That T E N S I O N

Next week is going to be dope

On another note
"For the time being, nothing scares me more than Oikawa"
Does that mean we'll get to see Karasuno play against him in another match?
I sincerely hope so

Ushikawa is so op man, it is not even funny XD

RIP Ukai's voice actor :( It was really sad to hear his voice motivating the Karasuno boys during the games :(


I don't like Tendou, but this gif is soooo funny lol

Intense episode so far
Ushijima is freaking awesome
But the chara tha I am really waiting is Tendou, the most interesting chara in this match. Welp, we'll see his awesomeness next week

Agree, Tendou is a great character. Ushijima is awesome and powerful, but Tendou was my favorite in this match.

Waiting for more epicness from Noya ^^

The animation and music never fails to impress me with this show. Rewinded a few times to watch all that sakuga :)

Shiratorizawa seems like they didn't prepare for Karasuno nearly as much as Karasuno did for them. I guess they're already looking at nationals. They're gonna regret that decision by the end of this season though 😋

I feel like most of the shots are of the ball getting spiked and hitting the ground earning a score. Not enough animation of the volley part of volleyball and lacking shots of the field with player position. Those things are kind of vital to visualizing the game for me, not watching a ball getting spiked over and over while the spiker glare at the enemy team. -cough-

Nishinoya was so frikkin' cool in this episode. Tsukishima too but he's so cool all the time that it doesn't matter, lol.

I can't imagine someone like Ushijima or anyone with similar characteristics in real life. Then again, I can't imagine anyone who takes any sport seriously without life interfering. I was part of several sports teams back in middle, high school and even college but never encountered anyone like them. Even on the boys team most of them were just fooling around. They'd get upset and sometimes even cry when they lost but then again, nobody likes losing. This is probably why I enjoy watching sport Anime, even though some of them are overly dramatic, I love how dedicated the characters seem.

CRAZY, CRAZY, CRAZY!!!

This reminds me so much of my middle school days playing volley ball!! I am reliving the tension and determination I felt back in the 8th grade fighting for victory with my team!!! I never thought a sports anime would move me emotionally, but I was almost crying halfway through the episode! There's no feeling like that of facing an opponent that towers above you in skill, power, and agility. It's SO crazy when you go against people like that in sports and this season is doing so well of depicting that.

I was really worried about Tsuki's jammed finger. That shit hurts. I messed my thumb up playing volleyball too and even though it was years ago, it's still never really healed the same.

Way to go Nishinoya actually picking up those powerful serves and spikes!! Homeboy just goes to show in the face of peril you NEVER GIVE UP! Woo hoo!!!

Can't wait to watch the rest of this season!!

Nishinoya is cool! I'm liking Kei's moments too and how Nishinoya is helping him shape up indirectly.
Kageyama was cool too! Daichi as well.

The redhead annoys me.

The ED really destroys the hype. Otherwise, really cool episode.

yeah agreed it's gonna take me a while to like the ED.

Oh look, it's volleyball Hisoka

Tendou is easily the most interesting guy on team Shiratorizawa- the rest are forgettable or boring at best imo. But hey, they've got the rest of the season to shine, I guess.
I'm just used to the other teams having instantly likeable or charismatic characters like Kuroo, Oikawa, Kenma, Bokuto & Terushima.

The character who really shone this episode was Tsukki...we even had some internal monologue from him about his own feelings of inadequacy. This stuff with blocking Ushijima has been brewing for a while.

You can do it Tsukki!!!

So basically Ushijima's strength lies on him being lefthanded? Lol I'm calling it now, if they win this, they will encounter someone in the nationals who is ambidextrous and then they're really fucked.

Slow start but Nishinoya is going hard. First set is already done. Who's going to take the next one.
Also that dude with red hair looks like a black clover character for some reason (mainly because he kind of looks like Zora with the hair and some of his face).

First set over. Faster pace than I expected, though I guess if they go two episodes a set from here on out it would be about the same pacing as normal.
This red haired guy is scary. Seems like the next episode will center around him

Damn Ushiwaka and Shiratorizawa are just breezing through. Ushiwaka is really living up to his name as one of the best spikers in the country around his age.

So the first set goes to Shiratorizawa. Let's hope Karasuno can take the next one!

It looks like the next episode is dedicated to Tendo. He is definitely an interesting character.

once i knew this is gonna be 5 sets much, i thought this is gonna use the entire season, but they are already past the first set?

karasuno isn't at a good point. the strategy of keep attacking sound good at paper, but i don't think it's gonna be easy as that. that player (tendo) at the end blocked hinata's playing pretty easily.

Ushiwaka is too much of a beast. But I bet he doesn’t have as much stamina as Hinata. The red haired guy looks like the guy from My Hero.
