| What the!? Did they just suddenly decide to reduce the budget drastically Or am I the only one who have just come realize that their faces and the animation is messed up all this time? Aside from the animation It is a good episode as usual |

Yeah I'm guessing the use of high quality animation in the 1st cour affected the 2nd cour heavily, animation was bound to have gone down, even with the phenomenal sales. |
| And they're TIED now!! Those few last episodes are sooo intense! It's been a while I was this hooked up on an anime. Poor Yamaguchi but I bet he'll do great in the next match! well I'm too excited now dor the next episode, too bad only 2 left |
 |
| Great shit, indeed. |
| Even if the animation isin't as good (they probably used most the budget at first), the episode was still **** awesome :D I hope there will be a season 2 and they probably get a bigger budget (how is it doing in japan anyone ?) |
| Epic!! TOO FRIGGIN EPIC!! >.<!! The tension at the end was just amazing!! Dat one hand toss by Tobio followed by Hinata's spike gave me chills!!! The senpai's reactions to Yamaguchi going into the court were lol XD They're just as nervous while Tobio is just relieved that Hinata won't hit him XD And the faces Yamaguchi saw on them and Aoba were lol XD Loved the serious faces Karasuno had after Yamaguchi went out. So reliable :D Hinata's save when he got his face hit the ground gotta hurt XD But really! GOOSEBUMPS!! Loving the poll on this thread :3 |

| Great episode. So damn intense. |
 |
| Aww somehow I feel bad for Aoba Johsai... though I'd feel bad if Karasuno lost too... |
| Good episode. That was a nice play at the end. This is so close. I really don't know who is going to win this one. |
 |
| Oh man that cliffhanger! 24-24 is the score, the final serve has everyone's hard work and determination behind it :o |

Yeah I'm guessing the use of high quality animation in the 1st cour affected the 2nd cour heavily, animation was bound to have gone down, even with the phenomenal sales. Glad to know that I wasn't the only one who noticed it. It's okay though, the plot is getting so intense now. Its 24-24 and I cant wait for the 24th episode! One hell of a cliffhanger, super intense, the 3rd set was incredibly well done and I hope we have a real good ending to this match. |
| It was simply amazing. It was climax at every second that i actually forgotten to breathe, which is extemely rare for me when i watch anime. The best eps by far in my opinion. |
| My god, it ends with the points on 24-24. Damn I felt the intensity from the set match and everyone is going full out. I felt bad for Yamaguchi, when he served failed, though he did a good job with that jump float though. |
Toaki90 said: What the!? Did they just suddenly decide to reduce the budget drastically Or am I the only one who have just come realize that their faces and the animation is messed up all this time? Yep, I noticed that too. Well, but it's Haikyuu so it was great even with the less better animation than usual. |
| gosh, that was nerve wrecking, I must have lost a few year of my lives watching that ep. |
| How do I signature? |
| The episode was awesome as usual! Unfortunately I have somethings bad to talk about this episode: - The animation was inconsistent, in some places it was beautiful and amazing but in others it was off. It seems like the budget and the time they spent in making other places amazing is coming to bite their asses now, and the ones suffer aren't only the production but the viewers as well :'( - The episode condensed to much content. This episode used 5 chapters full of content. While overall the episode is still amazing, but they are removing a lot of excellent stuff and making scenes awkward like the Oikawa fangirls and the neighborhood volleyball club members and their explanation of the game. - The impact of certain scenes while still great in this episode, in the manga are way more impactful.Maybe because of the animation and the rushing of this episode? I don't really know, but is a shame because I wanted to see those scenes with full impact. |

| Yamaguchi might have hit the net, but he did successfully make it float! That's got to count for something right? I actually liked the exposition between the neighborhood guys and the fangirls. I especially liked how as the match has progressed the girls have seemed to get wrapped up more and more with the game instead of just screaming for Oikawa. It felt like Karasuno was stealing their attention from him slowly but surely. I kind of wish that the Karasuno Girls team got to watch this match too though. They could count it toward their club activities right? Right? |
| maan, the best episode so far.. |
| Their Libero being a setter too! Tanaka calling that feint annoying xD Performing at 100% yet the gap is still there! Just got to perform at 120% to be able to reach Aoba Johsai! The broad cross only working once then getting countered :( All those rally back and forth! Tadashi getting sent out as the pinch shooter xD That face! Though the serve failed, it really switched the momentum! I really liked the "Tadashi, nice serve" cheer ^^ Both teams not wanting to loose and at the end to finally grab the shirt! Time go pull it back :) I couldn't stop smiling out of excitement :D |

| THIS FUCKING EPISODE I can't believe the finale is next week, i was gritting my teeth like shit towards the end of that, fuck me. Almost screaming geez, getting more hyped than most people over football. I'm shaking jesus, this last episode is going to be the shit, so excited |
| Does anyone else need a doctor to confirm that someone without a head is dead? |
| Phoenix Wright Suspense theme vibe from the track near the middle of the episode. Fitting. Overall the OST complements the show very well. The tension near the end was great. |
| Sieg Zeon! |

| Holy shit that was a frickin amazing episode. I could feel my heart beating so loudly near the end. I even started tearing up a little ;v; GOOO KARASUNOOOOOO! |
 |
| This episode had me so tense, this was so awesome. |
 |
| Wow... The intensity is blazing everywhere. I feel bad for Yamaguchi serving in the most critical moment. The pressure man...so intense. But I like how Yamaguchi's teammates are being so understanding towards his situation. So nice ^o^ Lol at Hinata saving the ball with his face. That's gonna hurt. XD |
| I forgot to breathe a few times cause it was so intense. :> |
| so much YES! |
 "In the past few months since we met, I've shared many memories with Nagato. Though I've also shared memories with Haruhi, Asahina-san and Koizumi, I found that I've experienced more events with Nagato in particular. In fact, every situation seems to involve her. I might as well mention this, she's probably the only person to cause the bell within me to shake the most vigorously..." ~ Kyon, TMOSH |
| Dat one hand toss |

-MgZ_ said: I've read the manga. I know what's going to happen but man, I still can't stop grinning. Too freaking epic. Yassss... Exactly. I've read it, I even know whats about to happen next, yet I'm still getting such pure emotion from this. Such an intense rally! I'm so hyped!!! This is too damn great of an anime to pass up. I feel sorry for those who dropped this. tsk tsk. edit: so strolling through the reviews for Haikyu and everyone either gave this anime a 9 or a 10. That is super rare :) |
 |
| Nice.. Too many action, feel like im watching it for an hour.. as always great ep.. :) |
 |
| I need a water hose now, my pc is burning because of the intensity of this episode, holy fucking shit... Best episode. |
 |
| A bad Haikyuu!! episode just doesn't exist. Great episode again. |
| Is this ever gonna end? I loved the whole catching up to Oikawa thing. I want them to win ok... I love Karasuno but ughh |
| Wow, this was the first episode that I actually felt the intensity and the urge for them to win. I know the pressure of being down match point very well, and it's not an easy point to win especially if they were down 2 match points. |
| lol |
| On the edge of my seat. Heart racing so fast OMFG. Yamaguchi T__T Next time. I am dying |
| YEAH!! They got a deuce. Too bad Yamaguchi didnt get it in, but he did get to hear "next time". Those words mean so much. |
