SIGN    We Don't Need the Memories
[00:50] Guy
    Could the one to keep our eye on this match
[00:52] Guy
    be the one people are calling the
    top high school setter,
[00:55] Guy
    Inarizaki's Miya Atsumu?
[00:57] Guy
    Indeed. But we should keep our
    eyes on Karasuno's setter, as well.
SIGN    Tsubakihara (Kanagawa) Karasuno (Miyagi) Inarizaki (Hyogo)
[01:03] Guy
    Karasuno High School's Kageyama Tobio...
[01:06] Guy
    He's another skilled player who was invited
    to the All-Japan Youth Camp this year.
[01:10] Guy
    We're definitely seeing a setter battle
    between the East and the West!
[01:17] Hina
    That jump was really good!
[01:29] Hina
    I forgot to hit!
[01:31] Hina
    How could I waste an opportunity like that?!
[01:35] Tana/Atsu
    You don't need to be that depressed about it.
[01:39] Suga
    Isn't that the first time Hinata's been
    distracted by anything other than a toss
[01:43] Suga
    that went up?
[01:48] Kage
    If you ever do that again during a match,
     I'm never setting to you again.
[01:52] Kage
    You need to make sure you can do both.
[01:55] Kage
    You absolutely suck!
[01:56] Hina
    Got it!
[02:03] Kage
    Did something click with him
[02:07] ---
    after he saw the real deal?
[02:09] Kage
    But...
[02:11] Kage
    Even if he's able to make
    that boom jump a success,
[02:14] Kage
    I didn't expect Hinata's contact
    point to change that drastically.
[02:19] Kage
    This is going to throw us off.
[02:42] ---
    Haikyu!!
SIGN    We Don't Need the Memories
SIGN    Episode 14: Rhythm
[04:04] Suna
    I could care less if it's loud or quiet.
[04:11] Sawa
    That's place is hard to reach...
[04:13] Ann
    And the receive is a bit sloppy.
    Tanaka goes in for the last shot!
[04:14] Hina
    Got it! Tanaka-san!
[04:17] Osamu
    One touch!
[04:18] Cheer
    Free ball!
[04:21] Suna
    Got it!
[04:31] Ann
    Miya Atsumu sets the ball
    on the first touch!
[04:34] Ann
    Then Ojiro Aran smashes it over the net!
[04:38] Ann
    Karasuno High has completely
    stopped in their tracks!
SIGN    Aran
[04:42] Guy
    Nice kill, Aran!
[04:45] All
    Nice kill, Aran! Jump, jump, Aran!
SIGN    We Don't Need the Memories
[04:48] All
    One more time!
[04:48] Atsu
    Nice kill!
[04:50] Aran
    You scared the crap outta me!
[04:53] Ann
    Inarizaki's always breaking the mold.
[04:57] Sensei
    The ultimate challengers...
[05:01] Boku
    Aran's not bad, though I'm better!
     Right, Akaashi?
[05:05] Aka
    Yes.
[05:07] Aka
    Of course that was a very
    direct surprise attack,
[05:10] Aka
    but they were also trying to say,
[05:12] ---
    "We're not going to be overwhelmed by our
    first match. This is a piece of cake,"
[05:16] ---
    and put pressure on them.
[05:19] Aka
    I can keep calm while watching them play,
    but it'd suck playing against them.
[05:26] Hoshi
    Wow, they piss me off.
[05:33] Cheer
    Nice serve!
[05:39] Sawa
    Right at the whistle?!
[05:42] Sawa
    Sorry! That was a bit long!
[05:45] Osa
    He managed to rebound without turning around!
[05:47] Osa
    That was good!
[05:49] Nishi
    There!
[05:50] Take
    We're up against the ultimate challengers.
[05:53] Take
    But...
[05:59] Take
    We're just as much the challengers
[06:03] Take
    when it comes to volleyball.
[06:15] Ann
    Hinata Shoyo ran out and got the point!
[06:19] Ann
    That's the Karasuno first-year
    duo's famous slide attack!
[06:21] Kei
    All right!
[06:23] Team
    Yeah!
[06:26] Hoshi
    Huh?
[06:28] Hoshi
    Huh?!
[06:30] Boku
    Way to go, Hinata!
[06:34] Aka
    Absolutely terrifying.
[06:35] Aka
    Their first attack is always a killer.
[06:38] Hina
    Man, I almost ran into that
    guy with the scary face.
[06:42] Kage
    I almost fell for Hinata's feint, too.
[06:45] Guy
    Wow...
SIGN    Inarizaki Karasuno
[06:47] Guy
    What the heck was that crazy shot?!
[06:48] Guy
    It sure was crazy!
[06:49] Guy
    That's called a slide. You don't
    see that much in boys' volleyball.
