Lol, Himekawa...at least he's hanging in there right now.

Hinata seems to be fascinated by ceiling serves. He's like a kid at the candy store.

Suga impersonating tsukki! haha! Bless him

The ceiling serve looks really cool! I didn't know that its actually a legit serve! and looks like even daichi had some trouble receiving that! but I still think jump floaters are more troublesome.

Hinata's so impressed with that serve I can imagine him doing that kind of serve in the future!

1st set to Karasuno.

I like it how the author shows the broad side of serving.

Seeing that Hinata is amazed with the ceiling serve. He'll definitely try something like that too.

Woot, Karasuno takes the first!

And another technique Hinata can absorb for his ever growing repertoire. That serve really is a neat idea given the time of building they're playing in. Something like that prob wouldn't have worked for the Miyagi prefectures.

Am I the only one who would not like it if Hinata tries to learn that serve? As already mentioned, it will probably work for a few times only. If Hinata wants to be the ace in his third year, he has to learn a more reliable serve IMO, something not as powerful as Kageyama's serve is fine though. Just so he can put the opponent in disarray, by aiming in between the players for example. So a little accuracy when serving would be great to see from him.
As for Hinata's reaction to the ceiling serve, I really hope he will just try to pick it up next chapter and that's it. He has been impressed by a lot of moves so far which he didn't use later so I don't think he necessarily has to try the ceiling serve out himself.

Something completely different since the first match is progressing so fast: We haven't seen somthing like this for nationals yet and nobody from Karasuno has mentioned anything about their further opponents so far. This is just a guess, but I think we'll get an amazing match as the next one. Maybe against Kourai or Miya? I can also see the "Battle of the Trash Heap" take place pretty soon ~ (I mean, there's just 5 more games left for Karasuno and we have so many awesome opponents they could face *-*)

i did not follow the manga after the spring high starts. so i wonder dose it indicate in the manga that they have to play 6 match till final?
So we have fukuraduni , nekoma, ace1 , ace 2, also the team for the chibiboku,the team for that strange setter who made kageyama angry during the national training camp ( 6 opponents after this match :D ) and maybe other opponents? this is far from 5 opponent ,
maybe karasuno will fight against ace 1 next year??
i think ace 2 is in third year, so we have to see him this year,
and what about the other ace in national ? it was said there are 5 top ace in national
we know who is ace no1 and not3 , ace 2 have not yet shown but we know who he is, we know bokutu san is ace no 4 or no 5. So who is the other one? maybe that chibi bokuto?

According to this each team has to play a maximum(!) of 6 games. Look at paragraph Early January for reference. ;-)

I agree, Karasuno has to face Kiryuu (the 2nd ace) this year. As for all the others - I'm not sure if the Haikyuu fans would be satisfied if Karasuno would not face all of these crazy badass guys, so I'll assume they will face them at some point. The only way we get to see matches against all of them is by either facing some of them next year (depending on whether Karasuno will win this year or not?) or if some of them are on the same team. We don't know which team Kiryuu, Miya and Kourai are on. Some of them could be on the same team which would basically mean less opponents to face till the end of Nationals.
The top 5 ace we don't know yet could really be Kourai. He could also be on the team that beat Shiratorizawa before. If not, then there's another team with a short ace that seems to be a threat and could be an opponent for Karasuno sooner or later. I would love to see Karasuno facing off against the team that beat Shiratorizawa and Karasuno winning. And then see the Shiratorizawa guys watching Nationals and looking kind of happy Karasuno made it? Owwwww, please let that happen!! <3

there is on thing if karasune want to face all of them , it means that karasuno has to win all their match , and it is sth to some extend boring and i dont like it karasune become a championship or (second place can be better?) this year, BUT on the other hand, if karasuno lose one of their match ( i think they are going to win against nekoma and fukuraduni , since there is no other time to get revenge from 3 years), it means we have to see all this matchs again till national matches. in that case , i will die ;)

Oof. That looks like a scary serve... But they've got the first set already. I hope they can deal with this somehow as well.
