Omg, Mafia Sejioh was something I needed but didn't know I needed. 🤩
And just look at Tooru omg. 💖
In what manga chapter did Kunimi say this: "So always playing recklessly is the same as playing seriously?"?
Now, because Oikawa's amazing, this will be about him. Inspiration has been taken.
I don't think anyone will read it completely-
One thing been emphasized many times in the show, Oikawa's not a naturally gifted player at volleyball. Heck, there's even an episode that's title is "Oikawa Tooru is Not a Genius". Despite that, he's one amazing setter and obviously the best player in Sejioh. He's also respected by so many people, and he was literally asked to join a team that rejected Kageyama. (Who the show emphasizes to be a naturally gifted player)
Since he didn't have any natural skill or technique, he resorted to compensating with his own tactics and practice. He knew that, no matter how hard he tried, he would never have the same technical skill as a genius like Kageyama. Instead, he used his other skills to bring out the best in his players and spikers.
One amazing think about Oikawa is his leadership, and how much his teammates trust him. They understand the impact Oikawa has had on them as players. And they trust that he'll send them a good toss, trust the strategies he'll formulate, most of all, trust his leadership. Despite being called the "Grand King" Oikawa is depicted of more of a hands on leader, like a general.
Oikawa knows he doesn't have the technical skill of a genius like Kageyama, so he dedicates his focus to improving his team. The start of this focus would probably come from the episode where he almost slaps Kageyama in middle school. Iwaizumi intervenes and quite literally knocks some sense into him. They fight and yell, but then Iwaizumi tells him, "There are six people on court! The team with the best six players is the best!" Oikawa seems to have an realisation then.
He seems to realize exactly what Iwa is saying. It seems very straightforward at first, but it clearly not all that simple. Oikawa thought he had to improve himself as a setter so he could carry his team to sucess. He was trying to be a king. Thankfully, Iwa cut off that train of thought very early on.
The show compared what Iwaizumi said to multiplication and addition. Oikawa thought that he had to improve himself because he thought you just mushed together the strengths of each player. That's wrong. He learned that you multiply the strengths of each player instead. It takes some time to actually understand the meaning behind this, but it means each player will affect one another in a team. They can't just play as individuals that are on the same side of the court. By trying to add the powers of your team, you just stack them on top of each other. By multiplying, you take what you already have and make it greater by merging it with something else. The players get stronger when together.
Oikawa is a adaptive player, and a very flexible setter. He gives his energy to improve his team, and they respond by giving their energy to get better and win. I found it interesting how loyal his teammates were to him. It brings me back to Oikawa being a general and not a king. Kageyama is high, untouchable, and barks out orders as the king, while Oikawa is the brave general who leads the soldiers. Oikawa fights alongside his soldiers. Kageyama stays in his palace, highly revered, but alone. The difference between them is that people are forced to follow Kageyama because of his unparalleled power. People follow Oikawa because they trust him with their life.
Kageyama was a genius from the beginning. His skill was something he was born with, and now he's king. When the eldest prince is born they have the birthright to become king. Kageyama got his title simply because he was lucky. A general has to work for his title and rise up the ranks. Generals risk their lives with soldiers while the king commands from the palace. That's why some soldiers were more loyal to their general than to their king. The analogy doesn't really work for their relationship, but it's great for their individual characters.
Oikawa's relationship with Kageyama
It's hard to understand why Oikawa hates Tobio so much for a lot of people.
Middle school Kageyama was a natural born player, and middle school Oikawa was just a mess of overworking, crippling insecurity, and burning out, which was masked by an egoistic demeanor.
Oikawa hated the fact he worked himself to death to make it, and some random bright-eyed, prodigy first year just comes in and takes it all. Maybe it wasn't reasonable to hate him so much, but middle schoolers aren't reasonable. Some people say Oikawa was supposed act more mature and responsible, an that he should have had more self control with his feelings. They seem to forget he was a literal child. He just entered adolescence, and he was still learning. He shouldn't be expected to handle things like an adult when he isn't one. Oikawa was just scared.
