    You're in the way!
[00:43] Dai
    Nice, Tanaka!
[00:47] Nishi
    What'd you just say?
[00:56] Kage
    You were blocking the back
    row attacker's approach.
[01:01] Yachi
    Huh? W-Was he?
[01:05] Kiyo
    I'm not sure.
[01:06] Kiyo
    Everyone's moving on their own,
    so I couldn't really tell.
[01:17] Nishi
    Gotcha.
[01:23] Suga
    I didn't notice at all.
[01:26] Enn
    The fact that Kageyama realized
    that while they were playing
[01:28] Enn
    and the fact that Nishinoya realized it
     after he was told is pretty amazing.
[01:32] Yama
    I'm more amazed that he talked
    to Nishinoya-san like that...
[01:36] Tana
    You could've said it in a different way.
[01:40] Kage
    Like how?
[01:45] Tana
    The hell did you just say?
[01:47] Dai
    All right.
[01:48] Dai
    I'm gonna stop you right there.
[01:51] Dai
    Sorry about that.
[01:56] Kino
    I mean, Nishinoya under normal
    circumstances is one thing,
[01:59] ---
    but complaining to Nishinoya
    while they're playing is a first.
[02:02] Narita
    Kageyama sure is something.
[02:05] Yachi
    I'm not really sure what it is...
[02:10] Yachi
    but he seems scarier than usual...

[03:50] Kogane
    One touch!
[03:53] Girl
    Their blocking is on point today!
[03:55] Coach
    Yeah.
[03:56] Girl
    They've been pumped ever since they heard
    that they were going up against Karasuno!
[04:01] Coach
    Just a while ago,
[04:03] ---
    they'd get distracted by the spikers on
    the sides, so they'd spread out more,
[04:08] Coach
    but they're holding their
    ground in the middle.
[04:12] Dai
    Nice!
[04:16] Both
    Nice kill!
[04:19] Kage
    That should've been a good one.
[04:23] Kage
    The same as usual.
[04:25] Kei
    What?
[04:27] ---
    I hit it over.
[04:28] Kei
    If you have something to say, just say it.
[04:34] Suga
    You know full well you'd
     start fighting if he said it.
[04:38] Suga
    Or rather, if you actually think Kageyama
    can effectively put anything into words,
[04:42] ---
    you're greatly mistaken!
[04:44] Hina
    Exactly.
[04:46] Hina
    But I mean...
[04:48] Hina
    He always has an issue with tone
    or saying something unnecessary...
[04:54] Hina
    so it's weird that he isn't say anything.
[04:59] Nishi
    Kageyama!
[05:00] Kage
    Got it!
[05:04] Kage
    Tanaka-san!
[05:05] Kogane
    He really is like a machine.
[05:09] Kogane
    It's not like he had stable footing,
[05:11] ---
    and yet he managed a toss that's
    not too high, not too low,
[05:13] Kogane
    not too far, and not too close.
[05:17] Kogane
    How much has this guy practiced?
[05:20] Kogane
    I'm getting emotional!
[05:28] Tana
    Damn it! Sorry!
[05:30] Tana
    I'm sorry!
[05:31] Azu
    Don't worry about it!
[05:34] Keishin
    Maybe they're too worried
    about getting blocked.

[07:08] Tsuk
    Damn!
[07:12] Koga
    Nice kill!
[07:13] Kage
    You should've tried to block again.
[07:16] Kage
    You could've totally jumped again.
[07:20] Yama
    I'm pretty sure Tsukki realizes
    that without him saying anything...
[07:25] Tsuk
    Oh, what are you so irritated for?
[07:28] Tsuk
    Did the King miss his nap today?
[07:32] Kage
    What?
[07:34] Dai
    Hey!
[07:35] Hina
    Tsukishima doesn't usually have
    a problem listening to others,
[07:40] Hina
    but apparently that's not
    the case with Kageyama.
[07:41] Yama
    Yeah, it's not exactly logical.
    They just irritate each other.
[07:46] Kei
    Well, that's not good.
[07:47] Take
    Should we call a time out?
[07:49] Kei
    Nah.

    I know my tosses are good!

    Look at that. It's the return of the King.

