| Ah Noya-san. That scene was pretty perfect. Glad Sawamura's friend's team managed to score again before losing. |
 |
| The big game has begun! Karasuno vs Dateko |
 |
| Love this episode as much as their previous battle eps. So much mixed emotion, esp the strive to win, the will to fight, the feeling of losing and the hopes getting conveyed on. The scores are perfect as always! The humor are hilarious with the perfect touch. So much it made me getting involve with the discussion thread lol. Looking forward for a great battle between Karasuno vs Dateko! |

"Komugi, are you there?" |
| They conveyed the feelings of those who lost wonderfully. Liked the transitions between the girl and boy teams. |
 |
| I'M SOO PUMPED. Great episode. I was honestly close to tears. I loved the determination of both teams and how it alternated.

| Noya is the cutest!! >.< love how he got to shine a little at the end there. Good episode! They nicely portrayed the feelings of those who lost. So realistic. I simply love it! |
 |
| Great match. They could have wrecked them more, in my opinion. ''If we were in a fiction, we would probably be secondary characters'' Woah, you're right! That's exactly what it is! Jokes aside, it was nice to see the loser side, also the side of those who never succeed, no matter how much they try. Poor captain girl... Now they'll face the wall. With Hinata, they should give a great resistance and probably win the game. Also, from the OP and preview, I guess the girl team will put some noise in the stadium. |

| Wow that first part was incredibly emotional. I wasn't even expecting to cry but for some reason tears just kept coming out. I love the focus of the losing teams, just as with DnA's episode yesterday. The beautiful bgm also never stops being perfect for such scenes. LOL at when Kageyama was "smiling" and then his face when Hinata tells Kageyama that his face looks scary when smiling. Also, great job Noya at the end, he certainly was kakkoi XD |
| This was an amazing epd. Some Feels man! I cant wait for next week! Crows vs Iron Wall FIGHT ON!!! #NeverGiveUp |
| Glorious Titties Nuff Said! Make America Great Again! |
| I've had reservations about this show, but this show truly does have it's moments. |
| the episode was exciting parts as well, both the will to win as the sadness of losing was well presented, did not expect all this commotion in a sports anime the next match will be against one of the favorite teams to win the tournament, I'm already looking forward to see how will the game .. |
  |
| The part where they showed the schools that lost made me a bit emotional ;__; Noya for president! :D He's so cool. Bring on Dateko! |

| My feels go out to the defeated ! just seeing all them got to me a little bit ;_; really do love Nishiya getting everyone's spirits up even if his naming is bad lol |
 |
| Rolling Thunder...AGAIN!! Let's fly Karasuno! |

| Less teary scenes about losers and more actual Karasuno matches plz. |
| Good episode aside from this blunder... team names are on the wrong side. Horriblesubs/CR deliver again. |
| Nice episode but it was sad how the girls' team lost the game But Nishinoya made a funny move the receive xD Loved the episode the next one will be exciting |
To desire some results, one must take actions  |
| Yuu's "Roollingu thunder again!!" had me dying. Can't wait for the next episode |
 |
| That was a qucik match. The feels are too much T_T. Dayum. Noya was so awesome at the end. "Rolling Thunder." BWAHAHA |
| I love the alternation between the Girls' team and Ikejiri. Now a real match is starting. |

jimbob1141 said: hgeronimo said: I think we need a girls volleyball anime. I think it would be quite nice if they just showed more of the girls in this anime, which i hope they do. I'm with you guys. The girls team needs more screen time! Also, you hardly ever see girl's teams in sports anime, at least in a non-backup, serious role. The closest thing I can think of is Chihaya from Chihayafuru, and her constant striving to overcome her limits. I'm a little sad that the Karasuno girls team seem like they'll basically be the boys cheer section from now on. |
| Hinata makes the best faces. Tobio's serves are always going to be awesome. I fangirled <3 I LOVED the parallelism between Ikejiri and the girls' captain. Definitely nice to have some focus on the minor characters. That scene wasn't something I enjoyed a lot in the manga, but it was brilliantly adapted in the anime. |

 |
| Great episode. Great match between Karasuno and Tokonami. Karasuno vs Dateko up next. Nishinoya is so reliable. Cannot wait for next week. |

 |
| ROLLING THUNDER ...... AGAIN!! |
| I really enjoyed the crosscut animation from both Karasuno teams, the emotion of the teams is definitely there |
 |
| How to turn minor characters in relevant characters that can convey you any kind of feelings? This is how. Best episode so far, at least for me. The scenes when they were exchanging blows of balls, framing every time a different team were simply outstanding. I think this episode in terms of technique beated everything else. Also, the end of the episode gave me chills and a huge idiotic smile upon my face. |
 |
| Daichi is so me. He quotes everything I think and that's awesome. Well, the thing which differs, his speeches motivate others more than mine xD Michimiya... Sad for Karasuno's girls' team. Regrets can kill you but they can also make you stronger, its upto you. When Ikejiri said if it was fiction then they would've been extras. "But still we got to play." That transtion was perfect. Damn feelings... "Rolling Thunder Again." xD I love how Haikyuu has respect for the characters who would normally be considered 'mob' characters. Just amazing... |
 |
| Too bad Nishinoya! You still can't get at Kiyoko. |
| Captain has a nice body there :D [spoiler]  |
 |
| It was a nice episode. I liked how it was in the point of view of the losers. That was an interesting touch. |
 |
| Great episode. Nicely portrays the feelings of the losing teams. Haven't seen much from the woman's volleyball team. |
 |
| Rolling thunder AGAIN!! I can never get enough of Noya <3 And aww kageyama blushing! |
| ROLLING....THUNDER!!!! AGAIN!!!! EPIC! Marry me, Yuu |
  |
| Dateko's cheer is still ringing in my head. I guess Nishinoya will become the captain next year ;D |
| I loved how they showed the matches from different sides' perspectives! Also, I'm really enjoying seeing the characters improve both physically and mentally as the series progresses! I can't wait to see the next match!!! |
| This is just excellent,so many feels for a sport anime. |
 |
| 07:58 No.2 <3 09:54 slooowmooo 16:41 dat face 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. |
| The first half focus on the other team and the females was great Can't wait for the game against Date with that build up tension shown later here |
