We came to cheer you on!
**[03:19] Sawa**
Michimiya! You really came.
**[03:21] Mich**
Wow! You're really going
to play in the finals!
**[03:25] Mich**
That's amazing! It's so... insane!
**[03:26] Suga**
All right. Let's go, everyone.
**[03:28] All**
Yeah.
**[03:29] C-Ko**
What's insane is your lack of vocabulary.
**[03:32] Aya**
Yui...
**[03:33] Mich**
U-Um...
**[03:35] Mich**
So, here!
***SIGN*** Certain Victory Charm

Well, um, it's not just for you personally.
**[03:40] Mich**
It's for all of you guys,
and for us, too... so it's not like...
**[03:44] Sawa**
Oh, thanks!
**[03:46] Sawa**
You're the best, Michimiya!
You're so thoughtful.
**[03:48] Mich**
Huh? I-It's not a big deal...
**[03:51] Sawa**
I'll put it on the bench.
**[03:53] Sawa**
Hope you'll cheer us on!
**[03:55] Mich**
Leave it to us!
**[03:59] C-Ko**
I'm impressed you were even
able to give it to him.

**[04:11] Tana**
Wow...
**[04:14] Tana**
So this is the finals...
There're so many people.
**[04:17] Nish**
Ryu, this is no time to be scared!
**[04:19] Tana**
I'm not scared.
**[04:24] Nish**
Listen, Ryu. Picture this.
**[04:27] Nish**
The finals... Our opponents
are Shiratorizawa.
**[04:31] Nish**
What do you think is going to happen
when we play to a crowd this big?
**[04:34] Tana**
What's going to happen?
**[04:34] Girl**
They always look so much cooler
when they're good players.
**[04:41] Ryu**
*Hup.*
**[04:42] Ryu**
*Bam.*
**[04:45] Both**
*Yeah!*
**[04:47] Girl**
*Nishinoya-kun! Tanaka-kun! You're amazing!*
**[04:53] Shim**
*Nishinoya-kun, Tanaka-kun.*
**[04:57] Shim**
*D-Do your best out there.*
**[05:03] Tana**
Noya-san, I'm gonna do this!
**[05:05] ---**
I'm gonna become a hero after this match.
**[05:08] Nish**
I'm not gonna lose, Ryu!
**[05:11] Kino**
They seem more hyped up than usual.
**[05:13] Enn**
Hey, you're embarrassing us,
so stop screaming!
**[05:13] Both**
Guts! Guts! Guts! Guts!
**[05:17] Nari**
I'm glad those guys never change.
**[05:21] Sawa**
Shut up, you two!
**[05:23] Enn**
As expected...
**[05:24] Sawa**
Come on, let's go.
**[05:25] All**
Yeah!
**[05:27] Tana**
Hinata, do you need to go to the bathroom?
**[05:29] Hina**
I just went!
**[05:31] Izu**
Sho-chan!
**[05:34] Hina**
I-Izumin! Koji!
**[05:37] Who**
Hey, it's been a while!
**[05:41] Hina**
Oh! They're from my middle
school volley... I mean...
**[05:45] Hina**
They're the people who helped me
during my volleyball match!
**[05:48] Izu**
I was on the basketball team.
**[05:50] Koji**
I was on the soccer team.
**[05:52] Tana**
I was wondering why there was
someone with really good footwork.
**[05:58] Koji**
He's...
**[06:00] ---**
Why's he here?!
**[06:02] Hina**
I said the same thing at first.
**[06:05] Hina**
He had a lot going on before.
**[06:08] Guy**
Isn't that the King?
**[06:10] Guy**
Are you sure you'll be okay, Shoyo?
**[06:13] Hina**
Just watch.
**[06:16] Kage**
Hey, let's go, Hinata.
**[06:19] Hina**
Oh, well, I hope you cheer us on.
**[06:21] Koji**
Do your best.
**[06:22] Hina**
Yeah!
**[06:24] Koji**
We texted, but only about what I was up to.
**[06:27] Izu**
Who knew they'd have a reunion...
**[06:29] Kage**
Who are they?
**[06:31] Izu**
So Sho-chan finally made some friends.
**[06:31] Hina**
They were in the match
with me in junior high.
**[06:33] Kage**
Shut up. Like I remember
everyone I played against.
**[06:34] Koji**
Yeah...
**[06:38] Hina**
And that's exactly why you don't
have friends, Kageyama-kun.
**[06:42] Kage**
Why, you...
**[06:44] Sawa**
Hey! Stop it, you two!
**[06:45] Tsuki**
You're wasting energy before the finals?
**[06:47] ---**
Are you guys completely stupid?
**[06:50] Tsuki**
Well, we might immediately lose anyway.
**[07:00] Sawa**
Good grief. Come on, let's go.
**[07:06] Sawa**
All right. As soon as we put our
stuff away, we're going to warm up...
**[07:09] Suga**
Ow! What the heck, Daichi?!
**[07:12] Guy**
Up until recently, they couldn't
even get past their second match.
**[07:15] Guy**
Karasuno couldn't fly or crow.
**[07:18] Guy**
Hopefully them making it to
finals isn't some fluke, either.
**[07:22] Kei**
Oh, that guy's here again?
**[07:25] Sawa**
Do you know him?
**[07:26] Kei**
Nah, he would just show up
to matches every so often.
**[07:29] Kei**
I don't think he's someone's relative,
**[07:31] ---**
so I think he might just be a high school
volleyball fan that likes Karasuno.
**[07:35] Kei**
He'll cheer for plays he thinks were good,
and boo the bad ones.
**[07:36] Guy**
Where's Karasuno's cheering section?
**[07:39] Guy**
You should at least make that clear.
**[07:40] Kei**
He's always been easy to read.
**[07:43] Kei**
Have you guys seen him before?
**[07:45] Suga**
Yes. When we were still first-years,
**[07:48] ---**
he came to one of our games...
**[07:51] Sawa**
We'll never let him say that
we're grounded crows again.

**[09:03] All**
Right!
**[09:05] Student**
The vice-principal sure seems
worked up about this, suddenly.
**[09:06] Vice**
Come on. We need to practice once.
**[09:09] Vice**
Ready, and...
**[09:09] Student**
Was he always like that?
**[09:11] Vice**
Go, go, Karasuno! Push it, push it, Karasuno!
**[09:15] Crowd**
Go, go, Karasuno! Push it, push it, Karasuno!
**[09:20] Vice**
Hey! We just practiced this yesterday!
**[09:23] Ono**
Sir, you say we practiced,
but it was just a little bit after school...
**[09:31] Taki**
A-Are they going to be okay?
**[09:33] Shima**
We can't panic!
**[09:36] Shima**
Look at them! Look how confident they are!
**[09:39] Hina**
I'm going to the bathroom again.
**[09:41] Yama**
I-I need stomach medicine.
**[09:43] Azu**
Me, too...
**[09:44] Kage**
Center court...
**[09:46] Tana**
Noya-san, cheer! Cheer!
**[09:47] Yach**
Are you okay, Yamaguchi-kun?!
**[09:49] Nish**
So jealous! Damn it!
**[09:50] Sawa**
Tanaka, Nishinoya, shut up!
**[09:53] Tsuki**
You guys are panicking way too much.
**[09:54] Take**
E-Every... Everyone, calm...
**[09:57] Izu**
This is Karasuno?
**[10:00] Aki**
I'm not anyone suspicious!
**[10:03] Sae**
I saw this suspicious guy wandering around.
**[10:05] ---**
He ran when he saw me, so I caught him!
**[10:07] Aki**
Hey!
**[10:08] Sae**
I thought he might be a Shiratorizawa spy.
**[10:10] Shim**
What?!
**[10:12] Aki**
W-Wait! I'm a relative!
**[10:14] ---**
I'm Tsukishima Kei's older brother!
**[10:17] Both**
Tsukishima's older brother?!
**[10:19] Aki**
Shh! Shh!
**[10:20] ---**
He told me not to come to the match.
**[10:27] Taki**
Those two are nothing alike...
especially their personalities.
**[10:31] Sae**
Huh?
**[10:34] Shir**

Yeah, they definitely feel

**[11:25] Tana**
Come to think of it, the other
team hasn't shown up yet.
**[11:28] Azu**
Yeah, they're late.
**[11:30] Tana**
Damn it. They must be
taking their sweet time.

**[12:13] (Flashback) Kei**
All right, let's start our meeting.
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Academy Countermeasure Documents
**[12:20] (Flashback) Kei**
Hey, I know you're tired from
already playing two matches today,
**[12:23] (Flashback) Kei**
but you'd better listen.
**[12:25] (Flashback) Kei**
Tomorrow's the next match.
**[12:27] (Flashback) Kei**
First, I'm going to start
with my honest opinion...
**[12:30] (Flashback) Kei**
If the most complete team in
the prefecture is Aoba Johsai,
**[12:34] (Flashback) Kei**
Shiratorizawa is the most incomplete
team in the prefecture.
**[12:39] (Flashback) Sawa**
Incomplete?
**[12:40] (Flashback) Kei**
Do you know why I think that?
**[12:43] (Flashback) Kei**
That's because I looked at the
file your managers made
**[12:48] (Flashback) ---**
after they found out everything
they could about Shiratorizawa.
**[12:52] (Flashback) Both**
Kiyoko-san did that for me?!
**[12:54] (Flashback) Shim**
No, it was for all of you.
**[12:59] (Flashback) Shim**
That's about all that we can do, so...
**[13:02] (Flashback) Shim**
Right, Hitoka-chan?
**[13:04] (Flashback) Yach**
Oh, yes.
**[13:05] (Flashback) ---**
We wanted to be of some use to you all...
**[13:07] (Flashback) Hina**
Thank you, Yachi-san!
**[13:09] (Flashback) Kei**
You guys had better not let it go to waste!
**[13:11] (Flashback) Kei**
You'd better clean out those ears and listen!
**[13:13] (Flashback) All**
Right!
**[13:15] (Flashback) Sawa**
Um, so what do you mean by "incomplete team"?
**[13:18] (Flashback) Kei**
If you'd call the attacks we and most
other teams do multiplication,
**[13:23] (Flashback) Kei**
Shiratorizawa is addition.
**[13:25] (Flashback) Kei**
Their addition consists of adding
powerful strengths together.
**[13:28] (Flashback) Kei**
We use speed, the differences in positions,
**[13:30] (Flashback) ---**
and time as techniques to get through blocks.
**[13:35] (Flashback) Kei**
Shiratorizawa also uses
the difference in time,
**[13:37] (Flashback) ---**
but when their receives are a bit off,
**[13:39] (Flashback) Kei**
or in cases where they want
to score, no matter what,
**[13:41] (Flashback) Kei**
they set really high to their wing
spikers, especially Ushijima.
**[13:46] (Flashback) Kei**
There is only one reason for that.
**[13:48] (Flashback) Kei**
Because they can absolutely
get a point that way.
**[13:56] Gosh**
Sorry!
**[13:58] Kei**
* They'll come out hitting without*
* thinking twice about our guard,*
**[14:01] Kei**
*with power we've never experienced before.*
**[14:05] Kei**
*You'd better be prepared!*
**[14:08] Mich**
He managed to hit that all the way up here?
**[14:11] C-Ko**
He hits so high!
**[14:12] Kei**
*They're simply destroying everything*
**[14:15] ---**
*with their one ultimate spear.*
**[14:17] Kei**
*That's the kind of team Shiratorizawa is.*
**[14:20] Kei**
*Though Ushiwaka is their best,*
**[14:22] Kei**
* it's not like the rest of that*
* team is ordinary, either.*
**[14:30] Ten**
Here!
**[14:32] Yach**
They look like they're hitting it so lightly,
**[14:34] ---**
but it looks like it would break
my arms off if I tried to touch it.
**[14:37] Crowd**
Fire it up, Wakatoshi!
**[14:38] Hina**
Ushiwaka's amazing...
**[14:41] Crowd**
Fire it up, Wakatoshi!
**[14:43] Hina**
I'm excited!
**[14:47] ---**
Yeah.
**[14:48] Crowd**
Fire it up, Eita!
**[14:52] Both**
Yeah!
**[14:56] Hina**
Thanks!
**[14:59] Crowd**
Fire it up, Wakatoshi!
**[14:59] Hina**
He's Benkei...
**[15:02] ---**
*That guy's totally Benkei.*
**[15:02] Crowd**
Fire it up, Wakatoshi!
**[15:05] Gos**
Leon-san.
**[15:05] Tai**
What's up?
**[15:06] Hin**
*Leon?!*
**[15:08] Ten**
That little kid totally gave
Leon-kun the nickname "Benkei."
**[15:12] Leon**
Sorry to shatter your dreams.
**[15:15] Semi**
So that's one of the guys from
Karasuno's first-year quick combo.
**[15:18] Ten**
Oh, it was?
**[15:20] Azu**
Bring it!
**[15:21] Shira**
Look! There's a tiny kid!
**[15:23] ---**
I wonder if he's a sub.
**[15:23] Both**
Nice kill!
**[15:25] Shira**
I sort of feel bad for him.
**[15:27] Girl**
I always feel like I want
to cheer for the underdog.
**[15:32] Both**
Nice kill!
**[15:34] Tana**
Hey, you two. Do that
thing you did yesterday!
**[15:38] (Flashback) Kei**
But I can say the following
with confidence...
**[15:41] (Flashback) Kei**
We definitely won't lose when
it comes to scoring points!
**[15:45] Kei**
*First...*
**[15:48] Kei**
*Conquer this fight.*
**[15:57] Semi**
That shrimp shot straight down!
**[15:59] Ten**
More importantly, he's fast!
**[16:01] Ten**
Did the setter even touch it?
**[16:03] Yama**
I was surprised that Seijoh
didn't make it this time,
**[16:06] ---**
but Karasuno's pretty fun.
**[16:08] Leon**
Yeah.
**[16:10] Gosh**
It doesn't matter who we're up against.
We'll shut them down!
**[16:13] Shir**
Talk big when you can actually back it up.
**[16:16] Ten**
Now, now, now...
**[16:18] Ten**
I see that your bangs and your
words are as cool as ever, Tsutomu.
**[16:21] Gos**
Thanks!
**[16:23] Kawa**
And I think you babying him
is exactly the problem.
**[16:26] Ten**
Harsh! You're so harsh, Taichi!
**[16:29] Ten**
I'm just counting on him.
**[16:31] Ten**
I mean, he's a first-year and a regular
**[16:33] ---**
and the one who's going to become the ace.
**[16:37] Gosh**
I'll do my best to not let you down!
**[16:40] Semi**
Right. Do your best, future ace.
**[16:44] Shir**
His head will get even more
inflated, so please stop.
**[16:46] Ushi**
First, receives.
**[16:48] Ten**
We're counting on you yet again,
Wakatoshi-kun.
**[16:51] Leon**
You need to work harder.
**[16:53] ---**
Don't just rely on Wakatoshi.
**[16:55] Ten**
What are you, his right arm?
Are you Benkei?
**[16:58] Gosh**
Ushijima-san!
**[17:00] Gosh**
I'll prove that I'm the one
who should be called the ace
**[17:04] ---**
in these finals.
**[17:10] Ush**
Yeah. Do your best.
**[17:13] Yama**
He's actually honestly saying that,
so he's sort of a jerk.
**[17:20] Kei**
Their starting lineup is just as we thought.
**[17:22] ---**
Did you memorize their characteristics?
**[17:24] All**
Yes!
**[17:25] Kei**
We're not going to let Ushijima
decide how this goes!
**[17:27] Kei**
If they score, switch gears and get the
ball back! That's all you need to do!
**[17:30] Kei**
They aren't machines over there.
**[17:32] Kei**
They'll mess up sometimes.
**[17:34] Kei**
You know what you need to do, right?
**[17:36] All**
Yes!
**[17:38] Take**
All right, everyone. This is the finals.
**[17:41] Take**
Since we got this far,
let's win and go to nationals!
**[17:44] All**
Yeah!

**[20:07] Lady**
Coach, Washijo Tanji.
**[20:12] Lady**
Ladies and gentlemen,
**[20:14] ---**
please cheer on both teams
and wish them the best.
**[20:21] Sae**
I'm totally starting to feel their nerves.
**[20:23] Shima**
I thought they were doing okay when I saw
**[20:26] ---**
the one shot Hinata took after their warmups.
**[20:28] Taki**
This is a path they've gone down many times.
**[20:32] Taki**
On the other hand, our guys
are facing their first finals,
**[20:34] Taki**
and their first center court.
**[20:36] Taki**
You can't blame them for being nervous.
**[20:40] Aki**
Since it's their first finals,
is this their first five-set match, too?
**[20:43] Sae**
Five sets?
**[20:44] Shima**
Up until now, they played three-set matches
and whoever got two sets first won.
**[20:48] Shim**
In the finals, they play a five-set match
and whoever gets three sets first wins,
**[20:51] Shim**
just like the top-level games you see on TV.
**[20:53] Sae**
What?! That's gonna be super tiring!
**[20:55] Shima**
Yeah...
**[20:57] Shima**
I'm worried about their stamina.
**[21:01] Sae**
We can't be the ones who are down!
**[21:08] Shima**
This is a different start than usual.
**[21:10] Cheer**
All right, let's go!
**[21:10] Taki**
They usually start with a strong
server or Hinata on the front line.
**[21:15] Taki**
Aren't they going to try to match up
**[21:16] ---**
the highest wall possible against Ushijima?
**[21:19] Taki**
They'll have to see how they
handle their serves, too.

**[21:34] (Flashback) Ush**

Well hello, Left.
**[24:12] Sae**
So, what's up with your disguise?
**[24:14] Aki**
A cap and huge sunglasses are
like the classic disguise!
**[24:17] Yach**
Oh, yeah. Kageyama-kun had
a similar disguise before.
**[24:20] Aki**
See?
**[24:21] Sai**
That just means you're both
equally simpleminded...

Sorry!
**[02:19] Leon**
Nice serve, Taichi!

