happy 29th birthday to Kanji Koganegawa also know as Big-Boned setter and, The New Iron Wall. Koganegawa is very energetic and enthusiastic but often lacks the ability to think carefully about his actions. Despite being rather simpleminded, he's also shown to be determined to improve his abilities and support his team as their setter with his height but tends to focus on improving the wrong areas. He is friendly toward others and is quite sociable, as he easily approached others during the First-Year Training Camp and was not afraid to approach Kageyama and ask for tips after their practice match.

Kanji Koganegawa Quotes: "As a setter, I may still be 'about the same as an infant', but right now, the one thing I have that's on the same level as my senpai is height!!"

"I'm gonna make sure I can toss any kind of ball...!! And I'm gonna be able to stop anybody with my blocks, no matter how powerful or tall they are, so that I don't embarrass the name of the Iron Wall...!!"

Happy 31st Birthday to Shinsuke KIta Aka Mister Perfect Kita,Kita has a very blunt way of speaking, similar to Ushijima, where he doesn't sugarcoat his words when voicing his opinion. Because of this, his teammates are often afraid to be on the receiving end of Kita's cold logic. Kita has a very mature way of thinking, saying that he tends to agree more with adults than his underclassmen, and goes as far as to have a logical reason for feeling happy and has stated that he does not understand the reason for being nervous.

Despite his outward demeanor, Kita cares a lot about his teammates. When Atsumu catches a cold, Kita tells Atsumu to go home to rest while also scolding Ginjima for praising Atsumu for not taking care of his health by continuing to practice.

"Listen guys, you don't have to be that guarded. I'm just a substitute. I'm here to tide them [Inarizaki] over. So you don't need to be scared of me."

 "The kind of monsters who love volleyball day after day. We meet them, stand on the same court as them, and battle against them, with a net between us. I'm like a mortal who's stumbled upon a monster's banquet. Lucky me."

 "Now that we're here, I'm wishin' I had more chances to brag about you all... showin' off to everybody how amazing all my teammates are."

Happy 31st Birthday to suguru Daishou aka Cheater and Snake Bastard (by Kuroo)

Suguru is a competitive person who enjoys mocking others, especially the members of Nekoma. However, he gets flustered and emotional when he is mocked in return, such as when Kuroo brought up his ex-girlfriend.

He is a cunning, manipulative person who uses a polite façade during matches to win the referee's favor; he would admit to net-touches and apologize loudly to bolster Nohebi's reputation, but use somewhat underhand tactics without the audience knowing, such as purposely spiking a ball at an opponent's face and using the referee's influence to get away with spikes that were originally in to be called out when blocking their view. During the match, he shows composure in analyzing the situation of the match, which is pointed out by the Nohebi coach.

 "'Always have'. As in high-level defensive intensity and impeccable teamwork, along with a lack of ability to consistently put up points and close out matches. That's Nekoma-chan for you."

"Our team and Nekoma are birds of a feather... We 'persevere' and refuse to give in."

 "In a game, nothing is certain. It all boils down to... creating favorable winds for yourself."

Happy 29th birthday to Shoyo HinataThe Strongest/Ultimate Decoy, Number One Shortie (by Tanaka) Chibi-chan, Small fry (by Kuroo, Yaku, Oikawa, Bokuto, Lev) Mini Spider Man, Copper Top (By Terushima) Dumbass, Runt, Dolt, Scrub, Moron, Human Tangerine (by Kageyama) Pipsqueak (by Tsukishima) Sho-chan, Hina (by Izumi) Ginger/Little Ginger, Red/Little Red, Carrot Top (by Keishin Ukai) Munchkin, Shrimpy, Shrimpo, Shortie pie, Small Fry, Shorty (by various characters) Ninja Shōyō (manga only) Mr. I Got A Fever And Got Benched (by Sakusa)

Hinata has a cheerful and energetic personality. He is easily excited and can be quite loud, a trait second only to Nishinoya and Tanaka. For the most part, Hinata is very simpleminded which sometimes causes him to make rash decisions. However, he is also shown to be quite observant. He is capable of reading social cues and can be incredibly empathetic toward others' struggles. As such, he often says just what others need to hear to push themselves in the right direction. He is also noted to be a natural schmoozer, a quality that his teammates occasionally use to win someone over such as when Nishinoya agreed to help with Hinata's receives after being flattered by the first-year. His friendly and straightforward personality allows him to befriend even the quietest of people effortlessly, such as Kenma from Nekoma High and Aone from Date Tech High.

