Canon
Daichi and Suga are both members of the Karasuno high school volleyball club. They have a lot of canon factors, making them a strong pair. Firstly, they're both 3rd years and also in the same class, Class 4. Secondly, Daichi's the captain while Suga's the vice-captain. Thirdly, Daichi's a wing spiker and Suga's a setter, making them have the setter/hitter relationship. In addition, Daichi's jersey is No 1 and Suga's jersey is No 2.

Throughout the series, these two have a strong friendship, off and on the court. Their personalities are quite similar, both being friendly, kind and also firm when their underclassmen are misbehaving. As they are both 3rd years, this is their last year to succeed in the high school vollyball circuit and to play with each other on the same team which they helped build.

Season 1
At the start of Season 1:, when Suga's subbed in for Kageyama, Suga tells Daichi to speak up more, as he's been quiet from the start. This shocks Tanaka and Asahi, as they both think that Suga's the only one who can lecture Daichi. This shows that they have a strong bond with each other. Although they don't have a lot of events together, they help their team become stronger, being the sturdy foundation.

Season 2
At the end of Season 2 Episode 16 Daichi collides with Tanaka when they both dive to get the ball before it hits the floor. Daichi is motionless for a few moments, shocking his teammates including Suga. Whilst Daichi leaves the match due to a possible concussion and spitting out a tooth, Suga encourages Chikara, who is the only person they have to fill Daichi's position.
