The shorts additionally have a solid teal-colored streak running down the side of their white shorts. At away games, they use the alternate black shorts with white lettering detailing their number on the team, centered quite squarely on the right side of the shorts. Players of the Black Shadows are required to wear black shoes with teal detailing in order to not draw attention to themselves, and to prevent outfit clashing.

Inarizaki High Girls' Volleyball Team

**"Insignificant being be gone!"**

The **Inarizaki High Girls' Volleyball Team** (Japanese: **稲荷崎 (いなりざき) 高校 (こうこう) 女子 (じょし)** , *Inarizaki Kōkō Joshi*) is a girls-only volleyball team, part of Inarizaki High.

## Repuation

Aside from ranking as a nationally reknown powerhouse volleyball team that has attended Spring Tournament for three years consecutively and 31 times overall, they are also known for their international players (many who came to Inarizaki High just for the volleyball teams). Much like their male counterparts, they were the runners-up of the last Interhigh and are the current 2nd seed of high school volleyball. Known for their analyzing managers, as well as their constantly improving list of players, they boast an impressive roster. Having garnered a reputation as the "Administrators of the Court" - they are well-known for their sly and deceptive play style as well as their tendency to take risks, at highly inappropiate moments. Their motto is "Reach for the stars (surpass boundaries) to grasp at freedom" to signify surpassing all of their boundaries and charging forward fearlessely regardless of the risks.

The girls' volleyball team is stated to be slightly less popular than the males, this lack of popularity mostly due to the cold and reserved natures of most of it's players. They are described as quite standoffish and don't enjoy when attention is brought to them, yet on game days, seats for their matches are sold out. Like their male counterparts, they are usually accompanied by their large orchestra and cheer squad. They appear to dislike the development of techniques to distract their enemies, preferring to rely on their own physical and mental abilities.

As he became a leader, it's true to his word that he was thinking of enrolling into politics much simpler than he thought, eventually becoming a minister

Breaking Point

**Rōmaji** | *Genkai-ten*

Breaking Point is an ability that ***cannot be*** activated at will, but the user has to be in a dire situation where their team is struggling or a person of such an exceeding talent appears before them, the user is able to activate Breaking Point to make up for that gap in skill between them or to ignite their team's attacking and defensive power. Most sportsmen and women can only use 80% of their power at most but Breaking Point allows them to tap into the 20% of their power they usually can't access, allowing the user to use up to 80 to 100% of their true power.

## Strengths

As decribed before, a massive increase in power can be achieved through **Breaking Point**. All of their abilities are heightened, even the ones that were already extraordinary. **Breaking Point** can be so powerful that both **Terminator Eye** and **Initiator Eye** and even **Dominator Eye** which is the combination of the two eyes stated before, can be rendered futile against **Breaking Point**.

## Weaknesses

Due to the sudden gain in power, not all users of this ability can handle the power they attain, placing a heavy strain on their body, practically rendering them useless if their **Breaking Point** runs out during the match. Also, once a user has experienced their **Breaking Point** powers, it is harder to access the powers again as the user has a feeling of the power they gain and subconsciously want to feel it again but as clearly stated before, a person ***cannot*** activate their **Breaking Point** at will.

As of 2021, she is a nurse working in Tokyo, alongside Nohebi graduate; Mika Yamaka. The first-cousin to Shiratorizawa first-year; Kai Akakura, she would later become one of his closest friends.

## Appearance

Aoi is a petite young woman with pale skin and large, dark emerald green eyes with white pupils, similar to that of her mother Lady Koinatsu; both of them appear to be startlingly beautiful, a trait which Régine calls rather "irritating", as she has to constantly fend people away from Aoi. She is described as having black hair, parted at her forehead with short bangs framing her face. Her hair was partly tied behind her back with a large, dark pink ribbon. She first appears wearing a dark red kimono and hakama tied below her chest; in her subsequent appearances, she has taken to wearing a long, sleeveless white nurse dress tied with a dark, reddish-pink bow around her waist. Additionally, she is often depicted wearing white uwabaki. As of 2021; she is depicted in a long-sleeve double-collared nurse dress.

