[00:53] Hina
    I'll even be willing to make
    a wager, if you'd like.
[00:55] Kage
    Three curry buns.
[00:57] Hina
    Deal!
[01:02] Hina

    I'm 164.2 cm!
[03:28] Hina
    I've grown a whole 1.4 cm taller!
[03:30] Yama
    Wow, that's great.
[03:32] Hina
    What about you, Yamaguchi?
[03:35] Yama
    I've grown 5 millimeters
    and I'm now 180.0 cm!
[03:39] Hina
    You've gotten into the 180s!

    181 cm.

[03:55] Hina
    I grew a whole millimeter taller!
[03:58] Yama
    Wait, you actually remember
    everyone's height, Hinata?
[04:01] Enn
    I guess you're good at math
    when it comes to this, Hinata.
[04:05] Tsuki
    Having fun comparing shrimps and pipsqueaks?
[04:08] Tsuki
    Good work.
[04:10] Hina
    Tsukishima! You jerk!
[04:14] Yama
    Tsukki... Don't tell me...
[04:18] Yama
    That's amazing, Tsukki!
[04:20] Yama
    You finally surpassed 190!
[04:22] Tana
    I order you to shrink, Tsukishima!
[04:26] Yama
    Tsukki!
[04:26] Azu
    I wish I could get that excited
    about getting my height measured.
[04:27] Enn
    Wake up, Hinata!
[04:28] Kage
    The hell are you doing?!
[04:30] Sawa
    Hey! All of you pipe down!
SIGN    Faculty Room
[04:32] Teacher
    Takeda-sensei, you've got
    a call. It's on line 2.
[04:37] Take
    Yes, hello, this is Takeda.
[04:40] Take
    Oh, yes. Thank you for calling.
[04:44] Take
    Yes... Yes...
[04:45] Take
    What?
[04:56] Yachi
    Tsukishima-kun got 334 cm!
[04:59] Nishi
    Wow, that's the highest so far.
[05:02] Yama
    Great job, Tsukki!
[05:06] Guy A
    What are they doing?
[05:08] Guy B
    Apparently, they're measuring the highest point
[05:10] ---
    they can hit for the
    Spring Tournament pamphlet.
[05:12] Kiyo
    Next, Nishinoya.
[05:12] Guy A
    Wow... I guess they really
     are going to nationals.
[05:15] Guy
    Huh! They're jumping higher than me.
[05:18] Guy
    Nishinoya's only about 150 cm, right?
[05:20] Nishi
    I'm 160, damn it!
[05:23] Yachi
    302 centimeters.
[05:25] Kiyo
    Next, Kageyama.
[05:29] Kage
    Here I go.
[05:37] Yachi
    Um... 337 centimeters.
[05:42] Sawa
    Right now, Kageyama's at the top.
[05:45] Suga
    And there's only one remaining...
[05:48] Kiyo
    Next, Hinata.
[05:51] Hina
    Right!
[05:57] Yachi
    Everyone's being so
    competitive with Hinata...
[06:07] Guy
    Wha?!
[06:10] Kage
    How high was that?!
[06:11] Hina
    How many centimeters is it?!
[06:12] Yama
    Just wait!
[06:14] Yachi
    Let's see...
[06:18] Yachi
    333 cm!
[06:20] Kage
    Yes!
[06:22] Suga
    That's about the same as you, Asahi.
[06:25] Azu
    Damn it... I'm not gonna lose.
[06:26] Kage
    You owe me three curry buns.
[06:28] Azu
    He's increased 5 or 6 centimeters from before.
[06:32] Nishi
    I guess guys really aiming to
    go higher are different.
[06:35] Azu
    Higher?
[06:36] Nishi
    Well, when you're spiking,
[06:38] ---
    you're usually just trying to match
    your height with the ball, right?
[06:41] Nishi
    But Shoyo's absolutely positive
[06:44] ---
    that Kageyama will get the ball to him,
[06:48] Nishi
    so he's always trying to
    jump as high as he can.
[06:51] Nishi
    Form and the starting run...
[06:53] ---
    I think those are both important
    in increasing your jumping ability.
[06:59] Suga
    So you're saying that Kageyama's gradually
    making Hinata's jumps higher.
[07:01] Hina
    Next, let's battle with
    whoever gets the most blocks!
[07:03] Kage
    The loser buys the winner
    Gungun Yogurt for a week!
[07:05] Hina
    You're on!
[07:06] Take
    Is everyone here?
[07:08] Sawa
    Gather round!
[07:10] All
    Right!
[07:14] Sawa
    Good afternoon!
[07:15] All
    Good afternoon!
[07:16] Take
    Thank you all for your hard work.
[07:19] Take
    This is sudden, but I have some big news.
[07:23] Glasses
    Kageyama-kun.
[07:24] Kage
    Huh?
[07:25] Glasses
    You've been asked to attend the
     All-Japan Youth Training Camp!
[07:32] Dai
    All... Japan?!
[07:36] Yama
    Japan?!
[07:37] Both
    Holy crap!
[07:41] Yachi
    Youth... As in...
[07:44] ---
    The national representatives for
    Japan under the age of 19... right?
[07:48] Kiyo
    Yeah... Wow.
[07:50] Kiyo
    That's all... I can really say.
SIGN    Shiratorizawa Academy Wing Spiker
[07:54] Yama
    That's the same as Ushiwaka!
[07:57] Tsuki
    Ushiwaka managed to remain a
    representative until the end,
[08:00] Tana
    That's awesome, Kageyama!
[08:01] Tsuki
    but who knows if the King will
    actually last that long?
[08:02] Nishi
    All-Japan is like super cool!
[08:05] Enn
    If I remember correctly, it's from
    the players nominated today
[08:08] Enn
    that they'll pick Japan's actual under-19
    representatives two years from now.
[08:15] Enn
    To compete against the world.
[08:18] Enn
    They basically look for 15 and
    16-year-olds all around Japan
[08:20] ---
    to prepare for that selection in two years,
[08:23] Enn
    and select a tiny handful
    of the best of the best.
[08:27] Narita
    Just being invited to something
    like that is amazing.
[08:30] Kino
    I guess we've been practicing
    with some insane guys.
[08:34] Kino
    I mean, versus the world? They're
    on a totally different level.
[08:38] Kage
    Please stop.
[08:40] Take
    But the training camp is going to be held for
    five days at the beginning of December,
[08:44] Take
    and right before the Spring
    Tournament in January,
[08:47] Take
    so it's not a requirement to go.
[08:49] Take
    But...
[08:49] Sawa
    He should go.
[08:49] Kage
    I'll go.
[08:53] Sawa
    I mean, the best in Japan will be there.
[08:56] Sawa
    Not to mention,
[08:58] Sawa
    there's no point in a team
    like us being timid.
[09:05] Hina
    What about me?
[09:08] Tsuki
    Uh, we're talking All-Japan here.
[09:09] Tsuki
    All-Japan.
[09:12] Tsuki
    Representatives for all of Japan under 19.
[09:14] Tsuki
    Do you understand that?
[09:15] Hina
    Of course, I do!
[09:16] Take
    So... The only one who got
    an invite was Kageyama-kun.
[09:25] Suga
    Kageyama, make sure that
    when you get interviewed,
[09:28] Suga
    you tell them that your wonderful senpai
    named Sugawara showed you the ropes.
[09:33] Kage
    Right...
[09:34] Azu
    Stop trying to slip in suggestions.
[09:35] Tana
    No fair trying to get ahead, Suga-san!
[09:38] Azu
    Honestly, I'm wondering why they
    haven't invited Nishinoya.
[09:42] Suga
    True... But we are kinda biased.
[09:42] Nishi
    Don't let it get you down! Let's just
    keep practicing our asses off!
[09:46] Sawa
    Well, in cases like this, I'm sure
    they consider talent and potential,
[09:50] Sawa
    but I hear they look at how balanced
    a player is overall, too.
[09:54] Sawa
    There will be a lot of players
    meeting for the first time,
[09:56] Sawa
    so they probably consider how well
    they play with others, too.
[09:58] Sawa
    And for a libero, I mean...
[10:02] Sawa
    they'll probably invite someone
    who's a bit more mature...
[10:07] Azu
    Mature... Right.
[10:09] Suga
    I can't even argue with that.
[10:12] Take
    All right, listen up!
[10:14] Take
    I have one more piece of news.
[10:16] Take
    Also happening in the
    beginning of December...
[10:19] Take
    There will be a special training camp for
    promising rookies in Miyagi Prefecture.
[10:23] Take
    Coach Anabara from Johzenji High
    School just gave me a call.
[10:29] Take
    It's apparently an idea
[10:31] ---
    to try to level up Miyagi Prefecture's
    volleyball skills as a whole.
[10:37] Take
    This is apparently only
    open to first-years...
[10:40] Take
    It's basically a mock youth camp.
[10:43] Sawa
    A mock youth camp?
[10:45] Take
    One of our players has been invited.
[10:49] Take
    Tsukishima-kun.
[10:52] Yama
    That's so awesome, Tsukki!
[10:53] Yama
    You're one of the best
    first-years in the prefecture!