**[02:28] Both**
Got it!
**[02:28] Tsuki**
Tanaka-san!
**[02:32] Tana**
Sorry!
**[02:33] Azu**
My bad.
**[02:34] Sawa**
Don't mind!
**[02:34] Kage**
*Are they nervous after all?*
**[02:36] ---**
*Their movements are stiff...*
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[02:40] Sawa**
Damn it.
**[02:42] Sawa**
* We need to hurry up and regroup*
* or it'll be too late...*
**[02:43] Suga**
Calm down!
**[02:46] Sug**
There's no time to self-destruct!
**[02:48] Hina**
U-Um...
**[02:48] Sug**
What the hell are you so
nervous about?! The TV crews?
**[02:51] Sug**
Quit messing around!
**[02:55] Sawa**
Got it! We got it, Suga, so calm down!
**[02:58] Ryu**
*Suga-san's scary...*
**[02:58] Sawa**
I'm so sorry!
**[03:00] Take**
Someone gets far more agitated than the players
and it helps calm them down...
**[03:05] Kei**
I don't care what the circumstance is.
**[03:07] Kei**
I just need them to score once
and build momentum.
**[03:10] Suga**
*Crap... He totally glared at me...*
**[03:17] Leon**
Nice serve! One more!
**[03:19] Sawa**
Got it!
**[03:21] Shima**
Yes! It went up nicely!
**[03:23] Taki**
Go!
**[03:26] Leon**
Nice receive!
**[03:29] Leon**
Wakatoshi!
**[03:33] Crowd**
All right!
**[03:37] Yama**
Don't mind! Next, next!
**[03:38] Crowd**
Ushijima!
**[03:41] Crowd**
Ushijima! Ushijima!
**[03:42] Nishi**
Give me three.
**[03:46] Nishi**
I promise I'll get used to it.
**[03:52] Sae**
Huh? I thought something was weird!
**[03:56] Ushi**
One more!
**[03:56] Sae**
Their #1 is left-handed?
**[03:58] Sae**
So that's why he approaches from the right.
**[04:00] Sae**
Ryu always goes in from the left.
**[04:03] Taki**
Yeah.
**[04:04] ---**
Man... talk about a chosen ace.
***SIGN*** Opposite
***SIGN*** Setter
**[04:09] Taki**
Ushiwaka's position is called “opposite,”
**[04:12] Taki**
and they're diagonal from the setter.
**[04:15] Taki**
On Karasuno's side, it's where Sawamura is.
**[04:18] Taki**
Depending on how the player
in that position plays,
**[04:20] Taki**
the way the whole team plays changes.
**[04:23] Taki**
One pattern is to have a
player like Sawamura there,
**[04:23] Sawa**
Got it!
**[04:25] Sawa**
All right!
**[04:26] Tana**
Nice, Daichi-san!
**[04:26] Taki**
who's a player that's skilled
all-around, and good at defense.
**[04:27] Tana**
Left!
**[04:29] Taki**
That's pretty common on high school teams.
**[04:31] Taki**
The other pattern is to have
a cannon like Ushiwaka there.
**[04:33] Leon**
Nice receive!
**[04:36] Taki**
They don't serve or receive,
**[04:38] ---**
and are always prepared to attack,
**[04:40] Taki**
from either the front or back line.
**[04:43] Aki**
A while back,
**[04:44] ---**
they were called super aces.
**[04:50] Guy**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
**[04:54] Crowd**
Ushijima! Ushijima!
**[04:56] Sae**
I get that Ushiwaka guy is
super tall and super strong,
**[05:00] Sae**
but does the fact that he's
left-handed make him that—
**[05:03] Tana**
Bring it!
**[05:07] All**
All right!
**[05:07] All**
All right!
**[05:10] All**
All right!
**[05:11] Suga**
Tanaka, nice kill!
**[05:12] Crowd**
Go, go, Karasuno! Push it, push it, Karasuno!
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[05:17] Crowd**
Go, go, Karasuno! Push it, push it, Karasuno!
**[05:19] Yachi**
We finally got a point in...
**[05:21] Sae**
Way to go, Ryu!
**[05:23] Sae**
So, what's so special about the lefty?
**[05:27] Shim**
Since they go up against people who
are right-handed way more often,
**[05:31] Shim**
playing against someone who's
left-handed is unbelievably difficult.
**[05:35] Taki**
For example, when a single blocker goes up,
**[05:39] Taki**
they jump up facing their
opponent's dominant hand.
**[05:41] Taki**
Which means they're about
a shoulder's width away.
**[05:45] Taki**
So unless the attack is a very simple one,
**[05:46] Tana**
Asahi-san, nice serve!
**[05:48] Taki**
the showdown is over in a moment.
**[05:50] Taki**
If they jump up in a way
their body is used to...
**[05:54] Tsuki**
*Time difference...*
**[05:58] Taki**
...they'll end up missing, no matter what.
**[06:00] Crowd**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
**[06:00] Old**
What the hell are they doing?
**[06:02] ---**
Karasuno's blocks are full of holes!
**[06:05] Crowd**
Ushijima! Ushijima!
**[06:05] Shim**
It's not just the fact that he's
left-handed that makes him strong.
**[06:08] Shim**
Not only is he left-handed,
but his strength is also top-tier.
**[06:09] Tend**
Wakatoshi-kun, nice kill!
I see you're as sharp as ever.
**[06:12] Ushi**
Yeah.
**[06:13] Shim**
That's what Ushiwaka is.
**[06:15] Take**
So they already scored four straight
points because of Ushijima-kun.
**[06:19] Kei**
Yeah.
**[06:20] Kei**
Their setter seems to have solid hands,
**[06:21] Sawa**
Rotate! Rotate!
**[06:22] All**
Right!
**[06:22] Kei**
and I'm sure he'd like to
get some in from the get-go.
***SIGN*** Japanese National High School Volleyball Tournament
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[06:32] Sae**
Huh? What's that buzzer for?
**[06:33] Yachi**
Oh, this is a technical time out.
**[06:34] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[06:36] Sae**
What's that?
**[06:37] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[06:37] Yachi**
It's a time-out that only
happens during five-set matches,
**[06:40] Yachi**
when one of the teams
hits 8 or 16 points...
**[06:41] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[06:44] Yachi**
Apparently.
**[06:44] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[06:46] Sae**
Huh...
**[06:48] Kei**
Blocking all comes down to timing!
**[06:48] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[06:51] Kei**
If they get through the top, it'll be
difficult to prepare to receive, as well.
**[06:51] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[06:54] Kei**
You need to touch the ball,
even if you can't stop it!
**[06:55] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[06:56] Kei**
Make Ushijima feel that there's a wall.
**[06:58] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[06:59] All**
Right!
***SIGN*** Japanese National High School Volleyball Tournament
***SIGN*** Fly
***SIGN*** Be Courageous Warriors
**[07:11] Sawa**
One touch!
**[07:12] Tana**
Damn it!
**[07:14] Guy**
Wow...
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[07:15] Guy**
Ushijima!
**[07:16] Guy**
Ushiwaka's unstoppable.
**[07:18] Crowd**
Ushijima! Ushijima!
**[07:19] Yama**
Don't mind! Get the next one!
**[07:21] Kei**
That's it! Just keep that up!
**[07:24] Kei**
* Keep letting him know that*
* there's a wall there.*
**[07:26] Kei**
*Then a path will open up!*
**[07:30] (Flashback) Nishi**
Shiratorizawa has Ushiwaka.
**[07:33] (Flashback) Nishi**
Then...
**[07:34] (Flashback) Nishi**
Karasuno has me.
**[07:39] (Flashback) Kei**
Right.
**[07:41] (Flashback) Kei**
Stopping all of Ushijima's attacks,
**[07:43] (Flashback) Kei**
or even picking them all up, is impossible.
**[07:47] (Flashback) Kei**
But...
***SIGN*** Ushijima Block Nishinoya
**[07:48] (Flashback) Kei**
All you've got to do is make those
impossible spikes possible.
**[07:52] (Flashback) Hina**
Hm?
**[07:54] (Flashback) Kei**
Total defense.
***SIGN*** Ushijima
***SIGN*** Block
***SIGN*** Nishinoya
**[07:56] (Flashback) Kei**
Ushijima's really good at angle shots,
as we've seen in past games,
**[08:00] (Flashback) Kei**
so we're going to tighten up
our block on those,
**[08:02] (Flashback) Kei**
and place Nishinoya where the now
opened straight path would be.
**[08:06] (Flashback) Kei**
We're going to set it up so
he's hitting to our libero.
**[08:13] Kei**
*Nice timing!*
***SIGN*** Be Courageous Warriors
**[08:23] Crowd**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[08:27] Crowd**
Ushijima! Ushijima!
**[08:33] Sae**
If Yu can't pick those up,
he's going to be impossible to handle.
**[08:37] Aki**
I think it's because of the spin.
**[08:40] Sae**
Hm?
**[08:41] Aki**
Spiking left-handed means
**[08:43] ---**
the ball will spin differently
than spiking right-handed.
**[08:48] Aki**
Volleyball is a sport where
you can't hold the ball,
**[08:51] Aki**
and the space to capture
it is extremely narrow.
**[08:54] Aki**
So the moment you capture the ball,
**[08:56] Aki**
if the way it hits your hands
is even a tiny bit off,
**[08:59] Aki**
it causes a huge deviation.
**[09:08] Yama**
Chance ball!
**[09:10] Tana**
Damn it! I'm sorry!
**[09:15] Tsuki**
*Our timing was too fast...*
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[09:27] Crowd**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
**[09:27] Tsuki**
*It may be called total defense,*
**[09:29] Tsuki**
* but even just getting our*
* timing down isn't easy.*
**[09:31] Crowd**
Ushijima! Ushijima!
**[09:33] Enn**
Concentrate on number one!
**[09:36] Yama**
* Do you think you'll be able*
* to stop Ushiwaka's spikes?*
**[09:42] (Flashback) Tsuki**
There's no way that I can beat Ushiwaka.
**[09:50] Kawa**
All right!
**[09:51] Tsuki**
*I've been focusing too much on Ushiwaka.*
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[09:55] Crowd**
Kawanishi! Kawanishi!
**[09:55] Old**
Is that kid with the glasses even trying?
**[09:58] Old**
He needs to show some more
of that fighting spirit!
**[10:00] Old**
Fighting spirit!
**[10:01] Shim**
They're sneaking in some quicks really well.
**[10:05] Sae**
They've gotta hurry and do something
about the left-handed guy.
**[10:08] Yach**
I guess there's not much they can
do about how much they're used
**[10:11] ---**
to right-handed shots.
**[10:17] All**
All right!
**[10:17] Kawa**
Sorry!
**[10:19] Leon**
Don't mind.
**[10:19] Aki**
At the very least,
**[10:20] Aki**
he's the exact opposite
from the kind of player
**[10:22] ---**
that moves based on sensations.
**[10:25] Tna**
Nice serve!
**[10:26] Aki**
He doesn't believe in his own strength.
**[10:29] Aki**
And he doesn't trust the senses he's built up.
**[10:31] Gosh**
Nice receive!
**[10:35] Se**
How could you say that?!
You're his older brother!
**[10:37] Aki**
I'm complimenting him!
**[10:38] Aki**
You see, with my brother,
**[10:40] ---**
the more he feels let down,
the calmer he gets.
**[10:42] Aki**
He only believes in the information
that his eyes can see.
**[10:48] Tsuk**
*Got it.*
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[11:04] Aki**
*Kei was in the path of the spike right now.*
**[11:07] Aki**
*He was also positioned correctly on the left.*
**[11:09] Aki**
*So why...*
**[11:12] Enn**
You were so close, Nishinoya!
**[11:13] Enn**
You're actually able to
react to Ushiwaka's spikes!
**[11:16] Nish**
The spike that I was actually able to touch
**[11:18] Nish**
is definitely not his full strength.
**[11:20] Nish**
He's probably still warming up his engine,
**[11:23] Nish**
and concentrating on getting
his spikes over our blocks.
**[11:28] Ryu**
I remember in middle school,
**[11:30] ---**
getting passes from a guy that
was left-handed was really hard.
**[11:34] Sawa**
So apparently with Ushiwaka's shots...
**[11:35] Sawa**
his off-speed shots are killer, too.
**[11:41] Yama**
Tsukki, man, you jammed your finger?
Are you okay?
**[11:43] Tsuk**
Did you have to rhyme that?
**[11:46] Enn**
I'll do it. Let me see.
**[11:48] Tsuk**
Thank you.
**[11:49] Tsuk**
This isn't any different from the usual.
**[11:51] Tsuki**
Actually,
**[11:52] Tsuk**
if it just stays like this, we'll be lucky.
**[11:56] Enn**
There you go.
**[11:57] Tsuk**
Thank you.
**[11:59] Tsuk**
*Did I hesitate back there?*
**[12:02] Tsuk**
*No... I thought that I would lose.*
**[12:06] Tsuk**
*As if that was without a doubt.*
**[12:16] Take**
Guys! Your faces are stiff!
**[12:19] Take**
Relax! Relax! Rel—
**[12:21] Tke**
...ax.
**[12:27] Take**
Ushijima-kun's serves were pretty
amazing, too, weren't they?
**[12:31] Kei**
He doesn't have monster precision
or control like Oikawa,
**[12:35] Kei**
but his impact speaks for itself.
**[12:50] All**
Nice serve!
**[12:53] Sae**
I don't get it...
**[12:55] Sae**
What's with that guy?
**[12:57] Taki**
If they get any farther ahead of us,
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[12:59] Taki**
it'll be hard on them mentally, too.
**[13:02] Swa**
Sorry! We'll get the next one!
**[13:04] All**
Right!
**[13:05] Tsuk**
* Thank goodness I'm not in*
* position to receive a serve.*
**[13:09] Tsuk**
* Trying to get that serve*
* head-on is crazy,*
**[13:12] Tsuk**
* and it's like the whole gym is*
* cheering for Shiratorizawa.*
**[13:16] Tsuk**
* We're probably going to have*
* to give up this first set,*
**[13:19] Tsuk**
*and then...*
**[13:21] Nishi**
*Bring it.*
**[13:23] Nishi**
*Bring it! Bring it!*
**[13:26] Nishi**
*Bring it! Bring it! Bring it!*
**[13:27] Yama**
One more!

**[14:20] Ten**
*Is he planning to hit it?*
**[14:26] All**
All right!
**[14:28] Sug**
Nice toss, Kageyama!
**[14:30] Hina**
I totally thought Kageyama
was going to spike it...
**[14:33] Azu**
He definitely did what he said he'd do.
**[14:36] Sawa**
We can't just stand around.
**[14:40] Shir**
He went to set from a spike motion.
**[14:43] Shir**
Nothing less from Oikawa's junior.
**[14:45] Ten**
Huh? He is?!
**[14:47] ---**
That sucks!
**[14:48] Tna**
You seem pretty relaxed, considering
we're playing against Shiratorizawa.
**[14:52] Kage**
Well,
**[14:53] Kage**
no one scares me more than
Oikawa-san for the time being.
**[14:56] Tana**
I see!
**[14:59] Hina**
All right! Time to fight back!
**[15:05] Sae**
Shoyo came out!
**[15:07] Yach**
The first time he came out,
**[15:08] ---**
he was immediately rotated out.
**[15:11] Sae**
Get one in there!
**[15:13] Hina**
Nice serve!
**[15:15] Ten**
Man, he's really short.
**[15:17] Ten**
And he's somehow a middle
blocker despite that.
**[15:27] Gosh**
Nice receive!
**[15:27] Sae**
You're right! He really won't go for serves.
**[15:30] Shim**
He's getting ready for a back attack.
**[15:36] All**
All right!
**[15:36] Kge**
*One person's time difference...*
**[15:38] Ten**
Yay!
**[15:43] ---**
Tendo! Tendo!
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[15:47] Gosh**
Nice serve!
**[15:51] Azu**
Out!
**[15:53] All**
All right!
**[15:54] Kei**
Nice call!
**[15:56] Take**
It's not that Shiratorizawa
isn't making any mistakes.
**[15:59] Take**
We can break through!
**[16:06] All**
All right!
**[16:08] Take**
Yes!
**[16:09] Kei**
The fact that Kageyama and Nishinoya
are playing like they normally do
**[16:09] Hina**
Nice serve, Kageyama!
**[16:11] ---**
is nothing less than amazing.
**[16:13] Take**
Yes.
**[16:21] Shira**
Goshiki!
**[16:25] Goosh**
All right!
**[16:26] All**
All right!
**[16:29] Gosh**
*Did you see my super straight shot?!*
**[16:33] Ushi**
Nice receive.
**[16:34] Leon**
Nah, I wasn't able to return it properly.
**[16:36] Shira**
Don't you get tired of
competing for attention?
**[16:36] Leon**
That kid's pretty strong for a first-year.
**[16:39] Hina**
Let's go, Kageyama.
**[16:41] Kage**
Yeah.
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[16:49] Gosh**
Ushijima-san!
**[16:54] Sae**
All right! He got it!
**[16:57] Nish**
*Damn! I didn't catch it completely.*
**[16:59] Tana**
Hinata, get the last!
**[17:05] Shim**
He hit it against the block!
**[17:06] Taki**
That was a great rebound!
**[17:08] Azu**
Once more! Once more!
**[17:14] Ten**
Huh?
**[17:16] Hina**
*I'm Hinata Shoyo, from the concrete.*
**[17:21] (Flashback) Hina**
I'm going to beat you, and go to nationals.
**[17:32] Sae**
So he knows how to receive, too?!
**[17:36] Ush**
Give it to me.
**[17:39] Shir**
Ushijima-san!
***SIGN*** Be Courageous Warriors
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[17:51] All**
All right!
**[17:58] Ten**
Wow, Wakatoshi-kun,
who's only interested in himself,
**[18:01] ---**
is actually competing with someone.
**[18:03] Ten**
How amusing!
**[18:07] Sae**
It's not over yet!
It's just the beginning!
**[18:09] Yach**
Switch it up!
**[18:12] Tana**
Next, next!
**[18:13] Ten**
Wakatoshi-kun, do you know Karasuno's #10?
**[18:17] Ushi**
I met him on the street.
**[18:18] Ten**
The street?
**[18:19] Ush**
He said that he was going to
beat me and go to nationals.
**[18:22] Ten**
What?! In the street?
**[18:24] Ush**
No, not in the street.
**[18:27] Shira**
Come to think of it, Ushijima-san,
**[18:29] Shira**
didn't you get in trouble for letting
outsiders onto school grounds?
**[18:32] Ten**
Karasuno's #10 is so amusing!
**[18:35] ---**
So that's why you like him.
**[18:36] Ush**
No, I dislike him.
**[18:37] All**
Huh?
**[18:39] Ush**
I hate confidence that has no basis.
**[18:43] Ten**
Oh? This is even more rare.
**[18:46] Ten**
Considering he's making
Wakatoshi-kun say such things,
**[18:49] Ten**
sounds like he'll entertain me.
**[18:53] Ten**
I guess I'll work hard, too.
**[18:57] Kei**
There's no reason to panic.
**[18:59] Kei**
They just happened to take
the first of five matches.
**[19:03] Kei**
And about this match...
**[19:05] Kei**
Ushijima scored eleven points,
**[19:07] ---**
so he scored almost half of the points.
**[19:11] Kei**
But the fact that the ball
is going to Ushijima so often
**[19:14] Kei**
means that you're frustrating
Shiratorizawa that much.
**[19:18] Kei**
Ushijima is also human.
**[19:20] Kei**
He'll eventually reach
the end of his stamina.
**[19:23] Kei**
He'll eventually start
to feel even the attacks
**[19:25] ---**
that he's not making himself.
**[19:27] Kei**
Don't forget that!
**[19:28] Kara**
Right!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[19:32] Nishi**
Bring it!
**[19:34] Ym**
You better get one from the start, Tsutomu!
**[19:36] Gosh**
Right!
**[19:43] Gosh**
*Good.*
**[19:48] All**
*Synchronized attack!*
**[19:51] Leon**
*The four of them are attacking at once?*
**[19:59] All**
All right!
**[19:59] Swa**
Yes!
**[20:00] Crowd**
Go, go, Karasuno! Push it, push it, Karasuno!
**[20:04] Leon**
So they tricked us.
**[20:06] Kawa**
That's troublesome.
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[20:09] Tana**
Daichi-san, nice serve!
**[20:12] Leon**
Got it!
**[20:14] Shira**
Nice receive!
**[20:18] Shira**
Nice.
**[20:18] Kawa**
Yup.
**[20:20] Kei**
In the case of Shiratorizawa,
**[20:22] Kei**
the fact that they're going for the center
line without using Ushijima is showing
**[20:25] Kei**
that they have the upper hand.
***SIGN*** Ushijima (WS) Kawanishi (MB) Goshiki (WS)
Ohira (WS) Tendo (MB) Shirabu (S)
**[20:27] Kei**
And if the center line starts functioning,
**[20:30] Kei**
we're not going to be able to handle Ushijima,
or their other wing spikers.
**[20:36] All**
All right!
**[20:37] Sawa**
Nice kill!
**[20:38] Kei**
Our most difficult problem in
this match is, of course, Ushijima.
**[20:43] Kei**
We need an anti-Ushijima strategy first,
or we don't stand a chance.
**[20:48] Kei**
And for that, we need to
break down our opponents.
**[20:48] Suga**
Asahi, nice serve!
**[20:51] Kei**
We need to just keep serving up
powerful attacks, one after another.
**[20:59] Suga**
All right! It's off!
**[21:01] Shir**
Ushijima-san!
**[21:06] All**
All right!
**[21:07] Nish**
Damn it...
**[21:08] Sawa**
Don't mind! Don't mind!
**[21:09] Take**
Even if they get a point,
**[21:11] ---**
we just have to keep doing
what we just did, right?
**[21:13] Kei**
Yeah.
**[21:15] Sae**
Ugh.
**[21:16] Sae**
That guy's serving again.
**[21:21] Yama**
Wakatoshi, nice serve!
**[21:31] Tana**
It's just as I planned!
**[21:33] Tsuk**
You're tearing up.
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[21:34] Sawa**
Well done, Tanaka!
**[21:36] Tak**
All right. They're keeping up.
**[21:37] Aki**
If they can get used to Ushiwaka's left-handedness,
they have a chance at winning.
**[21:43] Hina**
I'm gonna go show Ushiwaka who's boss!
**[21:46] Suga**
Did something happen with
Hinata and Ushiwaka?
**[21:49] Yama**
Apparently they had some kind of scuffle.
**[21:52] Suga**
What?! He keeps causing trouble with
other schools without us knowing.
**[21:59] Kei**
*Don't hold back.*
**[22:00] Hina**
Bring it!
**[22:01] Kei**
*Just keep on attacking.*
**[22:03] Kei**
*That's the only strategy we have.*
**[22:07] Tana**
Chance ball!
**[22:10] Hina**
Give it to me!
**[22:12] Shira**
*It's that diagonal jump again!*
**[22:34] Ten**
If you want to beat Wakatoshi-kun,
**[22:36] ---**
you're gonna have to beat me, first.
**[22:38] Ten**
Ya know?
**[24:13] Ten**
The more that Wakatoshi-kun gets attention,
**[24:16] Ten**
the more impactful it is when I appear.
**[24:20] Shir**
Tendo-san, your personality
really is trash.
**[24:22] Ten**
Stop! No spoilers!

