Kenji Arita (Ushijima's SA) plays volleyball with his team in Kanto Spring Tournament 2013 ♡

"To bring a manga character to life by playing their physical flesh and blood persona carries enormous pressure and is a huge responsibility, but as a single actor, it’s a task I want to face sincerely and wholeheartedly."
"When I played volleyball in middle school and high school, we were national champions, and when I played in college, we ranked third in the country, so I want to make the best use of those skills."
"As a fan of the manga, Ushijima Wakatoshi is my favorite character to have appeared in Haikyuu, and he’s the character I most wanted to play."
"Silent and sincere. As the powerhouse behind three consecutive trips to Nationals, he has true strength, and is overly serious, but that is how we see that he’s a bit of an airhead too. To have that nickname from his teammates shows that he’s still easy to befriend, and I think that’s wonderful."
"I’m going to play Ushijima Wakatoshi to the best of my ability, so please give us your support!"
-Kenji Arita

hey guys! ICYMI, Arita-san's speech on playing the role of Ushiwaka is in the description. i admire this guy a lot!
fun fact: he ran for Mr. Japan before he took on the role of Ushiwaka in HPEH. so it's kinda cute that (coincidentally) Hinata calls Ushiwaka "Japan!" both in the anime and stage play 😊
