Keiji Akaashi

About Akaashi, Keiji

Team: Fukurodani Academy Year: 2nd Year, Class 6 Height: 182.3 cm Weight: 70.7 kg Birthday: December 5 Number: 5 Position: Setter Role: Vice-captain Current Concern: "I want my physical power level a bit higher." Ability Parameters (out of 5): power = 3; jump = 4; stamina = 4; intellect = 4; technique = 4; speed = 4 Keiji Akaashi is Fukurōdani's vice captain and setter—a second year who's known for staying cool and collected even when things get hectic. He doesn't wear his emotions on his sleeve, and he's the type to call people out when they're being dumb, which means he and Bokuto have a thing going despite being basically opposites. He's blunt without being rude about it, tends to jump into conversations uninvited with sharp commentary, and balances that with genuine politeness. Though he's humble enough to acknowledge his own limits as a setter—he's openly said Kageyama's abilities are on a different level—he's also got a cheeky streak. Fans still remember him nicely dubbing Kuroo "Pain-in-the-ass Kuroo-san" during one match, which says a lot about his dry sense of humor. Part of his willingness to speak up probably comes from being younger than most of his teammates, but it works for him.