Whoa...
**[02:01] Crow**
There he is... The Guess Monster.
**[02:05] Sae**
What do they mean by that?
**[02:06] Sae**
Is Shiratorizawa's #5 a sleazebag
(gesu), or something?
**[02:08] Yach**
I-Is he going to try to hit
them in the eyes, or something?
**[02:11] Yach**
Be careful, Hinata!
**[02:13] Shima**
That'd be cheating...
**[02:16] Gosh**
Leon-san, nice serve!
**[02:23] Sawa**
Sorry!
**[02:25] Tana**
Kageyama, get the last!
**[02:27] Guy**
Stop another one!
**[02:30] Te**
Blocking isn't a technique to stop the ball.
**[02:34] Te**
Tsutomu, go up straight.
**[02:44] Ten**
It's a technique to smack down the ball.
***SIGN*** Be Courageous Warriors
**[02:47] Shir**
All right!
**[02:51] Shim**
When you're able to get a clean block,
**[02:54] ---**
it truly is a technique that makes
you feel like the tables have turned.
**[02:59] Ten**
I'm starting to get into it!
**[03:02] Yama**
Get the next one!
**[03:05] Hina**
Don't mind, Kageyama-kun!
**[03:06] Hina**
Don't, don't mind! Kageyama—
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[03:18] Kage**
Nice receive!
**[03:22] Ten**
So naïve...
**[03:35] Shira**
All right!
**[03:42] Ten**
I'm...
**[03:44] Ten**
120% today!
**[03:47] Sae**
How is he able to react like that?
**[03:50] Shim**
It's not just how he reacts.
**[03:52] Shim**
In that moment, there
were three possibilities.
***SIGN*** Net
**[03:57] Shim**
First, Kageyama's currently
on the front line,
**[04:00] ---**
so it was possible for him to do a dump.
**[04:02] Shim**
So was he going to dump, or not?
**[04:04] Shim**
If he wasn't going to dump, he has
Tanaka and Hinata on the front line,
**[04:07] Shim**
and Azumane and Sawamura on the
back line who he can set to.
**[04:11] Shim**
And in this case, it went to Hinata,
**[04:14] Shim**
but there were also various
courses Hinata could have used.
**[04:18] Shim**
You can see quite a bit when you're up here,
**[04:22] Shim**
but when you're on the court,
you can get frazzled.
**[04:25] Shim**
So even if you know which way you want
to go, your body may not move right.
**[04:28] Shim**
But...
**[04:30] Shim**
He's able to move.
**[04:36] Taki**
I guess it's no surprise
that they took a time out.
**[04:39] Gosh**
I totally thought that they were
going to do a back attack just now.
**[04:43] Gosh**
I mean, he totally gave
that other guy a look.
**[04:45] Ten**
That was a complete fake.
**[04:47] Gsh**
Huh?
**[04:48] Ten**
Karasuno's setter's pretty good, right?
**[04:51] Ten**
But that glance was way too
obvious and over the top.
**[04:55] Shir**
Glances, footwork, and handling...
**[04:59] Shir**
If Tendo-san figures any of those
things out, you're finished.
**[05:00] Coach**
Nice block, Satori.
**[05:02] Ten**
Yup.
**[05:03] Ten**
Sorry that I'm getting more
attention than you, Wakatoshi-kun.
**[05:07] Ushi**
That's not a problem.
***SIGN*** Certain Victory
**[05:09] Sawa**
We're going to cut them off on the next one!
**[05:11] Tana**
Hinata, we're going to switch
things up! Get this next one!
**[05:13] Hina**
Right!
**[05:16] Tana**
Hey, Kageyama, what's wrong with your face?
**[05:18] Kage**
Nothing's wrong.
**[05:20] Tana**
You liar!
**[05:21] Kage**
*It's one thing when my spike gets blocked,*
**[05:23] ---**
*but it pisses me off a million times more*
**[05:26] Kage**
*when a spike from my set-up gets blocked...*
**[05:29] Take**
How is their #5
**[05:31] Take**
able to continue blocking like that?
**[05:34] Kei**
Sensei, you remember read blocking, right?
**[05:37] Take**
You see where the toss is going
before jumping up to block, right?
**[05:41] Kei**
Yeah. "Read" in this case doesn't
necessarily mean to read,
**[05:44] ---**
but more to understand.
**[05:46] Kei**
Since you're jumping up
after watching the ball,
**[05:48] Kei**
there's no danger in the toss tricking you.
**[05:50] Kei**
Their reaction will be slightly slower,
**[05:52] ---**
but if you can cover by using three blockers,
**[05:55] Kei**
it's the most effective.
**[05:57] Kei**
We're still in the middle of
practicing this ourselves.
**[06:01] Kei**
On the other hand, what's
special about their #5's blocks
**[06:05] Kei**
are his reading and intuition.
He does guess blocking.
**[06:09] Kei**
"Guess" means to presume something,
**[06:11] Kei**
and he'll read the attack
before the toss goes up,
**[06:14] Kei**
and then he'll jump pretty much on intuition.
**[06:15] Hina**
Guess?!
**[06:17] Kei**
Of course, there will be times
where his intuition is off,
**[06:19] Kei**
and he might get in the way of
his team's blocks and receives.
**[06:24] Kei**
This is definitely a style of blocking
that doesn't work for everyone.
**[06:27] Kei**
But I think that #5 is so accurate
with his guesses that it's scary.
**[06:31] Kei**
On top of that, he has a body
that can react to those guesses.
**[06:35] Kei**
It's better to think that his movements
have no regularity to them.
**[06:39] Kei**
Don't think too hard and get fooled by them.
**[06:42] All**
Right!
**[06:43] Yama**
What do we need to do in order
for him not to read our tosses?
**[06:47] Yama**
Does that mean Kageyama's going to have
to do the crazy feints that Hinata does, too?
**[06:51] Tsuk**
That actually sounds pretty
amusing, so why not?
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[06:55] Ten**
One more, nice serve!
**[07:01] Swa**
Front!
**[07:03] Sawa**
Sorry, it's short!
**[07:05] Shira**
* It doesn't matter what kind of feints*
* you try to use against Tendo-san...*
**[07:12] Ten**
*So this must be what it means*
**[07:14] ---**
*to have perfect coordination...*
**[07:21] Ten**
*Just barely missed me...*
**[07:23] All**
Yeah!
**[07:30] Shira**
*I had no idea where the toss was going to go*
**[07:33] ---**
*until he got the spike in.*
**[07:36] Ten**
So you aimed that
**[07:37] ---**
to go right over my head
after what I just did.
**[07:42] Ten**
You must really hate losing.
**[07:49] En**
You guys really are amusing.

All right! We caught up with them!
**[08:29] Enn**
Hinata, nice kill!
**[08:31] Yama**
Way to go, Hinata!
**[08:36] Ten**
There have been setters who I admired for trying
so hard to stop me from reading them...
**[08:42] Ten**
But that #10's timing sure is fast.
**[08:46] Ten**
If I'm even one tempo late, I can't reach it.
**[08:49] Leo**
Were you just expecting us to forget
your "I've made a mistake!" earlier?
**[08:54] Ten**
Ayup, gesu...
**[08:55] Ushi**
You're talking strangely, Tendo.
**[08:58] Tana**
Kageyama, one more! Nice serve!
**[09:05] Shir**
Nice receive!
**[09:10] Taki**
Nice receive!
**[09:11] Shim**
This is their chance to attack!
**[09:19] Tn**
One touch!
**[09:23] Yama**
Got it!
***SIGN*** Be Courageous Warriors
**[09:31] Kage**
*Did he just put in a fake?*
**[09:34] Kag**
*Or did he just change his mind?*
**[09:38] Aki**
It really seems that conventional logic
**[09:41] ---**
doesn't work on Shiratorizawa.
**[09:46] Take**
Just what is with #5's blocking?
**[09:50] Kei**
He's planning on stopping
all of them on his own.
**[09:53] Take**
Huh?
**[09:53] Kei**
Tendo's blocks are basically
blocks used to score points.
**[09:58] Kei**
He uses his opponent's spikes against them,
**[10:00] ---**
and makes them his own points.
**[10:02] Kei**
But blocking isn't limited
to being done on your own.
**[10:07] Kei**
The blocking that we're trying to do right now,
**[10:09] Kei**
blocking in order to connect...
**[10:11] Kei**
If we can make it work, it'll lead to points.
**[10:14] Kei**
In any case, depending on the timing,
**[10:18] Kei**
blocks can actually be
more valuable than spikes.
**[10:21] Take**
I see...
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[10:26] Gosh**
Nice receive!
**[10:27] Shima**
Don't let them get ahead!
**[10:27] Shir**

**[10:28] Taki**
If they get their opportunity,
they're not going to stop!
**[10:38] Crowd**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
**[10:42] Guy**
That was like a blow to
shut up the commoners.
**[10:43] Crowd**
Ushijima! Ushijima! Ushijima!
**[10:45] Guy**
Ushiwaka's definitely on another level.
**[10:49] Take**
In order to stop attacks, blocks evolve.
**[10:53] Take**
And in order to break through
blocks, attacks also evolve.
**[10:58] Take**
Attacks become diverse by using back attacks,
**[11:01] Take**
attacks that get faster, and combinations.
**[11:04] Take**
And then by changing how one jumps
and where they're positioned,
**[11:08] Take**
blocks shut down attacks.
**[11:10] Take**
They think they're at the top,
**[11:12] ---**
but they continue to go higher
and higher and keep developing.
**[11:17] Kei**
Looks like you've learned
a few things, Sensei.
**[11:19] Take**
Those are just words.
**[11:20] Take**
I'm sure they kept developing
through understanding,
**[11:24] All**
All right!
**[11:24] ---**
their fighting spirit,
and unwavering tenacity.
**[11:26] Take**
Miraculous super plays will save the team,
**[11:30] Take**
but the same can be said
about understanding.

at Karasuno pissed me off,
**[12:18] ---**
but you take the cake.
**[12:20] Tsuki**
Thanks.
**[12:21] Ten**
You piss me off!
**[12:25] Tana**
Asahi-san, nice serve!
**[12:39] Crow**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
**[12:43] Take**
*Please continue thinking.*

One touch!

*So annoying...*
**[13:47] Azu**
Chance ball!
**[13:56] Tan**
Yeah!
**[13:57] Coach**
That was you, Tsutomu, you idiot!
**[14:01] Coach**
If you're gonna stare at someone,
at least stare at a girl!
**[14:07] Gosh**
Y-Yes, sir!
**[14:08] Ten**
Pfft... "Yes."
**[14:11] Coach**
I don't care if you run into each other!
Go for the damn ball, ya idjits!

I thought he was pretty quiet today.

Yeah!

Leon, up front!
**[14:34] Kage**
Switch...
**[14:36] Suga**
...and then...
**[14:37] Suga**
A synchronized attack!
**[14:44] Kage**
Yeah!
**[14:45] Suga**
Nice, Kageyama!
**[14:47] Old**
What? What happened just now?
**[14:50] Old**
Did the setter hit that?
**[14:52] Coach**
Those impertinent little...
**[14:54] ---**
I guess things haven't changed,
even with the grandson.
**[14:57] Guy**
That's right. Karasuno's coach
is Ukai-sensei's grandson.
**[15:01] Coch**
Ukai...
**[15:03] Coach**
He always did think that
new things meant strength.
**[15:07] Coach**
I never did like him.
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[15:11] (Flashback) Gramps**
Always relying on the left cannon...
**[15:13] (Flashback) ---**
How archaic.
**[15:14] (Flashback) Coach**
Your team is ridiculous and everyone attacks,
**[15:17] (Flashback) ---**
so no one's left to follow up!
**[15:20] Coach**
There're only a certain
number of things you can do
**[15:24] ---**
with these high school teams
that change every year.
**[15:26] Coach**
Polishing diamonds in the best way possible...
**[15:32] Shira**
All right!
**[15:33] Coch**
...is the best possible option.
**[15:36] Kei**
Washijo-sensei never changes.
**[15:40] Bg**
Ohira! Ohira
**[15:40] Kei**
"Simple is best."
**[15:42] ---**
He loves height and power,
**[15:44] Kei**
and is always on the lookout
to gather powerful players.
**[15:49] Ten**
Leon-kun, nice serve.
**[15:50] Kei**
Even if they weren't accepted
by the team originally,
**[15:53] Kei**
if they fit Washijo-sensei's definition of "powerful,"
**[15:55] ---**
there won't be a problem.
**[15:57] Kei**
And then he puts them through hardcore
training to keep them strong.
**[16:02] Take**
But you can't call all of them
star players, can you?
**[16:06] Kei**
Of course not.
**[16:08] Kei**
Though I'm sure that him getting
someone like Ushijima was a jackpot.
**[16:13] Kei**
Using a powerful player like
Ushijima as the main attacker,
**[16:14] Some**
Ushijima-san!
**[16:17] Kei**
and making sure that no one gets in his way
**[16:22] Kei**
probably sums up Shiratorizawa's style.
**[16:22] Shira**
All right!
**[16:27] Taki**
Ushiwaka really doesn't stop.
**[16:30] Shim**
But there are still ways
to turn things around.
**[16:37] Yama**
Nice receive!
**[16:41] Shir**
All right!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[16:42] Yama**

**[16:54] All**
All right!
**[16:57] Sae**
Nice, Shoyo!
**[17:00] Yach**
My heart hurts from all this excitement.
**[17:02] Taki**
Mine does, too.

*I could never say something that confident...*
**[17:22] Yama**
* But I've gotten to the point*

**[17:25] Tsuk**

*My chance...*
**[17:41] Gosh**

**[18:05] Coach**
This is
**[18:07] Coach**
what it means to be strong.
**[18:13] Ten**
Keep on breaking them!
**[18:16] ---**
What, you say? Their hearts!
**[18:20] Ten**
Keep on shattering them!
**[18:23] ---**
What, you say?
**[18:27] Guy**
Those blocks?
**[18:28] Ten**
Nah, their spirits!
**[18:32] Guy**
*I can never read this guy.*
**[18:38] Ten**
He sure is persistent...
**[18:40] Ten**
That brat with the glasses.
**[18:44] Kei**
Sensei.
**[18:45] Take**
Right.
**[18:48] Guy**
Apparently, even that serve
isn't enough to stop them.
**[18:52] Guy**
Yeah.
**[18:53] Old**
When they're able to stop ‘em, they can,
**[18:54] ---**
and when they can't stop
‘em, they can't! Got it?!
**[18:58] Kei**
It's true that completely shutting them down,
**[19:00] ---**
or breaking through a
three-person block looks cool,
**[19:03] Kei**
and excites the crowd,
**[19:05] Kei**
but don't try to finish things.
**[19:08] Kei**
I'm sure that the rougher things get,
**[19:10] ---**
the more you want to finish
things in one shot.
**[19:13] Kei**
But don't forget to imagine your next plays,
**[19:15] ---**
like one touches and rebounds.
**[19:18] Kei**
All plays are connected.
**[19:21] Kage**
This doesn't mean you're
supposed to put up your guard.
**[19:23] Hina**
I know that!
**[19:26] Kei**
I know I keep saying this,
**[19:27] Kei**
but even if plays don't lead to points,
they start showing results later.
**[19:32] Kei**
We're finally doing a five-set match.
**[19:34] Kei**
It'd be a waste to spend
the whole time dreading
**[19:37] ---**
how long you've still got.
**[19:45] Tana**
Right! Let's do this!
**[19:46] Hina**
Yeah!
**[19:47] Tsuki**
Um...
**[19:51] Tsuki**

**[19:55] Tsui**

It was only possible because
you all narrowed the gap.
**[02:06] Azu**
Great job on the block timing!
**[02:08] Tsuk**
Oh, right.
**[02:11] Sae**
I see!
**[02:13] Sae**
So that block really wasn't
done to stop Ushiwaka,
**[02:16] ---**
but to guide where the ball was going to go.
**[02:19] Sae**
Nice combo play!
**[02:21] Yach**
That was sort of like mobbing.
**[02:24] Sae**
Mobbing?
**[02:26] Yach**
Um... Mobbing is where smaller
birds will attack larger,
**[02:31] ---**
predatory birds in groups
to try to chase them away.
**[02:37] Taki**
You know some pretty cool words, Yacchan.
**[02:42] Take**
Using a connecting block as a starting point,
**[02:44] ---**
they were able to connect everything
naturally in that volley.
**[02:47] Take**
They were finally able to give it shape.
**[02:50] Kei**
Yeah.
**[02:51] Hina**
Total defense! So cool!
**[02:55] Suga**
Even if we can't stop him by blocking,
**[02:57] Suga**
we'll be able to fight Ushiwaka with this.
**[03:05] Guy**
They were finally able to lift up
one of Ushiwaka's spikes.
**[03:08] Guy**
Things are getting interesting.
**[03:10] Yoko**
Damn it. They wasted two sets.
**[03:14] Guy**
Is that old guy a tsundere?
**[03:16] Guy**
That was uncalled for.

**[03:42] Yama**
hurry up and turn things back around!

It wasn't Ushiwaka this time?

I'm sure they'd worry about his
stamina if it was every time.
**[03:59] Tsu**

**[04:06] Tsu**

**[04:21] Taki**
This puts Ushiwaka on the back line...
**[04:24] Aki**
But...
**[04:25] Aki**
that means he gets to serve.

**[05:39] Yach**
Is something wrong?
**[05:40] Aki**
I was just thinking that Kei
was acting a little weird.
**[05:45] Aki**
I might just be imagining it.

**[05:51] Aki**
* Does Kei actually have friends*

And now, it's a deuce.
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[06:22] Hina**
All right!
**[06:24] Suga**
We're counting on you, Hinata!
**[06:26] Suga**
Make sure you get them back
for all the times you got hit!
**[06:33] Tsuk**
Hey.
**[06:35] Sae**
Now Suga-chan can't come in
anymore this time, right?
**[06:39] Shim**
Yeah.
**[06:40] Shim**
There's a rule where the same player can't
be switched twice within the same set.
**[06:44] Taki**
But we got through Ushiwaka's serve.
**[06:47] Taki**
Now we amp up our attack power
with Hinata on the front line.
**[06:51] Taki**
Karasuno definitely has the upper hand.
**[06:53] Sawa**
Tsukishima, nice serve!
**[07:02] Hina**
One touch!
**[07:05] Tsu**
*Hey.*
**[07:07] (Flashback) Tsu**
If my serve is cleanly received,
**[07:10] (Flashback) Tsu**
there's a good chance of them doing a quick.
**[07:14] (Flashback) Tsu**
Try jumping as high as
you can against their #5.
**[07:17] Tsu**
Chance ball!
**[07:19] Hina**
Bring it!
**[07:21] Tana**
Give it to me!
**[07:26] Kara**

**[07:41] Tsu**
Yeah, great job, King.
**[07:45] Hina**

***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[07:50] Sae**
All right! They got it back!
**[07:53] Shim**
Now it's set point!
**[07:55] Yachi**
Karasuno, fight!
**[08:02] Take**
I'm sure this is extremely obvious,
**[08:05] Take**
but it truly is hard to score
**[08:07] ---**
more than one point in a row.
**[08:09] Kei**
Well, this game was designed
**[08:10] ---**
so that each side has equal
chances to attack.
**[08:13] Kei**
Not to mention, when we get
into the last part of the set,
**[08:16] Kei**
each side gets that much more eager to win.
**[08:19] Kei**
But...
**[08:20] Kei**
Each side has to start scraping away
**[08:22] ---**
at their opponent's sharpened defense.
**[08:25] Kei**
Even with pure height and power,
**[08:27] Kei**
their persistence,
their ability to connect,
**[08:29] Kei**
and, to some extent, the calmness and
stamina to maintain teamwork...
**[08:35] Kei**
In order to win, they need the
tremendous amount of energy
**[08:37] Kei**
required to score two points in a row.
**[08:45] Aki**
* They're still serving strong*
* like it's natural for them.*
**[08:49] Aki**
*That's to be expected from them.*
**[08:50] Azu**
Sorry, it's long!
**[08:51] Swa**
Kageyama, push it over!

**[09:28] Hina**

**[09:32] Shir**
*Did he set to their #5 because he knew*
**[09:35] ---**
*our eyes would be on their #10?*
**[09:37] Tana**
Nice toss, Kageyama!
**[09:39] Kage**
Actually, it was a little
early... I'm sorry.
**[09:42] Tana**
You sure are hard on yourself.
**[09:44] Tsuk**
It really does piss people off when Hinata is
**[09:47] ---**
scuttling around in front of you.

