The numbers behind 12 familiar V.League names

Huge scoring totals and hundreds of blocks describe different contributions. Look across scoring, appearances and defence.

Kunihiro Shimizu's profile lists 6,213 career points across 432 matches. Add a 51.8% attack rate and 431 blocks, and the scale of his contribution becomes clearer: sustained court time accompanied by sustained scoring.

Tatsuya Fukuzawa recorded 3,922 points with a 51.3% attack rate. His 58.1% serve reception rate adds a different dimension; the scoring and reception figures together show contributions on both sides of a rally.

Yu Koshikawa amassed 3,669 points and an 11.8% serve efficiency. In 2016-17 alone he scored 297 points in 21 matches, including 25 aces. That single season gives texture to the career totals.

Takahiro Yamamoto played 1,013 sets and scored 3,419 points. More than a thousand sets speak to the accumulation of court time behind a career total, a figure worth noticing alongside the points.

Kohta Yamamura's 508 blocks and 55.7% attack rate stand side by side. Together with 1,856 career points, they show why his impact at the net deserves more than a glance at scoring alone.

Nobuharu Saito's season records reach back to 1999-00. His profile shows 354 blocks and 1,587 points, connecting an early chapter of league history to the same statistics we read today.

Points are only one part of the picture. Sets, reception and blocks reveal other kinds of impact.

Kana Oyama scored 1,195 points in 100 matches. Her 2004-05 season included 27 matches and 104 sets; opening the season record makes that career total feel less abstract.

Megumi Kurihara's profile lists 321 matches, 933 sets and 3,401 points. Follow her season records and teams to see the different chapters behind a single career scoring figure.

Saori Kimura recorded 4,463 points across 1,046 sets, alongside a 68.2% serve reception rate. Scoring and reception together reveal the breadth of her work on court.

Yoshie Takeshita played 286 matches and 1,048 sets. Her 477 points are only one measure of a setter's contribution; the long appearance record invites a closer look at the years spent directing play.

Erika Araki's totals include 1,329 blocks, 5,021 points and 1,579 sets. In 2020-21 alone she made 63 blocks in 81 sets. The season figure helps explain how an extraordinary career total took shape.