He loved volleyball and didn't want to be replaced Kageyama. He overworked himself so he wouldn't be dispensable. I agree that he shouldn't have tried to hit Kageyama. That doesn't make him a bad character, though. Let me explain:
A Stupidly Long Oikawa Analysis
The main issue with Oikawa is that he's not naturally gifted, which is emphasized a lot in the show. For example, the last episode of the season one match of Karasuno vs Seijoh was named "Oikawa Tooru is not a Genius". Despite that, he's still the best player on Seijoh, and is highly respected by his teammates as a setter and their captain. Due to not having any natural skill or technique, Oikawa resorted to compensating with his own tactics. He knew that, no matter how hard he tried, he would never have the same technical skill as a genius like Kageyama. Instead, he used his own skills in analysis and communication to bring out the best in his spikers.
This is why, despite being called Grand King, Oikawa is depicted as a mighty general. He leads his soldiers, and in return, they trust him with their lives and fight with him. The amazing thing about Oikawa's leadership is that his teammates trust him because they know he can lead them. They understand that Oikawa has honed their skills and improved them all as players. He's helped them all, and when a game comes, they understand that all he asks of them is to keep trusting him. Trust that he'll send them a good toss, trust the strategies he'll formulate, trust his leadership.
At the end of the day, Oikawa knows he doesn't have the technical skill of a genius, so he dedicates his focus to improving his whole team. The origin of this focus would probably come from the episode where he almost backhands Kageyama in middle school. Iwaizumi intervenes and literally knocks some sense into him. They fight and yell, but then Iwaizumi tells Oikawa, "There are six people on court! The team with the best six players is the best!" Oikawa seems to have an epiphany then. He seems to realize exactly what his best friend is saying. It seems very straightforward at first, but it clearly not all that simple. Oikawa thought that he had to improve himself as a setter so he could carry his team to victory. He was trying to be a king. Luckily, he had Iwaizumi to cut off that train of thought very early on.
I loved how the show compared what Iwaizumi said to multiplication and addition. Oikawa thought that he had to improve himself because he thought you just mushed together the strengths of each player. That's wrong. He learned that you multiply the strengths of each player instead. It took me a bit to understand that one too. The way I look at that, it means that each player will affect one another when in a team. They can't just play as individuals that happen to be on the same side of the court. By trying to add the powers of your team, you just stack them on top of each other. By multiplying, you take what you already have and make it greater by merging it with something else.
If you like visuals, think of oil and water vs baking soda and vinegar. Adding oil to water increases the overall volume of liquid, but they never combine. If there is a cup of water and a cup of oil, you get two cups of liquid. Baking soda and vinegar doesn't just stack; it explodes. If you have a cup of vinegar and a cup of baking soda, they'll make way more than two cups when they combine. The players get stronger when together.
So, Oikawa stops trying to become a king. He obviously does keep trying to improve as a player, but he starts to focus more on his spikers. He realizes that he can compensate for his lack of natural technical skill by using his own natural skill of reading people and adjusting his responses adequately. Oikawa is a versatile player, and a very flexible setter. He gives his energy to improve his team, and they respond by giving their energy to get better and win. I found it interesting how loyal his teammates were to him. It brings me back to Oikawa being a general and not a king. Kageyama is high, untouchable, and barks out orders as the king, while Oikawa is the brave general who leads the soldiers. Oikawa fights alongside his soldiers. Kageyama stays in his palace, highly revered, but alone. The difference between them is that people are forced to follow Kageyama because of his unparalleled power. People follow Oikawa because they trust him with their life.
It's actually one of my favorite pieces of symbolism in Haikyuu. Kageyama was a genius from the beginning. His skill was something he was born with, and now he's king. When the eldest prince is born they have the birthright to become king. Kageyama got his title simply because he was lucky (
I love Kageyama, and I know he worked very hard, but he was mainly able to get there because he's a natural born genius. Generals have to rise through the ranks and work for their position. Some soldiers in history were actually more loyal to their general than to their king. Generals risk their lives with their soldiers. The king commands from the palace. The analogy doesn't really work for their relationship, but it's great for their individual characters.
