He has indeed sacrificed a lot. He has gotten used to living alone, doing the same routine everyday, eating the same food everyday… & if you ask him if he’s happy living that kind of life, he always gives the same answer: ‘Yes… for volleyball.’ All for volleyball
This iconic fake set by Ran to Yuki during Tokyo Olympic was the reason I became a fan of RJN. It was literally the starting point of my obsession with watching volleyball. Thank you and Happy Birthday, Ran!🎂🥳
Keep flying, Rampee!🏐
Japan is still unsure for the qf spot, but here are the scenarios for Japan to qualify:
1. 🇦🇷 beats 🇩🇪
2. 🇯🇵🇺🇸 in full sets!
3. 🇨🇦 🇷🇸 in full sets!
4. 🇧🇷🇪🇬 in full sets!
Ganbatte Japan! 🇯🇵🐉

Too many what-ifs, but if it’s not meant to be, it will never be… But on a brighter side, you still have a chance for bronze! Rest well, regroup and go for that podium, team U40 daddies!! 🇺🇸
so this is Yuji's first time standing on the platform with the rest of RJN to receive a podium finish medal??! OMG!😭😭
*avc 2021 - not on the lineup (injured?)
*vnl 2023 - not there during the medal ceremony
