Koshi Sugawara

Favorite food: Super spicy mapo tofu.

Current problem: Many of his kohais are taller than him.

Sugawara wears white athletic shoes with blue/green accents.

He attended Nagamushi High School.

He is the oldest on the team.

Entered college in the preparatory class together with Daichi.

Zodiac sign - Gemini.

He, along with Daichi and Asahi, forms a set.

His jersey number (2) symbolizes the position of the setter, who receives the second touch of the ball in volleyball.

Apparently, when he gets nervous before a match, his body warms up, but his hands remain cold (for example, before the game with Shiratorizawa).

Synchronized Attack: Since summer training camp, Sugawara has been primarily responsible for the team's synchronized attacks. He also practiced passing during this time and now uses this to confuse opponents in matches. In the last set of the final match against Shiratorizawa, he joined the rest of his team for several synchronized attacks with Nishinoya's throws.
Pinch Serve: Sugawara isn't capable of a powerful pinch serve or a high jump, but he's particularly adept at targeting difficult spots that opponents can reach with a float serve. He often used serves to force opponents, like Kentaro Kyotani, to receive, thereby slowing them down and making them unable to throw.
Two-Setter Synchronized Attack: A synchronized attack with Sugawara as the setter and Kageyama as the wing spiker, giving Karasuno five (as opposed to four) available wing spikers.

As vice-captain, he reassures his teammates and acts as a source of support and encouragement. Even though he's no longer Karasuno's primary setter, he doesn't consider giving up on the game altogether. Thus, he encourages himself and all his teammates to persevere, no matter how difficult their circumstances.

Sugawara's dedication to volleyball is revealed when he decides to continue club activities even though most third-years would quit to focus on their studies. During a meeting, his teacher asked Sugawara why he decided to continue playing even though he wasn't a regular, and Sugawara replied that he didn't want to regret leaving in the future.

He's also quite perceptive, as he noticed Tanaka asking for the key to the gym (for Kageyama and Hinata's practice before the 3-on-3 first-year game), even though he's always late, so Sugawara knew Tanaka was up to something. He's also clever, coming up with useful tactics during the game. An example of this is when he came up with the idea for Kageyama and Hinata's combo.

Despite his nurturing demeanor, he can sometimes be mischievous, as seen when he encourages Hinata to barge into a youth camp uninvited. He's also prone to violence, teasing his teammates, often spanking them when he's excited to join a game, though this also has the effect of encouraging the team.

He's also quite proud, though it rarely shows. Notable examples include when he said, "Kageyama, from now on, if you get bombarded with interviews, you'll say, 'I learned everything from the brilliant Sugawara-senpai,' okay?" and when he bragged about how he came up with Kageyama's name and Hinata's new "minus tempo" technique. During the battle with Shiratorizawa, he was so annoyed by the loss of his team that he began rambling and sulking, which is very unlike his usual mature demeanor.

A guy of average height and build. He has light gray (ash) hair, brown eyes with a mole under his left eye. He can usually be seen with a soft smile on his face.

Koushi Sugawara is the volleyball club's vice-captain and a third-year student at Karasuno High School. Like Kageyama, he serves as the setter, filling in when needed. He's very kind and compassionate. He understands the feelings of all the club members, which is why everyone loves him.
