| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Good episode. And welp we find out even more about their playing styles. I just hope they can keep it up because they need it for their future matches. Tanaka...ahh, you funny kid. Taking his shirt off for a small celebration caught me off guard. |

| The animation is always awesome, I'm surprised. Probably has a higher budget than KnB. |
 |
| That megane guy became serious in second half. Nevertheless, they are officially in the team now. So that megane teacher is voiced by HiroC, he brought the news about practice match. They are going against that "king" guy's ex-team. Valleyball lesson. lol @ the pressure and nervousness all over again. Wow @ the end and lol @ the three guys' faces. |

You can tell by the movement. :3 Hearing Kamiya Hiroshi caught me off guard for a second there. The advisor looks young! Seems like he's the connection to the audience and will be letting us know about volleyball stuff. Poor Tanaka. He got puked over. XD I wonder how Hinata will get over his nerves. Provocation? |
| Loved it!!! Kamiyan~. :] The team is slower coming together, and the animation and ost are as great as ever~ |
 |
| Another great episode! I'm loving the animation and OST of this anime. Really high quality anime here~ Hinata and Kageyama are now official members of the Karasuno Volleyball team. :D I didn't expect Kamiya Hiroshi to voice the club advisor either, haha! I really like the characters of the Karasuno team. Tanaka's hilarious and Sugawara is a really cool guy. It's also really funny how Hinata is soooo nervous. He ended up wearing Tanaka's pants and Tanaka made a girl freak out. xD Hinata didn't get enough sleep and even puked on Tanaka. So funny, oh my goodness. xP Can't wait to see the practice match next episode! :) 5/5 |
 |
| Tanaka is as hilarious as always. Those facial expressions and the moment when he took off his shirt lols XD LOL'ed when Hinata gets all nervous. Wears the jacket as his pants, then ends up wearing Tanaka's pants lolol. Goes on to puke on Tanaka as well hahaha. Wonder how they'll fare in the practice match. |
 |
| I seriously didn't expect Kamiyan will have a character here. Hahaha. It is kinda getting kind of annoying that Hinata always acts like he is an underdog. Can't wait for him to straighten up more properly. Looking forward to the match. |

Haha love how the adaptation is going, with all the little extra scenes they are adding in that wasn't in the manga. Definitely this has some crisp and great animation, even for a normal production IG sports anime. KnB had some bad animation for some parts, hopefully it hold out for the whole series :D. |
| Awesome episode. Glad to see the two of them at least somewhat in sync now. Really going to be looking forward to their practice match. |

| Tanaka getting vomited on xD He also had to walk with no pants! The team is finally made! Hinata going middle blocker... wouldn't he be tired from all those high jumping? Hinata unable to sleep and just basically exploded from the thoughts were great. The practise match will be awesome! |
 |
| this episode was too funny! especially hinata nervosity. and that only because he might be replaced. |
 |
| Good ep :D Loved how Kageyama and Hinata started getting used to the quick and won both games ^^ Hinata is a really great decoy indeed hehe. Tanaka acting all high and mighty against Tsukishima was lol and Hinata talking from behind him too hahaha Tanaka being called baldy was lol The reactions to wearing the Karasuno uniform was funny hehe. And really seems like the thing about Hinata and Kageyama with the principle's wig has become known throughout the whole school hehe It's great to see Tobio being polite to his senpai :D He does remind me of Kagami with the way he forces himself to talk politely hahaha The reactions to Hinata eating the buns before them were so hilarious XD DEM FACES HAHAHAHA lol Hinata's nervousness was lol, wearing the jacket from his legs and wearing Tanaka's pants XD Poor Tanaka being called a perv for going out in his boxer XD And again getting vomited on XD Their reactions to how bad his case was were lololol XD Can't wait for the match against Aoba :D |
 |
| I'm slowly falling in love with this anime. It's so funny and well made. moreover it feels kind of refreshing after some of the latest sport anime aired. not sure why I have this impression |
 No Blood! No Bone! No Ash! |
| @ 21:46 Loli spotted!! This anime should've been a story about her supporting her brother who loves volley ;( |
| "Burn the heretics" |
| Looking pretty sharp with those sports jackets. |
| funniest thing was when the girl called tanaka a pervert xD |
| Damn this is probably my top favorite anime this season, I loved every aspect of it in here. The match is coming up, looking spiffy on those uniforms :D. Hinata's anxiety is getting into him, but I'm sure he will pull it off in the next episode. Though it was pretty funny when his clothes were switched by someone else XD. Can't wait for the match to start up next week :D. |
| baby being nervous, pretty much the cutest thing on earth wwww can't wait to see how well NamiDai voices Oikawa (well, then again, it's NamiDai!) (but I didn't see him in the preview :( probably next two episodes...*sighs*) |
 |
| Hinata is so nervous. That ending scene made me laugh so hard lol. |
 |

 |
| omg hinata, there is too much to say about him, too cute, the whole team is adorable~ ultimate decoy~ lol itll take awhile for me to get used to the faculty advisor's voice, i never expected it to be kamiya hiroshi, but somehow it kinda works, that novice kind of feel fits well grand king soon? :D |
( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ |
| I love this humor! <3 Can't stop laugh at some moments xD HiroC as Teacher! xD I thought he is a student! With that voice, this size! xD So funny! I love this series! <3 |
| Very nice episode! *thumbs up* My roommate who is not into anime was passing by and stopped to check what i watch, and then ended up watching the whole episode with me and enjoyed it greatly...she even said she really liked it. I doubt she is gonna watch the rest, but still good enough appreciation when it comes to her:') edit: she informed she plans to watch the next episode with me again, because fruit (Kageyama) and tortoise (Tsukishima) left deep impression on her. Don't ask me why they remind her of fruit and tortoise... |

