Talk about a career built around playing support roles. He's voiced nobody particularly memorable. I wonder if he'll try and voice-match Tanaka, he's almost 10 years older than Tanaka was.

Did they start the nationals already?
>>
>>150178765
Nope, new team from a place that's never even been referenced in the series before. Repping a different region from the super powerhouses that got mentioned earlier on.
>>
>>150178810
Won't happen because Itachiyama is getting hyped up and Sakusa is supposed to be better than Bokuto anyways. You just better hope Fukurodani gets matched against some fodder team first so they don't completely embarrass themselves.
>>
>>150178468
Owl is cute, though
>>
>>150178861
Should be next chapter but at the rate it's getting padding out maybe not even then. Hinata losing his shoes was just a waste of time.
>>
>>150178997
Hinata losing his shoes was a plot device to showcase Kiyoko's POV and to have Yachi sitting on the bench with Ukai and Takeda for the first time.
>>
>>150178888
Sakusa might be better than Bokuto, but he's not better than Bokuto + Akaashi. Itachiyama's going to lose if they face Fukurodani.
>>
>>150179229
We don't even know Itachiyama's setter yet. Plus their libero is supposed to be #1. Fukurodani only has Bokuto and Akaashi and we all know how risky it is to depend on Bokuto and his moodswings, especially against a skilled libero not letting him through.

They have to find a way to make Itachiyama seem more OP than Shiratorizawa and it seems like Fukurodani has to be the one to fall on the sword. If the manga decides to go to the next year then Karasuno will probably defeat cats but lose to Itachiyama too.
>>
>>150179217
Kiyoko's been Misaki'd already?
>>
Subs out.

Tsukki's back next episode!
>>
>>150179463
Having Fukurodani lose against Itachiyama seems like a smart way to make them menacing. To be honest I really doubt that Karasuno will face Fukurodani this time since there's been barely any build up for that, while Itachiyama is being hyped a lot and I see a match against them one where Kageyama would have to go into full king mode in order to unleash all his team's potential (remember that Hinata has crowned him king again). On the other hand an official match against Nekoma is the manga's goal but I can't see that one being the final one, so probably they will face the cats in the semifinals?

>>150178880
Yeah, the super powerhouses from way back and all the new characters from the training camps had me doubting myself.

Seems to be setting up for a really long and frustrating arc. I wonder what Sakusa has that will make him more threatening than Ushijima. He seems like the kind that would get triggered if you even touched him.
>>
>>150180368
The match against Itachiyama will probably be another namek. And the one against Nekoma too. I hope that this first match and the ones that will follow won't get too long, especially because I'm pretty sure Furudate will show bits of Nekoma, Fukurodani and maybe even Niiyama and that is going to fill up more chapters.
>>
>>150179463
Itachiyama's setter will probably be to their game/team what Tendo was to Shiratorizawa.

I agree he'll probably bounce between different teams matches. Karasuno's first match will probably be 3-4 chapters tops. Karasuno vs Nekoma might be long, but it will be better than Shiratorizawa since they have long standing friendly rivalry built up between them.

I'm glad they didn't choose to drag things or put some filler to get a full cour, but it still feels bad.
>>
>>150181884
Even if they waited for more manga, no way this match would have fit in anywhere with a full season without feeling unbalanced.

Makes me wonder if they can even do additional seasons with the matches lasting longer and longer. It'd have to turn into one of those shitty ongoing anime and sacrifice it's good animation.
>>
>>150182193
The answer is movies.
They are gonna release some compilation movies while waiting for more material to animate.
And if the series dies by itself by then, i guess nothing will be lost to them, fujos will latch onto another sport series with homo undertones sooner or later anyway.

I wouldn't say he's my favorite, but I definitely went from hating him to loving him. It's hard not to. The development for him has been solid.
>>
>>150182279
I don't think they'll do movies since shiratorizawa wouldn't even fit in the movie time slot. If the anime continues they'll just have a lot of cliffhanger endings. Fujos have already lost interest in haikyuu so they won't have that cash flow, but I think it could sustain itself on the typical shonen demographic.

Miya will probably think he's hot shit but Kageyama already got the development to deal with his mind games. It's okay for him to be the King as long as he's not an asshole about it. Hinata also seems to have developed to be more level headed on his own.
>>
>>150185539
I was surprised at how fast they resolved this, but at the same time it made felt relieved because I don't think I could have gone through chapters of more Kageyama angst, especially since he has shown over and over again that he regrets how he was in middle school. However, it was true he was holding back, so it was nice to see Karasuno resolve this by simply telling him to not be an asshole and be more tactful depending on the player. And Hinata crowning him king again was just poetry.

You got it wrong

Ushijama was chosen for Japan's U19 team because his way of play is pretty identical to how college volleyball and above is played, his brute strentgh is top tier but that's all he has (which is why Aoba Johsai were training with college teams) and because he was a third year.

Sakusa is already better than him and his team was favourite to win Nationals even before Karasuno beat everyone in Miyagi, in fact that line about Itachiyama being favourite to win it all came out during the Tokyo training arc with Nekoma and Fukudorani.

