That was an interesting finale. First of all, I like how he show started with the wings as a form of symbolism.

I suppose the aftermath of the match wasn't pleasant for everyone since a loss is still...well a loss. Anyways, I think they will have another chance to redeem themselves. But yeah, despite having a bit of depressive moments, I thought the overall series had great energy both on and off the field.

Rating this show a solid 8/10. I recommend reading the manga as well as it's pretty good.

NamiDai's character vs. his goal, while Karasuma being depressed from losing to NamiDai's character's team. As well as those adults remember their games.

They, even the 3rd years, still come to practice. So NamiDai's characte's teamr lost. Practice toward one more game.

I was hoping for any announcement, but not as of now.

Ya'll don't even know how much I love this anime. 10/10. Perfect score.
The beginning sequence in this episode was truly beautiful. I had to pause and go back to watch it again. All of those pure emotions from Shoyo and Tobio. I truly feel their pain and struggle. I have said countless times that the music is wonderful and captures each moment perfectly. Personally I really enjoyed this wrap up episode it was a great ending. Especially when Shoyo repeated those words that he said so often at the beginning of the series. I will definitely miss watching this every weekend, I looked forward to it every time because it always leaves me satisfied and wanting more.
I'm so sad that it's over. Here's to a second season! OSU!

Really feeling it this episode.
All the pain they've all felt.
3rd years sacrificing their study time for practice for the Spring tournament.

Was hoping to see an announcement for a 2nd season at the end of the episode, but that wasn't the case. :(
Will miss this.

10/10 indeed.
It was an amazing anime from start to finish. Now that my Sundays are all dull and boring and sad again, I NEED SEASON 2 SO BADLY. PLEASE!!!

Haikyuu really does have some of the best OSTs around. I was holding back my tears the whole time!

I love how they ended this season. Great adaptation. Some dramatic parts aren't in the manga (if I'm not mistaken). It was really really good episode.

I'm hoping for a second season.

10:00am is was soo good to me on Sundays but now I will find myself sleeping a little more.

Haikyū!! one of best sport animes I'll ever watch: loved the characters, loved all opponents and the tension getting me hyped up! You dont know how much I love this show!
In the end, I did root for Aobajousai High to win and they did YAY! Both teams work really hard and the flashbacks showed how much they both wanted it and damn, it was a good solid match but I think I just loved Tooru Oikawa's mind set and the way he thinks before he strikes and his looks, attitude and charm...yes I fell for his charm.

After seeing Karasuno High loose and cry in that last scene last week, made me a little regrettable XD I love both teams but Hinata argh! The feels really got me then.

Good ending, all they can do now is keep training because they will get their chance again and I'm soo rooting so come on second season where you at!

Fly High Karasuno and I'll give you a 5/5 no 10/10 :)

This and Nozaki-kun ending the same damn day, such emptiness.

Anyways, WINkyuu!! did it again, I know what was going to happen but the feels still there. I'm really going to miss those top-tier character interactions and the intese matches but at least the manga is still publishing.
Good thing it sold pretty well so the chances for second season are high I guess.

This was a great way to the end the series. Starting off with a sad/depressing tone of the previous match's aftermath and gradually getting back to good spirits and pumped up for the spring tournament. The scene with Kageyama and Hinata yelling and running around like crazy in the gym was emotional as heck, to my anyways. Hinata sure can jump high though, geezus. xD Kageyama used all the balls in the basket too, wow. I'm really glad the third-years are staying for the spring tournament. Haikyuu has been such an amazing anime to watch every Sunday evening for me. Definitely a 10/10 from me. Bring on season 2, please! <3

The first season comes to an end, I'm going to miss this show a hell of a lot. I forgot Kiyoko-san is a third year too, oh well,


I loved everything about this anime, the plot, the animation being handled by Production I.G, the music....basically everything.

This anime gets my seal of approval and get's a deserved 10/10.

7/10 show for me but i wont be back for season 2. i really dont like any of the characters and they cry far too often for my taste.

they show soo many feelings in every single episode and i simply cant sympathize with them. the first time i have this problem watching a sports show.

also the sport itself isnt that fun to watch for me like basketball,soccer,football and baseball .

Undeniably this is a good show but not really my thing.

GIVE ME A SEASON 2! I NEED TO SEE YACHI ANIMATED!!

Amazing anime, thank you Production IG!!

Also, I HIGHLY recommend everyone to read the manga! You should even read it right from the start! The artwork is amazing, and Furudate's way to shade/ink and his way to organize the panels are really impressive. You definitely get the chills reading the "impact" scene in the manga. The anime removed some funny parts, some flashback and some game explainations. For me, knowing what would happen did not really impact on my experience with the anime. Sure, I might not be as hyped as some of the viewers, but I still do get really engaged into it, last episode even made me cry when I didn't reading it. So, go ahead and read it! :D

Holy crap, I cried like a baby when this ended. Why do I like this so much? I hate sports in real life. I can't deal with this and then HxH on Tuesday. I'll be a broken man this week. This is the first anime where I actually cried when it was over. 9/10.

Right in the kokoro.

Dunno if it was because of their struggle, or because it was the end of the season, but I had to fight back actual tears.

Hits my feels so hard.

I need a season 2 one day or i'll feel incomplete. Not enough chapters right now though... Only at chapter 126. :/

Though the last sentance "viewfrom the top" really makes it look like its a one season anime... it really looks like it guys.... :(

It was depressing to watch the volleyball club being depressing :/
Hanged up their faults and what they could had done better to win.
The third years being told to do something they won't regret in the future!

Hinata and Kageyama releasing their anxiety as they run in the gym.
The second years, and even the third years all gathering in the gym.
Felt really relieved to see them all back at practise, more eager than ever T.T

The spring tournament in season 2, I want it! Having looked forward to this for that many weeks in Sunday mornings :/ Having amazing sports anime like this, the sports genre sure has been really strong and bringing a lot of people in!