[06:53] Guy
    Huh...
[06:55] Atsu
    So it's fast enough to break through a block...
[06:58] Atsu
    Yet they didn't sacrifice any height, either.
[07:02] Atsu
    How frickin' cool is that?!
[07:04] Atsu
    That thing's even cooler to see in person!
[07:08] Osamu
    What's your deal?
[07:08] ---
    You always mentally regress, like,
    five years when we're in a match.
[07:12] Atsu
    Shut yer trap!
SIGN    We Don't Need the Memories
[07:19] Guy
    It doesn't really seem like we're
    applying pressure to them...
[07:23] Guy
    That four-eyes earlier was
    basically smirkin' the whole time.
[07:27] Tsuki
    I mean, you can try to distract
    my serve all you want, but...
[07:31] Guy
    Should we switch things up early?
[07:33] Guy
    Yeah.
SIGN    We Don't Need the Memories
[07:38] Hina
    The whole team that placed
    second at the Inter-High
[07:41] Hina
    is giving it their all to beat us!
[07:45] Hina
    When it's my turn to serve...
[07:49] Hina
    It'll be hundreds of them versus me!
SIGN    We Don't Need the Memories
[08:12] Suga
    They're going faster and faster.
[08:22] Kage
    That serve toss wasn't the best.
[08:32] Kage
    His first step was perfect!
[08:36] Tana
    They're going into a quick from there?!
SIGN    We Don't Need the Memories
[08:40] Crowd
    Nice kill, Ren! Jump,
    jump, Ren! One more time!
[08:43] Boku
    Holy crap!
[08:45] Aka
    You can tell with one look...
[08:47] Aka
    His first step was as refined as it gets.
[08:49] Aka
    That quick and accurate first step
[08:52] Aka
    gives the setter time to set up and
    figure out where his teammates are,
[08:55] ---
    and gives them time to figure things out.
[08:57] Guy
    When the middle blocker scores the point,
    the middle scores right back.
[09:01] Guy
    Nice. Neither side is letting up.
[09:15] Shima
    Are they going to use every last bit
    of the eight seconds they have?
[09:28] Sawa
    Nishinoya!
[09:30] Nishi
    I was a half-step late!
[09:34] Tana
    Hell yeah!
[09:35] Both
    Nice, nice, Ryu! Push it, push it, Ryu!
[09:39] Band
    Cut them right off, Ina High!
[09:42] Girl
    Hey, Ryu-chan's not half bad.
[09:45] Kano
    Yeah. Their #10's feint was effective, too,
[09:49] Kano
    but he's got a good eye on
    the blockers and the floor.
[09:54] Kano
    He used to just smash the
    ball as hard as he could.
[09:57] Girl
    S-Sure.
[09:59] Girl
    She's staring way harder than I expected.
[10:13] Taki
    It's like that one thing...
[10:15] Taki
    Where people start syncing up their applause
    for, like, a long jump in track and field.
[10:20] Taki
    But it's way different
    when you start it yourself
[10:22] ---
    than when people just
    randomly start it for you.
[10:24] Taki
    Even if the crowd means well, it may just
    end up provoking Karasuno.
[10:35] Sawa
    Don't worry about it!
[10:36] Kei
    That's not good.
[10:38] Take
    Huh?
[10:39] Kei
    That rhythm that keeps getting faster.
[10:41] Kei
    That pressure isn't obvious, but before
    you know it, they're setting the rhythm.
[10:48] Kei
    I thought we'd just have
    to worry about the booing,
[10:51] ---
    but this is getting in the way, too.
[10:53] Kei
    First, we gotta be on par with our serves,
    or we're not gonna get anywhere.
[11:09] Aran
    Yeah!
SIGN    We Don't Need the Memories
[11:11] Crowd
    Nice serve, Aran!
SIGN    Inarizaki Karasuno
[11:14] Ann
    Inarizaki High's managed their second
    service ace already this match.
[11:14] Crowd
    Nice serve, Aran!
[11:16] Crowd
    Go, go, Aran! One more time!
[11:18] Ann
    The difference in their
    scores just keeps growing.
[11:33] Shima
    Inarizaki doesn't seem like
    they're established champions.
[11:36] Shima
    They still have the feel of a team of
    upstarts that are climbing their way up.
[11:41] Shima
    Then they've got their support...
[11:43] Shima
    Inarizaki's cheering section
[11:44] ---
    seems more like cover fire
    than just your usual support.
[11:47] Taki
    I see what you mean.
[11:50] Taki
    Both on and off the court...
[11:52] Taki
    They use sound and time
[11:55] Taki
    to expand Inarizaki's territory.
[12:04] Saeko
    Well, their team's cheer
    squad is hella impressive!
