KAGEYAMA TOBIO BEING PRESIDENT OF HINATA FANCLUB A THREAD 👍

the way KAGEYAMA TOBIO was the one who FIRST SAW hinata’s potential, who TOOK HIM COMPLETELY SERIOUSLY as a rival upon first meeting even after totally crushing him, +
the way KAGEYAMA TOBIO was the one who gave hinata the greatest decoy name because he BELIEVED IN HINATA’S UNIQUE STRENGTH *EVEN WHEN HINATA DIDNT*, saw hinata feeling inferior and insecure and immediately, naturally, moved to change that, to show him his strength,
which would become a huge part of hinata’s arc related to him finding his own strengths and identity ALL THE WAY UP TO 384,
the way he and hinata instinctively understood eachother to the point of being mistaken for childhood friends,
the way HE TOLD HINATA he would keep sending him tosses, “of course!” when hinata had previously been held back by the fact that nobody would toss to him, the way this is paralleled ALL THE WAY IN 314-5, (check out hina’s face of joy too)
the way with that same toss, he was finally breaking free from the curse of speed because he was GIVING HINATA HIS TRUST,
the way he was willing to step outside his comfort zone to see hinata’s side after their fight, the way he practiced so hard to make their new quick work FOR his PARTNERSHIP WITH HINATA,
the way he watches so supportively and proudly as hinata tells ushijima he’s going to defeat him, because he knows how much hinata means it, THATS WHY HE BELIEVES IN HINATA SO MUCH.
the way his belief in hinata doesnt falter even when hinata himself is intimidated,
the way he believes hinata when he repeats this line to him and hence goes straight for a risky move reflecting the idea that when theyre together, theyre invincible,
the way he TOSSED TO HINATA on the last point of seijoh 2 even tho they lost with that move on seijoh 1, because with this new toss he has confidence and faith in hinata. the way hinata is his “best weapon.”
the way he’s able to say “im going on AHEAD” ~ “ill be waiting for you ahead”, because he doesnt doubt hinata WILL make it there. the way he looks so determined and proud when hinata says he was ball boy because he sees it as more evidence to back up his faith in hinata,
rare anime appearance for this moment the way HE was the one to initiate the fistbump the way he says WE’RE going to win tomorrow, literally extending himself to hinata,
the way he tosses to hinata effortlessly on the last pt of the shiratorizawa match too,
the way he’s able to say “im going on AHEAD” ~ “ill be waiting for you ahead”, because he doesnt doubt hinata WILL make it there. the way he looks so determined and proud when hinata says he was ball boy because he sees it as more evidence to back up his faith in hinata.
the way his instinct is tossing to *HINATA*.
the way he sees a national level player and his thoughts are to use him as a reference FOR HINATA. the way HE is the one who tells hinata he can fly higher, the way HES ALWAYS THE ONE WHO BELIEVES IN HINATA THE MOST.
the way hes able to break free from a potentially retraumatizing spiral in 224 BECAUSE OF HINATA, because hes instinctively impacted by hinata,
the way HE was the only one who knew something was up with hinata because he knows hinata, his tendency to not look after his health, the way he tries to get hinata to take care of himself,
the way HE was the one who knew exactly what to say to him in 365 bc hes spent hundreds of hrs pouring sweat in the gym practicing w hinata and spending time w him bc they both care bc they see eachother as equals in rivals and partners,
the way he CONTINUED TO BELIEVE IN HINATA when he was abt to leave for rio, the way he reiterates that bt literally saying TOOK TOU LONG ENOUGH, thr way hes spent this entire match being so fondly happy and excited that his years long rivalry w hinata is finally seeing its stage,
the way hinata was the one “found” him when tobio desperately needed it, and *tobio knows this*,
the way some ppl want to believe hinata’s some weak boy whos been helpless to kageyama’s cold treatment for years when its always been the direct opposite, when HINATA was often the one pushing and demanding, bc theyre EQUALS.
the way this entire series started off with tobio being the sole person who believed in hinata as a rival, and then grew to be the person who MOST STRONGLY believed in him as a teammate while also developing that rivalry so HEALTHILY and in a complex manner,
and the way hq ultimately follows that journey for them... let’s please not act like kghn or kageyama is something its not. this isnt abt ships see how i didnt mention anything romantically; u dont have to ship kghn idc. i personally like my tskkg & tskhn & atshn too.
but you dont have to ignore and insult furudate’s entire series to mischaracterize characters and relationships for your ships. please do better. this thread isnt even an analysis thread its just me pointing out literal canon bc im sick of ppl just ignoring canon
and then trying to pass off their version as the truth. write ur oocs! fine! but admit theyre ooc dont try to make it seem like kageyama canonically looks down on hinata and is cold to him or that kghn are toxic.
and im sure i missed some things bc its literally THE ENTIRE SERIES.... 😅😅
and when 397 (or whenever hinata pov drops) is released this thread will have even more meaning, we’ll get to see just how much they each mean to eachother. for that reason this thread is currently unfinished. thank u
furthermore kageyama’s relationship w hinata has never been weirdly possessive. we can see this in the current arc bc kghn is about being the greatest OPPONENTS as well as being greatest PARTNERS. theyre BOTH, u cant just ignore the opponent part, their rivalry is the WHOLE THING
