| Hot damn Kageyama, shouting at Tanaka and Nishinoya is one thing, but to Asahi is another thing. Hinata giving Kageyama the crown was super hype! He finally become the one true king! That aside, Karasuno is finally evolving. All it takes is a bit of fighting and communication. Fighting in a team isn't necessarily a bad things, some things need to be said no matter how harsh it is for the good of the team. Being able to criticize also means trust. Trust that your teammate can accept your criticism and improve their play. Thing is what Kageyama said wasn't necessarily wrong. He just need to said it better. |
nanimeanswhat said: By the way, the commercial break animations this season seriously SUCK. It's always the same animation of baby crow Hinata flying. At least make baby crow animations of other members too for a change, smh. I miss previous seasons' skits. Gotta agree on this. I loved the previous skits featuring the characters doing some serves but instead, these ones feel really uninspired. |
| Honestly, at this point the only problem I have with the animation (or art style, to be more exact) is that both Hinata and Kageyama stop making rapey faces :/ Anyways, it was another nice episode. More focused on character development rather than the match against Datekou but still, quite enjoyable in the end. |
| kageyama is being toxic but they are like "oh ok that's our kageyama" like wtf? seems like about everyone but me enjoyed the crowning scene.... and.. the animation..... good for them i guess, more enjoyment in life.. *sighs* |
| see you, space cowperson . . . |
| Good episode. I love how Kageyama manages to bring out good in his teammates. Just proves that he is a great setter. |
| I recall it not being that cringy in the manga. |
| I didn't expect Kageyama's development to suddenly go backwards but whatever. It's still fun seeing them argue. |
 |
| Man, this season is just bad... its just training after training... i miss hinata quick spike or whatever that is.... i dont know what happen anymore in the match... |
 |
| Return of the king. and thanks goes to Hinata for making it possible >~< |

| I love this episode ❤️ Hinata tame Kageyama ayiiieee~ Tsukishima triggered Kageyama again ahahaha XD |

| Man the negativity in this thread is just too much. People still complaining about the animation need to get their eyes checked. Or watch more sports anime. People complaining about this season just being training must have forgotten pretty much everything from previous seasons. |

I'm not mindlessly defending anything lol, people's takes on this season are just extremely exagerrated. Just look at every other sports anime or anime in general and realise how good this looks, even if the other seasons looked even better. |
| Kageyama best boy, I love his character development. Even when he yelled at the team, his regretful expression afterwards was impactful. It is important to communicate properly with others, because if we don't, we end up snapping without them knowing what they did wrong. I think it's going to be better from now on, Kageyama will not focus as much on tailoring his sets to every player's strengths and weaknesses but also try to challenge them to be better. I really loved the Karasuno interactions in this episode. Also really enjoying that the match with Dateko wasn't as short as I expected it to be, given that we haven't seen Dateko play much lately. I mean even in their match with Seijoh we barely saw a few points. |
| oh FUCK!!!!!!! THAT OST!!!!!!!!!! SO GOOD! |
| the king is return |
| this season seems quite similar to the start of season two, except... worse, and we won't get to see actual games. |
    - ✼ - 👏 hyped for 2022 lockdown 👏 👏 all good things come in threes 👏 - - ✽ - - |
| The king is back but it will be a good thing in the end. |
 |
| Lol Date Tech's seniors came to cheer their team on, on a practice match hehe that's adorable. |
 |
| Kageyama was really annoying again, but I hope it will only make him better. The actual problem I have here is that sometimes I feel like Karasuno players just suddenly forget all the new attacks and tactics they learned in previous matches (even ones they had to use to get through hard blocks like Date's and so on), and just go for regular spikes. I wonder how they even have enough scores still, cause they barely show any :/ |
 |
| That triple block combo is just too OP, damn |
 |
| Kageyama returned as King and evolved and I liked it how the team pretty much accepted it, and Hinata comes and saves the day every fricking time. And the team pretty much evolved too on skills and mentally too, and I really like how Kageyama pushes them all to remove those flaws and work much on a better team with what he'd done in his conversations with Tsukishima, Tanaka and Nishinoya. And Date-tech sure is getting stronger and scarier as time passes even though they are transferring to a new generation of players. Surely, they will be a stronger opponent on next official tournaments. And what funny and great episode, Hinata scolding and picking a fight with Kageyama as Tsukishima does, and its cute how Yamaguchi protects Tsukishima vice-versa. |
 |
| ................................................................................i almost couldn't recognise ennoshita lol.... great episode of character development this is the growth that kageyama being at the training camp was a catalyst for. karasuno is truly his team where he belongs he has his own flaws too & it was so nice seeing them embracing & helping him grow ♥♥ tsukki & kageyama interactions never fail to crack me up lol THE NEW KING OF THE COURT IS BORN, that was so good, making its way to my personal favourite moments of haikyuu, LOVED THAT  |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| Loved seeing Kageyama sort out his feelings in this episode. :') |
 |
| I actually feel like I wouldn't get the point of this episode if it weren't for the comment about Kageyama enabling the spikers bad habits (e.g. Tsukishima hitting the ball low/not jumping high enough). IMO the episode felt all over the place, wasn't getting the point clearly across and Kageyama's character felt on the verge of unbelievable I'm afraid. It was very disconnected and too sudden. I feel like a lot of the characters personalities in this show are shifting after the last season and it's a bit off putting for me.. Other characters I feel it with especially are Sugawara and Asahi. I'm really enjoying Hinata's development and I love watching their journey of getting better in volleyball but idk I feel like some of the charm of the previous seasons are lacking.. |

| Kageyama's getting snappy, it's good coming from him! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| All commercial break animations are repetitive and boring. At least they could add more Karasuno players there but nop. Well it's the only negative change of this season so far. The animation is ok, I don't understand how many people complain about this. Kageyama being a bitch is funny hahaha |

| gr8 episode.....the part where Hinata crowned Kageyama was legit good...although he threw the towel back at him xd |
| Idk bro it just feels like we're back at square one despite the fact that they just took down the strongest team in the prefecture. Heck they are heading to the nationals soon but I don't feel any of that energy man. I loved the first two seasons because they were hype asf and got my adrenaline pumping. Maybe it's just me expecting too much from this series, but I'm just gonna say that this "to the top" season feels like they're just chilling at the bottom. Yeah of course they need to continue to train to get better for the nationals, but this training just doesn't feel like they're preparing for the NATIONALS if you feel me. If you're still enjoying this as much as the exceptional previous seasons, then I'm happy for you. Maybe you can share some of that enjoyment with me. |

| I think it would have been better if they tried to focus more on the fact that Kageyama was accommodating spikers' bad habits too. Some more focus on Kageyama would have been better. But anyway, it was a really good episode. That scene with Hinata "crowning" Kageyama was great. |
 |
| what is wrong with kageyama ! |
| Kaeyama gives order like he's the leader 💀 |
