I didn’t like this episode, it felt confusing and even the parts that seemed interesting gave me the feeling that they weren’t properly done, from my point of view.

Damn what a tight game. Nishinoya to the save when they almost flopped that attack. That Tanaka spike was insane.

Damn.. does Hinata ever get tired? Sometimes I feel like I'm getting tired from just watching him. Nonetheless, another fantastic episode.

Hinata back at it again with his football moves lol. Anyway, so this match will finally end in the next episode or do we have to see more flashbacks and backstories again?

All right, I finally got it!
I thought I recognized Aran's (Allen's) dribble before he serves. That's gotta be the Hanna Barbara Harlem Globetrotters I remember from my childhood in the '80s.
As a(n) (old-ass) black American who loves Japanese language and culture, I love that nothing is made of Aran's ethnicity. He's just a teammate.
But then you have the dribble, which is both Cringe and beautiful Nostalgia.
Cringestalgia.

Lmao, that final point was whack. But Daichi's scoring was soooo good. Kageyama and Azumane aces were amazing

I guess I'm in the minority to find this episode disappointing. This match just feels so dragged out, with every little thing apparentely warranting a flashback.

Bad animation and inconsistent art aside, I'm also disappointed with how little presence Hinata has had this season. A large part of the previous season was about his development in regard to volleyball and it feels like he's barely been on screen this season.

We had a few fun moments this episode though, and the characters are still good enough to keep me watching.


I agree with regards to Hinata needing more time. He's the protagonist but he may as well have been off the court during the match. Ever since that old bitter asshole turned him into the ball boy I've been waiting for him to make a grand comeback, but I'm just not seeing it happen. Is the author just against drawing him in the hideous orange outfit?
Quality Queen.

This is the Haikyuu I love, but I'm kind of disappointed they made Oikawa appear in the preview and get me hyped just to show that, I was really expecting something crazy, like him coming to watch the game and yelling at Kageyama from up there. But I guess it's still better than nothing.

As for the match itself, amazing episode, now that it's near the end. Hinata is just insane. And that spike by Tanaka!!

and the match is still moving. and while it's the end, it'd hype and epic as ever.

still though, i feel this match is dragged for too long. i have many thoughts on what went wrong here, and that karasuno struggling is really annoying, but i will save it when this match gonna end already.