However, despite his generally bubbly exterior, Hinata is also shown to have a serious attitude, particularly when it comes to volleyball. His intense love for the sport is demonstrated through his impressive display of tenacity stemming from his constant desire to improve his abilities. As stated by Sugawara, Hinata plays with great fortitude in the face of adversity and thus doesn't give up easily during a match.[7] Hinata can also exhibit a very intimidating expression when people underestimate him or speak poorly of his team. Still, Hinata gets scared easily, especially by larger and stronger opponents. This prompts him to develop the habit of hiding behind his nearest teammate. However, he recovers quickly before confidently challenging their opponents.

Shoyo Hinata Quotes: "Before my eyes, it blocks my path. A high, high wall; what sort of scene is on the other side? What will I be able to see there? 'The View from the Top;' a scenery that I will never see on my own; but, if I'm not alone, then... I might be able to see it."

"It's painful. I want to stop. When I feel that way, I take a step forwards."

 "Next time, we're gonna make you play real hard, and make you get really determined, but we're gonna win. And then, we're gonna make you say: 'It was really fun' or: 'It was a hard loss' or: 'We're gonna get you next time!' Something... anything other than: 'It was just okay'!"

 "I thought it would be so cool if I could be like them. But you know? Even as I keep learning how to do more new and different things... I think... if someone were to give me a nickname... I'd want to be called... The Greatest Decoy."

Happy 31st Birthday to Koushi Sugawara aka Mr. Refreshing...Being the vice-captain, he has a soothing and gentle personality for his teammates and acts as a pillar of support for them. Even though he isn't Karasuno's regular setter anymore, he does not dream of giving up on playing. As such, he encourages himself and all of his teammates to never give up, no matter how rough the situation might be.

Koushi Sugawara Quotes: "Slowly, I feel like I'm being strangled. Yet, strangely, I feel calm because panic hasn't affected my concentration just yet. That's because our goal is so clear in front of us."

"[I want to be in the game.] I want to stay here longer. I want to stay with these guys. [Give me the thrill of the court.] I want to fight with these guys longer. [Let me feel out of breath.] Let me stand here. [I want to touch the ball. I want to fight.] I want to throw up a toss with my own hands over and over. Then, we'll [Karasuno] win the match that's right in front of us!"

"If it were just me against Aoba Johsai, I wouldn't stand a chance, but my teammates are plenty strong."

[ghostlykarma]

Happy 31st Birthday Hajime Iwaizumi also known as Iwa-Chan/Iwa

Iwaizumi is a stubborn but reliable teammate, often filling in Oikawa's spot as a morale booster if needed. He acts supportive to all, including Tobio Kageyama, and calls Oikawa out for his childish antics. He often resorts to violence with Oikawa whenever he teases or provokes him, but this does not change the fact that he cares immensely for him; as shown when he makes an effort to stop Oikawa from either working too hard or losing confidence.

Iwaizumi's firm-yet-caring attitude has led some members of the Aoba Johsai team to look up to and respect him. His underclassmen often gravitate towards him, and he is seen giving calm and light-hearted advice to Kindaichi, which can contrast to how he treats Oikawa. He is also very respectful and does not treat his rivals coldly, as Kageyama still treats him respectfully and Iwaizumi has acknowledged his skills.

It is also seen through some extras by Furudate that, while Iwaizumi can be strong and intimidating, he also has quite the goofy side where he loves monsters and gets excited when he finds an "Oikawa" fish in a book to make fun of Oikawa with.

Hajime Iwaizumi quotes: "Do you think you're fighting by yourself?! You've got to be kidding, you dumbass! If you think how you're doing equals how the team will do, I'll punch you!... There's no one on our team who can beat Ushiwaka one-on-one! However, there are six players on the volleyball court! Even if our opponent's some genius first-year or Ushiwaka, the team with the better six is stronger, you dumbass!"

 "How can I be the ace when I couldn't even make that?!"

"You're the best partner that I can boast. You're a really amazing setter. Even if the team changes, that will not change. But when we fight, I will defeat you."

Happy 29th birthday to Yutarou Kindiachi also known as the Turnip Head/Shallot Head/Onion Head, when playing volleyball, Kindaichi is open to feedback and willing to adjust his play to match his setter unless he feels the demands are unreasonable. In the latter case, Kindaichi is not afraid to express his frustration and stand up for himself. He is also shown to be quite competitive during a game, especially when faced against Hinata and Kageyama.

Kindaichi is generally good-natured and gets along well with his teammates. He is very respectful toward his upperclassmen, especially Oikawa and Iwaizumi. In contrast to his tough exterior, he appears to be quite sensitive. He is deeply affected by the middle school feud with Kageyama while the others have moved on. It is implied that he feels responsible for their failed partnership despite having tried his best to match Kageyama's demanding tosses. Even after their estrangement, Kindaichi still cares for his former teammate and has asked Hinata about Kageyama's well-being.

