Damn the animation and the drawings are garbage. Hope they're just saving budget for more hyped parts.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t it illegal to do that much of noise before the serve? If I’m not mistaken, it’s only allowed before the whistle. After that, the crowd can be adverted. I’m not sure, but I remember it was something like that.

Great OP/ED, as has been par for the course with this show. It's sure good to see it back again, and find out if Karasuno can keep up their streak.

Haikyuu keeps solidifying their claim to having some of the best anime openings/endings for any series.
Great episode with quality animation. Really enjoyed the tedious attention to detail towards form, reaction, etc.

Was there any VA changes this season? Specifically, Ukai-kun's and maybe Saeko's VA?

Ukai's voice was changed in "season 3 episode 9". The first Seiyuu was Tanaka Kazunari, he passed away "Oct 10, 2016". They've replaced him with Egawa Hisao.

Dang! Seeing Hinata and Kageyama's quick attack never grows old. It always makes me excited BUT damn, you gotta give it to the twins for mimicking that one. It was really flawless everyone was shocked. It makes me kinda sad especially the twins arrogant smirk at the end practically saying 'that move isn't really very special'.

I can't wait for the next epi.

I loved the new songs!! One thing that I have to say is as much as I love Bokuto, the dialoguing got a bit tiring for me(the pacing seemed a bit slow). I understand that it's probs to catch us back up to date and talk more to the audience that doesn't really play volleyball but to me these scenes got a bit too long. Honestly not gonna complain about seeing my fave boy more tho...

Loved the episode.

The tension in both the teams and the audience were just sending chills. Great start to the long awaited season . Awaiting new moves during the season as they are going to be tough opponents to beat.

It reminded me of the school days when I used to scream high in the crowd for our team to win and sometimes I think it actually worked.

Why are they cutting costs on serve animations? I was sooooooo excited to see atsumu's serve but was left disappointed... they are also cutting cost by not animating the point of impact when a spiking the ball or blocking it. Small things but they mattered

It's so annoying that the spectators can bring in an entire frickin' BAND to throw off the players. Instruments shouldn't be aloud cause it takes the point away from the game.

true lol i was so annoyed, good thing the taiko squad balanced dat bish out

Fuck those cheering squad man that should be illegal. They should be strict like in tennis matches, everyone should stfu except the player's excessive and exaggerated grunts lol. And ofc those twins can copy Hinata and Kageyama's weird technique, they're twins! They talk telepathically.

I absolutely LOVED the episode! The hype is there as ever!
lolz, I'll never get tired of watching the scene where Hinata forgets to hit the ball...like...ahahahahhaha XD

Ah, Inarizaki seeing Karasuno's duo attacking for the first time and lol, everyone's reaction, especially Kageyama - almost fell for the feint as well XDXDXD

The animation isn't as shiny & smooth, but I don't really care about it to the point it'd impact my joy from watching, so - whatevs, it's just fine.

Can I just kill Inarizaki's fans? That should be illegal to mess with the players concentration & rhythm like that! I wanna kill them all, they're disgusting.

Ok, say what you will, but that was cool - now Karasuno knows how their opponents feel with Kageyama & Hinata's freak attack :D

That was a intense fight, they started it really fast they didn't show any recap so I'm kinda confused, I should probably re-watch the first half of this one.

Those twins were really good they synchronized perfectly, almost seems like a new Hinta and kageyama.

Inarizaki's cheering squad is really distracting and pressuring at the same time!

Finally, Karasuno's cheering squad!! They needed it the most! Huhu

I think that Inarizaki is going to be one of the hardest teams that Karasuno goes up against thus far.

I don't know much about real volleyball rules and etiquette, but they really shouldn't allow the audience to make too much noise, especially when it's clearly there to disturb the opposing team.

Not a fan of this opening, but the ending sounds great. 

The match has begun! This sure seems tough but honestly I felt more pressure in the finals against Shiratorizawa. Although Atsumu sure is a problem.

WTH was that last couple of second OST? that was amazing O_O

at any rate, it seems karasuno gonna struggle against itarazuni like they struggled against shiratizawa. though i'm cheering karasuno, the flags pointing to their lost.

the best moment in this episode though:
*hinata getting excited to serve*
hoshiyou: what kind of serve he's gonna do?
*hinata making normal seve*
hoshiyou: ah
xD

honestly, bringing entire band should be illegal. how it is allowed to disturb the flow of the game?

while this is more "2nd cour", i felt huge upgrade on the art department. though i might not noticed that if i wasn't bing watcher.
as of 1st part, i felt that the ending was just better than the opening. as a matter of fact, i'm more missing first opening lol.

the twins can also do a quick like hinata and kageyama, so that's going to be an interesting to see how it develops

we haven't seen much from the other players yet, no tsukki highlights, so he'll be stepping up in the next few eps and we'll see the ace's 100% serve

also i think they are building up to hinata receiving balls
