I love how Kiyoko's all warmed up with the team now. You can really tell that she's into the club and not just as someone who is able to speak without nervousness.

It feels like they showed how Kiyoko feels (S1) through Yachi with her thoughts about being able to keep up with the club.

and enough comparison, she looks to be a blessing for the volleyball club as well! Loved that 'shojo manga' moment lol
That poster looks so amazing, Hinata may just feel that he's on his way to being the Little Giant that he wants to be!

Shipping Yachi x Hinata. That's all I have to say.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

I'm really starting to like Yachi and I love how Hinata's passion is positively influencing her.
Like someone said earlier this anime has such a positive attitude it brings a smile to my face every time.

This episode was focused on developing Hitoka as a character, and I think it successfully accomplished that goal. She definitely started gaining some confidence by the end of the episode, thanks to Hinata, but she obviously still has some growing to do in that regard.

But Hitoka's mother sure came across as rather cold for most of the episode. I really enjoyed seeing her reaction when Hitoka announced her intention to be a manager for Karasuno's boys' volleyball team.

The episode ended with a perfect cliffhanger, right when the final exams are just about to be handed back. So now the big question going into next time is, will all the members of the team do well enough on their exams to be able to participate in away games?

Has the Small Giant's identity ever been revealed? That's him in the previews, right?

Tanaka's face at the end was brilliant. XD

Awesome episode as usual, the game was really cool to watch as well and I can't wait for the practice matches to begin. Seeing Yachi and her mother interact was also amusing, that poster was 11/10 btw.

That last scene with Tanaka in that pose had me cracking up!

The OP singer is such a belieber...

That scream. Definitely one of the gentlest screams I have ever heard. Yachi and her seiyuu are made for each other.. and we all know Yachi's is my waifu and we totally had a high school romance with each other.

11/10 yet again. Everyone is so perfectly in-character...

Episode satisfactory grafting Yachi occurred in a gradual and constructive, everything deserves praise as door characterization in character and makes it an integral part of the cast, also Kiyoko this season also showing he is giving its evolution. Narrative that sees, however, other events, in doing so, the story does not stop; for me this season is progressing well. Drawings and animations beautiful and well made.

Hooray!

Shouyou's genkiness is really contagious, after all: even the very reserved Yachi found the inner strength to stand up to her mom and proudly affirm her conviction (with the whole subway station as the audience, no less). Further proof that she's much more like Shouyou than she imagines; she just hasn't realized her full potential yet.
Shouyou facing his own picture was another highlight of the episode. Even though he's always been so hellbent on becoming "cool" like the Little Giant or so many other players he admires, I think taking a good look at himself finally made him aware of how cool he already is (or at the very least of how cool he's become over the course of the first season's 25 episodes).

The focus on a newcomer manager was refreshing, it's rare to see the managers get so much love and take the spotlight. Lol @ Hitoka when she shouts in the subway, she's proving to be really amusing. The poster was great, definitely an attention grabber!

talk about a slow pacing, that season really is focusing on anything but this with the exams and hitoka etc. i'd actually prefer to see much more matches instead. i'm not against some character development episodes however if each 'not volleyball related' topic get's the amount of two episodes there is the risk that things won't wrap up towards the end giving a nice conclusion to the show.

Best of all, Yachi and Hinata's interactions. Hinata, obliviousness aside, really was serious when it came to Yachi's problem, and I loved how he inspired her to do what she wants even if she doesn't have a reason to. I loved the comparison they made with losing and hunger. And I became at awe when Hinata spoke the words"At this rate, you can't move forward." Goddam Hinata, why must you stir people's hearts without realizing it? This is not a shoujo manga, get with the program! But yeah, I ship Yachi x Hinata so much. I haven't felt this strongly over a ship in a long time and it's only been 3 episodes!



uh don't you think you're taking this too far? just a little?
--------
boring ep. yaichi's mother design is trying so hard to be beautiful she looks so freaking ugly. the storyline of yaichi was stupid. she could never talk to her mother until someone she hasn't known for a week comes up to her and says "Talk to your mother."

seriously? snore.

When did that girl become the main character? Why should I care about the problems of a character introduced two episodes ago, and who isn't even on the team?

Today's match lasted maybe two minutes, the rest I couldn't care less about. I hope they show the guys finally playing, or this season is going to be a total letdown.

Gosh, this second season has had me crying with laughter so far. When did the comedy aspect get so good? XD

Great, great episode for Yachi- it's so nice to see a female manager with characterisation and development, as opposed to just being the obligatory piece of PLOT in what would otherwise be a complete sausage-fest.
Her interactions with her mother were nice too, and I'm glad their little communication issues got sorted out in the end.

Also, everyone be shipping Hinata x Kageyama but I am now a staunch supporter of Hinata x Yachi. Like, after this episode how could you not?

Away games are gonna be starting very soon it seems...so I'm pretty excited!
Too bad I prolly won't be able to marathon for a few more days because life ¬_¬
