Yūji Terushima

Captain of Johzenji High's volleyball team, Terushima strolls onto the court with bleached spiky hair, a lip piercing, and a grin that suggests trouble. He plays loose and showy, all flashy serves and flirtatious bravado, treating the game like a party he intends to win. Beneath the swagger is a sharp competitive instinct he doesn't bother hiding.

Haikyuu!! is full of intense, disciplined athletes, so Terushima's unapologetic cockiness is a jolt of fun — he's a rival who seems to be having the best time of anyone on the court. Eguchi plays him with a lazy, teasing swagger that makes his sudden bursts of real skill land even harder.
