The film's first trailer started with a flashback of Hinata and Kenma's first encounter. Hinata was ready to go for Karasuno High, while Kenma, despite being a starter, wasn't that interested in volleyball. That said, everything was set to change following their first meeting.

Karasuno High and Nekoma High were rivals and would regularly play each other in practice matches. However, the two teams were yet to face each other in an official game in the Nationals. With the decisive match finally scheduled in the Nationals, the two teams are set to go at each other with everything they have.