As for Oikawa's relationship with Kageyama? It's complicated, as most things with Oikawa are. Oikawa is Kageyama's upperclassman, and It's evident that Kageyama once looked up to him. At first, I never understood why Oikawa hated Kageyama so much. It was fairly obvious that his underclassman basically worshipped him, and I thought it would do wonders for his ego. However, it seems so much more obvious after a bit of rewatching. Middle school Kageyama was a natural from the start, and middle school Oikawa was just a mess of overworking, burning out, and crippling insecurity masked by egoism.
Oikawa hated that he worked himself to death to make the cut, then some random bright eyed prodigy first year just comes in and steals the show. Maybe it wasn't reasonable to hate him so much, but middle schoolers aren't reasonable. Some people say Oikawa was supposed act more mature and responsible, an that he should have had more self control with his feelings. They seem to forget he was a CHILD. He was a literal child; he just entered adolescence, and he was still learning. He shouldn't be expected to handle things like an adult when he isn't one. Oikawa was just SCARED. He loved volleyball and didn't want to be replaced by Kageyama. He overworked himself so he wouldn't be dispensable. I agree that he should not have tried to hit Kageyama. However, you can't say that it makes him a bad person or character.
It was clear that he was having a sort of adrenaline rush from overworking himself. He was visibly agitated and overwhelmed, but, Kageyama approached him. This isn't Tobio's fault either. Imagine, though, how Oikawa felt. He was in the middle of training so he wouldn't be replaced, and who decides to interrupt? The person he's trying not to be replaced by. Again, not Tobio's fault, but you must understand that Oikawa was afraid. He was stuck in this swarm of negative thinking, and the very source of so much of his fear and insecurity was suddenly right in front of him. It wasn't right of him to do that, but you can understand why he did it, right?
It was his worst fear come to life when he was subbed out for Kageyama in one of their games. It was too much for him. Thankfully, Iwaizumi's lecture struck a chord, and he made an apparent effort to remember it. However, I don't think it made his fear go away. In fact, I think his fear of being replaced originated before middle school. This is mainly because I think Oikawa's obnoxious personality is a type of defense mechanism used against this fear. Oikawa is objectively very good-looking, flamboyant and charming; he's also very popular.
Personality switching
Around his friends he acts very childish, but switches again to his charming persona when around fans or other classmates. It was fairly clear that something wasn't right. One of the author's greatest strengths is building characters; I didn't see any clear consistency problems with the others, so it definitely wasn't bad writing. I believe Oikawa switches behaviour depending on what reputation he's trying to keep. We know he's insecure at heart, and we see him trying to play it off by being prideful.
I believe that Oikawa acts the way he does so that people don't get bored of him. He wants a reputation, because that means people will know about him. Something that is consistent about his behaviour is he's very sociable in both. He's childish, loud, and constantly wants attention, or he's always laughing, flirting, and joking. It's almost as if he believes that everybody will find someone new if he doesn't remind them he's still there. He thinks people will get bored of him, so he constantly tries to make sure people stay interested. Many people say he's too annoying and narcissistic, but he does it because he's afraid people will forget him if he doesn't catch their attention.
Why didn't Oikawa go to Shiratorizawa?
Oikawa wanted to go to Nationals, and joining Shiratorizawa would give him a sure shot at it. Best ace and best setter in the entire prefecture on one team? They would blow the competition away. It would have been so much easier if Oikawa had swallowed his pride and joined Shiratorizawa. However, it seems that it wasn't necessarily about all about "worthless pride". Of course it was a part of it, but Oikawa wouldn't let his pride get in the way of his dreams. He's better than that.
