Line 29:
* [[Sempai-Kohai]]: Chapter 12. Tanaka makes Hinata call him "Tanaka Senpai" while motivating him after a particularly disastrous set from the latter. Observers notice he is probably just want to be called "senpai".
* [[Stealth Insult]]: Chapter 10. Yamaguchi reacts loudly when Kageyama proposes a game's plan involving "big, dumb" blockers "just like Tsukishima", saying it's a insult towards the latter. Tsukishima himself promptly tells him to shut up.
* [[Take That]]: {{Spoiler|The last time we see Toru Oikawa, probably the biggest jerk volleyball player of the whole series, he has decided to play for the Argentinian national volleyball team, a country he has no cultural or blood connection to}}. In international sports, foreign players playing for countries they have no connection to is very controversial and said athletes are widely hated, where they are treated like traitors even outside their native countries. To give an examples of athletes that did such thing during the time the series was published, Diego Costa which refused to play for Brazil and went for Spain during the FIFA World Cup 2014, and several players of Qatar during the 2015 Handball World Cup, where even foreign fans threw their support towards France so a team of "mercenaries" would not win the biggest honor of handball.
* [[Underdogs Never Lose]]: Like many other japanese sports' genre media, averted. Shouyou's improvised team is massacred by the more experienced team they to have to face at the first round.
