hfnaocbapfbo Furudate's so- how can he do this to me. A master at making you care about every team and every character the little "eliminated" box breaks my heart

Obvi takeru and Hinata have their battle of the little giants but he's multitalented so also has a little battle of wits with the opposing captain. Its admirable the way he doesn't underestimate his opponents at all and that even though little giants (mostly Hinata) are kinda expected to be very idk honest in their style, Takeru isn't above a bit of healthy taunting and manipulation. Wakutan'd make a helluva addition to the Miyagi training camp group.

Hella neat little technique but also I'm just noting all the little things Karasuno devours from other teams

was bored so let’s rank Hinata-attends-other-schools-aus

Shiratorizawa- -5/10 The absolute worst place for Hinata, hands down. Washijo would never let him even toe the lines of his school, much less his precious team. Especially not a Hinata that’s fresh out of middle school and has 0 experience.  And even if he did, it wouldn’t be a good time. An ace-centric team like Shiratorizawa, which looks for very specific skills in its players that are completely opposite to Hinata’s skill-set- they wouldn’t be able to do anything for them. If there’s a team out there that could crush Hinata’s spirits, it would be Shiratorizawa.

Nekoma- 2/10 There’s no way he’d be a starter at Nekoma and Kenma’s outright stated that as much as he loves Hinata, he would never want to be on his team. I do think Nekoma would let him sharpen his recieving skills and I’m sure Kenma would be able to use him effectively but I don’t think he’d be able to reach his full potential here. Additionally, Hinata’s entire thing is that his presence alone can fight a fire under everyone else’s asses but I don’t think Nekoma needs that.

Fukorodani- 4/10 Eh. It’s got Bokuto but I just think there are teams that would fit Hinata better.

Wakutan- 6/10 Takeru would be such a good role model for Hinata. They’d make each other better players and Hinata would be primed to take Takeru’s position in his second year. However, he’d be primed to be the ace, and might not learn his most important role of being a decoy.

Johenzi- 7/10 They’re crazy enough to let Hinata be a starter. Johenzi! Hinata would be a suuper interesting story tbh because of how much his arc would change. Johenzi doesn’t have a world-class setter like Kagyama or Atsumu, so Hinata wouldn’t be defined by his lightning-fast quicks but I trust them to carve out a space for him. Due to a lack of tempering influences, i’d imagine that it would be harder to bring out Hinata’s potential on this team.

Seijoh- 8/10  Seijoh’s actually a solid option because it’s got Oikawa who can bring out anyone’s skills. I’d imagine he’d be pretty open to using Hinata during official matches though he probably won’t be a starter. However, it loses a couple points because all the seijoh!hinata fics are oihina fics and that’s not my preferred flavour fo that ship.

Inarazaki- 30/10. My absolute favourite alternative school for Hinata and yes, most of that’s because Inarazaki’s the closest in nature to Karasuno. They’re the “ultimate challengers”, a public school that’s got to fight for its place in the volleyball rankings and the team’s also similar to Karasuno.There’s also the bonus factor of Atsumu, aka the only other person that can canonly also perform the quick with Hinata. My last and most important point in Inarazaki’s favour has a lot to do with the fact that i’d be hella interested in seeing a reversal of atsumu’s and kageyama’s roles in hinata’s life