I'm surprised they brought the King think back like this, but it's exciting because it will bring Karasuno to a whole different level. Kageyama has great game sense but he's been holding back and just trying to accommodate others instead of pushing them to do better.

He must have been holding back so far. I can't wait to actually see him in action because topping Ushijima seems impossible.
>>
>>150186153
Yeah I agree that he was holding back a lot

That white little giant and Kageyama both called him out once

Also he seems to be really obsessed about potential threats so he might have not shown his true power level during the training camp.
>>
>>150185856
To be honest I'm really glad about this development. Mainly because people don't really change. Kageyama is a king, and he should accept that and use to his and his team's advantage. Like they told him, as long as he isn't an asshole about it there should be no problems. And if you reread the manga it's pretty obvious that Kageyama the King still was around but only manifested himself with Hinata who can handle that side of him and even bosses him around and takes the lead from time to time. But with the rest of the team it was different and Kageyama just tried to accommodate himself to them because that's what Ukai told him and because of bad experiences.

It's FUKURODANI, fuckstick, and thanks for pointing out that now will be the time the Owls get their revenge and blow Itachi out of the contest to take their place as the dark horse Big Bad of this tournament. They'll face the winners of Cats vs Crows, who will be Crows because this is their series, and Bokuto's "disciple" will have to step up against his "master" and Crows will lose to Owls because drama.

You'd might as well 'cap this, because that's how this will go down. Then you can feel stupid for having not seen this coming even after I just spelled it out for you.

>>150186901

Oikawa always struck me as a guy who was too good for the school he went to. The rest of Aoba Johsai are not bad at all, but they are really carried by the superior skills of Oikawa.

Ushijima is just an OP antagonist whose only purpose is to be a difficult obstacle for Karasuno to overcome on the way to more important matches. He's graduating and will be irrelevant after this match so he doesn't need to be characterized since he's just a plot device more than anything else.
>>
>>150188323
You could say that about any opponent in that case. Flat, 2D characters; protagonist or antagonist or mob characters or whatever aren't compelling or interesting at all. What point is there in having a difficult obstacle to overcome if there's no depth to it. I don't know if you've read Black Clover, but there are characterswho have just declared themselves the MC's rival for no reason and it comes off as forced and cliche. Compare that to, say, Bungo Stray Dogs, where the MC is in a Senpai-Kouhai relationship and there's an antagonistic rival character who is jealous of the acknowledgement the MC has received. There's a good reason for there to be conflict there, and we as readers understand why the rival character is acting the way they do, which allows us to empathise with them and ultimately care about what happens. I didn't mean to go off on a rant or anything but whatever, there you go.

You could, but that hasn't been the case in haikyuu until now. The other opponent teams such as johzenji, datekou, nekoma, fukurodani, and seijou characters actually have personality that is built up naturally and they feel like actual characters.

Ushijima has this dull presence the entirety he's been in the manga and then one flashback tries to give him depth. It might not have been so bad if it wasn't the longest arc in the manga so far.

Can someone please explain how the tournaments work and stuff? Like, what's the relationship between inter-high, spring, and nationals?
>>
>>150193145
You have lower-tier tournaments to determine prefectural reps at nationals, and the current national tournament for them happens in the spring. There was another one earlier that nobody cares about.
>>
HHHNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG
>>
>>150193145
From what I understand, winning the inter-high grants you access to the nationals. If you lose (like Karasuno), then you get a second chance during the spring tournament, which apparently is harder for some reason I don't remember. Somebody will probably be able to explain it better, because I don't even remember if that's how it works.

btw transparency anon here, let me know if you want anything.

Seriously, Is this literally your first sport anime?
Karasuno is school club, not professional club. So, its member only have chance to play volley as long as they still enroll in that school.

Yama will still get development. It is hinted that him and Tsukki will develop an attack in which Yamas serve would evolve to something that will always destroy enemy formations and all returns will get dunked by Tsukki. They will be the second deadly 1st years combo. Yama will be a starter after the 3yrs graduate or idk when.

What kind of first years do you think the author will add to Karasuno in their next year?

>>150201491
Probably another setter who is experienced and a couple newbies who are joining because of the teams success.

Seems unlikely any of them could be starters though since we still have Ennoshita, Narita, and Kinnoshita. Yamaguchi as well.

>>150201602
I wouldn't be surprised if it goes the YowaPedal route and just includes maybe one character, to give the former benchwarmer 2nd years more room to shine.

As a manga reader, I feel the same. He really was final boss material.
>>
>>150201491
A mix of taller, experienced players who were well-known in Middle school and shorter ones who like Karasuno's way of playing.

However it's really hard to imagine the team without the third years. I would be fine with what >>150202218 says, and given how Furudate has been giving the 2nd years more attention I wouldn't be surprise if he goes this way (that is, if Karasuno lose).
>>
All this passing of the baton is a bit suspicious. First, Daichi to Ennoshita, now Kiyoko to Yachi, and with Kanoka's appearance I think we are heading into an arc about Tanaka becoming the new ace (speaking of which, the only way to develop this would be in a training arc). So I wouldn't be surprised if they lost here, although at the same time there's been a lot of build up for that match against Nekoma.
