Hoshiumi&
#39;s backstory is eerily similar to Washijou&
#39;s, a moment of learned helplessness that shapes their philosophies. Inspired by his mom, Hoshiumi deals with being short by developing strength in other areas. Washijou lives vicariously through powerful & tall players as a coach
"There&
#39;s no way to make yourself taller, but there are lots of ways you can be better."
"I was convinced that if you didn&
#39;t have enough height yourself, you didn&
#39;t have a choice but to find ways to fight without height." Washijou&
#39;s words describe Hoshiumi.
HINATA IS DIFFERENT
With this jump, Hinata has shattered Hoshiumi&
#39;s, Tenma&
#39;s and Washijou&
#39;s longstanding beliefs on being limited by their disadvantage. He makes himself taller and fights with height by jumping over block-- he hasn&
#39;t accepted that his weakness limits him. Hinata gives them hope.
