[00:54] Guy
    The quick attack of the first-years,
    Hinata and Kageyama!
[00:58] Guy
    We finally got to see it.
[01:00] Guy
    The height of the hitter who just
    scored, Hinata Shoyo, is 164 cm!
[01:05] Guy
    He's the shortest hitter out
    of our team lineups today!
[01:07] Guy
    Oh, man! That was so fast!
[01:10] Guy
    So cool!
SIGN    Karasuno Tsubakihara
[01:14] Miya
    Huh?
[01:16] Miya
    His expression's totally changed
    from the training camp.
[01:19] Miya
    Scary.

[02:59] (Flashback) Tashi
    There's a chance that Karasuno
    may never be as strong as they were.
[03:04] (Flashback) Tashi
    Even if it will be, I don't know
    how many years it might take.
[03:08] (Flashback) Tashi
    Even then...
[03:09] (Flashback) Tashi
    If the opportunity comes...
[03:15] Tanaka
    Daiichi-san!
[03:17] Sawa
    Yes!
[03:17] Tana
    Nice receive!
[03:18] Tashi
    Sawamura! You're so good now!
[03:22] Kuro
    Yeah.
[03:24] Tashi
    You're so...
[03:26] Kuro
    Sorry, I couldn't catch all that.
[03:32] Tera
    Don't just concentrate...
[03:33] Echi
    ...on their #10.
[03:38] Guy
    That was a beautiful dump that basically
    laughed in the face of their blocking!
[03:43] Guy
    Tsubakihara Academy was
    caught completely off guard!
[03:46] Tana
    Kageyama, you bastard!
    You son of a gun!
[03:48] Sawa
    You're so annoying!
[03:49] Hina
    Your personality sucks!
[03:50] Nishi
    You cheeky little...
[03:52] Azu
    Those were all insults!
[03:55] Kage
    I think the gelatin I ate
    earlier is giving me energy.
[03:59] Kage
    My stomach is in perfect shape right now.
[04:08] Sawa
    Step back!
[04:11] Shima
    He just served! The setter
    won't be able to...
[04:21] Guy
    He did it again!
SIGN    Karasuno Tsubakihara
[04:23] Guy
    The setter Kageyama managed
    to flow right into that set!
[04:26] Kage
    Hinata!
[04:26] Guy
    Kageyama-kun is a first-year who was invited
    to the All-Japan Youth Training Camp.
[04:28] Kage
    Their blocker on the right side was late
    getting there! Hit it that way!
[04:31] Hina
    You would've run me over
    then! I would've died!
[04:34] Guy
    Er... They seem to be arguing
    about something...
[04:35] Kage
    Then dodge me!
     That's, like, your one talent!
[04:37] Guy
    I wonder if they'll be okay.
[04:38] Hina
    What?!
[04:38] Tana
    Kageyama, serve, damn it!
[04:40] Tashi
    Man... They've got someone insane.
[04:43] Kuro
    Yes.
[04:44] Take
    He's gifted with this much technique,
    instinct, and passion...
[04:49] Take
    Perhaps it's because of that passion,
    but he didn't stand out much.

[05:12] Guy
    We didn't come here to stop their #10.
[05:15] Guy
    We came here to win.
[05:17] Guy
    The moment we're stuck focusing on their #10
     is the moment we're stuck in their trap.
[05:23] Guy
    Just keep doing your read blocking.
    That'll keep the pressure on them.
[05:27] Team
    Right!
[05:29] Guy
    There's no reason to panic.
[05:31] Guy
    There's no need to do what we can't do.
[05:33] Guy
    Bump the ball and attack. It's that simple.
[05:37] Guy
    Just fight the way you always do.
[05:39] All
    Right!
[05:41] Guy
    All right! Let's turn the tide
    on this "Go, go, Karasuno" mood!

    We came here...

