This season was alright, I enjoyed every episode enough. Looking forward to them actually playing some volleyball next season though!

6/10


Totally agree. This has been the weakest season of them all. It feels like a incomplete season, and they already announced the next one. At least we know the next season will be more focused on real competition and the things they learned this season will pay off in the end. I'm sure of that.

This was a bit disappointing. We got like 3 good episodes and 10 boring episodes... and just when we are getting to the good part, the season ends. At least I'm sure next season will be a blast but damn, I can't wait!

The calm before the storm has ended, and now, the real fun begins! Oh boy, i can't wait for these intense games!

Nothing much to say, this season was just a great apetizer for what is about to come next, so, bring it on!

9/10, waiting patiently for the 2nd cour!

As a manga reader, I can't tell you how fucking EXCITED I was for Inarizaki's introduction. AND BOY DID THEY DELIVER

The anime managed to PERFECTLY capture the sense of unease and dread that Inarizaki gives off. Karasuno has never gone against a team this strong before, and they really made sure that we realised it. I had waited so long for THAT serve from Atsumu, they really managed to establish him as one of the main forces against Karasuno. The way he just silenced the band... I got chills.

Lmao I liked how they slightly built up to the twin reveal. I'm also REALLY excited to see Osamu in action.

AHHHH WHEN WILL JULY ARRIVE

Ryu... I love you man but if you reject Kanoka because of your delusional crush with Shimizu, I'm gonna beat you to death. Well, at least it seems she won't give up so easily.

Overall, not as fulfilling as the previous seasons since we still need to see the payout for both Hinata and Kageyama's character development during a serious match. The problem of having a season of 24/25 episodes split in two cours but well.
Other than that, I truly enjoyed seeing Hinata grow as a "wiser" volleyball player so I can't wait to see him finally showing some of the things he learned against the powerful Inarizaki.

8/10 - See you all in Summer, guys!

Wow, what a place to split the cour. Even as a manga reader, this wait is going to bother me a ton, lol. Guessing it probably couldn't have been helped, but I feel the split cour really hurts due to how much this first cour focused on development and we won't get the action to provide a good balance to it until after a wait.

But oh well, what's done is done. Next cour is going to absolutely slap!

First let me tell you something don't search Kanoka and Ryuu images, for your own sake, I warn you.


I consider that Karasuno will face Nekoma so with that on the basis that Karasuno will win but I hope it is still epic.
Not as good as previous seasons but the adrenaline rush of Hinata's backpack and Ryuu's heart made it worth it.

Why did I have to spoil me... aaah.
I like to post in manga forum when I feel it is worth it, so people will think. "Shit, is her again" or something.

People asked me where I read certain thing but the rules say no telling where did you read so maybe I am too boring for not saying? Or salty because you didn't check my profile that says don't ask because I hate people to ghost me after that. I love learning languages so maybe I did not read the manga in English.

I was so hype to finally see one of my favourite matches of all the serie, but well... At least I could watch some minutes of the beginning.

Love to see Atsumu's expression when he's serving.

Little sunshine Hinata catching the attention of all Inarizaki, as usual <3

Totally loved Inarizaki's and the Miya brothers' introduction, though I was honestly shocked by the fact that Atsumu had a twin. But that booing from the crowd pissed me off. Hinata jumping and then forgetting to hit the ball was hilarious.

A great season though not as good as the previous; but it hypes up the next one perfectly. That was such a cliffhanger ending, can't wait for the next season!

What a great season (or atleast first cour) once again!! I love seeing my fav character Tanaka getting more spotlight.

Also, i'm genuinely stoked for the next cour. From the poster itself i'm assuming the whole cour will be their match vs Inarizaki, which makes me think, "if they beat inarizaki and managed to face itachiyama which is the number one team in the same tournament, would it also take one cour?".

All in all, i really enjoyed this. Might have to rewatch it soon.

10/10!!

