After he graduated from Yukigaoka Junior High, he joined the volleyball club and was the only one. Hinata was determined to keep practicing and would either practice alone in the gymnasium or with others on the other side of the sports field.
Hinata Shoyo became nervous after seeing their opponent and ran to the toilet. He heard some second-years of Kitagawa Daiichi hurling abuse at his team. He clearly spoke back, only to be ridiculed because of his size. Tobio Kageyama (Kitagawa’s King of the Court), appeared to mock his team for looking down upon their opponents. He continued his tirades by turning to Hinata. Kageyama criticized Hinata’s inability to jump and his stupid determination to win despite that.
