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

Oh my god! This anime is so good, it has never stoped amazing me! This is so epic, and unpredictable I really don't know who will win because they show blazed spirits on the both side of the net. Really wonderful.

"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

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 :)

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.

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?

Eh it happens. It happened with Kuroko no Basket and especially that one episode of Psycho Pass which the director apologized for the poor animation because it was incomplete. I don't expect Production IG to be perfect all the time, they have a lot of good moments which makes the few bad stand out imo.

Anyways, why is Haikyuu always so intense?!? And omg when Yamaguchi failed and Daichi told him to make it in next time, I teared up. Even though he didn't make the serve in as a pinch server, he was still able to make the rest of the team's attitude change.

MY GOODNESSSSSSSS

That was as good as some of the better sports moments from Oofuri! That's hella high praise from me! Why can't you be this good always? ;__;

It's seriously great having Aoba Jousai as an opponent. They use their head and experience well, and it forces Karasuno to grow, to develop strategies instead of relying on brute force, to try something crazy. That something crazy was Tadashi. FINALLY. I love that moment of "everyone's attention is on me", how off-balance stepping into a tense battlefield as a greenie can make one feel. I love it.

Am starting to fall back in love with this show, if I haven't already. Jump, fly, Karasunooo! ♥

HOLY SHIT, THEY'RE GOIN FOR THE 2 POINT DIFFERENCE. THAT'S SOME STRESSING SHIT. WHY IS MY CAPS LOCK?

Poor Yamaguchi :(
BUT, the match isn't over. That adding to what Daichi said, I think ya know what it mean.

That combo at the end was like a little revenge against Tooru :)

Every single second of this episode was amazing! Every single episode of Haikyuu is amazing! If I tried to list everything I liked about this episode I'd be writing for hours... so I'll just say that I loved every single scene. Not a second was wasted. And there'snot many anime that make me feel this way. Haikyuu is something special.

By FAR. The best and most exciting of Haikyuu!! I've seen~

This was just pure AWESOME!!!! I had the chills, I got the feels, I felt their pain, their excitement, their will to win. Words alone cannot describe the feeling of this episode. Especially the last part. The hand toss. I literally had tears in my eyes.

5/5. Beautiful.

I think Hinata just went into serious badass mode and it still isn't enough to beat Seijoh.

Poor Hinata is working so hard and pouring everything he has in this game that it made me drop a manly man tear T.T

Holy crap their coach can actually talk XD.

Oikawa's really good and lucky besides that with that lucky serve that just happened lol.

LOL, I knew they'd bring Yamaguchi on to use his float serve (I think it was called) and damn just look at his frightened expression XD.

Hahahahha, the reactions the guys had, especially Kageyama's were freaking hilarious and epic.

LOL, dat cheering form the sidelines though XD.

Well that didn't go as planned but don't worry Yamaguchi.

That one had toss that Kageyama managed to pull and that Hinata transformed into a point is going to get them the win in the end I just know it.

Holy sheeet fucking episode! I got thrilled during the entire match. Glad Haikyuu got all the budget it needs (being a sport series and all), the animation is definitely top notch. Wish more sport anime got this kind of treatment though.

Plenty tensions and good play
Poor Yamagushi failing as a one time pinch server, but as the others said he'll be getting more chances and grow stronger from that moment

The thing I love about this anime is that the suspense of waiting each week for a new episode was too much for me so I went and read the manga. Even though I'm on the latest chapter of that manga, I'm still so excited for each week's episode of Haikyuu! everytime<3

7/10 for this episode.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

Also, I appreciated how every character is well constructed and deploys perfectly his feelings to the spectator.
