bokuto? One of the few characters I’ve seen that checks off a wide range of adhd symptoms instead of just “can’t pay attention and impulsive”
Ushijima and Tendou? Now that’s some beautiful autistic 🤝 autistic solidarity
Kageyama and Hinata? Autistic 🤝 adhd solidarity
Yamaguchi? Literally is shown using a technique to calm himself down, boy has anxiety. I can’t really place Tsukishima but that boy is not neurotypical
Kenma? Does he have anxiety or is he autistic? Maybe both
Kita? Lives for routine, seems to always need to have reasons for things, quiet and observant? Seems pretty neurodivergent to me
Atsumu? idk man he just has the vibes. Osamu too. Lev also has ~vibes~ I can’t quite place
Yachi? A nervous wreck who’s always catastrophizing and seems constantly amazed that she’s found a group she belongs in? Well damn if that’s not my experience with my own anxiety
I could give an essay on each of these characters and more man, I love them

Just your daily reminder that:
Kuroo Tetsurou is passionate.
Kai Nobuyuki is patient.
Yaku Morisuke is confident.
Yamamoto Taketora is self-aware.
Kozume Kenma is perceptive.
Fukunaga Shouhei is reliable.
Inuoka Sou is hard-working.
Teshiro Tamahiko is logical.
Haiba Lev is ambitious.
Shibayama Yuuki is kind.
There is no trick here, because:
Nekoma is a wonderful, loving, deeply-connected family.

Atsumu: Anything you say in the next thirty seconds is completely free, starting right now.
Sakusa: I think you’re cocky. Arrogant. Bossy and pushy. You also have a god complex and don’t think of anybody but yourself.
Atsumu: But—
Sakusa: Wait, I still have twenty-three seconds and I’m not done.

What I'm most excited about getting animated in season 5 of Haikyuu (spoilers):
- Inuoka and Lev blocking together! It's such a good moment because up until now it's only ever been one or the other against Hinata, but now they've both gone through development and get to try and fulfill their promises that they're going to be the first ones to completely shut down the freak quick!
We also get to see what happened with Inuoka and how he was feeling after having to switch positions (disappointed obviously, but I like the opportunity to explore where he might thrive elsewhere if he doesn't become an MB again, since it's left ambiguous). I also love how there's no hard feelings between him and Lev just like many others who had their positions taken (and Lev's development in the Spring High qualifiers about 'not wanting to ruin the connection' also makes it feel like he was actively thinking about that fact too imo), and I think it was also a great opportunity for him to expand his skillset!
This is probably an unpopular opinion, but as much as I adored Inuoka before, I loved him much more AFTER these revelations, since before he just...didn't really get to have that much development other than "sunshine child" (which he still is ofc). I think by putting him in this position, the story actively avoided making him "tall Hinata with a few differences" (like it successfully did with Lev as well), and instead made him a compelling character in my eyes.
I know some consider it wasted potential, but I actually think it's the opposite; it made him a unique character with a "replacement" arc we hadn't seen before, and I love thinking about the possibilities for next year's Nekoma: either you get two terrifying MB's constantly coming on and off the court, or you get a terrifying MB and WS that can both shut you down together. Both are great for our cats!
Also, quick side note that literally has almost nothing to do with this whole plot-point, but I love the friendship they both have with Shibayama! It's so wholesome!
- TESHIRO TAMAHIKO BABY HELL YES
- Nekoma in general

Kuroo: What are you doing back so early?
Lev: I lost track of Yaku-san.
Kuroo: How do you LOSE Yakkun?
Lev: In my defense, he is very small.
Yaku, from a distance: FUCK YOU.
Lev: There he is.