## Personality

Aoi is a very kind, loving, compassionate, and incredibly strong-willed person, while also maintaining a somewhat airheaded, naïve and sarcastic side to herself. While not overly projecting her strong willpower outwardly, she has a iron steel and a steely temperament that only awakens when Régine is being rather reckless with her body, or disobeying her orders to rest.

Kyodai Seichou

### Height

## Game Stats

### Position

Wing Spiker

**Kyodai Seichou** (せいちょう きょだい, Seichou Kyodai) is the 2nd year Opposite Hitter for Dento High. He values teamwork and is said to be "Dento's Second Battery" as he is not as strong as the ace, but is the second strongest.

## Appearance

Seichou looks super intimidating, with his large height, build, and wingspan, but in reality all of his other features are just harmless. He dyed the front of his blond hair black, and he has pale eyes.

He has often been told that he looks like he's an adult, but this is not true. He still has the characteristics that a 2nd year could have, just with an insane build.

## Personality

Seichou is very prideful, and really likes to shine in the spotlight. Though, he is not extremely passionate about volleyball as some other characters, and this leads him to have the philosophy that those who have distinct talent are above ones who have trained harder. This is why he tried especially hard against Karasuno, as he could sense their raw talent.

He's a quick learner, who's very curious. He wants to be able to be the best, and to him, he has to beat the best. He just really wants to know more to do better.

## Statistics

 Stamina
 Game Sense
 Technique
 Speed

An exceptional player, he is often called a clutch player, who gets better as the game goes on. His spikes got better and better until they were so hard and fast they pushed back players who tried to receive them. However, his true talent is in his strong body. His height, weight, jumping reach, and wingspan is just insane. For example, he was able to read block a spike from Tanaka, despite them being on different sides of Basho, who is a pretty big high schooler. He can jump very high and has very good spikes. However, his weaknesses include his lack of advanced techniques in volleyball and his developing body. If he overexerts himself, he can get weaker and not be able to play, and subbed out with Aito. Thus, Tsukishima used this weakness, making him play too hard so he lost all of his stamina.

Jumping Reach: 342 cm

## Trivia

* He has bad sight, and wears contacts.
* In his free time, he plays UNO.
* His favorite food is rice.
* His current concern: He can't reach his cookie jar.

For the majority of the series, she was a lab experiment and was given the number #34567 - 2A as her name. After the lab that she was born and raised in was discovered modifying young children just barely out of their wombs; the government razed the whole place to the ground, leaving Elaine as the only survivor. Incapable of understanding anything related to the modern world, as she had never been outside for all of her life, she was given to the couple of Tobio Kageyama and Tsuki Oikawa and raised as their daughter. Due to being a Designer Baby, the scientists modified her traits so that she possesses slowed aging and thus her true age can`t be determined by merely looking at her.
Anton Karymsky

## Image gallery

General **Anton Pavlovich Karymsky** is a senior-ranking Russian military official and politician within the XNDUIW community, and appears as a supporting protagonist within the XNDUIW military arc itself.

## Appearances

### XNDUIW Multiplayer

He wasn't really prominent in The Abulinov Party until the cease and desist order was finalized in 2019, which forbade ProxyCyanide from using anything from Nintendo and/or Pokemon. The Abulinov Party was disbanded, and new teams were formed under the new game, XNDUIW Multiplayer.

After staying around for a few days in Chembursk, he moved to Balavashka, and then to Fort Devyushina, but had trips to Moscow, but felt disillusioned about the Russian government's repression of the rest of the team, which forced him to flee Russia, eventually staying in the Karabinsky District his whole life. But during the return trip, he was chased by Russian guards, but managed to break away from the guards and moved without getting caught.

He was promoted to Lieutenant in the newly formed Russian Republic, after gaining influence in the crumbling party that ProxyCyanide ran, crippled with lawsuits and ongoing repression from the Russian government, due to controversies with the Russian president.

### XNDUIW Battle Zone

Some time around May 2022, he was briefly declared missing in action, partly because he was arrested during the Anti-war movement within XNDUIW when the war in Ukraine raged on. He was later freed when Avgustin Stalzhorev bribed guards into paying money for his actual release, considering that he was only jailed for around 3 days. He was allegedly charged with **embezzlement**, though it was likely politically motivated to suppress any political opposition within the Russian Federation itself.
