How Do Kageyama And Oikawa Know Each Other?
Oikawa was Kageyama’s senior in Kitagawa Daiichi. Kageyama looked up to Oikawa and wanted to become an outstanding setter like him. However, their relationship got strained with time. Their relationship became tense and they both tried to best the other one. Oikawa prides himself on his ability to bring out the best in his setters. He alters his tosses according to his spikers’ strengths and needs. This, however, did not help him when Karasuno defeated Seijoh and Oikawa could not go to nationals and as that was his third year, he could not try again.
The main reason for Oikawa and Kageyama’s strained relationship is Oikawa’s dislike for him. Oikawa dislikes Kageyama and it is quite visible in the entire anime of ‘Haikyuu!!‘. Let’s find out the reason for his dislike.
Why Does Oikawa Dislike Kageyama?
Oikawa dislikes Kageyama because of his natural talent. He believes that no matter how hard he works or how many hours he practices, he will always be bested by someone like Kageyama who is a natural and is supposedly a genius.
It is not that Oikawa is not talented, he is extremely gifted and is an amazing setter. However, that does not stop his insecurity. When he first met Kageyama in junior high, he saw the amount of talent Kageyama had, which far surpassed his own and his jealousy and insecurity began there. Oikawa had an experience that Kageyama did not but his skills and natural ability were leaps and bounds ahead of Oikawa’s. Not only that, but Kageyama also worked very hard to improve himself and Oikawa believed it was really easy to surpass him.
He was scared of Kageyama to the point he almost slapped him. He was stopped by his teammate Iwaizumi. For Oikawa, Kageyama represents everything he doesn’t have. While Kageyama has both natural talent and instinct, Oikawa only has instinct. This makes Kageyama his superior in Oikawa’s eyes. This is the reason Oikawa dislikes Kageyama in ‘Haikyuu!!‘
