Tsukasa Iizuna (Japanese: 飯綱掌,Iizuna Tsukasa) was a third-year student at Itachiyama Institute. He played as the setter and captain for the Boys' Volleyball Team.
Currently, Iizuna is a setter on the Division 1 V.League team, the DESEO Hornets.
Iizuna seems to have a youthful appearance with large eyes and a slim build. His hair is light in color, and he has small, thin eyebrows.
Post-timeskip, Iizuna has gained a more mature and broader appearance.
Personality[]
Iizuna appears to be very hardworking as when he was injured, he stated that he was frustrated because he did everything properly, which makes the injury and subsequent loss more frustrating. He is also likely a fairly responsible person considering he was the captain of Itachiyama.

When Sakusa and Komori met Iizuna for the first time while in middle school, meaning Iizuna would have been a first-year in high school at the time, Komori stated that Iizuna had received the best setter award in last year's Junior Olympic Cup.[3] This insinuates that Iizuna is quite a skilled setter. The fact that he also currently plays for a Division 1 V.League team also supplements this assumption.
Itachiyama Institute: Although not much is known, Iizuna appears to have been a stable and reassuring figure toward some of the younger players. He especially seemed close to Sakusa.
Despite the name suggesting affiliation with the Olympics, Junior Olympic Cup is a nickname for a middle school level national volleyball tournament taking place in winter, with the goal of finding athletes who could go on to become Olympic level players.
According to his chibi illustration for the 2022 Special Match, his nickname is Zuna.
