| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Holy shit, they will be fighting some tough opponents..  Still, it was a refreshing episode. The impersonations made me lol. The banner this episode was awesome though imo and Kiyoko was cute as hell. I also liked the new ED song this episode. |
 |
| Tanaka and that girlfriend thing.. LOL. Kiyoko! So cute when she was blushing XD LOL at the way the tears first came out of the guys eyes and when they were completely out of control. They've got some seriously tough opponents to face.. |
 |
| I'M SO PUMPED FOR THE NEXT FEW EPISODES! LETS DO THIS loving the ending song |
 |
| No OP. Introducing other enemy teams to prepare for interhigh. Intermission music changed! lol @ solo play by yakuza-like guy. Trying out new formations and technique. As well as that guy who never get the chance to play after that "entrance" game. lol @ everyone except freshmen crying when manager saying "Gambare". New OP aired as ED. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Tanaka-sempai and his girlfriend xD I can't! Kiyoko! So cute! And guys reaction xD Gonna miss old OP... ;( Can't wait to see next episode :) |
    |
| Oh man this episode was hilarious!! Tanaka doing the girlfriend/boyfriend impersonation and the guys' reactions to Kiyoko saying 'do your best' was way too funny. xD Man, I'm seriously so excited for the next episodes. Inter-high matches TIME! Some tough opponents but Karasuno is super pumped and ready to fight. I really like all the Karasuno volleyball club members really want to win and are working on their skills. I mean, Tadashi personally went to see that guy and asked him to teach him the floating serve. I really like how they showed a lot about Captain Daichi and his friend from middle school and also Yui. Man, I kinda ship Daichi and Yui. xD Also, the new ED sounds great the OST is amazing as always. Kiyoko blushing was also super cute. xP 5/5 |
 |
| Inter-high time :D Can't wait for them to play Oikawa again. |
| That banner!!! ♥♥♥♥ I liked their different combi with suga and hinata and ace and kageyama. Lol at kageyama speed at getting the hand signs. |
| Ahhhh, one of my fav moment of Haikyuu is probably going to be animated in the next ep, I can't wait for that. Tanaka is SOOOOOOOO funny! Yay for Sukima Switch in the ED! <3 |
| This episode made me laugh with Tanaka talking about what girlfriends do before a tournament and all of them bursting into tears. I'm so excited for the upcoming matches. |
 |
| There going to train really hard if they want to be the other competitors. Shimizu blushing when she said Do your best we really cute. |
| Fly! Shimizu cheering for them! Their face is priceless xD. Tanaka was hilarious while acting. Hoping to see some action in the court next week! |
 |
| Tournaments gonna be so epic ! :D It was funny to see Kageyama, but damn he's creepy with baseball ! And also when he was with Hinata at the bathroom (always a dangerous place) ! :P Shimizu is so cute. :O Their reaction xD |
| Great episode! Lots of funny moments, something that Haikyuu!! does very well. The up coming matches look to be really exciting. I want the next episodes now!! |
 |
| This anime impresses me with how it can still be so entertaining between matches. I bet Tanaka's seiyu had a ton of fun with this one. |
 |
| That build up, next episodes are going to be amazing, can't wait. Tanaka's impersonation of a girlfriend was funny as hell. |
| Tanaka cracks me up. |
| the official MAL hall of fame/cursed comments is now open for business - you are welcome to PM me any potential quotes to include |
| As Always Haikyuu!! is amazing! Loved everything in this episode! Now for the Inter-High! Tanaka Girlfriend impersonation was Epic as only Tanaka can be! XD |
SandyBoi said: Tanaka and that girlfriend thing.. LOL. LOL, best thing ever. haha. |
| Kiyoko! KAWAIIII <3<3<3 Lol'd so much at their reactions XD Good ep. Really Loved the build up :D Introducing the teams to be feared and stuff like that. Also Ryu and his acting as a couple was hilarious XD |
 |
| that banner. my tears. nice build up episode, I want to watch the match noooow～ maybe it's because I'm not used to it yet but previous ending seemed better... |
 No Blood! No Bone! No Ash! |
| Wow that tanaka impersonation. And the ending with kiyoko, i was laughing so fucking hard! This is hilarious xD but next episode, time for serious shiet, excited :P |
| Does anyone else need a doctor to confirm that someone without a head is dead? |
| Man I love this anime. It never fails to deliver. |
| "There's no shame in falling down... true shame is to not stand up again!" "Aah? Of course I won't miss!" "My blood tastes like Iron." "Run through the tape in life! Never give up! Run through the tape!" |
| Lol, Torino... that's a funny way to read it... And the captain has a friend in the opposing team it seems. Poor Asahi... who just doesn't look like a true ace T.T Damn... so many strong opponents... I can't wait for the matches to start! Ohooo, the captain of the girl's volleyball team, she's cute :3 Hinata, your desire to spike any kind of toss is really heartwarming T.T Tanaka... you so silly... Kiyoko-san is soooo cute :3 LOL at everyone's reaction XD. Awww, Hinata is going to play on the same level as Kageyama, no matter how strong he is. |
| "Let justice be done, though the heavens fall." |
| I liked the 1st ED better... |
| As usual, I couldn't stop laughing! Dear lord, these boys... Super pumped for the first prelim inter high match! |
| She said Do your best :'D And I knew Yammaguchi wanted to learn the floater. Hopefully he becomes an important team mate. |
| The bracket for the preliminaries are all set! They all look really strong too. Tanaka's skit and him not being formal in Pep Rally. xD Everyone is working really hard in their own way. The third years crying after Shimizu's cheer :) Their passion and dedication; can't wait for the preliminaries to start! |
 |
| LOL loved the guys' reaction after what Shimizu said. Now I'm fired up as well. Can't wait for the tournament to start. |
 |
| I think this episode just ruined me (as always) Kudos to Production IG |
| Epic Kiyoko cheer. Would've expected all of them to nosebleed. Can't wait for the matches to start. Would like to see some matches of the female volleyball club too though. |
| I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN |

