Shoyo Hinata isn't a large guy, but he's got huge ambitions: to become the next big thing in high school volleyball. Unfortunately, his junior high team was trashed in their first and only match. But now that he's enrolled in a high school with a top volleyball program, things are going to be different. There's just one problem: Tobio Kageyama, whose team beat Hinata's and is already considered a star player, is attending the same school.

The Spring High School National Volleyball Championship continues as the Karasuno team advances to take on the undefeated Shiratorizawa Academy High School. Shiratorizawa Academy has an extra ace, Wakatoshi Ushijima. He is a powerful wing spiker who's already played with the National Team! Shiratorizawa Academy will prove to be the hardest opponent that the Karasuno has had to face.