Karasuno High School vs Shiratorizawa Academy
**[10:22] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[10:25] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[10:29] Sai**
It's true that they're different
from anyone we've faced so far.
**[10:32] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[10:32] Sai**
But there's no reason for us to panic.
**[10:35] Sai**
We just have to score
points like we usually do.
**[10:36] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[10:39] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[10:39] Sai**
Anyway, make sure to break their streak!
**[10:41] All**
Right!
**[10:43] Crowd**
Shiratorizawa!
**[10:45] Guy**
Man... When I saw the first set,
**[10:47] ---**
I thought it'd be an easy win
for Shiratorizawa, but...
**[10:50] Guy**
I guess they're what you call a dark horse?
**[10:52] Guy**
But Karasuno's a former
powerhouse school, too.
**[10:55] Guy**
Well, yeah. They've got
Nishinoya from Chidoriyama,
**[10:58] Guy**
Kageyama from Kita-Ichi,
and Azumane from Seikodai.
**[11:01] Guy**
They've got quite the lineup.
**[11:04] Kei**
* Even if it gets rough,*
* or you start panicking,*
**[11:07] ---**
*don't let your guard down!*
**[11:10] Shira**
All right!
**[11:13] Yach**
They can't seem to get
those last two points...
**[11:15] Aki**
I'm pretty sure both sides are thinking that.
**[11:19] Aki**
*However, if Karasuno loses this set,*
**[11:22] ---**
*they're gonna be done.*
**[11:24] Aki**
*We're counting on you...*
**[11:26] Ten**
We're counting on you, Eita-kun.
**[11:29] Smi**
Right!
**[11:31] Shir**
Semi-san!
**[11:32] Shir**
Semi! Get a nice serve in!
**[11:35] Take**
So Shiratorizawa is using their pinch server.
**[11:38] Leon**
Nice serve, Eita!
**[11:47] Azu**
Sorry!
**[11:48] Tana**
Daichi-san!
**[11:51] Semi**
Above you, Shirabu!
**[11:52] Shir**
Right!
**[11:55] Shir**
Semi-san!
**[11:57] Semi**
Come on, Tsutomu!
**[11:58] Gosh**
Right!
**[12:03] Shira**
All right!
**[12:06] Ten**
Break!
**[12:06] Ten**
Yeah!
**[12:08] Crowd**
Nice kill, Goshiki!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[12:12] Azu**
Come to think of it, I guess he was a setter.
**[12:16] Sawa**
Concentrate!
**[12:18] Both**
Right!
**[12:20] Leon**
Nice serve!
**[12:23] Azu**
Daichi!
**[12:25] Sawa**
Damn it! It's short!
**[12:27] Shir**
*All right. It's off.*
**[12:32] Shir**
Huh?!
**[12:33] Kara**
All right!
**[12:36] Ten**
A quick there?! You guys
are seriously messed up!
**[12:40] Yach**
Hinata, nice kill!
**[12:42] Aki**
Looks like logic doesn't
work on this side either.
**[12:49] Semi**
Who does Karasuno's setter think he is?
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[12:53] Suga**
Tanaka, nice serve!
**[12:58] Yama**
Got it!
**[12:58] Suga**
*Come on, break... Break through!*
**[12:59] Goshi**
Left!
**[13:07] Guy**
All right!
**[13:08] Leoon**
Wakatoshi!
**[13:10] Yama**
Three blockers!
**[13:14] Guy**
Damn! It looks like that libero's
getting the hang of it.
**[13:18] Guy**
But Ushiwaka's still only using
about 70% of his strength.
**[13:21] Guy**
Would you be able to get those?
**[13:23] Guy**
Not a chance.
**[13:30] Azu**
Damn it!
**[13:30] Shir**
All right!
**[13:30] Tana**
Sorry! It was close to the net!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[13:36] Suga**
We're not done yet... We've only just begun!
**[13:39] Gosh**
Shirabu-san, nice serve!
**[13:41] Nish**
Got it!
**[13:43] Kge**
Nice receive!
**[13:44] Sawa**
Right!
**[13:49] Kara**
All right!
**[13:49] Yama**
Shit!
**[13:50] Sug**
Nice, Daichi!
**[13:50] Sug**
Yes!
**[13:56] Tsuk**
*There's no way that I can beat Ushiwaka.*
**[14:02] (Flashback) Tsuk**
Our bodies are different.
Our experience is different.
**[14:05] (Flashback) Tsuk**
The time we've given volleyball is different.
**[14:09] (Flashback) Tsuk**
There's no way that I can beat him.
**[14:16] (Flashback) Tsuk**
But...
**[14:24] Shim**
I was hoping they could break through
**[14:26] ---**
while they still had Hinata as a decoy.
**[14:28] Taki**
Hinata looks so anxious
on the back line.
**[14:32] Taki**
He sucks at both serving and digs...
**[14:41] Tana**
Hinata, nice serve!
**[14:43] Hina**
Right!
**[14:44] Tsuk**
*If their #5's guess blocking*
**[14:47] ---**
*is either 120 points or 0 points,*
**[14:50] Tsuk**
* I'd say read blocking stays at*
* about an average of 75 points.*
**[14:58] Tsuk**
*Well, our blocks definitely need more work,*
**[15:01] Tsuk**
*but maybe it looks cooler to bystanders*
**[15:02] Sawa**
Nice serve!
**[15:05] ---**
*when people go for the 120 points.*
**[15:09] Tsuk**
* We can't let the opponent setter*
* feel the pleasure or accomplishment*
**[15:14] Tsuk**
*of overcoming our blocks.*
**[15:16] Yama**
Got it!
**[15:17] Tsuk**
*Persistently, begrudgingly,*
**[15:18] Shira**
Nice receive!
**[15:20] ---**
*yet nimbly, and absolutely...*
**[15:26] Tsuk**
*They won't get through easily.*
**[15:30] Tsuk**
* Continue pressuring them*
* and piling on stress.*
**[15:35] Tsuk**
One touch!
**[15:41] Kei**
Connect!
**[15:46] Sawa**
Hit! Hit!
**[15:50] Leon**
Nice, Taichi!
**[15:51] Azu**
Got it!
**[15:53] Kage**
*You suck at serving, you suck at receiving,*
**[15:56] Kage**
* and your setting and*
* blocking are below average.*
**[15:59] Kage**
*Then what are you doing on the court?*
**[16:03] Kage**
*You score points!*
**[16:10] Kara**
All right!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[16:11] Yama**
Break!
**[16:13] Suga**
*A back attack with minus tempo.*
**[16:13] Yama**
Great job, Hinata!
**[16:15] Suga**
* He's gotten even faster after*
* that time Oikawa stopped him.*
**[16:18] Ten**
Taichi! Don't just stand there!
**[16:21] Kawa**
*Nah, that one was impossible.*
**[16:24] Azu**
Nice one touch!
**[16:24] Sawa**
Hinata, one more! Nice serve!
**[16:26] Tsuk**
If it weren't for Hinata's cover,
**[16:28] ---**
it would have just been blown away.
**[16:30] Azu**
But if we didn't have that one touch,
**[16:32] ---**
we might have been done right then.
**[16:38] Ushi**
Shirabu.
**[16:41] Ushi**
Gather them to me.
**[16:47] Hina**
Crap!
**[16:49] Gosh**
* Out? But if I judge wrong*
* here, I'm going to be killed!*
**[16:55] Hina**
It went in!
**[16:55] Kage**
*It's off.*
**[16:57] Gosh**
I'm sorry!
**[16:58] Yama**
Wakatoshi!
**[16:59] Sawa**
*We've got three.*
**[17:00] Tsuk**
Ready, and...
**[17:07] Shir**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
**[17:11] Shir**
Ushijima!
**[17:13] Shir**
Ushijima!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[17:19] Take**
That was intense...
**[17:21] Take**
It was like he changed the flow of
the game with a single strike.
**[17:25] Sawa**
Don't fall behind! We're
going to keep going forward!
**[17:28] Kara**
Right!
**[17:37] Sawa**
*That was intense.*
**[17:43] Tana**
All right!
**[17:45] All**
*Synchronized attack!*
**[17:51] Sawa**
* We're definitely not losing*
* when it comes to scoring points.*
**[17:54] Sawa**
Yeah!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[18:02] Tana**
Daichi-san, nice serve!
**[18:08] Shir**
Ushijima-san!
**[18:10] Tsuk**
Ready, and...
**[18:16] Shir**
So persistent!
**[18:18] Azu**
Return it! Return it!
**[18:20] Tana**
Nice, Daichi-san!
**[18:22] Yama**
Chance ball!
**[18:30] Shir**
*Open the way...*
**[18:33] Shir**
*for our spiker!*
**[18:38] Tsuk**
*I was waiting*
**[18:40] Tsuk**
*for this fraying caused*
**[18:44] Tsuk**
*by slight annoyance and panic.*
**[19:19] Tsuk**
*There's no way that I can beat Ushiwaka.*
**[19:23] (Flashback) Tsuk**
But...
**[19:27] (Flashback) Tsuk**
I'm planning on stopping at
least a few of his spikes.
**[19:30] Crow**
He stopped Ushiwaka?!
**[19:32] Crowd**
Who is that guy?
**[19:33] Crowd**
No idea!
**[19:34] Crowd**
Amazing!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[19:35] Crowd**
They took back the second set!
**[19:42] Tsuk**
*It was just one block.*
**[19:44] Tsuk**
*It was just one point out of 25.*
**[19:48] Tsuk**
*This is just a club.*
**[19:52] (Flashback) Boku**
But once that moment arrives for you,
**[19:56] Boku**
* that's the moment you'll*
* be hooked on volleyball.*
**[19:59] Tsuk**
All right!
**[20:12] Both**
Tsukishima!
**[20:15] Tsuk**
Ow!
**[20:16] Kage**
*Ushiwaka's spike just now...*
**[20:17] Tana**
Tsukishima, are you seriously Tsukishima?
Did you seriously just seriously?
**[20:19] Kage**
* There wasn't a moment to spare*
* in his run or his jump.*
**[20:21] Kage**
* But the toss was probably a bit*
* close to the net and low...*
**[20:27] Kage**
*Tsukishima didn't let that escape him.*
**[20:30] Kage**
*Or...*
**[20:32] Kage**
*Was he waiting for that?*
**[20:35] Suga**
Sorry for saying something
like we could still fight,
**[20:37] ---**
even if we can't stop him with our blocks.
**[20:39] Yama**
Huh?
**[20:40] Suga**
You were making a weird
face back then, Yamaguchi.
**[20:44] Yama**
Huh?!
**[20:45] Yama**
No, I was also thinking that Tsukki
was definitely doing his part.
**[20:50] Yama**
Despite how he looks,
Tsukki hates losing,
**[20:54] Yama**
so I figured he would probably do something.
**[20:57] Sawa**
Tsukishima, nice block!
**[20:59] Azu**
Great job stopping that!
**[21:01] Tsuk**
I'm sure there were other blockers
before that were at my level,
**[21:05] Tsuk**
but I think that Nishinoya-san's receives
**[21:08] Tsuk**
and that weirdo duo's attack
that completely ignores their blocks
**[21:11] Tsuk**
added pressure to their setter.
**[21:16] Azu**
You were thinking about all that?
**[21:18] Swa**
Scary... Tsukishima, you're scary.
**[21:22] Ak**
I think that Kei might have been
waiting this whole time for the timing
**[21:25] ---**
of Shiratorizawa's tosses to skew.
**[21:29] Sae**
I can't believe he thought that far ahead.
**[21:32] Yachi**
Tsukishima-kun is smart,
**[21:35] Yachi**
so I believe that he's always
**[21:37] ---**
thinking about volleyball,
as well as other things...
**[21:40] Aki**
I'm sure he's pretty obstinate.
Sorry about that.
**[21:43] Yah**
Oh, no...
**[21:45] Yach**
It's just that at that moment,
**[21:48] ---**
I think the only thing on Tsukishima-kun's
mind was stopping that block.
**[21:53] Yachi**
Just purely...
**[21:56] Yachi**
Like he was solving a
difficult test question.
**[22:01] Aki**
Yeah.
**[22:03] Hina**
Tsukishima!
**[22:07] Hina**
That one point was worth 100 points!
***SIGN*** If you're a
middle blocker,
***SIGN*** you try it, too
**[22:14] Tsuk**
Thanks.
**[22:19] Hina**
What?!
**[22:21] Tana**
Calm down, Hinata!
**[22:22] Tana**
I'm sure he meant it as,
"If you're a middle blocker, you try it, too,"
**[22:25] ---**
but calm down!
**[22:27] Tsuk**
Please stop making such a fuss.
**[22:32] Tsuk**
That was just a point.
**[22:34] Tsuk**
The game's just getting started.
**[22:38] All**
Yeah!
**[24:12] Sae**
Tsukki finally stopped Ushiwaka!
**[24:14] Bro**
Kei usually doesn't show
his emotions and is blunt,
**[24:17] Bro**
but he actually works really hard,
is kind, and is a really good boy.
**[24:21] Sae**
Who are you, his mother?!

**[07:04] Kei**
All right, have a seat. Rest while you can.
**[07:07] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[07:08] Kei**
I'm sure you're finally getting
used to both the finals
**[07:10] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[07:11] ---**
and Shiratorizawa's cannon.
**[07:14] Kei**
What you're doing is technically not wrong.
**[07:14] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[07:17] Kei**
Don't get confused.
**[07:17] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[07:19] Kei**
I know you're probably tired, but always
remember to keep your blocks together.
**[07:23] Kei**
With scattered blocks, you won't
just be unable stop the spike,
**[07:26] Kei**
but you'll get in the
way of the receiver, too.
**[07:29] Kei**
With both offense and defense,
**[07:30] Kei**
using your numbers to create an
advantage will lead to victory.
**[07:33] Kei**
Don't forget that.
**[07:34] Kara**
Right!

Tsutomu, nice serve!
**[07:45] Gosh**
*I'm on a roll right now.*
**[07:48] Gosh**
*I'm gonna do this in one shot!*
**[07:53] Tana**
Out!

Home run!
**[07:58] Tana**
Lucky! Lucky!
**[08:05] Yama**
Leon!
**[08:07] Gosh**
Nice receive!
**[08:10] Tsuk**
*This is clearly Ushiwaka's winning pattern.*
**[08:13] Tsuk**
* He's going to smash it from above,*
* we're going to get blown away,*
**[08:16] Tsuk**
*or if we're lucky, we'll get a one touch.*
**[08:18] Tsuk**
*Or...*
**[08:19] (Flashback) Tsuk**
If Ushiwaka comes in fast
from the right and attacks,
**[08:23] (Flashback) Tsuk**
if you and I both block,
**[08:26] (Flashback) Tsuk**
let's tighten up the cross side
**[08:29] Tsuk**
*a little more.*
**[08:32] Tsuk**
* We won't be able to narrow the*
* course as much as a three-person block,*
**[08:36] Tsuk**
*but while we're tightening the cross...*
**[08:41] Tsuk**
*the guardian field of view becomes clearer.*
**[08:50] Tsuk**
*The only one equal to Ushiwaka...*
**[08:54] Nish**
*...is me.*
**[08:56] Nish**
*I can't let us keep losing!*
**[08:56] Nish**
All right!
**[09:00] Tsuk**
Nice receive!
**[09:05] Both**
All right!
**[09:07] Both**
Yeah!
**[09:10] Wash**
Tsutomu!
**[09:11] Wash**
If you keep standing in half-assed places,
**[09:13] Wash**
you won't be able to dig or
follow up with a one touch!
**[09:15] Gosh**
Yes, sir!
**[09:17] Goshh**
* Coach is quieter than usual, but*
* he's not holding back on me at all.*
**[09:22] Leon**
Why do you think you get yelled at the most?
**[09:25] Gosh**
Because I lack discipline!
**[09:26] Leon**
Because he's counting on you the most.
**[09:29] Gosh**
Huh?
**[09:35] Gosh**
All right, bring it!
**[09:39] Yama**
He's way too simple-minded!
**[09:41] Leon**
But what I said is true.
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[09:47] Team**
All right!
**[09:49] Ten**
You're too slow.
**[09:51] Ten**
Blocking is all about reading
and your sense of smell.
**[09:55] Tsuk**
Blocking is systematic.
**[10:03] Sawa**
Hinata!
**[10:06] Shir**
Goshiki!
**[10:08] Kage**
* It's the guy who does the*
* super-sharp straights,*
**[10:09] Kage**
*so we'll tighten up for a straight!*
**[10:11] Kei**
*Yes! Hinata's fast!*
**[10:17] Kage**
*He hit the outside?!*
**[10:20] Shir**
All right!
**[10:21] Taki**
He went through there?!
**[10:22] Ten**
That was totally luck, wasn't it?
**[10:25] Gosh**
Luck? No way...
**[10:28] Gosh**
You're only an ace if you're
able to create miracles.
**[10:32] Ten**
Stop trying to make it sound cool!
**[10:34] Sawa**
All right. That shot was amazing.
**[10:37] ---**
It was amazing, but...
**[10:39] Sawa**
That just means we have to use
another method to get a point.
**[10:42] All**
Yeah!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[10:44] Shir**

*Use your numbers to your advantage!*
**[10:54] Suga**
*Go! Synchronized attack!*
**[10:56] Kawa**
*Oh, here it comes.*
**[10:59] ---**
*That annoying attack.*
**[11:00] Kawa**
*But...*
**[11:14] Yach**
The synchronized attack was...
**[11:17] ---**
stopped.

***SIGN*** Be Courageous Warriors
**[11:38] All**
Kawanishi!
**[11:40] All**
Kawanishi!
**[11:43] Taki**
That #12 confirmed
**[11:45] ---**
that Sawamura's stance
didn't completely go back,
**[11:49] Taki**
and instantaneously threw out the
possibility of an attack on the right.
**[11:54] Shim**
It wasn't certain that they
wouldn't attack on the right,
**[11:58] Shim**
but the chances of them forcefully
going toward the right were low.
**[12:01] Old**
If only you'd thought about
all that in the past.
**[12:09] All**
Hello!
**[12:12] Old**
You guys always seemed to go for the
ball without giving it any thought.
**[12:17] Taki**
W-We were doing what we could!
**[12:21] Taki**
With single plays like doing strong
spikes or getting serves through!
**[12:21] Sae**
It's their old, super scary coach.
**[12:23] Sae**
That's Ukai-kun's grandpa.
**[12:27] Old**
There we go.
**[12:30] Old**
Looks like Washijo-sensei's got
a pretty good lineup, as usual.
**[12:34] Wash**
Karasuno...
**[12:36] Wash**
If all of them didn't come in for the attack,
**[12:39] Wash**
one of them might have been
able to follow up with a block.
**[12:42] Coac**
Right.
**[12:45] Wash**
* The strategies of our two teams*
* are completely different,*
**[12:50] Wash**
* but we both are alike in that we*
* like to score points by force.*
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[12:56] All**
All right!
**[12:59] Wash**
This is a battle between concepts.
**[13:04] Wash**
It's always been like that with Ukai.
**[13:07] Wash**
This is the perfect opportunity
**[13:08] Wash**
to see which of our groups
of high school students
**[13:11] Wash**
is currently stronger.
**[13:13] Tana**
Daichi-san, nice serve!
**[13:18] Kei**
* If Ushiwaka is not participating*
* in the serve and receives,*
**[13:21] Kei**
* we just have to restrict*
* everything to the left.*
**[13:24] Yama**
Leon!
**[13:26] Shir**
Nice receive!
**[13:26] Kei**
*And then have Ushiwaka*
**[13:29] Kei**
*hit as much as possible!*
**[13:31] Tsuk**
We're going to stop him!
**[13:36] Yachi**
I've seen Tsukishima-kun
look annoyed before,
**[13:39] Yachi**
but seeing him look
frustrated is pretty new.
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[13:43] Kara**
All right!
**[13:52] Kei**
Yes! It's off!
**[13:55] Tsuk**
Here we go.
**[13:56] Tuki**
Ready, and...
**[14:06] Kei**
* If the perfect toss goes up to Ushiwaka,*
* and he completely plows one through,*
**[14:10] Kei**
*there's nothing that we can do.*
**[14:12] (Flashback) Kei**
We'll just have to do whatever
we can to stop the rest.
**[14:15] (Flashback) Kei**
We'll have the center back's
defense go one step back,
**[14:18] (Flashback) Kei**
if we're able to stick two
or more blockers on Ushiwaka.
**[14:22] (Flashback) Hina**
The thing that Kinoshita-san
did in the Wakunan match!
**[14:25] (Flashback) Kei**
That's it!
**[14:26] (Flashback) Kei**
Because our blocks with Tsukishima as the
center are holding up more than we thought,
**[14:30] (Flashback) Kei**
we should definitely give this a try.
**[14:33] (Flashback) Kei**
It's merely one step...
**[14:37] ---**
*But it's still a step.*
**[14:41] Kei**
* Don't let it end with Hinata or Tanaka,*
* whose reflexes are fast, picking it up.*
**[14:45] Kei**
*Get one that's not a miracle.*
**[14:48] Azu**
Daichi!
**[14:49] Sawa**
Got it!
**[14:51] Sawa**
Tanaka, get the last!
**[14:53] Leon**
Get back! Get back!
**[14:55] Ten**
Nope!
**[15:00] Tana**
What?!
**[15:02] Crow**
He stopped it!
**[15:07] Ten**
Miracle boy,
**[15:09] Ten**
Sa-to-ri!
**[15:16] Sae**
Damn it!
**[15:17] Shima**
He was seriously able to stop that spike
without knowing where it would go?
**[15:22] Leon**
Good job stopping that.
**[15:24] Ten**
He had no time to look for
a block, standing like that.
**[15:28] Ten**
And spikers frequently end up looking
at the spot they're planning to spike.
**[15:36] Leon**
* So that's how he was able to determine*
* where the ball would go.*
**[15:40] Leon**
* Which means, their #5 was going*
* to hit where he had planned,*
**[15:43] Tana**
I'm sorry!
**[15:45] ---**
*regardless of where he was standing.*
**[15:46] Sawa**
Don't mind!
**[15:47] Tsuk**
That block was pretty amazing.
**[15:50] Tana**
Yes, it was!
**[15:51] Old**
That's just fine,
**[15:54] Old**
if they're able to do those high-level
things without a doubt.
**[15:58] Old**
*But their opponents are called champions*
**[16:01] Old**
* because it's going to take*
* more than that to win.*
**[16:05] Leon**
Wakatoshi, nice serve!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[16:18] Azu**
Sorry!
**[16:19] Suga**
What?
**[16:20] Suga**
Is he Mr. Perfect?
**[16:22] ---**
Is Ushiwaka-kun Mr. Friggin' Perfect?!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[16:25] Leon**
One more!
**[16:32] Tana**
Cover!
**[16:34] Kage**
*I'm not going to let them get*
**[16:36] Kage**
*any more of a lead!*
**[16:39] Tsuk**
*The block's low!*
**[16:41] Kara**
All right!
**[16:45] Hina**
Right!
**[16:47] Tsuk**
Hey.
**[16:49] Tsuk**
If you don't score any points
when you're on the front line,
**[16:52] Tsuk**
nothing's gonna start.
**[16:55] Hina**
Got it!
**[16:57] Suga**
Come to think of it,
**[16:59] ---**
didn't Ushiwaka say something
to Hinata in between the sets?
**[17:03] Yama**
Oh, yes.
**[17:04] (Flashback) Hina**
"A shrimp that sucks like
you has no reason to live."
**[17:08] Yama**
Apparently.
**[17:09] Suga**
Seriously?! Are you sure he
didn't imagine some of that?
**[17:12] Yama**
That's what I thought, too, but
apparently that's what he meant.
**[17:17] Suga**
I wonder what Hinata's going
to do after being told that...
**[17:20] Enn**
Should you be laughing at that?
**[17:23] Suga**
Well, I mean,
**[17:25] Suga**
if his heart was going to break after
being told something like that,
**[17:27] Suga**
he wouldn't be here right now.
**[17:35] Suga**
*A good spot!*
**[17:38] Gosh**
Sorry! It's short!
**[17:42] Shira**
Ohira-san!
**[17:43] (Flashback) Ushi**
You can't fight with height,
**[17:45] (Flashback) Ushi**
so what can you possibly do if your
technique is clumsy, too?
**[17:49] Hina**
*Damn it!*
**[17:51] ---**
*I'm so jealous that he's so tall!*
**[17:53] Hina**
*I'm jealous, but...*
**[17:56] Kei**
*It's a block, but it's almost like...*
**[18:00] Kei**
*He's doing an approaching run for a spike!*
**[18:02] Old**
*The approaching run...*
**[18:04] Old**
*gives you man-made wings.*
***SIGN*** Fly
**[18:15] Guy**
He stopped it!
**[18:19] Hina**
I'm jealous, but...
**[18:22] Hina**
I never said that I wasn't
going to fight with height!
**[18:27] Guy**
Karasuno made a break!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[18:29] Yoko**
Hey, hey, hey!
**[18:31] Yoko**
That little #10 finally did a decent block!
**[18:35] Guy**
Yeah, well... that #10's plays are erratic,
**[18:38] Guy**
so it might have just been luck.
**[18:42] Guy**
* Why are they talking like*
* they know each other?*
**[18:46] Yoko**
But if that wasn't luck,
**[18:48] Yoko**
this match is going to change.
**[18:53] Suga**
Nishinoya.
**[18:55] Sae**
I've fallen for Shoyo again!
**[18:57] ---**
He should just do that every time!
**[18:59] Shima**
No, no, no. An approaching run like that
**[19:02] Shima**
won't be able to handle fast attacks.
**[19:05] Taki**
Not to mention, it'll wear down his stamina.
**[19:08] Taki**
Middle blockers jump
everywhere to begin with,
**[19:12] Taki**
and Hinata's already been
moving around a lot.
**[19:14] Shima**
You were always trying to figure out how
you were going to be lazy.
**[19:19] Taki**
Yup!
**[19:22] Old**
I've got no complaints if you were
actually able to successfully be lazy.
**[19:27] Shira**
Ohira-san!
**[19:28] Hina**
*One more time...*
**[19:33] Both**
*Of course!*
**[19:35] Hina**
I'm so sorry!
**[19:37] Sawa**
Don't mind.
**[19:38] Kage**
Think about how fast you're
going, you dumbass!
**[19:40] Nish**
Shoyo, this is from Ukai-san.
**[19:43] Nish**
The ideal jump is to jump straight up,
**[19:46] Nish**
but for now, he said you
can go to the sides, too.
**[19:49] Nish**
In return...
**[19:50] Both**
We'll support both sides.
**[19:52] Tana**
Yeah.
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[19:57] Hina**
*My timing's slow! Then there's no point!*
**[20:01] Leon**
Hit it directly!
**[20:04] Old**
If you successfully be lazy,
there's no problem.
**[20:07] Old**
But, with Shrimpy...
**[20:12] Old**
his only choice is to jump.
**[20:17] All**
All right!
**[20:19] Tana**
Hinata, nice kill!
**[20:23] Iwa**
Oh. You're here, too.
**[20:27] Iwa**
You said that you weren't going to come
because it'd piss you off, no matter who won.
**[20:31] Oi**
No matter which side wins,
**[20:32] ---**
I'm gonna be able to see the
other team's faces when they lose.
**[20:35] Iwa**
You really are a piece of crap.
**[20:37] Oika**
I don't have time to sit around
feeling sorry for myself.
**[20:40] Iwa**
I see that their #10 sure is
moving around a lot, like always.
**[20:44] Oika**
He's definitely some kind of monster.
**[20:47] Oika**
However, it sure must be rough
**[20:51] ---**
having to stick around that monster.
**[20:57] Sawa**
Sorry!
**[20:57] Azu**
Tanaka!
**[20:58] Tana**
Right!
**[21:02] All**
All right!