Woooo Last eps of this season, man...I got goosebumps when Karasuno will play against Inarizaki and it's just their second game...All of Inarizaki's players are beast and badass I think haha, and they have the twins, Miya Atsumu and Miya Osamu, Atsumu probably the best young setter in Japan now, and when it says that he can do jump serve and float serve, I just can't say anything hahaha. Another team that is Aoba Johsai's typical but maybe stronger. I can't wait for another season mannnnn, the hype is real...but don't worry, Karasuno is a black horse and they've beat Ushiwaka's Shiratorizawa so they must be full of confidence...I hope haha.

That last scene holy fucking shittt!! I dont read the manga but I've been waiting for that exact moment oh my God..

A lot of people seems to be quite disappointed at this season but I personally really enjoyed this as much as I've enjoyed the previous season. People are probably disappointed that they didn't get that much action after waiting 4 years, but I've been enjoying the development, comedy, and the few actions we've been getting in every episode of this season so I am definitely satisfied with this season.

July please come faster holy shit I can't wait for the next season! Karasuno vs Inarizaki is gonna be so littt!!

this ep was so well done!!!!!!!! This quality better be brought over or better yet, IMPROVE because we all know damn too well that production ig can do so much better lmao (ahem points to run with the wind) also TF am I supposed to do now in the next three months before the next cour. There's nothing to look forward to for a while :((

*edit* literally how sad is it that inarizaki got introduced and cut off like this im tired of living off breadcrumbs lol i have needs, production ig. oh and love that atsumu is a mega asshole. mad props to mamoru for being a legend and actually going to classes to learn and get used to the kansai-ben/dialect. RESPECT to the one and only man alive.

And of course the ending leaves you wanting to see more... The next season is going to be exciting, i can feel it!
Props to Kageyama and Hinata for not being afraid to try new things even during the actual game, we saw previously that they can work it out so well, so I'm looking forward to see what they bring us this time.
Also... that crowd reminded me of the volley games in my town, they can be a big pain in the a*s.

That was great, I loved it!

I enjoyed this season a lot, I liked seeing non-match episodes and meeting new characters. I liked training episodes and SOL episode (not really slice of life but non-volleyball stuff like New Years).

I am okay with the art style change, I don't mind it. The animation was just as good as before.

I just want to rewatch everything from the beginning now. I love this series so much!

9/10

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.
As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are.

Oh Tanaka... =w=;

Dang! That sure gave me chills! Atsumu made some terrifying stare to his fangirls. Wow! And he controlls his team's club fans :O That's some power he got there.

OMG Hinata! How can you forget to hit the ball with all that excitement?? That was hard to watch!

No wonder he didn't feel amused by Hinata's attempt to attack. The disappointment in Miya brothers faces is gold! Just wait to see the true potential of Hinata and you'll change your minds... in the second cour...

Yes, Atsumu has some similarities to Oikawa. But you'll see that he's a great character of his own. He is the number 1 high school Setter, so of course he is going to have a rivalry with Kageyama. These are the kinds of players he will have to contest with now. He's just that good. What you're critizing here are basic concepts of the series. I don't really get your point. A sports series needs rivalries. And of course players are going to have rivalries with players similar to them.

Same for Hoshiumi. He is a completely different player and person than Ushiwaka. And Hinata didn't pick a fight with him btw. He admires him greatly because he showed him how great of a player someone as short him can become. But when two players this short meet, there's going to be some kind of competitive spirit. These two rivalries are different than the ones between Kageyama and Oikawa and between Hinata and Ushiwaka and you'll see that soon enough.

Gdi they definitely teased us with the build up episode and it pisses me off knowing I'll have to wait 3 more months for it continue.

BRO they started the match only for us to wait until summer -_- A great way to get us all excited tho. Atsumu is popular like Oikawa, except he's the polar opposite as he doesn't placate his fans LOL

Also big F for Kanoka for getting rejected it seems like Ryu really helped boosting her self-confidence so it's no surprise that she still likes him

The wait is gonna be a pain... I wonder if the second cour will cover the entire Nationals arc or just the match with Inarizaki? In any case, the hype is real