    They got one in!
SIGN    Even the Smallest Stream Can Become a Great River Tsubakihara Academy Volleyball Club
[06:10] Guy
    Tsubakihara smashes that one
    with their classic move!
[06:12] Guy
    The set from Echigo to Teradomari!
[06:13] All
    Yeah!
[06:16] Guy
    Nice kill!
SIGN    Karasuno Tsubakihara
[06:19] Guy
    All right! Their #10's in the back now!
[06:22] Echi
    I mean, I do feel better that
    their #10 is in the back row,
[06:25] Echi
    but things still sorta suck for me.
[06:29] Echi
    Because now this persistent guy,
[06:30] ---
    who was even able to
    block Ushiwaka, is up front.
[06:41] Tsuki
    One touch!
[06:43] Azu
    Daichi, get the last!
[06:47] Tsuki
    One touch!
[06:48] Azu
    Free ball!
[06:52] Tera
    Nice, Maiko!
[06:53] Guy
    What an intense rally!
[06:55] Guy
    Both teams have completely loosened up now!
[06:59] Echi
    Tera!
[07:00] Maru
    Three blockers!
[07:02] Tsuki
    #4, Teradomari.
[07:04] Tsuki
    He's got way more height and power than
    you'd expect from a high-schooler...
[07:06] Tsuki
    But he tends to use cross
    shots over anything else.
[07:09] Tsuki
    Ready, and...
[07:11] Tera
    Don't underestimate me!
[07:14] Tsuki
    A line shot?!
[07:22] Hina
    I moved too far forward!
[07:24] Sawa
    Nice save!
[07:25] Tana
    Asahi-san!
[07:29] Both
    Yes!
SIGN    Karasuno Tsubakihara
[07:32] Yama
    Man...
[07:33] Yama
    I'm can't tell if Hinata has really
    good luck or really bad luck...
[07:37] Nishi
    Nope. Shoyo actually meant
    to be there right now.
[07:44] Tsuki
    An attack from the back line!
[07:49] Tsuki
    A dink?
[07:58] Hina
    I moved too far forward again!
[08:04] (Flashback) Guy
    Get the last hit over, Tanaka!
[08:07] (Flashback) Guy
    Out!
[08:09] (Flashback) Guy
    Don't just hit the ball as hard
     as you can every time, Tanaka!
[08:12] (Flashback) Tana
    Okay.
[08:14] (Flashback) Suga
    He's still trying out, but he's
    already showing he doesn't care.
[08:16] (Flashback) Sawa
    He's got good instincts, though.
[08:18] (Flashback) Azu
    He's joining our team?
[08:28] Tashi
    He hits the ball back
     to the perfect spot.
[08:30] Tashi
    He sure is paying attention.
[08:34] Maru
    Echigo, get the last!
[08:39] Guy
    The setter, Kageyama, gets the first touch.
[08:42] Guy
    They limited the possible attacks by having
     Karasuno's setter receive the ball.
[08:45] Sawa
    Tsukishima!
[08:46] Tsuki
    Right!
[08:47] Azu
    Left!
[08:47] Tsuki
    Azumane-san!
[08:49] Suga
    Tsukishima's able to pull off anything,
    even if he's not the best at it.
[08:53] Suga
    But even if this set is a bit clumsy...
[08:57] Suga
    It's still full of care!
[09:00] (Flashback) Tsuki
    Get the last!
[09:03] (Flashback) Goshi
    The toss is too low! It's too sloppy!
[09:08] Azu
    Wow... I'm kinda moved...
[09:12] Sawa
    Three blockers!
[09:17] All
    All right!
[09:19] Guy
    #3 Azumane smashed the ball
    off three blockers!
SIGN    Karasuno Tsubakihara
[09:22] Guy
    Karasuno manages to get
    two consecutive points!
[09:26] Tashi
    Azumane... I guess it's not just
    your looks that got better!
[09:32] Kuro
    Yeah.
[09:34] Azu
    Tsukishima! Nice toss!
[09:36] Tsuki
    Uh, thanks.
[09:38] Tsuki
    It's still really hard to get
    an idea of distance here.
[09:41] Tsuki
    To be honest, that was half luck.
[09:48] Tsuki
    Could you not react the exact
    same way Hinata would?
[09:52] Kage
    What?!
SIGN    Even the Smallest Stream Can Become a Great RiverTsubakihara Academy Volleyball Club
[09:53] Crowd
    Man, is their #10 a pro at
    body slams, or something?
[09:57] ---
    Use your hands!
[10:03] Sawa
    He's not just relying on his
    usual animal instincts...
[10:10] Sawa
    He was actually reading.
[10:14] Hina
    Right...
[10:16] Hina
    Even if it's not a powerful hit, it doesn't
    mean they're just gonna drop it up front.
[10:31] Yama
    Nice deflect!
[10:32] Tana
    Free ball!
[10:35] Suga
    Get them, Hinata!
[10:37] Suga
    Back minus tempo!

