The team is getting set. The coach is here and also the Ace!

The coach guy is quite strict and also funny. The game sure blew his mind. And the Ace, he is amazing. He shot the ball through their block. However his shouting "Suga" was quite funny, XD!!!

Pretty cliche story about the guy who doesn't wanna go to the club anymore. Nothing special or new.

how should i put it? it' not the pace, but the amount of talking + character development just feeling too much for a sport match. i dunno much about the pace of volleyball, but as sport anime fan the tense for the playing just felt off. i understand the need for the character development, but the plot direction kinda makes this less sport anime and more slice of life with sport elements lol. take look of major 2nd s2 for example, it had tones of character development but still made the sport being tense and fun as it should be, and that's baseball game which i think considered slower than volleyball. in this episode the ball was just in the air for something like 2min while thinking. again, it's not the pace being slow but the sport of this anime feels like being used for character development rather than sport itself.
i hope i'm clear enough lol.

but though all my complains, it's still enjoyable, and i liked very much that last scene. it's just that as sport anime i expects little more. and again, expecting that once character introduction will be over, the games tension will be much better.

The entire team is together at last. Asahi yelling "Suga, one more!" was one of the best scenes till now. And I am glad we are getting more of Suga too. Overall, loved the episode.

I don't think I cry when I first watch this episode. Now that I'm currently rewatching the series, wow this episode hits me now 🤧

- NOT your usual shounen anime
- Pure comedy? DEAD WRONG
- Treat Gintama as SoL/weekly sitcom especially earlier seasons
- Ep 1 & 2 are for manga readers
- BIG patience for its 'slow' start

A bit too emotional for my tastes, but eh, it's good enough.

Same, well at least they got their Ace back.
Was able to connect more with Asagi and his teammate's feelings this time around. Good for him getting over his psychological trauma, it's not easy getting back up after having your self confidence shattered like that. Man had Volleyball PTSD lol.

Ace's resolution to regain confidence not only in himself but also to trust the rest of his team and realize that he is not alone, accompanied by an emotional soundtrack, make the chapter a masterpiece.

I hate that I love this. It's so cringe how they talk about simple, basic gameplay like it's something profound or life changing but that "SUGA!!!!!" still hit me like a truck. 5/5 episode.
