| DAT SAVE. Such intensity in this episode. I love how the match ended. There wasn't some crazy ass move that helped them overcome Dateko. It was just the fact that they KEPT TRYING and their spirits didn't dwindle. In fact, they seemed to burning hotter and hotter as the match went on. Asahi truly is an ace. He calms my nerves lololol. I love how absolutely Shounen this anime is. The rivalry is so good. And the opponents aren't portrayed as JUST opponents. The viewer feels for them, too. We feel for the third years and we feel for the teams who put everything into what they did and still lost. Just Just because we are following Karasuno doesn't mean that there aren't other hard-working and talented teams. This anime shows that. It shows a lot of passion in basically every team. LOVE IT. |
| Ninja Noya-san took the highlight this episode! |
| When did this anime got so awsome? Ah, yeah, right from the begginning. Another amazing episode. |
 |
| ow big match of Karasuno against Dateko, the focus of this episode came out a little of both protagonists and also showed other jogarores, but I still think Kageyama need a little more prominent, being the brains of the team and making incredible plays deserves more featured .. |
  |
| It's a mistake to watch this after Baby Steps and Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun. A bit like going downhill, if still on a hill. (⌒-⌒; ) Glad to see strategizing is still taking place even if behind the scenes. Tbh, it's rare one is surprised in Haikyuu!!, so I like that a lot. The imagery illustrating the difference in purposes between Hinata and Tsukishima was heavy-handed but nonetheless beautiful and fitting. Hinata (日向) = sunny place, Tsukishima (月島) = moon...island(?) rotfl Am still desirous of a little more suspense in this show, or, some meaning beyond winning and the sport. Something to make it personal (like it was in the beginning w/Hinata and Kageyama). But otherwise it's still enjoyable, especially now that the sport everyone is so obsessed about is getting into the swing of things. |

| Great ending to this arc. Oshii said: Nishinoya was fantastic! Highlight of the episode! That leg block or whatever it's called :P parfaited said: Haikyuu does not disappoint. What will I do when this ends!? We sit together and have a prayer circle for season 2. LOL Wildflame said: When did this anime got so awsome? Ah, yeah, right from the beginning. This is one of those few shows where I'm say: You never disappoint <3 |
| HIS FREAKING FOOT. That was awesome. I didn't expect that in the slightest. Asahi finally got through the iron wall on his own without a decoy. Chantelle96 said: So much this.DAT SAVE.

tsudecimo said: Me too that save by Nishinoya was insane didn't even know your feet were allowed for keeping the ball upNice episode. Nishinoya is definitely the highlight of the episode, he is my second favorite character after Tanaka. |
 |
| Nishinoya's save was great. Never knew you could use your feet to make a touch. |
 |
| That was such a good ep asdfkjsdlkfj Noya's leg receive..... too cool ;-((( I feel like it's been forever since I heard Tsukki speak, lmao. ......I love this show so much. |
 |
| My word that leg receive! |

| Good game! Nice to see Asahi step up |
| This show just keeps getting better! It might just pass up NGNL in my eyes as best Spring anime. the Crows have flown over the Iron Wall. What a match, and what a series so far! #FLY #Karasuno #NeverGiveUp |
| Glorious Titties Nuff Said! Make America Great Again! |
| And they won! Still pleased that it took two episodes for it to happen too. A lot more action than humor this time around but action it was! Great episode and still wanting more! |
 |
| Nishinoya is so cool wow |
Crez said: So I got back to this series from skipping 5 episodes (thought it was moving too slowly) and the only thing i haven't caught on to is what they said at the end. What are the signals they are talking about?? Thankful for explanation. I wanna get back into it ^^ You mean signals in volleyball in general or Hinata/Kageyama's signals ? If it's the 2nd one I won't spoil you since you'll have the answer in next episode (or the one after) If it's the signals in general : In volleyball the setter exchanges signals with the other players about what the next move/attack will be, where it will be, it may look like they just jump like that and the setter follows but in fact they (most of the time) plan it few seconds before (like for example if the setter put his two thumbs down it could mean "next we'll do an A-quick", if he shows 3fingers it could be "here we'll use a C-quick" ..... I think every setter is free to have his own signals) If I'm not wrong it can also be the other way around hitters=> signals => setter Like those signals for example: [spoiler]  [/spoilers] |