Don't you dare get worn out!

Shut up!
**[21:47] Ten**
*He's going to the opposite side from there?*
**[21:49] Ten**
*Damn it.*
**[21:57] Ara**
All right!

Karasuno sure likes to do some risky things.

Tsukishima, you're clicking your
tongue a lot more than usual.
**[24:18] ---**
You sound like a clock.
**[24:19] Kage**
A clock? What does tongue
clicking have to do with clocks?
**[24:21] Tsuk**
Hey, concentrate on the match.

I'm Sawamura Daichi from
Izumitate Junior High!

I played left. After seeing
Karasuno's match at nationals,

I decided I would come to Karasuno!
**[00:36] (Flashback) Sawa**
Thank you for having me!

Oh, I see. That's great.
**[00:42] (Flashback) Tash**
Let's strive to win at nationals!
**[00:44] (Flashback) All**
Right!

Oh, I'm Tashiro.

That teacher was the advisor, right?

Is there someone else that's
more like a coach?

Nope.

**[01:14] (Flashback) Sawa**
and I remember his offense and
defense both being really good.
**[01:18] (Flashback) Suga**
Seriously? That's awesome.
**[01:21] (Flashback) All**
We finally made it to *the* Karasuno!

**[03:05] (Flashback) Tash**
Hey, Kurokawa. Tell me the
secret behind receiving serves.
**[03:09] (Flashback) Kuro**
I'm the type that goes right for the
ball once the other team hits it.
**[03:13] (Flashback) Tash**
I see...
**[03:18] (Flashback) Tash**
Clean up!
**[03:19] (Flashback) All**
Right!
**[03:21] (Flashback) Sawa**
Say, even though there's a tournament coming up,
we haven't had many practice matches...
**[03:25] (Flashback) Azu**
They were saying that ever
since Coach Ukai's been gone,
**[03:27] (Flashback) ---**
we've lost connections with other schools.
**[03:31] (Flashback) Suga**
Apparently, even the school we
regularly had practice matches with
**[03:35] (Flashback) ---**
declined the offer for the most recent match.
**[03:37] (Flashback) Sawa**
Why?
**[03:38] (Flashback) Kuro**
It means that we're not
worth their precious time.
**[03:44] Sawa**
I knew that Karasuno was
different than before...
**[03:48] Sawa**
But I thought that if we kept practicing,
**[03:51] Sawa**
we could bring things up again.
**[03:55] Sawa**
It's not like there were big troubles,
or any hopeless situations...
**[04:01] Sawa**
Yet...
**[04:05] Sawa**
There was a fear that felt like we
were gradually getting lost...
**[04:19] (Flashback) Sawa**
Um...
**[04:21] (Flashback) Sawa**
Could I stay behind and
practice a little more?
**[04:23] (Flashback) Sawa**
I'll make sure to lock up!
**[04:25] (Flashback) Azu**
M-Me, too!
**[04:27] (Flashback) Suga**
Me, too! We'll let Sensei know, too!
**[04:30] (Flashback) Tash**
S-Sure...
**[04:33] (Flashback) Swa**
We can't go on like this!
**[04:35] (Flashback) ---**
It may seem like there's time,
but there really isn't!
**[04:37] (Flashback) Suga**
You totally sound like a teacher!
**[04:39] (Flashback) Azu**
Are you really the same
age as us, Sawamura-kun?
**[04:42] (Flashback) Sawa**
Even if we just pick up the balls,
there's still something we can do!
**[04:52] Sawa**
* Read the ball's course*
* from the form of the spike!*
**[04:59] (Flashback) Kuro**
Hey! Why did you catch that?
**[05:02] (Flashback) Sawa**
I-I'm sorry!
**[05:05] Sawa**
*We'll think and act on our own.*
**[05:10] Sawa**
* We'll do everything that*
* we possibly can right now.*
**[05:15] (Flashback) Guy**
Starting tomorrow, we have
the Inter-High qualifiers.
**[05:18] (Flashback) Guy**
Let's do our best so that
we don't have any regrets.
**[05:20] (Flashback) All**
Right!
**[05:22] (Flashback) Tash**
Let's strive to win at nationals!
**[05:26] (Flashback) Guy**
Hey, I've been thinking this for a while,
**[05:29] (Flashback) Buy**
but why don't we strive for
something more attainable?
**[05:32] (Flashback) Tash**
What?
**[05:33] (Flashback) Guy**
They say that aiming for goals that are too
high is connected to losing confidence,
**[05:36] (Flashback) Guy**
and not good.
**[05:39] (Flashback) Guy**
Wh-What the heck?
**[05:41] (Flashback) Tash**
Every time I would mention
winning at nationals,
**[05:44] (Flashback) ---**
you would just scoff and ignore me...
**[05:47] (Flashback) Tash**
Now you want to argue with me?
**[05:49] (Flashback) Tash**
What the heck? Why the heck am
I sort of happy about this, damn it?!
**[05:53] (Flashback) Guy**
Wha? Like I would know!
**[05:54] (Flashback) Tash**
I don't feel like we were
able to share our goals,
**[05:57] (Flashback) Tash**
but I feel like we're definitely
doing better than before!
**[06:00] (Flashback) Tash**
And we all share the desire
to win the upcoming match.
**[06:04] (Flashback) Tash**
We're gonna win this thing!
**[06:05] (Flashback) All**
Yeah!
**[06:06] (Flashback) Guy**
Yeah!
**[06:09] Swa**
And so, the Miyagi qualifiers
of the Inter-High...
***SIGN*** Karasuno Araigawa
**[06:16] Sawa**
Karasuno lost in the second round,
**[06:19] Sawa**
and the third-years retired.
**[06:24] (Flashback) Yko**
Karasuno's fallen back down to earth...
**[06:33] (Flashback) Tash**
We started working together way too late.
**[06:39] (Flashback) Tash**
You know how they say,
**[06:40] (Flashback) Tash**
"Chance favors the prepared mind," right?
**[06:45] (Flashback) Tash**
There's a chance that Karasuno may
never get stronger...
**[06:50] (Flashback) Tash**
Even if they do, it might
be years from now.
**[06:54] (Flashback) Tash**
Even so, if the chance appears,
you'd better grab it!
**[07:02] Sawa**
*Now. We have to go now.*
**[07:05] Sawa**
*This is that chance!*
**[07:11] Kei**
* Hinata's block that the opponent*
* hadn't been ready for*
**[07:14] Kei**
*will definitely shake them up.*
**[07:18] Kei**
*That itself is a subtle crack*
**[07:21] ---**
and the wind's definitely
blowing in our favor right now.
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[07:26] Leon**
Chance ball!
**[07:28] Shim**
Damn it!
**[07:29] Tak**
Guard that desperately stolen half-step
lead with everything you've got!
**[07:33] Shir**
Goshiki!
**[07:34] Hina**
*I moved a moment late!*
**[07:37] Kage**
* Hinata's block that suddenly*
* enters the field of view...*
**[07:40] Kge**
*They can't just ignore it.*
**[07:43] Kage**
*It's definitely going to be a straight.*
**[07:48] Nish**
Leave it to me!
**[07:53] Kei**
All right!
**[07:55] Sawa**
Nice kill, Asahi!
**[07:57] Asa**
I can't lose to Hinata and Tanaka.
**[07:59] Sawa**
Kageyama, you got a great receive, too.
**[08:01] Kage**
Thanks.
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[08:12] Sawa**
Their serve is strong!
We're going to cut it off at one!
**[08:15] All**
Right!
**[08:21] Sawa**
Nishinoya!
**[08:23] Nish**
Sorry! It's long!
**[08:26] Gosh**
*Hold it, Tsutomu!*
**[08:28] ---**
*Karasuno's setter has his back to the net.*
**[08:30] Gosh**
*There won't be a dump. Watch carefully...*
**[08:34] Gosh**
*He's already there!*
**[08:37] All**
All right!
**[08:39] Semi**
Damn it!
**[08:41] Ten**
We've gotten this far, and their
moves are as sharp as ever.
**[08:44] Ten**
They must be stamina monsters.
**[08:46] Shim**
Man...
**[08:48] ---**
That move's gotta be hard to repeat.
**[08:51] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[08:53] Nish**
We're counting on you!
**[08:54] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[08:56] Shir**
That #10 finally went back.
**[08:57] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[08:58] Yama**
Tsukki! Don't lose to Hinata!
**[09:01] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[09:02] Tsuk**
Huh?!
**[09:04] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[09:05] Tsuk**
It's not like we're competing.
**[09:07] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[09:11] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[09:12] Tsuk**
Hey.
**[09:13] Kage**
Huh?
**[09:13] Hina**
We're counting on you!
**[09:14] Yama**
Right!
**[09:14] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[09:17] Kage**
I can do it, but can you?
**[09:18] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[09:21] Kei**
Well... I practiced with Akaashi-san, so...
**[09:24] Kage**
* This guy's practicing*
* with Fukurodani's setter?*
**[09:27] Kage**
*I'm super jealous!*
**[09:30] Kei**
Hinata!
**[09:31] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[09:31] Kei**
Sit! From here on out, it's going
to be a battle of stamina.
**[09:34] Kei**
Rest while you can.
**[09:35] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[09:36] Hina**
Okay.
**[09:38] Yama**
*I don't want to lose to Hinata, either.*
**[09:41] Yama**
* This time, I'm going to*
* make my chance for sure!*
**[09:44] Yach**
Yamaguchi-kun, nice serve!
**[09:46] Sae**
Huh? Looks like he's going to hit
really close to the edge this time.
**[09:52] Kei**
*Your serve will become a weapon.*
**[09:55] Kei**
* Straight. Just concentrate*
* on hitting straight.*
**[09:59] Kei**
*Right where Ushiwaka is!*
**[10:02] Kei**
*Yes! We broke through!*
**[10:03] Ki**
*And...*
**[10:05] Ushi**
Goshiki!
**[10:06] Gosh**
Right!
**[10:06] Kei**
*Ushiwaka will follow...*
**[10:08] Yama**
Three blockers!
**[10:10] Gosh**
*Don't underestimate me.*
**[10:11] ---**
*I'm going to break through!*
**[10:15] Both**
One touch!
**[10:16] Tana**
Why, you...
**[10:17] Yama**
Nice cover!
**[10:25] Both**
*One person time difference...*
**[10:33] Tsuk**
*You're not the only one*
**[10:37] Tsuk**
* that was preparing a new move*
* at the training camp, Hinata.*
**[10:41] Kara**
All right!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[10:43] Guy**
Karasuno broke through!
**[10:45] Guy**
That first-year is pretty ballsy.
**[10:50] Hina**
Damn it, Tsukishima! Damn it...
**[10:51] Yama**
Nice kill, Tsukki!
**[10:54] Wash**
You're lowering your elbows!
**[10:56] Wsh**
You're not going to be able to hit anything
even if it's perfectly hittable like that!
**[11:01] Wash**
You've got those huge bodies of yours!
**[11:03] ---**
So you need to be more...
**[11:06] Sai**
Dynamic?
**[11:07] Wash**
Yeah!
**[11:09] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[11:09] Wash**
It's true that Karasuno's defense
is evolving throughout the match,
**[11:13] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[11:14] Wash**
even if it's just a thin veneer.
**[11:16] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[11:17] Wash**
But...
**[11:18] Ushi**
A defense with no holes doesn't exist.
**[11:20] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[11:27] Tana**
Yamaguchi, one more!
**[11:40] Shira**
It's in! Towards the front!
**[11:41] Yama**
Got it!
**[11:48] Ym**
Damn it...
**[11:51] Taki**
Ushiwaka's hits aren't easing up.
**[11:54] Aki**
But since he's hit so much, he must
be feeling it in his legs by now.
**[11:59] Shim**
Yeah. If Ushiwaka keeps going like this,
**[12:01] Shim**
he'll eventually reach
the end of his stamina.
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[12:09] Hna**
Go, Asahi-san!
**[12:12] Nish**
Got it!
**[12:18] Hina**
*It didn't line up!*
**[12:28] Sae**
All right! Lucky!
**[12:31] Yach**
My heart felt so tight!
But it all worked out!
**[12:35] Sae**
They're at set point!
**[12:38] Shim**
*Their first five-set match,*
**[12:40] ---**
* and their opponents have been to*
* nationals more than once.*
**[12:43] Taki**
* The fourth set on is unknown*
* territory for Karasuno.*
**[12:48] Ten**
He's able to make sense out of
their #10's ridiculous attacks,
**[12:52] Ten**
and has been doing it ever since
the match started like it was easy.
**[12:55] Ten**
Precision may be expected of him,
probably more than anyone else...
**[12:59] Ten**
And as he faces more pressure from the
opponent's blockers than anyone else,
**[13:03] Ten**
he touches the ball more than
anyone else in the match.
**[13:07] Ten**
Looks like that one might have
reached his limits first.
**[13:13] Kage**
Sorry.
**[13:15] Tsuk**
You apologizing is creepy, so please don't.
**[13:18] Kage**
What?!
**[13:19] Tsuk**
See? You're fine.
**[13:23] Tana**
Daichi-san, nice serve!
**[13:26] Yama**
Front!
**[13:28] Shir**
Ushijima-san!
**[13:34] Bg**
All right!
**[13:34] Nish**
Damn it!
**[13:39] Yach**
Could that be their second pinch server?
**[13:43] Aki**
Since it's Shiratorizawa, I'm sure
they've got a deep team.
**[13:47] Aki**
Please just don't bring this into a deuce...
**[13:50] Guy**
Let's go!
**[13:55] Kei**
*A jump float serve!*
**[14:00] Nish**
Sorry!
**[14:01] Kage**
Azumane-san!
**[14:05] Take**
He picked it up!
**[14:05] Kei**
It's Ushiwaka!
**[14:08] Leon**
Wakatoshi!
**[14:09] Tsuk**
Here we go. Ready, and...
**[14:17] Tana**
Damn!
**[14:20] Wash**
*When you defend a part of the court,*
**[14:23] Wash**
* you are always sacrificing*
* another part of the court.*
**[14:26] Wash**
* If you brace for a powerful hit*
* and move back, of course...*
**[14:31] Wash**
*The front will be open.*
**[14:34] Guy**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[14:38] Bg**

for the open space...
**[14:43] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[14:45] Taki**
But I thought Kageyama
would be able to get that...
**[14:46] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[14:49] Taki**
It must be exhaustion.
**[14:50] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[14:52] Ten**
Is the exhausted setter going to
have to face the deuce of despair?
**[14:53] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[14:57] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[14:59] Kage**
The only time I will ever feel despair
**[15:03] Kage**
is when I won't be able to
play volleyball anymore.
**[15:04] Bg**

Get out there!

**[19:24] Hina**
Right!
**[19:30] Shima**
If Sugawara is coming in as
a pinch server right now,
**[19:34] Shim**
that means they're going the rest of
this set with Kageyama as the setter.

Well, nothing good would come out of

No matter how tired he is

he doesn't plan on backing
down on the attacks.

**[21:46] Hina**
Thanks!
**[21:48] Swa**
*This is our ultimate opportunity.*
**[21:52] (Flashback) Tash**
If the chance appears,
**[21:55] (Flashback) ---**
you'd better grab it!
**[21:58] Sawa**
*We can do this.*
**[22:01] Sawa**
*Let's go!*
**[22:10] Kage**
Nice cover.
**[22:13] Hina**
Then at least say it with a nice face!
**[22:15] Hina**
More importantly, Kageyama...
**[22:19] Hina**
We get to play one more set!
**[22:25] Kage**
Yeah.
**[23:58] Suga**
When we were first-years,
**[23:59] Suga**
for about six months, I internally
called you "Hafing Mwe," Asahi.
**[24:03] Suga**
Since you sort of looked
like a foreigner, too.
**[24:04] Azu**
Actually, you called me that
quite a few times out loud, too.
**[24:07] Who**
Next time on *Haikyu!!*:
"Obsession."

It's short!
**[00:17] Kage**
Nice cover.
**[00:20] Hina**
More importantly, Kageyama...
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[00:22] Hina**
We get to play one more set!