    is incredibly fast. Hinata Shoyo!

    Don't panic! Let's cut them off!
[10:51] Guy
    Right!
[10:52] Guy
    Damn it!
[10:55] Echi
    No worries. We're getting to the ball.
[10:57] Maru
    Let's keep our eyes on their blocks!
[10:59] Guy
    Karasuno's tiny #10 looks like
    he's stopped in midair.
[11:03] Guy 2
    He sucks at receiving, but
    he's damn good at attacking.
[11:06] Enn
    Sugawara-san, what's a back minus tempo?
[11:10] Suga
    It's Hinata and Kageyama's minus
    tempo attack from the back line.
[11:14] Suga
    Sounds cool, right? Am I right?
[11:17] Nishi
    How about adding "thunder" at the end!?!
[11:20] Suga
    But then it'd just sound like one of
    your special techniques, Nishinoya.
[11:24] Kage
    Hey.
[11:26] Kage
    You'd better not mess up the serve
    once we finish our timeout.

    Of course I won't.

[12:09] Kino
    I mean, I thought I managed to hit it
    way calmer than I thought I'd be...
[12:14] Kino
    And I managed to hit it in
    the direction I meant to.

    That wasn't so bad for me...

    Uh, isn't that a bit mean?

    More importantly, our serves the

    I know! Sorry, okay?

    receive was a bit shaky.
[20:48] Guy
    They aimed right for where the
    setter would have to get the ball.
[20:51] Echi
    Tera!
[20:52] Suga
    #4 Teradomari.
[20:55] Suga
    He's got both height and power.
[20:56] Suga
    He usually hits exactly where it
    looks like his body's going to hit.
[21:01] Azu
    Sorry, someone follow up!
[21:02] Suga
    Tanaka!
[21:03] Kage
    That was perfect!
[21:05] Guys
    Nice receive!
[21:07] Tana
    Damn it! That was a weak-ass spike!
[21:14] Maiko
    Maru-san!
[21:14] Tana
    Left! Left!
[21:15] Echi
    Three blockers!
[21:16] Suga
    #1 Maruyama.
[21:18] Guy
    And that ball definitely went
    flying off the blocker's hands!
[21:20] Guy
    But...
[21:21] Guy
    There's Sugawara!
[21:24] Suga
    #1 Maruyama.
[21:26] Suga
    He's good at wipes, but there's always
    the possibility he'll go for a dink.
[21:32] (Flashback) Sawa
    After I saw Karasuno play at nationals,
    I decided to come to Karasuno!
[21:37] (Flashback) All
    Thank you for having us!
[21:41] (Flashback) Tashi
    Even then...
[21:43] (Flashback) Tashi
    If the opportunity comes...
[21:44] (Flashback) Tashi
    Make sure you grab it!
[21:48] All
    Go!
[21:50] All
    Stop them!
[21:57] Tashi
    Opportunities...
[22:00] Tashi
    present themselves to
    those who have prepared.
[22:13] ---
    All right!
