__Introduction:__
Taichi Kawanishi is a second year middle blocker at Shiratorizawa Academy.

__Personality:__
He doesn't talk to his teammates very often, and appears mostly emotionless, only looking annoyed on occasion. He has been seen crying once. He doesn't seem to put much effort into his playing and sometimes accidentally lets a ball in; however, since he's a starting member in Shiratorizawa, his abilities shouldn't be too low. Tendō has noted that Kawanishi has an eclectic and more analytical blocking style, which the third year's a little annoyed by; Kawanishi would use guess blocking on occasions and switch back to read blocking when needed. He also won't fight any uncertain battles.