**[02:00] Bgg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:02] Old**
If you play a disappointing match,
**[02:03] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:04] ---**
you're going to be running
back to school from here.
**[02:07] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:07] Ten**
We actually had to do that
when I was a first-year.
**[02:10] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:10] Ten**
At the third-years' retirement match.
**[02:14] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:14] Old**
You are you, and that's the
only reason you need to win.
**[02:17] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:19] Old**
Because you're all members that
I chose without hesitation.
**[02:20] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:24] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[02:27] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:28] Kei**
The final set...
**[02:30] Kei**
I'm thinking about starting with Sugawara.
**[02:30] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:34] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:37] Suga**
Right!
**[02:37] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:39] Kei**
We're counting on you, Sugawara!
**[02:39] Suga**
*It'll be fine.*
**[02:41] Take**
Sugawara-kun, give it your all!
**[02:41] Suga**
* This isn't the first time I'm*
* going in during a pinch.*
**[02:43] Tana**
Suga-san, give me a whole bunch of tosses!
***SIGN*** Karasuno
**[02:48] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:48] Sug**
*Damn it...*
**[02:50] Sug**
*My body's warmed up, but my hands are cold.*
**[02:51] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:55] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:58] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[03:06] Sug**
P-Please wait a while to marry me!
**[03:08] Kiyo**
Don't worry. I don't plan
on marrying you, Sugawara.
**[03:12] Suga**
You don't know that!
**[03:14] Sawa**
I'll hold your hand for you.
**[03:16] Azu**
No, I'll do it.
**[03:18] Suga**
No! Stop! Shimizu's
scent's gonna go away!
**[03:22] Sawa**
Shut up! It's not fair
that you're the only one!
**[03:25] Suga**
Don't touch me!
**[03:25] Take**
They look like they're going to be just fine.
**[03:26] Suga**
Stop!
**[03:32] Cko**
It's finally the final set.
**[03:35] Mich**
Sugawara's starting?
**[03:37] Cko**
I-I'm even more nervous now.
**[03:40] Iwa**
Kageyama was getting pretty exhausted.
**[03:43] Iwa**
They're probably going to let him rest
**[03:45] ---**
and put him back in when
they need him the most.
**[03:48] Oika**
That's only if they can make it that far.
**[03:51] Oika**
This might be a bit much for
Mr. Refreshing, don't you think?
**[03:55] Ten**
Huh? You're changing your setter?
**[03:58] Ten**
That's lame.
**[04:02] Azu**
If you get lost, just toss them to me.
**[04:06] Suga**
Well, aren't you reliable!
What are you, the ace?
**[04:09] Azu**
I am the ace!
**[04:13] Leon**
We're counting on you, Tsutomu.
**[04:14] Yama**
You can do it, future ace!
**[04:16] Gosh**
Right!
**[04:17] Sawa**
We're going to cut them off at one!
**[04:19] All**
Yeah!
***SIGN*** Fly
**[04:25] Tana**
Sorry!
**[04:27] Sua**
Asahi!
**[04:31] Kei**
All right!
**[04:31] Both**
Yes!
**[04:31] Kara**
Yeah!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[04:33] Yach**
The fifth set only goes
up to 15 points, right?
**[04:36] Sae**
It does?
**[04:37] Aki**
Yeah. It goes really quick.
**[04:40] Aki**
Hopefully they can make it
without them catching up.
**[04:43] Shim**
Sugawara is a dependable setter.
He won't fall apart.
**[04:47] Taki**
Yeah!
**[04:48] Both**
*At least, we hope...*
**[04:52] Suga**
It's Ushiwaka!
**[04:57] Shir**
All right!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[05:03] Sua**
*Damn it... This pressure is insane.*
**[05:04] Leon**
Taichi, nice serve!
**[05:09] Nish**
Front!
**[05:10] Sawa**
Got it!
**[05:13] Suga**
Sorry!
**[05:14] Suga**
*That toss was low... Stop panicking!*
**[05:19] Ten**
It's definitely going to be the left.
**[05:24] Nish**
Out!
**[05:26] Ten**
D'oh.
**[05:28] Ten**
The middle was blocked, so you went
for the safe left the second time.
**[05:31] Ten**
You're so easy to read.
**[05:34] Suga**
Well, our left is pretty efficient, so...
**[05:37] Ten**
I want to break your heart in two!
**[05:41] Suga**
* Our spikers are strong.*
* I know that more than anyone.*
**[05:47] Suga**
Asahi, nice serve!
**[05:58] Suga**
Got it!
**[06:00] Suga**
*Our team is plenty strong.*
**[06:03] Suga**
*But...*
**[06:05] Suga**
Nishinoya!
**[06:09] Suga**
*we don't stop there!*
**[06:11] Iwa**
From a libero setting
**[06:14] Iwa**
to a synchronized attack with
everyone other than the libero?
**[06:18] (Flashback) Nish**
Asahi-san! There's still time,
so will you hit one of my tosses?
**[06:22] (Flashback) Tana**
Noya-san! Let me hit one, too!
**[06:24] (Flashback) Nish**
Heck, yeah! Of course, Ryu!
**[06:26] (Flashback) Suga**
Hey, me, too!
**[06:27] (Flashback) Tana**
Oh, are you going to set some
up for us, Suga-san? Thanks!
**[06:31] (Flashback) Suga**
Oh, no, no.
**[06:35] Suga**
*I'm going to spike!*
**[06:45] Kara**
All right!
**[06:47] Kawa**
All of them...
**[06:49] Semi**
No one to follow up and block?
**[06:52] Sae**
Yeah! I love ya, Suga-kun!
**[06:53] Shim**
Looks like we didn't have to
worry about him falling apart.
**[06:57] Taki**
Looks like our minds were a bit closed.
**[07:01] Suga**
*My weapon is my reliability.*
**[07:04] Suga**
*But...*
**[07:05] Suga**
*I can do new things, too.*
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[07:08] Suga**
All right! It's a break!
**[07:11] Sawa**
Nice kill, Suga!
**[07:12] Suga**
Yeah!
**[07:13] Azu**
We did it!
**[07:14] Coa**
*Satori!*
**[07:15] (Flashback) Coac**
How many times do I have to tell you?
Don't jump just on your hunch!
**[07:19] (Flashback) Ten**
But I've scored a ton of
points just on my hunches.
**[07:23] (Flashback) Coa**
That's not going to happen all the time.
**[07:26] (Flashback) Coa**
There are limits to individual skills.
**[07:28] (Flashback) Ten**
There's no point if you don't feel good now.
**[07:33] (Flashback) Guy**
Practice always stops when Tendo's around,
**[07:37] (Flashback) Guy**
though it's nice to be able to rest.
**[07:39] (Flashback) Guy**
Or rather, Tendo's sort of scary.
**[07:42] (Flashback) ---**
You never know what he's thinking.
**[07:45] (Flashback) Guy**
I know, right?
**[07:48] (Flashback) Ten**
I...
**[07:49] (Flashback) Ten**
Just want to play volleyball
that makes me feel good.
**[07:55] (Flashback) Wash**
I don't have any complaints,
as long as you can score.
**[08:00] Ten**
Keep on breaking them!
**[08:04] Ten**
What, you say?
**[08:07] Ten**
Their hearts...

**[08:28] (Flashback) Ten**
Wakatoshi-kun, did you catch Sadako
when it was on last week?
**[08:32] (Flashback) Ushi**
I didn't.
**[08:34] (Flashback) Ten**
It's scary, but I ended up watching
it because the leading actress,
**[08:38] (Flashback) ---**
Brunhilde Reiko, is super cute!
**[08:40] (Flashback) Ush**
I see.
**[08:41] (Flashback) Ten**
Isn't she cute? Brunhilde Reiko.
**[08:41] (Flashback) Leon**
The only person who could excitedly
talk to Wakatoshi about TV is Satori...
**[08:43] (Flashback) Ushi**
I don't know who that is.
**[08:45] (Flashback) Ten**
But you know, I don't know about the
other girl, at least in my opinion.
**[08:46] (Flashback) Semi**
One of them doesn't look too excited.
**[08:47] (Flashback) ---**
No matter how you look at it.
**[08:49] (Flashback) Ten**
You never look like you're having
fun doing anything, Wakatoshi-kun.
**[08:52] (Flashback) Semi**
That's so rude!
**[08:54] (Flashback) Ten**
Why did you start playing
volleyball, Wakatoshi-kun?
**[08:58] (Flashback) Ush**
I learned it from my father
for a little while.
**[09:00] (Flashback) Ten**
Huh...
***SIGN*** Ushijima
**[09:04] (Flashback) Mom**
I thought it'd be better to fix
his left-handedness early on...
**[09:08] (Flashback) Dad**
What? No, that's not necessary.
**[09:11] (Flashback) Old**
We've always done that in our household.
**[09:17] (Flashback) Dad**
I'm sorry, but please... Anything but that.
**[09:22] (Flashback) Dad**
The fact that he's different from other people
**[09:25] (Flashback) Dad**
will probably end up being his strength.
**[09:28] (Flashback) Dad**
I won't complain about anything else!
**[09:32] (Flashback) Ten**
Was your dad a volleyball player?
**[09:34] (Flashback) Ush**
Yeah, he was a secondary league player.
**[09:37] (Flashback) Ush**
But apparently, before he got married,
he got injured quite often and retired.
**[09:40] (Flashback) Ten**
Huh... What's his name?
**[09:43] (Flashback) Ushi**
Utsui Takashi.
**[09:44] (Flashback) Ten**
Don't know him. So his name's not Ushijima?
**[09:48] (Flashback) Ushi**
He married into my mother's family.
**[09:50] (Flashback) Ushi**
Though my parents divorced a while back.
**[09:52] (Flashback) Ten**
Huh? Oh, sorry...
**[09:54] (Flashback) Ushi**
Hm? It's fine.
**[09:56] (Flashback) Ten**
Do you ever see him?
**[09:57] (Flashback) Ush**
No. He's overseas right now.
**[09:59] (Flashback) Ten**
Wow, that's so cool!
**[10:01] (Flashback) Ten**
So if you become a star, your dad
will probably watch you, too.
**[10:06] (Flashback) Ushi**
Perhaps.
**[10:07] (Flashback) Leon**
I think back in your dad's time,
Shiratorizawa conquered nationals.
**[10:13] (Flashback) Ten**
Seriously?! That's awesome!
**[10:15] (Flashback) ---**
So you wanted to be like
your dad, or something?
**[10:17] (Flashback) Ush**
No, not really.
**[10:19] (Flashback) Ten**
Oh, I see.
**[10:20] (Flashback) Ush**
It's just...
**[10:22] (Flashback) Taka**
Our ace was literally the best ace in Japan.
**[10:27] (Flashback) Taka**
Back then, he was 190 centimeters tall.
**[10:30] (Flashback) Taka**
He was a third-year in high school,
but he was still growing.
**[10:32] (Flashback) Taka**
But it wasn't just his physique.
**[10:34] (Flashback) Taka**
He made you think that if you tossed to him,
**[10:37] (Flashback) ---**
he would never disappoint you.
**[10:40] (Flashback) Taka**
He would make it work.
**[10:43] (Flashback) Taka**
It makes you get all excited.
**[10:47] (Flashback) Ushi**
I wanted to be like that.
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[10:56] Kara**
All right!
**[11:01] Kiyo**
Why don't you do that, too, Kageyama?
**[11:03] Kage**
I can't... I haven't practiced that.
**[11:06] Kage**
I haven't practiced to
match up with Nishinoya-san.
**[11:11] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[11:12] Sae**
That was fast! Already?
**[11:13] Shima**
Well, once someone gets the lead in
the fifth set, it's over in no time.
**[11:15] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[11:17] Wash**
Take it back! That is all.
**[11:18] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
Karasuno!
**[11:19] All**
Right!
**[11:21] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
Karasuno!
**[11:21] Leon**
Karasuno sure does some reckless attacks.
**[11:24] Ush**
Yeah. I've never seen a libero set up and
then everyone else come in to attack.
**[11:25] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[11:28] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
Karasuno!
**[11:31] Ten**
You're impressed with that,
but you don't like their #10, huh?
**[11:32] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
Karasuno!
**[11:35] Ten**
You probably don't like their #10
because he's so enigmatic, right?
**[11:35] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[11:37] ---**
Karasuno!
**[11:38] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[11:39] Ten**
Things you can't understand are scary, right?
**[11:41] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[11:42] Ushi**
They're not scary.
**[11:43] Ten**
No, I mean, they're sort of creepy.
**[11:47] Ten**
If anything, the feeling of something
**[11:48] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[11:49] ---**
being slightly creepy must
be a new feeling for you, huh?
**[11:52] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
Karasuno!
**[11:58] Nish**
Asahi-san, one more!
**[12:09] Tak**
This time, it hit the net on our side.
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[12:15] Kei**
One more!
**[12:20] Kei**
All right, they broke through.
**[12:26] Ten**
How beautiful.
**[12:30] Shir**
All right!
**[12:33] Dad**
* The fact that he's different*
* from other people*
**[12:36] (Flashback) Dad**
will probably end up being his strength.
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[12:45] Gosh**
Ushijima-san! One more nice serve!
**[12:48] Leon**
Wakatoshi! Get an intense one over!
**[12:53] All**
Bring it!
**[13:04] Shir**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
**[13:06] Azu**
Sorry!
**[13:07] Sawa**
We'll get the next one!
**[13:08] Bg**
Ushijima! Ushijima!
**[13:09] Taki**
Stop them here!
**[13:11] ---**
If you don't, it's going to get rough.
**[13:18] Nish**
Daichi-san!
**[13:21] Azu**
Suga, get the last!
**[13:24] Kage**
*He got the setter to take it. That's good...*
**[13:26] Shi**
Tendo-san!
**[13:28] Ten**
Righto!
**[13:30] Ten**
*Hup.*
**[13:44] Nish**
*I thought he would definitely hit to me,*
**[13:47] ---**
*given which way his body was facing,*
**[13:51] Nish**
*but...*
**[13:52] Nish**
*he changed the course right when he hit it.*
**[13:57] Taka**
*Join a strong team.*
**[14:00] Ten**
Nice toss, me!
**[14:00] Taka**
* Strong guys and interesting guys*
* gather in a strong environment.*
**[14:01] Gosh**
Nice aim!
**[14:02] Yama**
I'm surprised you were able to hit that.
**[14:05] Taka**
* And if you become stronger, you'll be*
* able to go up against various people.*
**[14:08] Taka**
*Strong guys, weird guys, and new guys.*
**[14:13] (Flashback) Taka**
I'm sure that they will make you stronger.
**[14:19] (Flashback) Taka**
Well, that's only if you want
to continue playing volleyball.
**[14:25] (Flashback) Taka**
It doesn't matter how,
**[14:27] (Flashback) Taka**
but if you end up liking volleyball
in some way, it'll make me happy.
**[14:35] Leon**
That was really sharp. That was amazing.
**[14:39] Ush**
If I were to borrow Tendo's words...
**[14:43] Ush**
"I'm starting to get into it."
**[14:56] Both**
Out!
**[15:01] Shir**
All right!
**[15:03] Guy**
Shiratorizawa turned it around!
***SIGN*** Karasuno Shiratorizawa
**[15:05] Coa**
Wakatoshi's serves can still
be pretty hit-or-miss,
**[15:09] Coa**
but he's doing amazingly today.
**[15:12] Ten**
Looks like you set our ace on fire.
**[15:22] Take**
He got it!
**[15:25] Azu**
Get the last one over!
**[15:27] Yama**
Chance ball!
**[15:32] Aki**
Ushiwaka from the back?
**[15:41] Tsuk**
One touch!
***SIGN*** Be Courageous Warriors
**[15:45] Bg**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
**[15:49] Shir**
So annoying...
**[15:50] Bg**
Ushijima! Ushijima!
**[15:51] Tsuk**
Thanks!
**[15:54] Take**
That was close...
**[15:56] Kei**
Usually, you want to jump up against the
spiker that's going to hit right in front of you,
**[16:01] Kei**
but Tsukishima usually
doesn't fall for decoys.
**[16:04] Take**
So he's read blocking.
**[16:06] Kei**
Wherever the toss goes up,
Tsukishima will be there.
**[16:10] Kei**
When there's a wall,
no matter where you are,
**[16:12] Kei**
that itself is extremely unpleasant.
**[16:16] Kei**
And if that keeps happening
all throughout five sets,
**[16:20] Kei**
no matter how unflappable
someone may be,
**[16:22] Kei**
it'll end up being pretty stressful.
**[16:30] Azu**
The front!
**[16:32] Yama**
Chance ball!
**[16:37] Ten**
What?!
**[16:38] Tsuk**
*You're not getting it over.*
**[16:41] Yama**
One more! One more!
**[16:46] Tsu**
One touch!
**[16:48] Hina**
*He's just like Aone-san!*
**[16:49] Shim**
Nice one touch!
**[16:52] Tak**
Crap... Tsukki is so freaking reliable!
**[16:55] Nish**
Chance ball!
**[16:59] Suga**
*He read us?*
**[17:01] Ten**
* Using the middle where there's*
* a block waiting is scary, right?*
**[17:04] Ten**
*I get it. That's why you go for the left.*
**[17:06] Ten**
*Yup. Totally understandable.*
**[17:12] Ten**
One...
**[17:13] Ten**
more...
**[17:15] Ten**
time!
**[17:17] Aki**
*Such intense concentration.*
**[17:19] Aki**
*With such a long rally and exhaustion,*
**[17:22] Aki**
* it wouldn't be weird if their bodies*
* were moving faster than their minds...*
**[17:26] Aki**
* But he just grasps the*
* necessary information.*
**[17:39] Gosh**
Nice aim...
**[17:42] Gosh**
Out?!
**[17:44] Ush**
Sorry.
**[17:45] Gosh**
D-Don't mind...
**[17:47] Sae**
He missed? Lucky!
**[17:48] Shima**
That's not lucky at all!
**[17:51] Shima**
It just means that his mind was trying
to avoid the block that strongly.
**[17:56] Yach**
Huh?
**[17:58] Taki**
What? It was overruled?
**[18:00] Sae**
What?
**[18:01] Shim**
The ball hit the line just a little bit.
It's Shiratorizawa's point.
**[18:06] Sae**
Seriously?!
**[18:08] Sae**
But that was great determination!
**[18:09] Sae**
Switch it up, switch it up!
**[18:13] Kage**
Um...
**[18:16] Kage**
There's something wrong with his hand.
**[18:20] Tsuk**
Damn it...
**[18:25] Semi**
What?
**[18:32] Kei**
It must have been cut when
you touched Ushiwaka's spike.
**[18:36] Kei**
*I hope that's the extent of it though...*
**[18:39] Kei**
Narita!
**[18:40] Nari**
Yes!

Damn it, at a time like this...
**[18:45] Tsuk**
* Thankfully, it was just my pinky.*
* If I can just endure the pain...*
**[18:47] Tsuk**
* How long does it take*
* for it to stop bleeding?*
**[18:49] Tsuk**
*If we just tape it up so it'll be stiff...*
**[18:51] Tsuk**
* The next rotation will have*
* Hinata on the front line.*
**[18:52] Tsuk**
*I need to figure something out by then.*
**[18:53] Kei**
Get him to the infirmary.
**[18:55] Oi**
Oh, dear. He got hurt?
**[18:57] Iwa**
Glasses leaving this late in the
game is going to hurt a lot.
**[19:06] Tsuk**
You'd better buy me some time!
**[19:09] Hina**
By the time you get back,
we'll already be bound for nationals!
**[19:20] Sawa**
All right! Concentrate!
**[19:23] Nari**
Right!
**[19:24] Nish**
Kazuhito! You're not alone in your blocks!
**[19:27] ---**
I'll be right behind you!
**[19:28] Nari**
Right!
**[19:29] Suga**
Don't hold back and go for it,
just like we practiced.
**[19:32] Nari**
Right!
**[19:33] Ten**
Looks like he had to go away.
**[19:36] Ten**
But we're not gonna hold back.
**[19:38] Ushi**
Of course not.

I came here to see my younger
brother fight bravely, of course!
**[19:51] Aki**
Though it looks like you're
not going to die from that.
**[19:53] Tsuk**
What do you mean, "die"?
**[19:55] Tsuk**
Even if I'm alive, I'm being pretty
useless when it matters most.
**[19:59] Tsuk**
Though, after five sets, I'm pretty tired,
so it's sort of nice to be able to rest.
**[20:04] Tsuk**
Even though my hand hurts.
**[20:14] Aki**
"My teammates will win,
even if I leave them alone."
**[20:17] Aki**
You just have to believe that.
**[20:20] Kiyo**
Don't worry.
**[20:22] Kyo**
You won't have to worry about
going back just to see them lose.

Yeah, he does look like a monster.
**[22:02] Leon**
Good job reading that, Satori.
**[22:04] Ten**
Yeah, it was just a hunch.

Whoa, what? Seriously?

