| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I think the pacing of the match is still doing well. Not as intense as I had thought but the focus on the spikes were well detailed especially fo Hinata. One other thing I also liked is the focus on Hinata's eyes. Those intensity. Well I hope Hinata improves by working his hardest even if he isn't the ace. I agree with what his teammates are saying. |

| The main guy is too excited and into fighting against the ace. At the same time, he's jealous. The ex-court prince, in his personality, made him feel better. The adult team released change balls that they lost. They lack in receiving, so they are going to train. It's nice that they show a bit of the opponent team at ED. Camp trip next. |

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| This series give me so many feelings!*.* Can't wait to see next episode! |
    |
| I think I preferred how Kageyama's speech went in the manga but still, good episode! |
| the official MAL hall of fame/cursed comments is now open for business - you are welcome to PM me any potential quotes to include |
| Awesome episode as always! :) Nekoma in the end was Amazing! :) Waiting one more week :'( |
| I prefer Suga and Noya's big smile in the manga better. But I really loved the facial expressions of Hinata this episode, he was so adorableeeeee! NEKOMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA is coming!! <3 |
| LOL Hinata ball to the face Nekoma is coming! :o Enjoyed this episode as well. |
 |
| It was nice seeing the whole team together at the end. Training camp starts next week! |
| Such a heartwarming and emotional episode. Kageyama really understands how Hinata feels and ultimately helped him out get back on track. It was really nice to see Asahi and Hinata have that talk. :) Gosh, I like all the members of the Karasuno volleyball team. As always, loved the animation and beautiful OST. <3 5/5 |
 |
| I just love this anime, it's one of the few which get subs while I am online so I get to comment here first... Kidding, I really love this anime from the bottom of my heart. Hinata with the forehead block xD I loved Asahi's advice to Hinata. Daichi and Asahi are such bros, I love their interactions. Another "awesomely amazing" (as Asahi would call it) episode. 10/10 |
 |
| I'm also hoping for an "Ace of Diamond" like development for the characters, tuning their own skills, and our MC slowly improving to become the team's ace. Episode was decent, not the best but it was match-oriented which I'm all for :P |
 |
| Kageyama has grown into a real friend. Well played off the back of the last episode. |
| When did Kageyama become such a bro? Their friendship was so touching I almost shed some manly tears. And I think Yamaguchi is going to practice that floater serve in secret, he seemed in awe when he saw it performed. |
| Awwww... the bromance :3 Hinata are Kageyama really an amazing combo! Yep..... Hinata got KO-ed lol. Hinata and Kageyama got into a fight because Hinata wasn't paying attention hm. Awww Kageyama was nice for a change :3 bromance. Meh, the neighborhood team won. Too bad, I wanted Hinata to be the ace, oh well... |
| "Let justice be done, though the heavens fall." |
| Hinata envies Asabi. Kageyama snaps Hinata back and his old confidence too! Saying that Hinata is invincible while Kageyama is here!!! Kageyama's speech about Hinata's importance! To make up power by having speed and agility! Hinata's spikes are amazing. |
 |
| Love the anime. I'm just glad it has 25 episodes and not 12. also there is kinda Kuroko no basuke presence in this anime like Kuroko being shadow of Kagami and Hinata making it easy to score with his decoy.but dayum... Kiyoko chan get more screen time already :c |
| BTW can I ask for a spoiler? That blonde person in Nekoma, was he/she girl or boy? :o |
Skypual said: BTW can I ask for a spoiler? That blonde person in Nekoma, was he/she girl or boy? :o Boy!! I don't think that is a spoiler, LOL |
| FINALLYYYYY KUROOMAMA AND DAICHIPAPA ARE GOING TO MEET YASSSS and *coughs* my canon pairing ofc; Hinata and Kenma I love how the anime is still doing great justice to the manga, great, keep up the pace, I.G! I can't wait to see the whole Nekoma team in action (my most favourite team in HQ!!) |
 |
| Hinata is the cutest main character ever ! |
| Lmao that ball to the face! Just when the feels come, something ridiculously funny happens. This is definitely my favorite anime of the season. |

