So I don’t feel obligated to stick to one hyper fixation I am writing this.
I haven’t seen Haikyuu since it left Netflix but I’ve had this idea for a long time.
Meet Victoria a 4’11” American exchange student living with her grandma and grandpa in Tokyo and goes to Nekoma High. Her mom told her to join a club and she randomly met the previous volleyball team manager that is now graduated, Victorias mom professionally played volleyball before retiring in her late 30’s, so she said why not and joined. On her first day she takes one look at the team, thinks there to fucking loud and decided to just do her manager duties with as little interaction as possible. So much so that only coach knows what she looks like, Kuroo and by extension Nobuyuki Kai and Kenma, only knows of her existence and nothing else. In contrast to most of the characters Victoria doesn’t particularly like volleyball and is kind of apathetic, stubborn, extremely sarcastic, and very straight and to the point. She was planning on continuing her ruse until graduation, until that overnight practice thing they did. Her grandpa found out about it and forced her to go. She stayed around the other managers and almost stabbed a couple players with a plastic knife. Afterwards though it’s safe to say that she can’t hide anymore and she will now be forced to use her vast bank of knowledge about volleyball, she just hopes they don’t find out who her mom is. But on the bright side she now has 14 easy targets to mock all the time.
