Aone Takanobu

Personality:   Despite coming off as intimidating from his physical appearance, Aone is actually very kind-hearted and even-tempered. He dislikes when his team members argue and is usually the one to stop them from escalating further, as shown when former captain Moniwa relies on him to stop Futakuchi and Kamasaki from fighting. He is also very respectful, which can be seen when he greets Hinata by bowing despite the latter being a year younger than him. Aone is shy around strangers and minds the opinion others have about him. He is almost always silent, thereby surprising his teammates when he talks. During matches, Aone is calm and composed even during difficult situations. He is very determined and solely focused on stopping the opponents, taking his job as a blocker to heart. It is noted that Aone has a habit of "locking on" to other team's aces as they are his natural opponents[1].Aone, together with the rest of Date Tech team, faced off against Karasuno in the 68th Prefecture Sporting Competition Volleyball Tournament the past March before the start of the story[2]. They lived up to their reputation as the "impregnable fortress" when they delivered a crushing defeat to Karasuno[3]. According to Sugawara, all of Asahi's spikes were completely and utterly blocked, crushing the ace in the process. Aone, being the vital component to Date Tech's iron wall, played a central role in their team's victory.