He's a direct opposition to the main characters. He refused to join a powerhouse team for an easy ticket to Nationals. He uses his personal strengths to improve instead of being upset over what he doesn't have. Oikawa is an incredibly unique character because of his sheer will to do things the way he wants. Oikawa is a control freak, but in a less direct way than Kageyama. He doesn't force everyone to adapt to him, yelling, "You better follow me!" Rather, he says, "Follow me if you dare to."
There's a lot of symbolism in Haikyuu. Notice how every national level school is represented by an animal? The fearsome eagle of Shiratorizawa, the wild crow of Karasuno, the intelligent cat of Nekoma, the soaring owl of Fukurodani?
What does Aoba Johsai have? A castle. Aoba Johsai translates to Blue Castle. While the other teams fight, jump, and soar, Aoba Johsai is beautiful, strong, protective, and reliable, but they will never fly. It was almost as if Oikawa went to Aoba Johsai simply to prove that he didn't need Ushijima to go to Nationals. Looking at it like that, it indeed makes it look like Oikawa refuses to go to Shiratorizawa out of pride. However, I like to see it as more than that.
Oikawa's greatest wish was to defeat Shiratorizawa in order to go to Nationals. It would be like telling him he did years of work for nothing. To him, Ushijima was saying, "You tried your best, but you know you can't beat me. All your work was for nothing, now come, join us and just give up already." He was insulted, and honestly, I don't blame him. Oikawa's perseverance was what got him where he was.
No, he's not a genius, but he doesn't need to be one. He wants to follow his dreams his own way or he doesn't want it at all.
Another thing worth mentioning is that Oikawa wanted to go to Nationals with Iwa. Oikawa and Iwaizumi were together their entire lives. They played, they cried, they laughed, they lost, they won, but they were always together. Oikawa needs Iwaizumi specifically because he trusts that he'll never be dispensable to his best friend.
Iwaizumi is his support, the way he grounds himself when things are too much. Oikawa and Iwaizumi want to go to Nationals together. Oikawa wouldn't be willing to let go of that. Again, Oikawa refuses to settle. He wants to lead a team to Nationals with his partner.
Oikawa was willing to risk everything. He wanted to go all in. Maybe it was wrong, and maybe it was his worthless pride. Regardless, it shows us his unparalleled passion for the sport. He deserved so much more than what he got, but life isn't fair. Haikyuu shows us that. It's almost discouraging to see Oikawa lose. If you look at it, between Oikawa and Kageyama, Oikawa is actually the underdog. Kageyama is the genius, natural born player and Oikawa just tries his best and works hard.
!!!SPOILERS FOR THE LAST CHAPTER!!!
This man was so damn petty and determined to follow his dreams, he immigrated to A DIFFERENT HEMISPHERE. He was so determined to make his own path that he made a name for himself on the other side of the world in Argentina. He was virtually unknown, and had to start from scratch all again. What happened? He actually did it, and now he's the main focus of his team. I have such a ridiculous amount of respect for this guy and his determination.
It's discouraging to be surrounded by people better than you, and failure is unavoidable. But, you can use those failures as a lesson to improve yourself, and if you stick to your goals until the very end, the world will get tired and it'll work out. In the end, Oikawa really accomplishes his dreams. Maybe Iwaizumi isn't with him, but Oikawa has learned by then how to live without him and vice versa. Instead, he gets to fulfill his promise of defeating him when they face each other.
Oikawa never went to Nationals, (which I hate) but now he's at International level. Now he finally gets to beat Ushijima, Kageyama, and Iwaizumi all in one spot. We don't even get to see the result of the match, which is something I love. Oikawa is the only one we know in Argentina; it would be unrealistic to try decide a winner between the two if we don't know the strengths and weaknesses of each player. Anyways, we finally get to see Oikawa get what he deserves. Maybe it will work out for him, and maybe it won't.
Hopefully it will, though. But life keeps changing, nothing's ever for sure. We never know what might happen next.
Oikawa is one of the most fascinating characters I've ever come across. I genuinely believe Oikawa is the most well written and complex characters I've ever come across. He’s also pretty, so bonus!
ALSO HAPPY BIRTHDAY IWA I LUV U SM AHHH