    A training camp?
[10:56] Suga
    I mean, Tsukishima was
    amazing in the finals!
[10:59] Tana
    What the hell? Why is it only first-years?
[11:02] Hina
    Sensei! What about me?!
[11:04] Take
    Um... Well, Tsukishima-kun was the
    only one invited to this one...
[11:10] Tsuki
    I mean, the Spring Tournament is right
    around the corner, so I'll pas—
[11:13] Sawa
    Do your best out there, Tsukishima!

    I mean... I couldn't have
    asked for anything better.
[19:29] Old
    Let me just say this.
[19:32] Old
    Without that setter, Kageyama,
[19:35] Old
    I can't say that I sense any worth in you.
[19:47] Old
    If you don't want to be a ball boy,
[19:49] Old
    you can go home at any time.
[19:55] Kei
    This might be far more difficult
    than Hinata realizes.
[20:16] Kage
    The floor's not hardwood?

    court shows up on that screen

    with a 6-second delay at all times.
[20:23] Guy
    Wow.

    I'm sure you're tired of us old guys talking,
[20:48] Hiba
    so I'll keep it short.
[20:50] Hiba
    "The Japan Team crumbles
    before height and strength."
[20:55] Hiba
    That phrase is pretty outdated now.
[20:58] Guy
    Skills and talents aren't meant to be had.
