| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- More practice matches... However, Shiratorizawa is a high level school so I guess having their members featured makes the matches feel more important. Throughout this episode, it looks like the coaches made a point for the players to build futures for themselves. There's so much potential with each of them. Lol, Hinata and Tobio competiting with each other in a race was amusing. |
 |
| More practice, w. the school's team. Main guy asking question to captain. Youth team practice having nice teamwork. Mamo's character doesn't seem evil now (he also gave suggestions). It's time for away members to return and back to enemies. Saying farewell. Asking about setter guy because they knew the previous him. The main two are early. They practice and talk about the time they missed. Practice match so soon. |

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| No Kiyoko-chan in the episode, about to drop the anime tbh.. we need Kiyoko. nay, we demand kiyoko!!! |
| Hinata and Kageyama racing against each other tho. That was funny. And the two training camps come to an end. And there will be a practice match. I'm looking forward to seeing Karasuno play and how much Kageyama, Hinata and the rest improved. |
 |
| They added some great anime original scenes to hype up the new characters. |
| I know I'm stating the obvious but damn those guys at the Japan youth camp was so good. That Miya guy reminded me of Oikawa, and shit that guy who looks like a bird is a good setter too wtf?? Am so hyped for next week's episode, should be a great opportunity for Hinata to up his game since they're facing Dateko after all. |
 |
| Character development arc is almost over! It's good to see the boys having a match against Dateko. I wonder how much everyone improved. I am curious about the new Dateko too. I still couldn't get used to that white kid's character design. His bird eyes are so creepy... |
| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| Training camps are over and we are finally going to get a match. Really excited. |
| Training camp is finally over, it has been pretty enjoyable but I'm excited for official matches. |

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| ~7/10 show ~9/10 MAL rating Yep, that's Haikyu alright. |
| *Mourning the disappointment of The Promised Neverland season 2.* |
| well nice...back to the karasuno as a whole from next episode |
 |
| Yaaay! The boys are back together ❤ I just love what Kageyama said to Hinata at the end; their friendship is so great! I'm looking forward to Karasuno VS Dateko round 2! |
 |
| well it is a shame Hinata never got to play a game in the end, but at least now we're back with the good ol'boys. Excited to see how much he's grown from all that watching lol |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| Great episode as always. The training montages are always a pleasure to watch. :) The last scene where Hinata and Kageyama met up at the gate and instantly started racing each other was funny and I loved the part at the end where Kageyama told Hinata he could fly even either. :) Finally, a match next episode. Very excited. |
 |
| Finally should see Hinata play next week, anime was feeling so slow with him being a ball boy. |

| Well, this was a pretty underwhelming finale to this arc. |

| Being a ball boy for the entire duration of the training camp sounds like it must've sucked, and yet I can't help feeling that Hinata learned from and grew quite a bit even just from observing things. I mean, taking a step back and being able to look at the bigger picture from the outside is just what one needs sometimes, and he had the chance to literally do that, and he didn't waste the opportunity either. So all in all, I think he got lucky that he was allowed to hang around, even if he couldn't play. Glad to see they're both just as dumb as ever when he's with Kageyama though, I mean let's just race to the door without a word, after five days of not being here together, even though we don't even have keys. xD And Kags is still a little shit, but he also still cares about Hinata. "You can fly even higher" - that's just almost gay. xD On another note: people seem to complain a lot about animation... I honestly don't know what to say about that. The art quality though? The ground itself, the shadows on the ground, the shadow/highlight on the faces, the details in closeups... I have no knowledge about anything art, but I'm really amazed by all of these. They look great to my eyes. |

| I don't know if I'am the only one, but Haikyuu's episodes are so short to me that sometimes I found myself checking the video bar to know how much is left till end! I laughed a lot when Kageyama told Hinata he's too bad compared the new Smal Gigant! |
| -¡Give yourself to me! |
| The training camp is finally over, can't wait to see how much Kageyama and Hinata has improved. Looks like they'll be playing a practice match against Dateko, really excited for this. |
 |
| I like that both their development is evident even without playing. I wonder how Hinata's new court IQ will translate into real play. That practice match will be interesting |
  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. That's what death is, don't you think? ------------------------------------ Itachi Uchiha |
| Hinata pack a damn lunch! *sigh* Anyway this arc was really nice, some skills are best learnt from a different angle literally and not being involved had lots of perks for Hinata. I really liked the Tsukki and Hinata conversation on their ways back and the little race Hinata and Kageyma had. Hinata with earmuffs 10/10 <3 |

| I am currently following Haikyuu from 3 different points of time: 1) Watching this episode 2) Rewatching from beginning 3) and reading manga (a bit left behind with the latest chapters but still aware of generally what's going to happen) The end of this 5th episode when Hinata and Kageyama met again made me feel and realise once again that this is one epic show of how two people can motivate and improve themselves and yet keep that forever-lasting rivalry. I really dig stories like these and I am happy that I am watching one of the best. The arc that just ended has been one of my favourites of all Haikyuu. Now finishing it it felt short (only 5 episodes max), but I don't know many shows where characters take up a task that seems so minor to others, but at the same time they learn so much from it, that is Hinata for being the ballboy. What were you doing this whole time? Hinata was asked this multiple times. I loved how Hinata gained confidence to reply to Kageyama with all honesty that he was just a ballboy after all. At first he was so awkward and got scolded by teachers and all whatnot, and the experience he gained made him confident. Awesome. Ah yes. One of the best build up episodes ever. |
 |
| I was hoping Hinata would be able to play at the very last minute but unfortunately..... Well, gotta hype myself up for this upcoming practice matches, hopefully they'll be taken seriously. |
 |
| Kageyama on the offensive was pretty nice change to watch. |
| haikyuu episodes are way too short. time flies. |
| The ball boy arc is finally over.... thank the fucking anime gods. |
 |
| Beautiful exchange between Hinata and Kindaichi. The music that was playing in that scene is lovely, is it one of the unreleased OST? I don't recall it being present in previous seasons. |
| Training arc is finally over and I have to say that I really enjoyed it. Though it was a bit disappointing to see how little focus Kageyama's side got. Anyways, this was another great episode. Really excited to see how much the boys have improved now that they will face Datekou. |
| I know this is an unpopular opinion but while reading the manga I really never imagined Atsumu voiced by Miyano and it doesn't really fit. Of all the kansai ben accent VA's they could have hired they just go as mainstream as possible. Meh, I guess they give him a beloved VA to make people like his character since the upcoming arc people are reaallllly gonna hate him and his team. |

| never been huge into this series but after 4 seasons I have to say I'm getting really hyped for this tournament, don't think I'm mentally prepared for what's gonna happen.. |
| the training camps ended! glad to see the boys reunited again. "you can fly even higher". i love them practice match next episode! can't wait! |
| wahhhh!!! I know I'm too late already but I ship Hinata and Kageyama lol they're so cute here! Couple who didn't saw each other for a week then share their experience xD that's so cute! No need words and they can understand each other. Kageyama even compliment Hinata. Ayieee!! ~ |

When I was reading the manga the first person I thought would voice him was Miyano mamoru. Same!! I had him in mind all the time too. His voice is just perfect for arrogant characters. And I don‘t think it‘s to make people like him because I guess Atsumu will come off even more asshole-ish with Miyano‘s way of voicing and I love that!!! I love the character development on this arc and I‘m looking forward to the Datekou match. |
