Mods

Natsu

Heyy, I’m Natsu, part-time student, full-time brainrotter. I’m obsessed with writing and incapable of keeping my estimated word counts, and that's about all there is to know. I’m really excited to work with you all!!<3I tried to come up with a character I would most likely move in with, but after a whole two seconds of contemplating, I’ve come to the conclusion that I’d simply need a huge castle, so that every single one of them could fit it—and a very good insurance on top of that probably.

Tessa

Hello everyone, I’m Tessa and I'm either drowning in work or drowning in my WIPs. Writing, watching anime and writing about anime stuck with me since childhood and I’ve been tortured by too many ideas ever since. I'm looking forward to share a home with all of you again and wish you a great time :)I’ve only joined the Haikyuu fandom in 2021, but I fell so hard that I lost count of how many children I adopted at this point. But if I had to decide who to pick as a roommate… I’d probably spend hours in Kenma’s room to play video games and fangirl about random stuff until he kicks me out. Asahi and Akaashi give me some nice domestic vibes, so they’d be the reliable people that keep everything running smoothly. Oh, and Suga for any emotional support one could ever need.

Kaiyou

Hi there, I’m Kaiyou! I’m just a guy who loves getting into fandoms several years late and then having nonstop brainrot about all characters. Talk to me about the Karasuno first years if you need nine hours to waste; I’ve done it before and I’ll do it again.I’d probably be able to live pretty well with Kuroo just because he’s had years of experience dealing with Kenma playing video games 24/7. Just have someone to patiently remind me that eating is important after playing games a little too long.

Evan

Hey, I'm Evan :) I get silly anime hyperfixations and draw the same characters for years. I've spent a few years trapped in the Haikyuu!! wormhole and I'm happy to return to this event as a graphics mod!If I could, I'd 100% move in with Hanamaki Takahiro. We'd realistically get nothing done, but at least we'd have a hell of a good time.

Sapphire

Hello!! I am Sapphire, and I’ve been throwing myself headfirst into Haikyuu!! fandom events for a few months now. I have been a fandom writer for several years, and I occasionally draw, too. I’m very excited to work with you guys!!When it comes to rooming with a Haikyuu!! character, I will have to go with Tsukishima for 2 reasons. First, he’s probably a very chill person to live with. Second, because he’s in my top 2, and the idea of living with Oikawa sounds like a nightmare.