Yutaro Kindaichi Triva:

Favorite Food: Grilled Corn (Japanese: 焼やきとうもろこし Yaki Tōmorokoshi).

Pre-timeskip Concern: Girls in his class said that "Kindaichi-kun kind of seems more 'lanky' than 'tall', right?"

Happy 130th Birthday to Mitsuri Kanroj, She is a very emotional, passionate, and jovial individual who constantly compliments and swoons over her comrades in her head, likely a contributing factor towards her nickname as "the Hashira of Love."

She showcases a great amount of dedication to the Demon Slayers' cause. Despite being put out of commission by Muzan at an early stage in their battle, she was determined enough to return and fight.

Mitsuri Kanroji Quotes:"My heart would never flutter for those who needlessly hurt others!"

 "In the Demon Slayer Corps, everyone valued me. The people I saved from demons thanked me with tears in their eyes[...] Is it okay for a girl to be this strong? I still worry that someone may ask that, as though I'm not human. In my fear, I was suppressing my strength. But not anymore. Leave this to me. I will protect everyone."

"Thanks, you guys! I may be a Hashira, but I messed up! Sorry! I will not let my comrades die! The Demon Slayer Corps is an important place for me! You may be an Upper Rank or whatever, but that doesn't matter! I'm not gonna let one of those jerks beat me! Get ready, cuz I'm about to get serious!"

"I remember now! I was searching for a worthy man... But I was also searching for a place to be myself! I must be flexible... and lithe. I must be more like myself. What should I do, Rengoku? At a time like this, I... I can't stop... my heart from pounding!"

“Iguro, please… If we’re reborn… If we’re reborn as human beings… Can I be your bride?”

Happy 31st Birthday to Hana Misaki, She Somewhat quiet and timid, Misaki initially often lets herself be spoken over and doesn't chime into conversations often. However, during the match against Karasuno, she finds her voice and surprises her team, as well as Karasuno with a bold speech. Instead of her usual quiet self, she is very blunt about the boys' abilities, and what they need to do or change in order to win, showcasing why she was given the position of manager in the first place.

Hana Misaki Quotes: "I... haven't found a replacement yet, so I'm thinking of sticking around through the Spring High."

"Having fun even if you're inferior or not doing well? If anyone's actually like that, they're either creeps or weirdos."

"Those guys aren't thinking about when they mess up, even for a second. Just the pleasure they feel when they succeed."

"Also... About your style where you always go all-out with playing around... I actually like that a lot."

Happy 31st birthday to Satori Tendou also known as the 'Guess Monster.' Tendo is cheerful and loud, though a bit sardonic. He enjoys teasing both his teammates and opponents, usually annoying the latter. However, when he gets into the game, he becomes a different, more intimidating person, relishing the look of defeat on people's faces when they are denied. He is also extremely confident in his blocking abilities, referred to as guess blocking, as his guesses are nearly always correct as a result of his sharp intuition and observation skills.

Satori Tendou Quotes: "Ah, but y'see? Blocking isn't about stopping people. It's about spiking their hit back at them."

"What is it -♪- that breaks with a crickety-crack? Your heart, of course! ♪"

Happy 131st birthday To Kyojuro Rengoku also known as googly eyes (by insouke),Kyojuro was greatly enthusiastic in regard to his duties as a Hashira and often came across as cheerfully eccentric. He was amiable, pure of heart, and boasted extraordinary technique and swordsmanship stemming from strict practice and discipline. He was an honorable warrior who adhered to his code of morals and principles that was instilled into him by his mother at a young age; the most significant being his belief that those who were born strong have a duty to protect the weak.

Kyojuro Rengoku Quotes:"Helping the weak is the responsibility of the strong that's what my departed mom taught me! I bet you'll surpass me in sword fighting eventually! Your strength, flexibility, and unusual hair color... can attract demon's attention and cheer people up! Above all, you have a loving heart! So I'm happy and proud to be your trainer!"

 "Go ahead and live with your head held high. No matter how devastated you may be by your own weakness or uselessness, set your heart ablaze. Grit your teeth and look straight ahead. Even if you stop and crouch down, time won't wait for you or snuggle you and grieve along with you. Don't feel bad that I'm going to die here. As a Hashira, of course I would shield my juniors."

"Life is a series of decisions. You never have unlimited options or unlimited time to think, but what you choose in that instant defines who you are. Warriors who strive to save other people's lives are precious. Their pure and single-minded dedication is separate from their natural talent. They don't risk their lives to earn praise. They simply feel that they must. What they choose in that moment, is a cry from the depths of their souls. Isn't that right... my friends?"
