personality

Kenma has a relaxed and calm personality. He rarely loses his temper, and usually doesn't get excited about anything (except for Hinata and video games; he was seen half angry at a new player on his team Haiba Lev, due to his lack of practice and coordination). He is quiet and reserved and almost never expresses his opinions because he is afraid of how others will take them. He is not the type who can make friends easily and his only friend had been Tetsurō Kuroo, his next-door neighbor. Despite his modest personality, Kenma is quite adept at volleyball, with his extraordinary sense of play and technique helping to compensate for his lack of power and other physical abilities. Kenma has stated on several occasions that he doesn't find video games or volleyball fun, it's just a way to kill time; although it really may be that he does like it. Kuroo has called him the brain of the team, because the point guard is the one who, as his name indicates, puts together the play. Although it is also due to his intelligence and ability to put together tactics, earning his position well. However, he has also called it the heart, also referring to its position, since the heart is the one that connects with the veins allowing blood to flow.

History

When Kenma was younger, he was shy and couldn't make friends on his own. His only friend at the time was Kuroo, who was about his age and lived next door. Although the two apparently had little in common other than their age, they spent a lot of time together, which at first consisted mainly of playing video games. Then one day, Kenma asked Kuroo if he had something in mind that he wanted to play. Kuroo was shy, but excited, when he introduced Kenma to volleyball. Although Kenma didn't like sports at the time, he discovered that volleyball was fun and he especially enjoyed watching games on discs that Kuroo had. Eventually, Kuroo convinced him to come with him to a practice session and even convinced him to be a setter by telling him about the setter position that seemed to fit well with a tactician like Kenma and also didn't require much movement. although Kenma would later learn that this was not entirely true. Later, Kenma joined the high school volleyball club, where he received the number 4 on the team. When he joined the boys' volleyball team in high school, Kenma thought about quitting at first due to the awkward relationship he had with the third years at the time. They often left him out specifically and made him run longer than the other members. However, Kuroo convinced him otherwise by reminding Kenma how amazing he is and that Coach Nekomata would soon return to the team. Around his time as a freshman, he also encountered Yamamoto and quickly became annoyed by his overzealous behavior and his constant talk about "willpower". Yamamoto himself was upset with Kenma for being good despite his lack of passion or enthusiasm. At one point, Kenma noticed that Yamamoto was feeling depressed about his performance during a practice match in which he hit many stray serves and, due to advice

history x2

due to Kuroo's advice about making more of an effort to get along with others, he gave Yamamoto advice that soon turned into a clash of ideologies; which caused Kenma to scream for the first time in a long time and ended with Fukunaga splashing water on both of them to prevent the fight from escalating. Later, Yamamoto realized that while Kenma is a "lazy sloth", he hates losing, and during a match against another school, he was grateful that his analytical prowess was on Nekoma's side. Yamamoto then told Kenma to call him "Tora" as a sign of friendship, to which Kenma responded with "Do I have to?" but he occasionally calls him by this name. Skills -Ball control: As a setter, Kenma has superior ball control. He can set up with clean form and minimal movement, making it difficult for opposing blockers to read his intentions. Additionally, he has demonstrated the ability to match his throw with an attacker even on short notice, as seen when he accurately responds to Lev's improvised wide attack.
