Shinsuke Kita 「北信介,, Kita Shinsuke?」student of Inarizaki.
Kita is of average height with an athletic build. Her hair is light gray with black tips, and she has dark eyes and thin eyebrows.
Kita has a very blunt way of speaking, similar to Ushijima, where he doesn't mince words when expressing his opinions or thoughts. Because of this, his teammates often fear being on the receiving end of Kita's cold logic. Despite his demeanor, he cares deeply for his teammates, as seen when Atsumu catches a cold and Kita tells him to go home and rest, later scolding Ginjima for praising Atsumu for neglecting his health by continuing to practice. Afterward, Kita gives Atsumu food and drinks from a convenience store, with a note advising him to eat well and get plenty of sleep because of his cold.

Off the court, Kita does what needs to be done, relying heavily on his abilities. Not the "I'm the best" kind of confidence, but the kind where he has faith he'll never make a mistake. Kita has said he doesn't feel nervous because it's unnecessary for something you do regularly, which includes volleyball. Despite his stern manner of speaking and bland expression, the moment he received the captain's uniform, he started crying, which surprised Suna, who thought the boy was more of a "robotic" type.

Kita has a very mature way of thinking, since she says that she tends to agree more with adults than with her classmates, even having a logical reason to feel happy.

Osamu Miya (Japanese: , Miya Osamu)宮みや 治 second year student at Inarizaki High School.
Osamu appears to be the quieter of the Miya twins, with a relaxed and impassive personality. Despite his appearance, Osamu is very competitive and easily angered, though he doesn't show it. However, if provoked enough, he becomes enraged and violent. In this state, he loses control and starts swearing. So far, his brother is the only person who has managed to make him react this way.

Osamu also demonstrates a great passion for food. He often thinks about it during matches and is easily distracted by its aroma. He seems unable to choose a favorite food and wouldn't know what to eat for his last meal. Like his brother, he loses self-control when it comes to eating. In his second year of high school, he decided to quit volleyball to pursue a career in the food industry, which eventually led him to found Onigiri Miya.

During his childhood, Osamu came across as the more approachable twin, as the others got along better with him. Even in elementary school, Osamu was very observant: he noticed how his classmates disliked Atsumu's demanding nature and how his brother enjoyed volleyball more than he did, seemingly unconcerned with others' opinions. At the same time, he seemed somewhat annoyed that others didn't like Atsumu, and he feared they would think the same of him, which motivated him to be the kinder twin.

He has shown to have a sense of humor, especially with regard to Atsumu, whom Osamu teases every time he makes a mistake.

Atsumu
Atsumu Miya 「宮侑, Miya Atsumu?]. Setter/Setter at Inarizaki High School.
Atsumu is a young man of average height and a fairly robust build. He stands out for his distinctive hairstyle, which is dyed blond with his bangs falling slightly to his right side (unlike his brother Osamu's). The sides and back of his neck are shaved, revealing what appears to be his natural black hair color. He usually has a serene expression, influenced by his large, slightly droopy eyes.
Atsumu is one of those young people who go about their business with a serene and carefree, yet self-assured, demeanor. His lazy smile often deceives people, whom he enjoys teasing and showering with impromptu compliments. He can be quite arrogant, condescending, and even selfish at times. His younger brother has described him as someone who doesn't listen to other people's opinions, never returns borrowed items, and is a liar.

During his childhood, Osamu had black hair. Later, in middle school, he dyed it gray. Unlike his twin brother, Atsumu, Osamu wears his bangs swept to the left. He has gray eyes with droopy eyelids.

Upon entering high school, Osamu developed a more muscular physique and grew to be six feet tall. He is usually seen with a neutral expression, but shows enthusiasm during games or annoyance when his brother suggests trying something new.

Suna has dark brown, loosely styled hair with a few strands sticking up on top of his head and a half-parted fringe. He has narrow, grayish-yellow eyes and thin eyebrows. He is often seen with a blank expression. Suna appears to be an expressionless and quiet person. He tends to relax when his team has a large lead and seems to be winning the game. He is more expressive with his thoughts, wishing he could find a reason to tease Kita or make new sarcastic remarks about Tsukishima and Tanaka. He is also quite analytical, as he can manipulate opposing blockers and realize that Tsukishima was bothering him to shoot around his block.

first-year student at Inarizaki High School.
Riseki has an athletic build and is 185 cm tall. He has short, dark hair and usually wears a serious expression. He has long, dark eyebrows and large gray or hazel eyes.

After the time skip, Riseki looks virtually the same, but now has shorter hair. Riseki is a rational and respectful person. He tends to overthink things, as his captain, Kita, points out. He's a skilled player who attended prestigious schools in both middle and high school; however, he was never good enough to make the starting lineup. During his middle school years, he only played once as a substitute, and he missed his serve. He deeply regrets this, so one could say he has a pessimistic mindset.

Ginjima is a tall player, standing at 1.80m, with spiky silver hair (though in the anime it's a volcanic silver color). He has small eyebrows that are usually furrowed. His hands are also noticeably larger than usual.

Ginjima is originally described as someone with a strong sense of responsibility, but a strong personality that often leads him to make rash decisions. However, in reality—like all high school boys—he also has a childish side (like Atsumu).

Aran Ojiro (尾白おじろアラン Ojiro Aran) is a third-year student at Inarizaki High School and one of the attackers on the volleyball team. Aran has thick, neatly trimmed, dark brown eyebrows. He is quite tall and has a muscular, athletic build. His eyes are almond-shaped with fox-like pupils; in the manga, his eyes are golden/brown, and in the anime, they are grayish-green.
Aran is portrayed as a mature third-year student. He's in class five, so it can be assumed he's quite intelligent. At times, he seems rather discouraged by the rude and unpleasant behavior of the Miya twins, but aside from that, he's shown to have a strong connection with all of his teammates.