 |
| The char.design for the girls is growing in me, it's really so much detailed. But that is thanks to Kiyoko too. Also, the OST is really amazing, it keeps surprising me, and btw does anyone know when the full album OST will come out? Vexper said: Tanaka cracks me up. Every damn time. AzureAlert said: This anime impresses me with how it can still be so entertaining between matches. Yeah, every episode is a wave of unlimited fun, even if it's just simple training or SOL. |
 |
| fuck shimizu was to cute this episode and tanaka still the best of the team |
| Awesome episode. I really loved the introduction of all the strong schools and the rivalry between them. And also Tanaka best Girl ! :D |
 |
| Kiyoko was so damn cute when she was blushing! The guys' reactions to her little cheer were hilarious. Looks like Karasuno is going to have to play some really good teams in the inter-high preliminaries. |
| Nishinoya and Tanaka are my brotp, srsly. |
| Was it just me or did Hinata sound strange especially when he finishes his sentences in some parts. Tanaka always being the comedic relief. :D Totally pumped for the inter-highs! |

| DANG Tanaka has a great bod Cute ep as always. New OP next week? |

| Sawamura arc? Hell yeah! I love how there is as much focus on weak teams as there is on strong teams, that's what makes Haikyuu lovable, everyone gets a chance. Lol, I thought they were looking at porn. Guess that girl is going to end up with Daichi, they are a nice couple. Now I want an anime about the girls team of Karasuno... Man I love this anime so much! What a cute grandma. Tanaka, why are you so hilarious? I like Chikara's reaction, I am starting to like him as well. Kageyama is so enthusiastic xD Yamaguchi is striving as well. Everyone is working so hard... It pumps me up. Just give me more Shimizu, I don't demand anything! That's the moe-est thing I have watched all month, damn it. There goes my heart, good bye. |

| Visual quality dipped down but despite that it's still as entertaining as ever. Tanaka is the best girlfriend. He's the best at everything tbh. OG-3 said:  what an amazing duo |
| Funny as always :') Can't wait for the next episode! |
| Every episode of this anime is good. |
| finally some little development for Kiyoko, verry cute,,. Crack me up with those tear dropping, didnt see that coming.. This team is more developed than Seirin.. |
 |
| Wow I thought Shimizu was more cold hearted. That was so cute. Great setup episode. Some tough battles are ahead. I'M SO HYPE. |
