Hinata arrives at his new school Karasuno High School (The same school where "The Little Giant" used to attend) determined to join the volleyball club and defeat Kageyama. He is shocked when he walks into the gym and finds Kageyama who is also the new member of the team. The two personalities clash, and later captain Daichi Sawamura arrives he throws the two out and tells them they can't join the club until they start to get along. A few days pass and the two get envious. Instead of agreeing to work as a team though, they challenge the 3rd years to a match on the condition if they win, they join the team. If they lose, as long as the third years are around, Kageyama will never play as setter.