**[02:04] Old**
Damn it!
**[02:06] Guy**
See? That's why you've got to have
someone follow up with a block.
**[02:09] Guy**
Having everyone attack is way too reckless!
**[02:12] Oika**
That block was rather effective.
**[02:15] Iwa**
Did that just decide this match?
**[02:21] Sua**
Next time...
**[02:23] Suga**
We'll do that again next time.
**[02:30] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:31] Kei**
Hinata.
**[02:33] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:33] Kei**
Always keep the block timing in your head.
**[02:36] Kei**
Since you lack height, that'll be
much more important for you.
**[02:36] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:39] ---**
Yeah.
**[02:40] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:40] Kei**
If you feel like it's going
to be even a little late,
**[02:42] Kei**
switch over to a soft block.
**[02:43] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[02:46] Hina**
The plate, right?
**[02:48] Bg**
Push through!
**[02:48] Bg**
Go!
**[02:58] All**
All right!
**[02:59] Ushi**
Sorry.
**[03:00] Gosh**
Don't mind!
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[03:02] Sae**
It finally stopped.
**[03:04] Shim**
How many points in a row did they get
with Ushiwaka serving there? Five?
**[03:09] Tak**
Six.
**[03:10] Shim**
More than a third what they need to win.
**[03:12] Tak**
But Hinata's coming back out now.
**[03:15] Tak**
Pull something off again!
**[03:15] Hina**
Yeah!
**[03:19] Hina**
Narita-san! One more, nice serve!
***SIGN*** Fly
**[03:21] Tana**
Nice serve!

*It's not Kageyama. Don't jump too early!*
**[03:52] Hina**
*It's first tempo with anyone.*

*One blocker!*

All right!
**[04:01] Kara**
Go, go, Karasuno!
Push it, push it, Karasuno!
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[04:05] Suga**
We're just two points behind!
**[04:07] Tana**
Hinata, is your eye okay?
**[04:10] Hina**
Yup!
**[04:11] Suga**
You sure got hit in a strange place.
**[04:14] Hina**
My hands couldn't go up in time, so I
thought about receiving it with my face,
**[04:17] Hina**
but I didn't want it to hit my nose, so...
**[04:19] Suga**
What?! So you moved your face
because you could actually see it?
**[04:24] Hina**
Well, if I got a nosebleed, I'd
have to go back onto the bench.
**[04:35] Ushi**
*When I heard about Karasuno's first-year duo,*
**[04:38] Ushi**
*and when he stole my ball at the school,*
**[04:42] Ushi**
*I was anticipating...*
**[04:44] Ushi**
* That he was like the other small*
* yet talented players I have met.*
**[04:51] Ushi**
*But I was wrong.*
**[04:53] Ushi**
* I couldn't feel the same talented*
* techniques or intelligence in him.*
**[04:59] Ushi**
*But...*
**[05:03] Ushi**
*I see.*
**[05:05] Ushi**
*Something about him annoys me.*
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa
**[05:10] Ushi**
*I haven't doubted once that we would win.*
**[05:15] Ushi**
*But right now,*
**[05:16] Ushi**
*I am completely sure*
**[05:20] Ushi**
*that I want to crush you.*
**[05:32] Nish**
Kazuhito, nice serve!
**[05:32] Shi**
All right, keep it up. Don't give up!
**[05:35] Taki**
Oh, hey, look!
**[05:38] Taki**
Kageyama's warming up!
**[05:41] Taki**
He's going back in!
**[05:44] Shir**
Ohira-san!
**[05:48] All**
All right!
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[05:50] Hina**
*The taste of blood in my mouth...*
**[05:54] Sae**
I wonder if Shoyo's in pain after all.
**[05:57] Sae**
But having someone to follow
up and block is reassuring.
**[06:01] Shim**
Earlier, he followed up
like that because there was
**[06:03] ---**
no getting around Asahi hitting it, but...
**[06:06] Shim**
Usually, their style is anyone
who can attack, will attack.
**[06:11] Shim**
They don't think their attack being stopped.
They trust that it won't.
**[06:16] Shim**
So as soon as their attack is stopped,
they're pretty much out.
**[06:20] Shim**
Though we did get yelled at about
following up with a block quite a bit.
**[06:25] Taki**
If I were the coach, I'd do the same thing.
**[06:27] Taki**
Actually, even as a player,
**[06:29] ---**
I can't help but hope
that someone follows up.
**[06:31] Taki**
Because it's scary.
**[06:35] Semi**
Good! Nice, Wakatoshi!
**[06:38] Shir**
Goshiki!
**[06:39] Suga**
*Narrowing the paths for angle shots...*
**[06:41] Suga**
*And Daichi's in the path for a straight.*
**[06:43] Gosh**
* Bring it! I'm going to take*
* my chance with that straight!*
**[06:48] Sawa**
Sorry! It's long!
**[06:52] Sawa**
Suga!
**[06:55] Sug**
*If we go for what's somewhat safe here,*
**[06:57] ---**
*it'll mean we never changed!*
**[07:01] Guy**
They're going to do it again!
**[07:02] Guy**
Aren't they scared?
**[07:05] All**
Synchronized attack: all!
**[07:09] Ten**
*Judging by his form, it won't be a back toss.*
**[07:13] Ten**
* I haven't seen him do any*
* combos with their #10.*
**[07:16] Ten**
* So it'll probably got to the guy*
* with the facial hair in the back...*
**[07:19] Ten**
*No.*
**[07:20] Suga**
*We'll do that again next time.*
**[07:27] Ten**
*I know...*
**[07:28] Ten**
* When I'm in this kind of thought*
* process, I've already lost.*
**[07:33] Suga**
*Is there a toss going up for me?*
**[07:36] Bg**
All right!
**[07:36] Suga**
*I'm not going to think about that.*
**[07:39] Suga**
*I'm going to hit it.*
**[07:39] Both**
Soy, soy, soy!
**[07:40] Suga**
* By attacking with that in mind, our*
* opponents' blocks become confused.*
**[07:45] Hina**
Soy!
**[07:47] Suga**
*It's obvious when you see their faces.*
**[07:49] Shima**
I can't believe Sugawara was able
**[07:51] ---**
to fearlessly charge like that again,
right after he was shut down!
**[07:54] Taki**
I'm sure he's scared,
**[07:55] ---**
but I guess it's more important to
have an even stronger will to attack.
**[07:59] Wash**
Satori!
**[08:01] Wash**
Stick your hands up, damn it!
**[08:03] Wash**
I don't care if your
prediction ends up wrong!
**[08:05] Wash**
I put you in there knowing damn
well that might be a possibility!
**[08:10] Ten**
Right!
**[08:12] Taki**
Here he comes!
**[08:19] Hina**
Are you finally back, Tiredyama-kun?
**[08:24] Kage**
Watch out for the back of your head.
**[08:29] Sawa**
Kageyama, one more, nice serve!
**[08:46] Yama**
* He just got back and he was*
* able to serve like that?*
**[08:48] Nish**
It's coming back!
**[08:49] Kei**
Chance ball! Be careful with...
**[08:51] Sawa**
Got it—
**[08:51] Kage**
Got it!
**[08:54] Shira**
*The first touch turned right into a set?*
**[08:57] Ten**
*Damn!*
**[09:04] Guy**
There it is! The straight-down hit!
**[09:07] Guy**
I-I didn't really see it,
but everything's so fast!
**[09:10] Gy**
One point behind!

Great job, Hinata! Awesome!
**[09:15] ---**
* I thought that our usual quick would*
* have been enough of a surprise attack,*
**[09:17] Hiina**
Thanks!
**[09:18] Kge**
*but this time he came at me on purpose.*
**[09:21] ---**

* His serves are intense.*
* Try to stop him at one!*
**[09:44] Guy**
Hey, why isn't Semi-san our main setter?
**[09:47] Guy**
He's way better than
Shirabu-san, to be honest.
**[09:50] Guy**
It all depends on what you
consider to be better.
**[09:52] Guy**
I think Shirabu-san's pretty
reliable, so I like him.
**[09:56] Semi**
*I know what makes me inferior to Shirabu.*
**[10:00] Semi**
*The need to show just how strong I am.*
**[10:03] Semi**
* Even though I know Shiratorizawa's*
* setter doesn't need that right now,*
**[10:08] ---**
*it can't be stopped.*
**[10:11] Semi**
*But serves... With serves, I'm free!*

Shoyo...
**[12:43] Take**
N-Nice block...
**[12:46] Take**
Was that a block?
**[12:47] Kei**
I told him to do a soft block,
**[12:49] Kei**
but that was more of an insanely
close receive than a quick block.
**[12:54] Kei**
I'd be too scared of that hitting

That's a block that got
in the way of a receive.
**[13:30] Gosh**
U-Ushijima-san, you just got
stopped by a nameless first-year.
**[13:34] ---**
Guess you've still got a ways to go.

I guess so.

He actually had the instinct

Yeah!

you'd like. I'll follow you.

Get out there!

We're counting on you!

Go, Yamaguchi!
**[14:11] Sawa**
Don't hold back.

**[14:20] Yama**
* I'll be aiming straight down diagonally*

**[15:13] Azu**
Slowly. Slowly.
**[15:15] Azu**
Ready, and...
**[15:19] Azu**
* Despite all these barriers, it's still*
* not enough to stop him?*
**[15:23] Tana**
Got it!
**[15:26] Nara**
*It didn't match...*
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[15:33] Tana**
All right! We caught up!
**[15:36] Kage**
That was a little high. I'll correct it.
**[15:38] Nari**
No, uh... sure.
**[15:40] Shir**
* You're using a quick when*
* you just matched up*
**[15:43] ---**
*for the first time today?!*
**[15:45] Azu**
Yamaguchi, one more!
**[15:57] Yma**
*It's long!*
**[15:58] Yama**
Out!
**[16:02] All**
All right!
**[16:02] Yama**
Sorry. I judged that too late.
**[16:04] Gosh**
No, um... Damn!
**[16:07] All**
Yamaguchi!
**[16:09] Sawa**
Nice serve, Yamaguchi!
**[16:11] ---**
Thanks!
**[16:12] Old**
Time—
**[16:12] Ushi**
What's the matter, Goshiki?
**[16:14] Ushi**
Why would you have any reason to
panic with all of your talent?
**[16:14] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[16:18] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[16:21] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[16:24] Bg**
Shiratorizawa!
**[16:25] Gosh**
Right.
**[16:27] Ush**
We're going to stop it this time.
**[16:28] Leon**
He doesn't dress up his words, nor
do they have any other meaning.
**[16:28] Gosh**
Right!
**[16:31] Leon**
*No encouragement, just the truth.*
**[16:31] ---**
Shiratorizawa!
**[16:33] Leon**
* No more words are needed from*
* the great ace to the other ace.*
**[16:38] Guy**
They turned it around!
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[16:40] ---**
They just scored three points in a row!
**[16:42] Guy**
Holy crap! They might
just make it all the way!
**[16:46] Old**
Win...
**[16:47] ---**
Win, Karasuno!
**[16:57] Yama**
*All right!*
**[17:01] Shir**
*That's perfect, Ohira-san.*
**[17:06] All**
All right!
**[17:07] Guy**
Whoa... That angle was brutal.
**[17:07] Bg**
Nice kill, Goshiki!
**[17:10] Guy**
They got that precisely through
that incomplete block.
**[17:11] Bg**
Goshiki!
**[17:13] Bg**
Goshiki!
**[17:17] Guy**
I'm sure he wanted to make up
for his last serve receive.
**[17:22] Hina**
Great job, Yamaguchi! Leave the rest to me!
**[17:25] Yama**
But you're going to be switching
immediately with Nishinoya-san.
**[17:29] Ten**
Tsutomu, keep calm!
***SIGN*** Be Courageous Warriors
**[17:31] Goosh**
I know!
**[17:36] Gosh**
Here we go.
**[17:37] All**
Bring it!
**[17:47] Tana**
Damn it!
**[17:50] Taki**
* Isn't that #8 supposed to*
* be the impulsive type?!*
**[17:53] Semi**
Tsutomu is our only first-year
that's in the starting lineup.
**[17:56] Semi**
Don't underestimate him.
**[17:58] Tana**
Noya-san!
**[18:03] All**
All right!
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[18:05] Bg**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
**[18:07] Iwa**
They've got Karasuno cornered.
**[18:10] Bg**
Ushijima! Ushijima!
**[18:10] Oika**
Not to mention Glasses isn't here, either.
**[18:13] Oika**
I wonder how they're gonna
survive this match point.
**[18:13] Bg**
One more point! One more point!
**[18:17] Bg**
One more point! One more point!
**[18:25] All**
Nice receive!
**[18:28] All**
*Synchronized attack!*
**[18:35] All**
All right!
**[18:37] Kawa**
* You actually made the guy who just*
* received the ball hit it again?*
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[18:40] Coa**
A deuce...
**[18:42] Coa**
They should be running out
of stamina any time now,
**[18:44] Coa**
and they're all still able to run like that...
**[18:47] Wash**
Messing with us with numbers...
**[18:49] Wsh**
I have no choice but to admit
that it's an effective attack.
**[18:54] Wash**
Coach!
**[18:56] (Flashback) Wash**
I won't lose to anyone in receiving,
**[18:59] (Flashback) Wash**
and I can jump really well,
so I'm confident in my attacks, too!
**[19:02] (Flashback) Old**
Right. Now you just have
to get a bit taller...
**[19:08] Wash**
*I'm so small, I can't even fight?*
**[19:12] Wash**
* I'm going to lose to someone*
* just because they're tall?*
**[19:15] (Flashback) Guy**
One more!
**[19:18] (Flashback) Guy**
One more, please!
**[19:20] Wash**
*No one here is just big.*
**[19:24] Wash**
*I understand that.*
**[19:28] Wash**
*I envy them, and they annoy me,*
**[19:31] ---**
*yet I admire them greatly.*
**[19:36] Wash**
* Do I want a way to fight,*
* even though I'm small?*
**[19:41] Wash**
*No, I...*
**[19:46] Tak**
If they don't break, Karasuno's
going to continue to be in danger.
**[19:49] Shim**
Their stamina and concentration's
could run out at any moment.
**[19:52] Shim**
No matter what it takes, just get the ball up
from Shiratorizawa's powerful cannon
**[19:56] ---**
any way you can.
**[19:58] Tana**
Daichi-san, nice serve!
**[20:04] Taki**
*It's short!*
**[20:07] Leon**
* There has to be a limit to*
* aiming for the damn net!*
**[20:10] Ush**
Goshiki!
**[20:11] Gosh**
Right!
**[20:16] Sae**
It's connecting! It's connecting!
**[20:19] Azu**
Kageyama, get the last!
**[20:23] Sei**
This is our chance! Hit it once more!
**[20:26] Ten**
They made our setter get it!
**[20:29] Kawa**
Ushijima-san!
**[20:30] Azu**
* Don't panic! If we get the*
* timing wrong, it's all over.*
**[20:34] Zu**
Ready, and...
**[20:37] Wash**
* Do I want a way to fight,*
* even though I'm small?*
**[20:42] Wash**
*No, I...*
**[20:45] Wash**
* I want a simple strength that*
* can make anything surrender.*
**[20:56] Shim**
They're not giving up!
**[20:57] Taki**
Damn it. But it's taking everything
they have just to return the ball.
**[21:01] Old**
* A rally where both sides are low stamina*
* and fighting for control of the game...*
**[21:05] Old**
* Don't let your energy run out,*
* and don't stop hitting the ball.*
**[21:09] Azu**
*It hasn't fallen yet.*
**[21:11] Tana**
*It hasn't fallen yet.*
**[21:13] Yama**
Stop it!
**[21:13] Both**
*This point!*
**[21:15] All**
*We have to get it, no matter what!*
**[21:17] Shira**
*Shut up! We're stronger!*
**[21:25] All**
All right!
**[21:28] Bg**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
**[21:32] Bg**
Ushijima! Ushijima!
**[21:35] Bg**
One more point! One more point!
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[21:39] Bg**
One more point! One more point!
**[21:45] Take**
*Oh, no... Everyone's mood just plummeted.*
**[21:48] Take**
*But we don't have any more timeouts...*
**[21:50] Kei**
Don't you dare look down!
**[21:57] Kei**
Volleyball...
**[22:01] Kei**
is a sport where you're always looking up!
**[22:15] Sae**
Hitoka-chan!
**[23:59] Sae**
A-Are you okay?
**[24:01] Yach**
I don't usually climb stairs
two at a time, so...
**[24:04] Shim**
All right! Now that Yacchan's back, it's
finally time for the counterattack!