| They were all so cute~ Favorite part was when they put on their jerseys :-)))) I love all the characters so much ahhh |
 |
| Haha, hilarious episode XD Hinata/Kageyama won. Takeda's seiyuu is Kamiyaaaan~ Hinata with the manju was too cute XD lol @ the reaction of the others. Great that the explanations of the positions were included. Hinata was so nervous. He used the jacket as pants. His blushing~ And then he even wore Tanaka's pants instead XD Some scenes were added. lol @ Hinata's sister XD Best part was when Hinata threw up. Poor Tanaka LOL Practice match against Aobajousai starts next ep. Can't wait. |
| Hyuga Junpei: “Yeah… I’m confident… Because my teammates will help me out! I can shoot confidently.. because it will be okay even if I miss!” Kagami Taiga: “I don’t know about being the bad guy or whatever. It’s only in stories where titles like that decide the loser. This is our show. We’re the ones who are writing the script.” |
| am i the only one who thinks the pacing is too slow?? after-matches are dragged out so much.. apart from the acceptance battle of hinata and kageyama, almost not a single shit has happened through the entire episode.. it's just that hinata's nervous like a crybaby all the time... besides, 5 episodes has been aired so far and we still dont know anything about the antagonists of the anime.. no face no voice nothing.. i think i'm a bit disappointed.. 2/5 .. |

bulk_density said: it's just that hinata's complaining like a crybaby all the time... Lol..? I see you prefer the emotionless ones |
|
| Previous episodes didn't have as much comedy as this one did, so i wasn't able to say much about humor of this series, but damn this is so hilarious XD i like how they are speaking about Tsukky like he's some kind of natural idiot and he's not even responding to it, lmao.Also, ''TANAKA HENTAI! BAKA!'' - gold. It doesn't look good for Hinata...and in preview Daichi said he's starting to feel bad as well XD. Thank You Production I.G - again. |

maikael said: LOL this episode probably inspired even more yaoi with the way Hinata was bent over. Can't wait for that XD I also feel the pacing is sorta slow but I know that people are really gonna treasure this anime in the end. Team Karasuno's rebirth was amazing in the manga, and it'll be epic in the anime. If you read the manga you know that each episode adapted 2 chapters of the manga, except the last episode(4) that adapted 3 chapters. Next episode will adapt 3 chapters as well! So No, the pacing in terms of adaption is just fine, just like Kuroko no Basket, is the normal of Production I.G., go watch One Piece and watch an episode adapting 0,5 to 1 chapter of the manga and you understand what slow pacing means. Now, if you're talking of the story, I can see what you're talking, but I still disagree. Kuroko no Basket with his fast pacing in the 5th episode was just ending the training game against Kaijou(Kise team) and note that in Kuroko the first episode was the freshmen against the veterans, and by the third episode they were already playing against Kaijou. Slam Dunk that is considered one of the best sport anime and manga ever, started the freshmen vs veterans game in the 7th episode and the training game in the 13th episode. While Slam Dunk wasn't made by Production I.G. but Toei, it was made with a 2 chapter per episode rate, just like how I.G. does now. In the end people have to understand that Sport anime doesn't mean action is the only thing that matters. |
| I demand that they show more of Hinata's little sister, because that was the cutest thing I've ever seen Poor Hinata being so nervous, I hope he'll do well |
Lesserkey said: The animation is always awesome, I'm surprised. Probably has a higher budget than KnB. I'm not sure about that, Kuroko required a tonne of flashy animation, the standard animation was actually pretty high quality itself. This is super clean and the quality is solid, but it feels like they can't do as much with it like they can with Kuroko. Already I get the feeling that they're reusing shots. |

| Dat barf |
| Great! Kageyama and Hinata won their game and now they're part of the team, and Tsukishima along with his friend also join the team, They're rocking the team jerseys like total bosses. Sensei?! C'mon... he looks like he's the same age as his students... well... not like I can talk since I looks 5-8 years younger lol. Hinata's really feeling the pressure and he did all kinds of embarrassing stuff, like puking on Tanaka XD. |
| "Let justice be done, though the heavens fall." |
| Haikyuu can mix serious and funny moments surprisingly well. Tanaka's pants can testify to that. Officially my favorite sports anime! |
 |
| All the goof never ceases to amuse me<3 Looking forward to the game :D |
| Nice to hear Kamiya Hiroshi as the teacher!! But basing on the OP, I really thought at first that the teacher was the Little Giant. And another character spotted in the OP which is the store owner. I like the color of his hair. Waiting for the other characters to be introduced. And lastly, more Hinata's little sister appearance PLEASE!!! She is so cute!! |
| laughed a lot with this episode Hinata losing confidence and making shit was hilarious I want to see how it will come out during the game _______ ri muito com esse episódio Hinata perdendo a confiança e fazendo besteiras foi hilário quero ver como ele vai se sair durante o jogo |
  |
| All of the reactions to Hinata throwing up on the bus were hilarious. Poor Tanaka. Looking forward to seeing how the practice match turns out. Hope it'll be intense. |
| Good episode, impressive animation as always. Fairly standard set up but well done |
 |
| Great animation, writing, and plot. I especially am crazy over the OST. I can't wait until the matches begin. Hinata x Kageyama 4eva. Bromance ftw. |
