Kuroo Tetsurou ⁰³

Kuro's physical features give him a cunning appearance, thanks to his narrowed eyes and feline features like most of his team, due to the elongated pupil he has. He is quite tall and has a robust build. His hair is black and is styled with bangs on his right side with many people describing his style as if he had just gotten out of bed. He is usually seen wearing a black t-shirt and burgundy sweatpants, the classic attire of his team outside of matches; sometimes with a red jacket on top. In matches he wears the number 1, classic among team captains.

He has a laid-back yet scheming personality, and is considered a "provocation expert." This talent is demonstrated by the way he angers Tsukishima during the "Saitama Training Camp" arc. However, he later apologized to Daichi for the provocation, clarifying that he did it in order to help him improve. He is usually seen smiling when things go his way. He is quite kind and willing to help others improve. During matches, he is usually a cautious person, faithful to the Nekoma style, studying his opponent and holding on to then devour him. He usually puts into practice the strategies that Kenma designs, demonstrating his blind faith in him.

Kuroo moved into Kenma's neighborhood when they were young, and they gradually became close friends. Due to his shy and retiring nature, the two ended up silently playing video games until Kenma asked what Kuroo wanted to do one day. Kuroo suggested playing volleyball, and Kenma joined despite his initial disappointment at not being a video gamer. Once Kuroo started to open up more, Kenma realized that there was indeed a loudmouth underneath it all. Kuroo remained close to Kenma even after joining a new volleyball club, making new friends, and becoming Kenma's personal friend, and respected the latter's wishes to not participate in certain activities. Kuroo insisted on helping Kenma foster his own interests, stating that if Kenma was interested in something, he would ask him out; otherwise, Kuroo doesn't want to make Kenma uncomfortable. Kuroo and Kenma remain good friends in adulthood and would still work together from time to time. After the timeskip, Kuroo revealed that he is planning a video collaboration with Kodzuken, the famous Youtuber/gamer, and asked Hinata to join them to get more views possible.

At some point in middle school, Yaku's team crushed Kuroo's, causing the latter to bitterly resent the libero. As a result, they often clashed as first years at Nekoma. When opposing Yaku, Kuroo prefers fish, girls with long hair, sweet curry, Mikasa volleyball, going to the sea during the summer, dogs, and Japanese style; however, it is unclear if he said any of those things to get him to oppose Yaku. As third years now, they have a strong relationship and mutual respect.

Kuroo has been shown to be the person most responsible for teaching Lev proper blocking techniques such as read blocking and correct arm placement. Although Kuroo can sometimes get frustrated by Lev's impulsiveness, he is also patient and always willing to help in any way he can. After Nekoma's loss against Fukurōdani Academy, Lev was depressed about his performance, but Kuroo was there to try to cheer him up and help him understand the meaning of teamwork.
