Top 10 Characters in Haikyu Anime – Part One
The anime Haikyuu is known by many fans of Japanese cartoons around the world, even those who do not delve into this field, as it has an unparalleled fame and many in the industry attest to its success and strength.
This sports anime has a huge popularity among fans of this genre, and is also distinguished by its multiple seasons, through which it presents many exciting matches and confrontations that grip viewers from start to finish.
It is certain that anime lovers have enjoyed watching their favorite teams’ matches in volleyball courts, whether victories or losses, but the characters in the series are the ones who truly stole hearts, as this anime has a good number of deep and impactful characters.
So today in the Top 10 series of articles, we will talk about the best 10 characters in Haikyuu, and the ones closest to the hearts of its fans, according to the ranking of users on MyAnimeList .
Character Keiji Akaashi
Akaashi has always been a calm person as the deputy leader of his team, even during confrontations and difficult situations, as he always maintains his composure and his ability to work under pressure without being affected by his surroundings in a way that affects his decisions.
He also has good manners and addresses his teammates with great respect, partly because most of his teammates on the team were older than him.
But he always makes fun of others who do silly things, especially when it comes to his friend Bokuto, and he can also sometimes be very straightforward and sarcastic in his comments in front of others.
Character Koushi Sugawara
Koushi Sugawara is characterized by his gentle and kind nature, and he has always been called “the mother” in his volleyball team because of his great care and affection towards his team, ensuring that they have everything they need and always taking care of them.
He often resolves disputes, competitions, and rivalries among his teammates in a fast manner, thus earning him the nickname of “the glue” that keeps his team connected as a cooperative unit in everything.
He was also beloved by anime fans because of his distinctive and wonderful situations, his stability, and his great endurance and his never giving up attitude when facing difficult situations, which often reflected on his teammates, inspiring them with the same level of resilience and fighting spirit in the face of challenging confrontations they encountered in their lives.
Character Koutarou Bokuto
Koutarou Bokuto is characterized by his friendly and somewhat childish personality, which made his team director Yukie call him the boy with limited thoughts, which increased his fragile mood that is affected by the smallest and simplest reasons, thus maintaining this rule or his small, humorous negative reputation in front of many.
In fact, this was not limited to his relationships, as his playing style is also influenced by such small things, offering some funny scenes that made him beloved by his colleagues, opponents, and of course the viewers who always find him entertaining.
Character Tetsurou Kuroo
Tetsurou Kuroo always enjoys provoking others on the field, to the extent that he became known for targeting other players with his excessively derogatory and exaggerated statements, and some even called him the “provocation expert”.
His provocative style has had a strong influence on the most powerful people in the character Kei Tsukishima who usually is not affected by what is happening around him or what others say about him, but despite Tetsurou Kuroo’s provocative personality, he usually apologizes whenever he thinks he is wronging others, as he did with Daichi when he crossed the boundaries, making him a good person in the eyes of many, especially Haikyuu’s followers and fans.
Character Kei Tsukishima
Kei Tsukishima did not initially gain much popularity among his team members and their fans due to his arrogant attitudes and somewhat aggressive behavior towards his teammates continuously, in addition to showing great happiness and joy in subjugating his opponents and humiliating them.
But his rough behavior and aggression have a valid reason, as it stems from his low self-esteem, which he managed to work on and overcome as the events of the anime progressed and as he neared the end of its events.
In conclusion … Today, we talked about 5 of the best characters in the anime Haikyuu and the ones closest to the hearts of its fans, including the character Keiji Akaashi, the team’s deputy known for his calmness and control of his nerves in difficult situations, as well as surprising viewers with his comments in a surprising manner sometimes,
and also Koushi Sugawara who is known for connecting his team together and ending their internal disputes and conflicts in a way full of emotion and love, and for being the person who never gives up when he sets a goal in front of him, as we spoke about more unique characters in the Haikyuu anime, and we will continue talking about the rest in the second part of the article very soon.