SIGN    Karasuno
SIGN    Karasuno Taiko
[12:13] Saeko
    Sorry to keep you boys waiting!
SIGN    Haikyu!!
SIGN    Haikyu!!
[12:30] Crowd
    Nice serve, Aran!
[12:33] Ann
    Inarizaki High's managed their second
    service ace already this match.
[12:34] Crowd
    Go, go, Aran! One more time!
SIGN    Inarizaki Karasuno
[12:37] Ann
    The difference in their
    scores just keeps growing.
[12:41] Boku
    What the heck? Inarizaki's
    already taken over the arena.
[12:45] Guy
    Atsumu... That first serve
    of yours was a bit off.
[12:50] Guy
    Did you let the cheering squad distract you?
[12:58] Girl
    If only you guys had beaten Nekoma,
     you'd be playing here, too, Suguru.

[13:02] Sugu
    Y-Yup, Mika-chan.
[13:13] Mika
    Wow, they're so cool!
[13:16] Sugu
    Talk about pressure...
    Glad I'm not playing against them.
SIGN    Karasuno Taiko
[13:28] Guy
    Hey, Japanese taiko drums.
[13:30] Guy
    That's awesome!
SIGN    Fly
[13:37] Hina
    It's Saeko-neesan!
[13:44] Hina
    Her awesomeness is lethal...
[13:46] Sawa
    That's definitely a new way to die.
[13:48] Take
    Thank goodness they made it in time.
[13:50] Kei
    Yeah...
[13:54] Shima
    You're late!
[13:56] Saeko
    My bad! We sorta got lost!
[13:59] Taki
    I just figured you were
    drinking until morning again.
[14:02] Saeko
    I mean, I was drinking until 5 AM,
     but we still left on time.
[14:07] Cheer
    Nice serve!
[14:15] Hina
    Yes!
[14:16] Tana
    Thanks!
[14:16] Mika
    Wow! He's so fast!
[14:19] Sugu
    The national tournament is scary!
[14:21] Suga
    Nice serve, Hinata!
[14:28] Shima
    It's always ideal to have it be
    silent when you're about to serve,
[14:31] Shima
    but I really want to stop them
    from taking over the rhythm!
[14:35] (Flashback) Taki
    It doesn't have to be loud
    enough to overpower them.
[14:39] (Flashback) Taki
    As long as we can get a rhythm besides
[14:41] (Flashback) ---
    what Inarizaki is playing
    into the server's ears...
[14:45] Saeko
    Let's go!
[14:50] Saeko
    That one time really pissed me off.
[14:59] Saeko
    But our job here isn't to beat
    the opponent's cheer squad.
[15:05] Saeko
    We might not even be able to give
    our boys the push they need.
[15:09] Saeko
    Because they're gonna keep
    moving forward on their own.
[15:12] Saeko
    So we just need to regain the
    balance in here a bit.
[15:24] Hinata
    I suddenly feel like...
    I can hit the best serve ever!
[15:29] Hoshi
    Despite all of Inarizaki's provocation...
[15:31] ---
    Karasuno's #10 isn't showing
    even a bit of panic.
[15:34] Hoshi
    It almost looks like he's smiling a little.
[15:37] Hoshi
    What kind of serve is he gonna do?
[15:39] ---
    A spike serve? A jump floater serve?
[15:45] Hoshi
    Or a completely normal one.
[15:46] Atsu
    Aran!
[15:47] Aran
    Got it!
[15:49] Tsuki
    A double quick...
[15:52] Hina
    A super quick one from the side...
[15:54] Hina
    Tsukishima's gonna close in that cross.
[16:11] Kiyo
    It hasn't touched the ground. It hit his foot.
[16:14] All
    The hell?!
[16:15] Mika
    Is that even allowed?
[16:17] Sugu
    According to the rules, yeah. It's just...
[16:20] Sugu
    Super embarrassing, probably.
[16:22] Guy
    It's that guy again!
[16:23] Guy
    Use your damn hands!
[16:25] Hina
    I totally missed!
[16:27] Nishi
    Great job getting to the ball, Shoyo!
[16:32] Hina
    I've gotta regain my dignity!
[16:38] Hina
    Back tempo!
[16:42] Tana
    Daichi-san!
SIGN    Fly
[16:45] Squad
    Nice, nice, Daichi! Push it,
    push it, Daichi! One more time!
[16:46] Ann
    Sawamura moves in from the right!
[16:50] Sawa
    Nice set!
[16:52] Hina
    I totally yelled, "Back tempo!" in my head!
[16:56] Ann
    I honestly thought the toss was going
    to Hinata Shoyo again!
[17:00] Ann
    Maybe Inarizaki is watching
     Hinata-kun a little too closely.
[17:03] Ann
    I can't say I blame them, though.
