Coach Fefe de Giorgi on the 12-player roster in the Olympics:
"FIVB needs to put an end to this ridiculous rule. We go to tournaments with 14 players, but when it comes to the Olympics, they want us to make it 12. This is disrespectful to the sport and to us. How can you suddenly cut two hardworking players?"
LOUDER, COACH. LOUDER.

Papa and Mama Nishida were very shocked when Koga was in their house because she was the top player who they could only see on TV.
Yuji: We are dating~
Mama: with whom?
Yuji: Sarina Koga~
Mama and Papa: Ha? Did we hear it wrong? Say it again? Are you lying?
Both of them couldn't believe that Yuji and Sarina were indeed dating 😆
Sarina Koga announced through Instagram that she will retire after the Paris Olympics! 😭
"Thank you again for your support. I would like to inform you all of my decision. I have decided to retire after the Paris Olympics 2024.
I started playing volleyball in the second grade of elementary school. With the help of everyone, I was able to continue playing volleyball until the age of 28. All of the meetings I had with people in the world have made me the person I am today. I am truly grateful. I am planning to hold a retirement press conference after the Paris Olympics. I will fight for the Paris Olympics with everything I have. I look forward to your continued support until the end.
Sarina Koga"
