The character Tobio Kageyama went through a great journey of transformation throughout Haikyuu!! . Since he joined Karasuno , Kageyama has learned valuable lessons about teamwork and the game of volleyball itself. Although he started out as a selfish and arrogant player, he evolved into one of the best volleyball setters in Japan thanks to the support of Hinata and the rest of his team.
Haikyuu!! – Kageyama’s evolution throughout the series
Initially, Kageyama was nicknamed “King of the Court” because he was an exceptional setter since high school. However, his controlling and perfectionist nature made him fearsome to his teammates. No matter how hard they tried, Kageyama only criticized his colleagues. Then his team went so far as to refuse to play him during a match. This experience made him realize how arrogant he was and why no one wanted to play alongside him.
On the other hand, his evolution began when he entered Karasuno High School along with Shouyou Hinata . The fear of hitting balls that no one would catch haunted him, so he finally left the “King of the Court” ego behind.