| Glad they won! I am not sure but maybe there is just something wrong with my eyes because I noticed that some of the characters' faces for this episode seems inconsistent and off at some angle. Hehe. Anyway, looking forward to the next match! |
| that movement by Nishinoya reminded me Sergio Dutra from the Brazilian volleyball team, great match, asahi taking responsibility and confidence from being the ace was great too. |
 |
| I just started reading the manga because of the anime and noticed that there wasn't even a girls volleyball team noted in the manga... not in the first 80 chapters anyway.... Considering that they aren't exactly eye candy.... what exactly is their purpose in this show anyway? |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Definitely a great episode as per usual, I loved how Asahi was the one who finished the last point and the OST though played frequently really gets to you. I wonder what's going to happen when the 3rd years leave. But until then, FLY! |

If you're talking about Karasuno Girls Volleyball Team, then yes it is in the manga since they mentioned it quite early like in Chapter 36 till Chapter 40. Other than that, Anyways, it was a great episode! I loved Nishinoya's save. He was so awesome in this episode. |

| That Nishinoya's save.. was epic. |
 |
| YOOOOOOO that was a super intensive episode, kept me on the edge of the chair for a good while. The music fit everything PERFECTLY, I can't wait to get my hands on dat OST. Also Asahi and Nishinoya are awesome ;_; And Aone wanting to handshake Hinata was really cute :D |
| yup this is finally entering my fav list.. don't even care thats it's not finished yet, unless they make a shitty ending (and i don't care if they leave me on a cliffhanger for S2) this will not lose a single point. Nishinoya, you're a god. |
 |
| What a conclusion to the match!!!! Fave moment was the Noya san save!!!!!!!!!!! XD |

| 00:54 sugoi ne 10:25 heyy <3 12:10 u sure? 16:09 ike, Eesu!! 17:55 and you're a Saiyajin 19:26 nee, goukonshiyou ze, neechantachi 7/10 for this episode. |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| I love how the intense moment scenes are directed in this series. Someone deserves a medal. |

They are in fact Canon! How in the hell did you read 80 chapters and didn't remember seeing them? O_O |
| PLEASE HELP ME! what is the name of the song/OST at around 12min 30sec of the episode that starts right after hinata scores the match point? |
 |
| Got goosebumps, utterly loved this episode. Every detail of Asahi's motivation was explained carefully, that's just awesome.

 |
| Wow that was a great episode, very hype. That save was epic, was on the edge of my seat! |
| Everyone's talking about Noya's save, and I agree that was an amazing scene, but I also liked the part where it showed Hinata as the sun and Tsukki as the moon. Their respective symbols glowing underneath them looked really cool. I also find it interesting how I've read through the manga a couple times already but each and every episodes never fails to impress me. Such a good series. c: |

I've read the manga but yet the episodes still fill me with such emotions and convey great feelings. I also rewatch episodes and never tire of any of it. |
|
| What a great episode for Asahi and Nishinoya |
 |
| Nice end to the match, Nishinoya and Hinata really shined during the match And Aone was a good sport at the end The third years got to deal with their trauma finally |
| Exciting episode. That last spike was amazing. The animation is so good. |
 |
| Nishinoya is definitely the backbone of the entire team. That motherfucking save though. |
| Nishinoya is the real MVP this episode lol, sickkk |

| Just an FYI. The foot thing wasn't a legal way to save until 2010. Which is why most of us older people were confused. When we did Volleyball in school the rules stated that you could not use the lower part of your body. That's since changed. I also think gym coaches just didn't want kids kicking the balls all over the place. |