| Hinata was having some doubts but that was all resolved. Those were some good matches. |
 |
| Lol'd at Ukai "What are u guys? Freaks?" When he saw Hinata and Kageyama's combo XD And how he asked Take-chan why didn't u tell me earlier that the current Karasuno is this strong XD Loved the OST as usual :3 A bit too much drama but finally Hinata got rid of his doubts and worries about the decoy-ace thing :D The seniors copying Kageyama and Noya's youth was so lol XD Nekoma is here!! Can't wait ^^ |
 |
| Great episode. Bromance :3 Hinata/Kageyama combo. Amazing spikes. Poor Hinata... That ball to the face. Haha, he fell so weirdly XD Hinata had doubts about his role as a decoy. Kageyama's speech was nice. Nekoma at the end of the credits! LOL at the preview: Noya: Under the same roof with Kiyoko-san... Ryuuu. Tanaka: Noya-san. Noya: Ryuuu. Tanaka: Noya-san. Hinata: Wh-what's going on? Kiyoko: Just ignore them. |
| Hyuga Junpei: “Yeah… I’m confident… Because my teammates will help me out! I can shoot confidently.. because it will be okay even if I miss!” Kagami Taiga: “I don’t know about being the bad guy or whatever. It’s only in stories where titles like that decide the loser. This is our show. We’re the ones who are writing the script.” |
| It was a great episode, but is still a set up episode until the tournament they will compete. Eveyone is enhancing themselves to become more comfortable and more powerful then the other team. |
parfaited said: Ryu Noya-san Ryuuuu Noya-sannnn RYUUUU NOYAAAA-SANNN Yeah, pretty much my reaction too. TRUTH. Ahhhhhh Hinata is so cute I think I'll grow to like him a lot more in the anime. Nekoma though! I'm so excited :-))) |
 |
| How much I love this show. Also, I think the OST is really great, does anyone know when it will come out? |
 |
| Kageyama and Hinata are the duo |
| hinata! nice recieve (with ur head) and thus, the hinata and kageyama pair gets stronger~ lol at tsukki's annoyed face at daichi's hand at the team huddle KEKOMA!!~ KUROOOO~ KENMA~ |
( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ |
| Kageyama and Hinata have become legit friends, it's absolutely adorable. Great episode, preview was funny. |
"Komugi, are you there?" |
| Suga finally gets the praise he deserves <3 |
| nice episode, the team is finally complete and ready for the derby. I liked how Kageyama convinces hinata not to think about being the ace of the team, but to do everything possible for the team scoring and diverting the attention of the opponent. |
 |
StormBoi said: Hinata is the cutest main character ever ! Indeed he is. AHH~ the feels. I'm truly loving every episode of this anime. What gets me is the lovely OSTs and the angles at which they animate seem incredible during the match. I love how they showed Hinata spike the ball as Tobio tossed it to him backwards as he said "As long as I'm here" their friendship is wonderful. Great episode. |
 |
| This show is getting better and better, I might actually read the manga as well :D |
 |
| I like how they included a scene of Nekoma at the end of the ending song. The preview sequence was pretty funny as well Loved that huddle shot Incoming is Kenma and Kuroo |
 |
| the plot is going very well, every episode I get excited to watch more Hinata still has a very weak psychological to be a highlight of the team, but then Kageyama is safe and reliable, the lifter is the brain of the team, he along with Hinata really can become a double invincible Next episode will probably be showing their training, I'm already wondering where the story will |
  |
| lol i still didn't notice EXACTLY how good of a setter he was until this episode xD |
 |
| Kageyama and Hinata getting along more and more. Nekoma is coming. I guess that guy in the end somehow looks like a cat because of his eyes. |
 |
| Asahi is awesome |
 |
| LOL. Loved how they were embarrassed by the older guys saying how cool they were. "Call the toss, Ace!" " As long as I'm here, you're invincible!" Ahaha. That was cute. Great episode as always. |
| Finally. The team is all gathered. Can't wait to see their practice match against Nekoma. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Omg. Yeah T-T At last... <3  |
| The feels, oh my God, I didn't think I could fall in love anymore with this show but I personally think it gets better each episode. Who is the Small Giant? The coach? It's driving me crazy. |
に触 祟ら りぬ な神 し |
| so many bro moments this episode like near the end of the match i wasn't just rooting for one team and simply just enjoying them play vs each other. |