**[02:07] Some**
Go! One more!
**[02:19] Tsuk**
*Ugh, it hurts.*
**[02:21] Tsuk**
*This seriously sucks.*
**[02:25] Kuro**
*Don't come in feeling like a decoy.*
**[02:28] Kuro**
*Stop, then jump up.*
**[02:30] (Flashback) Kuro**
Oh, by the way...
**[02:31] (Flashback) Kuro**
Generally, when you're
one-on-one with a spiker,
**[02:33] (Flashback) Kuro**
rather than lining up
with their bodies to block,
**[02:36] (Flashback) ---**
if you line up with their
dominant hand...
**[02:41] (Flashback) Take**
Being too comfortable can be scary.
**[02:43] (Flashback) Take**
To think that the weirdo quick
that we thought was unstoppable
**[02:46] (Flashback) Take**
would be stopped...
**[02:55] (Flashback) Kuro**
Yeah!
**[02:56] (Flashback) Boku**
Damn it! One more time!
**[02:59] (Flashback) Tsuk**
Did you just change which course
you were going to close?
**[03:02] (Flashback) Aka**
So you noticed? Not bad.
**[03:04] (Flashback) Boku**
Tsukki! Jump some blocks for me! Okay?!
**[03:13] Kiyo**
* He's not just being calm.*
* He's concentrating.*
**[03:15] Kiyo**
*Not on how the match is going...*
**[03:18] Kiyo**
* he's probably thinking about what*
* he's going to do when he gets back.*
**[03:27] Yama**
Tsukki!
**[03:34] Guy**
The glasses guy from Karasuno's back!
**[03:37] Guy**
It's too late! It's all going
to be over with one more point.
**[03:40] Old**
It's not gonna end!
**[03:44] Kei**
Tsukishima—
**[03:45] Tsuk**
The bleeding has stopped.
**[03:46] Tsuk**
They immobilized the part that
was dislocated rock hard.
**[03:48] Tsuk**
Because it was my pinky, it'll
affect my play extremely little.
**[03:54] Kiyo**
That basically sums it up.
**[03:57] Kei**
*To think a day would come*
**[03:58] ---**
* when he'd strongly express how*
* much he wants to be in the game.*
**[04:02] Sae**
Is Kei okay?!
**[04:05] Yach**
Um... He hurt his pinky, so they taped
it to his ring finger and immobilized it,
**[04:09] Yach**
and apparently he can continue playing.
**[04:12] Yach**
But I'm pretty sure...
**[04:14] Yach**
The pain hasn't stopped at all.
**[04:19] Hina**
I bought you some time...
**[04:22] Hina**
Though, to be honest,
**[04:24] Hina**
Yamaguchi actually bought more time than me.
**[04:26] Tsuk**
Well, thanks for your honesty.
***SIGN*** Be Courageous Warriors
**[04:28] Bg**
One more point! One more
point! One more point!
**[04:36] Sawa**
It's probably going to be a jump float serve.
**[04:38] Sawa**
We need to move up our defenses.
**[04:43] Sawa**
* If we can stop them here, it'll*
* be Asahi's turn to serve next.*
**[04:48] Leon**
Yunohama, nice serve!
**[04:52] Nish**
Daichi-san!
**[04:54] Sawa**
All right!
**[04:56] Leon**
* If they didn't have that guy, Karasuno's*
* defense would be more full of holes.*
**[04:56] Tana**
Nice receive!
**[05:08] All**
All right!
**[05:09] Kage**
*He read me.*
**[05:10] ---**
* Looks like that's probably*
* not going to work anymore...*
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[05:13] Guy**
A dump right there?!
**[05:15] Old**
Good! Good! Though you guys are
taking years off my life, damn it.
**[05:22] Nari**
We're counting on you, Tsukishima.
**[05:32] Kei**
Well done.
**[05:34] Kei**
Being able to play like you normally
do in this situation is impressive.
**[05:39] Nari**
Right!
**[05:42] Tana**
Tsukishima!
**[05:44] Tana**
Look at you, showing up
like some hero, you jerk!
**[05:47] Tsuk**
Um... about when we do a 3-person block...
**[05:51] Tana**
Not phased one bit, are you?
**[05:52] Bg**
Tsukishima!
**[05:54] Bg**
We're counting on you!
**[05:55] Sae**
All right.
**[05:56] Sae**
Now both Tobio and Kei are back.
**[05:57] Sae**
Now for the counterattack!
**[06:00] Swa**
We're gonna get through this!
**[06:02] All**
Yeah!
**[06:09] Tsuk**
I doubt you would, but you
don't need to hold back.
**[06:12] Kage**
If you don't think I'm going to,
then don't say it. And I won't.
**[06:20] Ush**
Shirabu.
**[06:21] Ush**
You remember our promise, don't you?
**[06:24] Ush**
* Will you be able to use me*
* mercilessly in any situation?*
**[06:31] Shir**
Yes!
**[06:33] Shim**
Serving toward the end while
being at a disadvantage...
**[06:35] Shim**
I really hate this!
**[06:37] Taki**
Come on, please! Make this...
**[06:39] Kei**
* Don't be on your guard!*
* Give it all you've got!*
**[06:42] Suga**
*Give it everything you've got, Asahi!*
**[06:46] Azu**
* To think that the fact that no one's*
* looking this way would be so reassuring...*
**[06:47] Tana**
All right! Bring it!
**[06:57] Leon**
Yes!
**[06:58] Coa**
Yes! Yes!
**[07:01] Ten**
Give it to me!
**[07:07] Sae**
Again?!
**[07:08] Ten**
Go! Wakatoshi-kun!
**[07:20] Kiyo**
His right hand!
**[07:23] Tsuk**
*This is so stupid...*
**[07:26] Tsuk**
*I'm not Hinata.*
**[07:29] Tsuk**
* To think that I actually want*
* to fight until the end...*
**[07:34] Tsuk**
One touch!
**[07:38] Iwa**
They managed to stop it again.
**[07:39] Oika**
What happened to Four-Eyes?
**[07:42] Oika**
At the first practice match,
**[07:45] ---**
I thought he was just a tall guy
that was slightly intelligent.
**[07:51] Asa**
Nice, Nishinoya!
**[07:53] Yama**
Chance ball!
**[07:56] Shir**
Ushijima-san!
**[07:57] Tsuk**
*Time difference from the right.*
**[07:58] Tsuk**
We're going to open it up!
**[08:01] Tsuk**
*Nishinoya-san's field of view.*
**[08:05] Sawa**
Nice receive!
**[08:06] Tana**
* I'm surprised he's able to make*
* these decisions so quickly*
**[08:08] ---**
*and still be able to instruct others.*
**[08:12] Tana**
Asahi-san!
**[08:14] Yama**
Tsutomu!
**[08:16] Yama**
Nice! Get the last!
**[08:19] Tsuki**
*One more time...*
**[08:22] Sawa**
*He's planning to hit it...*
**[08:23] Both**
*Ushiwaka three times in a row!*
**[08:32] Tsu**
*The top of the net...*
**[08:34] Kei**
Yes!
**[08:35] Take**
This is our chance!
**[08:36] Tana**
*My legs are so friggin' heavy...*
**[08:39] Tana**
*Don't give up, legs!*
**[08:42] All**
*I'm going to hit it!*
**[08:47] Hina**
*Tsukishima's doing a slide hit?!*
**[08:50] Ten**
*He's faking!*
**[08:52] Tsuk**
*He's figured me out...*
**[08:54] ---**
*But I managed to gain you a few seconds.*
**[09:05] Suga**
I-It's a break!
**[09:09] All**
All right!
***SIGN*** Shiratorizawa Karasuno
**[09:13] Yach**
We did it!
**[09:14] ---**
They're at a match point!
**[09:15] Shim**
One more point, and they'll
beat Shiratorizawa!
**[09:18] Sae**
I think they might just be able to do it!
**[09:19] Se**
We've been pushing them
ever since Kei came back!
**[09:22] Taki**
Go, Karasuno!
**[09:27] Oika**
I guess it's no surprise that
Shiratorizawa took a timeout.
**[09:31] Iwa**
Karasuno really is versatile.
**[09:33] Iwa**
I've never seen Glasses do a slide
hit... Even if he was just a decoy.
**[09:37] Oika**
We can't easily abandon a near
perfect time difference attack,
**[09:43] Oika**
and Shiratorizawa's not going
to change their style
**[09:45] ---**
of strengthening individual strengths.
**[09:47] Oik**
That's why we're called
powerhouse schools now.
**[09:50] Tana**
Who would've ever thought
you'd set us up like that!
**[09:51] Oika**
But Karasuno probably doesn't have
a style they need to protect.
**[09:53] Sawa**
I'm so happy, Tsukishima!
**[09:56] Oika**
They may have had one when
they were a powerhouse school.
**[09:56] Kei**
Hey, sit down and rest on the
bench, even for a moment.
**[10:00] Oika**
So they don't hesitate to try new things.
**[10:03] Oika**
They even gave up that miracle-like
quick immediately and made it new.
**[10:09] Oika**
The old and dependable Shiratorizawa...
**[10:12] Oika**
The new and reckless Karasuno...
**[10:15] Oika**
Either one of them winning
is going to piss me off,
**[10:17] Oika**
so they should both lose.
**[10:19] Iwa**
You really are a crappy guy.
**[10:20] Oika**
Could you stop calling me a "crappy guy"?!
**[10:24] Iwa**
Pick between that or a "shitty guy."
**[10:26] Oika**
Well, then I guess I choose "crappy"!
**[10:30] Bg**
Don't let up til the end!
**[10:30] Shima**
I'm sure all of their legs are
at their limits by now.
**[10:34] Shim**
It's obvious for Ushiwaka,
who's hit so many times,
**[10:38] Shim**
but for Karasuno's offense,
**[10:39] ---**
they've done starting runs more than spikes.
**[10:45] Shim**
That may look like a lot
of needless movement,
**[10:48] Shim**
but that's the primary factor
**[10:51] ---**
in how Karasuno's offense is prying
through Shiratorizawa's blocks.
**[10:56] Shim**
Since Tanaka, Azumane and Sawamura
have been playing the whole time,
**[11:00] Shim**
I'm sure they're beyond their limits by now.
**[11:03] Yama**
Nishinoya-san, are you okay?
**[11:05] Nish**
Yeah. I've been able to
rest here and there, so...
**[11:05] Kei**
*Ushijima's scored about 40 points.*
**[11:08] Kei**
* He was able to score almost*
* half the points all by himself.*
**[11:11] Kei**
*Despite being thoroughly marked,*
**[11:13] ---**
* and a lot of the tosses*
* being harder ones to hit...*
**[11:17] Kei**
*I knew that...*
**[11:18] ---**
*I knew that, but...*
**[11:20] Kei**
*Ushijima Wakatoshi is beyond impressive.*
**[11:25] Shir**
Ushijima-san.
**[11:26] Shir**
When you said to get tosses
up to you at any time,
**[11:30] Shir**
you meant that for while
you're still of use, right?
**[11:34] Semi**
Wha?! Hey, I don't know what's going
on, but how could you say that?
**[11:40] Ushi**
That's right.
**[11:45] Ushi**
Let's go.
**[11:46] Bg**
Fire it up, fire it up, Karasuno!
Get it, get it, Karasuno!
**[11:48] Sawa**
If volleyball was a one-on-one sport,
**[11:51] ---**
we wouldn't be able to win
against Shiratorizawa.
**[11:53] Sawa**
We're smaller, and our individual attack
strength falls short in comparison.
**[11:57] Sawa**
But there are six of us on the court.
**[11:59] Sawa**
If we win, it's not because
a miracle happened.
**[12:03] Sawa**
Our concept won't change until the very end!
**[12:06] Sawa**
We're going to punch our way through!
**[12:07] All**
Yeah!
**[12:10] Wash**
*We've done everything we can to this point.*
**[12:12] Kiyo**
Fight! Fight! Fight!
**[12:12] Kei**
*We've both used up all of our timeouts.*
**[12:15] Swa**
Let's end this thing!
**[12:15] Shir**
Let's calm down and score that point.

*The next time you leave that court...*

Yeah!

**[12:40] Sawa**
Nice serve, Asahi!
**[12:42] Taki**
Here comes that all-out serve again!
**[12:45] Shim**
End it here. End it with this one!
**[12:56] Taki**
Yes!
**[12:57] Yach**
They did—
**[12:58] Yama**
All right!
**[13:00] Guy**
Such a waste!
**[13:04] Azu**
Sorry!
**[13:05] Sawa**
Don't mind!
**[13:05] Azu**
*The serve toss was fine,*
**[13:07] ---**
* but I was a little careless*
* when stepping into the jump.*
**[13:10] Take**
And now,
**[13:12] Take**
Ushijima-kun is serving.
**[13:29] Ush**
Sorry.
**[13:30] Yama**
Don't mind!
**[13:32] Wash**
When we get back, you're
gonna be serving 100 times.
**[13:35] Taki**
Neither side has any intention
of putting their guard up.
**[13:38] Sae**
That's lucky for us, but also a waste.
**[13:41] Sae**
I mean, it's all for naught if they miss.
**[13:43] Shim**
But just by hitting
**[13:45] ---**
a powerful serve itself becomes
pressure for the other side.
**[13:47] Sae**
Huh?
**[13:49] Shm**
A jump serve is a very risky serve.
**[13:52] Shim**
But a serve that's done by chance,
or a serve that's guaranteed to go in...
**[13:55] Shim**
It's not about picking that,
**[13:57] ---**
but a team that's able to complete a
chance serve right now is a strong team.
**[14:01] Shim**
A team that's able to choose
to do a chance serve right now
**[14:04] Shim**
is a team that can become stronger.
**[14:06] Shim**
Of course, it's better if they don't miss,
**[14:08] ---**
and of course it's great
if the other side misses,
**[14:11] Shim**
but it's valuable just to take that chance,
**[14:15] Shim**
as long as they're concerned.
**[14:16] Both**
All right!
**[14:25] Gosh**
Leon-san!
**[14:27] Hin**
*Don't jump at it. Don't jump at it.*
**[14:29] Ten**
Gimme!
**[14:30] Shir**
Ushijima-san!
**[14:41] Hina**
*He's stopped!*
**[14:46] Take**
From above the block?!
**[14:47] All**
All right!
**[14:47] Bg**
Nice kill, Ushijima!
**[14:48] Kei**
That wasn't about height,
it was about timing.
**[14:50] Bg**
Ushijima! Ushijima!
**[14:51] Kei**
They jumped into that block a bit too early.
**[14:54] Kei**
I'm sure the fact that everyone is
so tired and panicked is a factor,
**[14:56] Kei**
but more importantly,
**[14:58] Kei**
there's Ushiwaka's mid-air form,
which makes it look
**[15:02] ---**
as though he's floating...
**[15:04] Kei**
If you have good form, it gives
you more of an advantage mid-air.
**[15:09] Sae**
What the hell?
**[15:12] Sae**
Does stress or being out of stamina
mean absolutely nothing to Ushiwaka?
**[15:19] Leo**
* He's definitely some kind*
* of monster or mutant,*
**[15:22] Leo**
*but the name we're the most satisfied with...*
**[15:29] Leo**
*is that he's a "super volleyball idiot."*

He's thinking.
**[17:22] Oika**
He just got shut down
on a deuce on the final set,
**[17:24] Oika**
and since he can't waste time being sad,
he's thinking about the next step.
**[17:28] Sawa**
Don't mind! We'll get the next one.

Right!

Looks like #10's legs are about done, too.
**[18:14] Hina**
You jerk!
**[18:16] Tana**
Forgive it, Hinata.
**[18:19] Sai**
At this point, Karasuno is basically
moving through sheer spirit.
**[18:22] Sai**
Wakatoshi's on the front line now,
**[18:24] Sai**
so this is our chance to break!
**[18:28] Shir**

Wow...

Thanks, Nishinoya!

Karasuno can depend on me!
**[19:26] Nish**
But... There are things

**[19:29] Nis**
I know I'm asking for the

but even if your thighs were to split open,
**[19:34] ---**

Go, Taichi!
**[20:43] Lev**
*Hear me out, Tsukki!*
**[20:45] (Flashback) Lev**
Kuroo-san yelled at me to read block again.
**[20:49] (Flashback) Lev**
But don't you think it
feels better to be able
**[20:51] (Flashback) ---**
to shut out your opponent,
whether it's by luck or intuition?
**[20:55] (Flashback) Tsuk**
That does feel good,
**[20:58] (Flashback) Tsuk**
but I hate the ball getting
through even more.
**[21:01] (Flashback) Tsuk**
If you go after the ball, even if
your reaction is slightly behind,
**[21:04] (Flashback) Tsuk**
the ball won't completely make it through.
**[21:08] (Flashback) Lev**
That sounds like something you'd say.
**[21:09] (Flashback) Kuro**
You probably think it's better
if you look cool, don't you?
**[21:13] (Flashback) Kuro**
You just don't get it.
**[21:15] (Flashback) ---**
This is the problem with you kids.
**[21:18] (Flashback) Lev**
We're only two years apart!
**[21:21] (Flashback) Kuro**
Listen up, brat!
**[21:22] (Flashback) Kuro**
Read blocking is a block that consists of
restraint and persistence, but it's also...
**[21:31] Kuro**
*The block where you laugh last.*
**[21:39] Tsuk**
One touch!
**[21:43] Yach**
It almost seems like Tsukishima-kun's
reacting faster than in the first half.
**[21:47] Old**
The point of read blocking against a
quick isn't always to stop the ball,
**[21:50] Old**
but to touch it.
**[21:53] Old**
Glasses kid has gotten through this
whole time just by following the ball.
**[21:58] Old**
It's no surprise that he's gotten used to it.
**[22:01] Kei**
Chance ball!
**[22:07] Tana**
*There's no other...*

*Back attack!*

**[23:57] Kage**
Hey, stop making your knees shake.
**[24:00] Hina**
They're doing that on their
own, so I don't have a choice!
**[24:02] Hina**
You jerk!
**[24:04] Kage**
You understand that since we came this far,
**[24:06] Hina**
we can't let them take this chance!

**[04:03] Wash**
*where they're closing in on a straight...*
**[04:07] (Flashback) Tsuk**
Whenever we do 3-person blocks,
**[04:09] (Flashback) Tsuk**
we always closed in on cross spikes,
**[04:11] (Flashback) Tsuk**
but on the last one, let's
close on a straight spike.
**[04:15] (Flashback) Tsuk**
It'll be a trap we set up
**[04:17] (Flashback) Tsuk**
for one whole set or more.
**[04:21] (Flashback) Tsuk**
Out of the dozens of three-person
blocks we've jumped today,
**[04:24] (Flashback) Tsuk**
we've always made a route for
the ball to escape through.
**[04:28] (Flashback) Tsuk**
We can't mess up this timing.
**[04:31] (Flashback) Tsuk**
We won't let it go above us.
**[04:34] (Flashback) Tsuk**
Ushiwaka knows that this is the one spot
where he can comfortably hit a straight.
**[04:49] Tsuk**
*Even when his form was crumbling...*
**[04:51] Hina**
*He changed it to a cross at the last second!*

Thank you very much!
**[08:59] Guy**
Talk about an upset.
**[09:10] Oik**
Damn it, why doesn't that bastard
Ushiwaka look more upset?
**[09:15] Kara**
Thank you very much!
**[09:24] Wsh**
Is Karasuno's #10 about as tall as I am?
**[09:28] Guy**
Huh? Yes, I believe so.
**[09:31] Wsh**
He'll probably continue to grow, though.
**[09:36] Wash**
The higher his goals get,
**[09:39] ---**
the more treacherous his path will be.
**[09:41] Azu**
Sorry, Hinata. We were trying
to close in on that straight
**[09:43] ---**
but we didn't make it in time...
**[09:45] Azu**
Are you okay?
**[09:46] Hina**
Totally fine!
**[09:47] Kage**
It's because the course was so narrow
that he was able to pick that up.
**[09:52] Ima**
Kageyama does good work.
**[09:55] Oika**
Did you notice it, too, Iwa-chan?
**[09:57] Oika**
Apparently when Four-Eyes came back,
**[10:00] ---**
he gave them some kind of
directions about blocking.
**[10:03] Oika**
Like closing in on Ushiwaka's straight.
**[10:08] Oika**
That's why after the serve,
**[10:10] Oika**
Tobio suddenly switched places with the
shrimp who was in the path of the cross,
**[10:14] Oika**
because Nishinoya-kun wasn't there.
**[10:17] Iwa**
And then he returned the
ball at the last moment.
**[10:20] ---**
Your student's not bad.
**[10:22] Oika**
He's not my student!
**[10:25] Oika**
And on top of everything,
**[10:27] Oika**
he was able to accommodate the shrimp,
who came here to do something different.
**[10:32] Oika**
It's painfully obvious.
**[10:35] Iwa**
Well... all of their good work only happened
**[10:39] ---**
because of the blocks of that
first-year with the glasses.
**[10:42] Oika**
But I guess the shrimp is a spiker
you end up wanting to toss to.
**[10:48] Oika**
No wonder he's got Tobio wrapped
around his little finger.
**[10:51] Oika**
Come on, let's go home.
**[10:53] Oika**
I'd rather die than see the awards ceremony.
**[10:57] Iwa**
You really are a crappy guy.
**[11:03] Sawa**

**[11:59] Leon**
Well...
**[12:01] Leon**
No one here thought we would lose...
**[12:29] Wash**
We'll have a meeting when we get back.
**[12:32] Wash**
Once the awards ceremony
is over, get onto the bus.
**[12:35] All**
Right.
**[12:39] Wash**
And you'll be hitting a hundred serves later.
**[12:53] Take**
Great job, you guys!
**[12:56] Take**
I'm...

**[13:00] Kei**

**[13:01] Kei**
Great job...
**[13:03] Kei**
Great job completing that
three-man block in the end.
**[13:06] (Flashback) Nish**
but even if your thighs were to split open,
**[13:08] (Flashback) Nish**
I'm counting on you guys
in the mid-air battles.
**[13:11] Sawa**
Well, I made a promise.
**[13:16] Kei**
Tsukishima!
**[13:18] Kei**
No matter what anyone says,
**[13:20] Kei**
you're the MVP today.
**[13:23] Tana**
I'm always the MVP, so I'll let you have
that title just for today, Tsukishima.
**[13:28] Kei**
You're definitely the mental MVP.
**[13:39] Ten**
Wakatoshi-kun, you got pissed
off in the end, didn't you?
**[13:44] Ten**
Usually, you'd regroup or leave that
to someone else in that situation.
**[13:50] Ten**
I got chills thinking they
might actually block it.
**[13:56] Ush**
I wanted to say, "I'm stronger than you."
**[14:03] Ush**
Is that childish of me?
**[14:05] ---**
But I still wanted to say it.
**[14:09] Ten**
Isn't what drives most
people childish in general?
**[14:14] Ten**
That was a great straight.
**[14:15] Ten**
It felt like I got to see a new
side to you, Wakatoshi-kun.
**[14:22] Ten**
I'm gonna quit volleyball after high school,
**[14:25] Ten**
but I'll be watching you on TV
**[14:28] ---**
and brag that we were best buds,
**[14:32] Ten**
so do your best.
**[14:34] Ush**
Yeah.
**[14:36] Ten**
When *Jonetsu Tairiku* makes
a documentary about you
**[14:38] Ten**
you totally have my permission to let
them interview me as an old comrade.
**[14:43] Ushi**

**[15:09] Kage**
I'll make you say that I'm
better than Oikawa-san!
**[15:32] Yama**
Tsukki, the awards ceremony is starting.
**[15:36] Yama**
Is something wrong?
**[15:37] Tsuki**
I said I would stop a handful of his spikes,
**[15:40] Tsuki**
but I was only able to stop one...
**[15:42] ---**
Even though there were five sets.
**[15:45] Tsuk**
Talk about lame—
**[15:48] Yama**
There's no way that you
were lame! Are you stupid?!
**[15:51] Tsuk**
Stupid—
**[15:52] Yama**

We're going to nationals!

Hey, so our volleyball team
is going to nationals?
**[18:18] Guy**
You guys didn't go to the match,
did you? It was awesome!
**[18:23] Girl**
Our boys' volleyball team was
a powerhouse to begin with.
**[18:26] Girl**
Really?
**[18:27] Guy**
There's a really scary third-year
on the volleyball team, isn't there?
**[18:30] Guy**
There's a second-year that
looks like a punk, isn't there?
**[18:33] Guy**
Are you really okay, Hinata?
**[18:34] Girl**
Their manager is so pretty!
**[18:37] Guy**
Seriously?
**[18:38] Girl**
Where are they holding nationals?
**[18:41] Hina**
The Tokyo... Metropolitan Gymnasium!
**[18:45] Guys**
That's awesome!
**[18:47] Hina**
I know, right?
**[18:50] Tsuk**
Looks like the idiot's got a huge head now.
**[18:52] Girl**
Are you going, too, Hinata?
**[18:53] Hina**
Of course!
**[18:54] Guy**
He's in charge of holding
the players' belongings,
**[18:56] Guy**
and like running errands
and doing their laundry.
**[18:59] Guy**
So he's an errand boy for the scary people.
**[19:01] Hina**
I'm going to be in the match!
**[19:03] Guy**
Really? Well, good luck.

Re: We won!!!
Congrats.
**[19:44] Hina**
The representative team from Tokyo
is just about to be decided, right?
**[19:48] En**
Yeah.
**[19:49] En**
I think for Tokyo, four schools get
decided in the first qualifier,
**[19:53] En**
and then I think the qualifier to decide
the representative is in November.
**[19:56] Tana**
I think that Nekoma and
Fukurodani both made it.
**[20:00] Nari**
It's amazing that they made it
into the top four schools in Tokyo.
**[20:04] En**
It makes me realize we went to a
training camp with some really crazy guys.
**[20:10] Hina**
We're gonna beat Nekoma!
**[20:12] Hina**
Right, Kageyama?
**[20:14] Kage**
That's if they make it
through the qualifiers.
**[20:18] Hina**
Of course they will!
**[20:25] Hina**
We're gonna play a match like there'll
never be another match again...