SIGN    Inarizaki Karasuno
[17:07] Ann
    Looks like Karasuno's getting
    back into a rhythm!
[17:10] Kage
    I thought he was totally going
    for Hinata, but he stopped.
[17:15] Guy
    He was trying to lure me in.
[17:18] Boku
    It totally looked like he was
    setting to Hinata just now, huh?!
[17:22] Aka
    Yes, it did.
[17:24] Aka
    Simple decoys won't work on read blockers.
[17:28] Aka
    But the first touch went up
    in the center of the court,
[17:32] Aka
    and it looked like he was setting
    to Hinata, but it went further right.
[17:36] Aka
    It's not just that Kageyama's got
    everything in his field of view.
[17:39] Aka
    He probably knows how his
    opponents are viewing him.
[17:42] Aka
    Also...
[17:42] Boku
    Hinata's so tiny, but he sure
    makes himself known on the court!
[17:49] Aka
    Indeed.
[17:51] Hina
    Man... That totally looked
    like it was for me.
[17:54] Hina
    You moron! Kageyama, you moron!
[17:58] Take
    Not only did they place second
    in the Inter-High,
[18:00] Take
    they also have that
    overpowering cheering squad.
[18:04] Take
    But we may have been overestimating
    them far more than necessary.
[18:09] Take
    It'll be okay. If we approach
    each problem one at a time,
[18:11] ---
    we'll be able to figure this out.
[18:14] Kiyo
    Yes.
SIGN    Inarizaki Karasuno
[18:15] Crowd
    Nice kill, Hitoshi! Nice kill, Hitoshi!
SIGN    We Don't Need the Memories
[18:20] Crowd
    Jump, jump, Hitoshi! One more time!
[18:26] Taki
    And there's the dual wielder again.
[18:28] Saeko
    What's that mean? Is he gonna use two balls?
[18:31] Shima
    No!
[18:33] Shima
    He can hit a spike serve
     or a jump float serve...
[18:35] Shima
    Basically, they won't know if they're
    gonna get Azumane's serve, Kageyama's serve,
[18:40] Shima
    or Tadashi's serve right up
    until he actually hits it.
[18:42] Saeko
    Ack!
[18:43] Taki
    And depending on which one it is,
    the positioning for receiving will be different.
[18:48] Taki
    If they're even a step off,
[18:50] Taki
    that delay can prove fatal when
    the serve comes in at over 100 km/h.
[18:57] (Flashback) Take
    Miya Atsumu-kun is a dual wielder
    when it comes to serving.
[18:59] (Flashback) Take
    Does that mean we won't know
[19:02] (Flashback) ---
    which serve is coming until
    he actually tosses the ball?
[19:04] (Flashback) Kei
    No, you can tell them apart.
[19:08] (Flashback) Kei
    Count his steps. When he's serving,
[19:11] (Flashback) ---
    he routinely measures his distance
    by the number of footsteps.
[19:14] (Flashback) Kei
    When he's going for a jump floater,
    he's four steps from the end line.
[19:17] (Flashback) Kei
    When he's going to do
    a spike serve, it'll be six steps.
[19:20] (Flashback) Kei
    That's how you'll be able to tell them apart.
[19:23] (Flashback) Azumane
    It'll make a huge difference if we
    can tell which one he's going for.
[19:26] (Flashback) Take
    They don't really show all the movements
    that go into doing a serve on TV, do they?
[19:31] (Flashback) Take
    I'm surprised you were able to figure that out!
[19:33] (Flashback) Kei
    I did a lot of research!
[19:35] (Flashback) Kei
    I looked at videos online and
    videos my buddies took, too.
[19:39] (Flashback) Team
    Thanks!
[19:49] Both
    That's four...
[19:50] Nishi
    A jump floater.
[19:52] All
    Bring it!
[19:56] Osamu
    You may have figured that out...
[20:00] Osamu
    but that's just the starting line.
[20:10] Yama
    It was only an instant!
[20:12] Kino
    And it ended up in his face!
[20:21] Ann
    Yet another service ace!
[20:21] Crowd
    Nice serve, Atsumu! Nice serve, Atsumu!
    Go, go, Atsumu! One more time!
[20:23] Ann
    Miya Atsumu has two incredibly
    powerful serves under his belt!
[20:29] Ann
    That was an excellent serve!
[20:32] Ann
    Powerful serves can make
     the team powerful, too.
[20:35] Ann
    If they don't cut this off soon,
    Karasuno is going to be in trouble.
SIGN    Inarizaki Karasuno
[20:39] Guy
    Damn, that serve was insane!
[20:41] Guy
    Wow...
[20:44] Sawa
    All right, guys.
[20:45] Sawa
    We've dealt with intense
    serves in the past, too.