    Match my tosses, if you want to win!
[09:34] Kage
    I'm sorry—
[09:34] Hina
    I've been thinking...
[09:36] Hina
    What's wrong with him
    being the King again?
[09:40] Hina
    Is it because he's too bossy?
[09:42] Hina
    Because he's too self-centered?
[09:45] Hina
    I mean, either way...
[09:47] Hina
    No matter what Kageyama says, if I don't
    like it, I'm just not gonna listen to him.
[09:56] Tana
    No matter what he says, I'm not gonna
    listen if I don't like his tone.
[10:00] Tsuki
    What he said.
[10:02] Suga
    Yet I still see Tanaka listening
    if it's addressed to him.
[10:06] Tana
    He's just strict when it comes to
    how his teammates are addressed.
[10:09] Dai
    Yeah.
[10:10] Azu
    I mean, I wouldn't mind
     if you'd speak nicer to me...
[10:15] Hina
    So no one really cares if
    you're the King or not.
[10:22] Hina
    I mean, the King is supposed to be cool.
[10:28] Kei
    Nothing beats a set that's
    easy for the spiker to hit.
[10:33] Kei
    And you find out what that
    is through communication.
[10:38] Kei
    But that doesn't mean you can't fight.
[10:43] (Flashback) Oikawa
    Are you giving the shrimp
     the exact tosses he wants?
[10:46] (Flashback) Oikawa
    Have you even tried to?
[10:49] (Flashback) Kage
    How was that toss, damn it?
[10:54] (Flashback) Chiga
    I think I could hit it faster.
[10:57] (Flashback) Kage
    Got it.
[10:59] (Flashback) Miya
    You're a Goody Two-Shoes, aren't ya?
[11:04] Azu
    Uh... Sorry about that, Kageyama.
[11:07] Azu
    I've been trying to time my hits
     so they don't match their blocks,
[11:12] Azu
    but it just hasn't been
    working against Date Tech.
[11:15] Azu
    Your tosses are great, though.
[11:17] Azu
    So keep doing what you're doing.
[11:19] Azu
    I'm probably gonna get caught by their
    blocks again, so I'll just apologize now.
[11:24] Azu
    My bad.
[11:25] Tana
    And I'm not gonna give up trying
    for that super sharp cut shot.
[11:28] Tana
    I mean, especially because we're
    practicing against Date Tech.
[11:31] Tana
    If you don't like it, that's your problem.
[11:34] Kage
    I can't make any promises.
[11:39] Tana
    Bring it on!
SIGN    Karasuno Date Tech
[11:44] Guy
    We're starting the second set!
[11:46] Take
    Are they fighting?
[11:49] Kei
    I mean, it's not like you fight
    because someone tells you to.
[11:54] Kei
    But you know...
[11:56] Kei
    If Kageyama's starting to
    say what he wants to say,
[11:59] Kei
    what about vice versa?
[12:04] Kei
    Kageyama's talent is extraordinary,
[12:06] Kei
    so the others might not know how
    to nitpick when it comes to him.
[12:10] Hina
    Hey! You're not attacking over
    the middle that much today!
[12:13] Hina
    You scared, Kageyama-kun?!
[12:15] Kage
    What?!
[12:15] Hina
    Go down the middle more!
[12:17] Yachi
    Actually, yeah. Compared
    to all the other games...
[12:20] Kiyo
    He's going there less.
[12:21] Take
    I guess we do have someone who nitpicks.
[12:27] Tana
    Nice save!
[12:30] Kage
    Let's experiment with one
    and a half ball widths...
[12:34] Tsuki
    That little...
[12:37] Both
    They didn't match up.
SIGN    Karasuno Date Tech
[12:43] Futa
    Are they really going to be okay like that?
[12:46] Futa
    Not like I actually care, but...
[12:48] Koga
    I guess even Kageyama misses sometimes.
[12:52] Kage
    Hey.
[12:56] Kage
    I'm not gonna stoop down to your level.
[12:59] Tsuki
    Oh, I see.
[13:00] Tsuki
    That's perfectly fine with me.
[13:06] Guy
    Kageyama does worry quite a bit at times.
[13:09] Guy
    It's not like he was saying
    anything that weird earlier.
[13:12] Yama
    Maybe he's still worried about
    what happened in junior high.
[13:17] Guy
    Though he doesn't seem like
    the type to dwell on the past.
[13:21] Guy
    People dwell on different things.
[13:24] Guy
    And for Kageyama, the thing
    that happened in junior high
[13:29] ---
    must weigh pretty heavy on him.
[13:32] Suga
    I mean, I don't know the details,
    but one thing's for certain...
[13:38] Suga
    Kageyama realizes that there's
    a chance he might be wrong.
[13:44] Suga
    And I think his teammates in junior high
[13:47] ---
    made him realize that after butting heads.
SIGN    Karasuno Date Tech

    One touch!

    Free ball!
[14:05] Hina
    He jumped!
[14:09] Kei
    Kageyama's been adjusting
    to accommodate the spikers' bad habits.
[14:14] Kei
    But now, he's decided to force them
    to hit from a higher contact point instead.
[14:25] Suga
    So close! But that sure was high!
SIGN    Karasuno Date Tech
[14:41] Kage
    So you can fly.

    Way to look smug, Kageyama.

[14:48] Yama
    Kageyama, stop egging Tsukki on!
[14:51] Tsuki
    Shut up, Yamaguchi.
[14:54] Hina
    "The setter's the most dominant role!
     It's the coolest!"
[15:02] (Flashback) Kage
    The setter is the team's control tower!
[15:04] (Flashback) Kage
    It's the setter that handles
    the ball the most in a match.
[15:08] (Flashback) Kage
    It's the most dominant role!
     It's the coolest!
[15:12] Hina
    We're not just gonna forget
    that you said all that.
[15:17] Hina
    No matter how much you try to
    act like a Goody Two-Shoes,

    you're a king deep down inside!
[15:22] Hina
    Prepare yourself...
[15:27] Hina
    From this day on shall be known as...
[15:30] Hina
    the new King of the Court!
[15:54] Kei
    Looks like he got over it.
[16:04] Kage
    I don't really know how others feel,
[16:08] Kage
    and apparently, I'm not the best with words.
[16:11] Hina
    We know, duh.
[16:12] Tsuki
    You're saying that now?
[16:14] Kage
    But...
[16:16] ---
    I'll do everything I can
    to become the best setter.
[16:20] Dai
    You're saying that now?
[16:24] Dai
    You've always been that.
[16:27] Tsuki
    Aw, apparently the King
     is a sweet little boy!
[16:31] Hina
    Come on, Tsukishima. Grow up.
[16:34] Yama
    Wow, Hinata just said that.
[16:36] Tana
    You're still mad about earlier, huh?
[16:38] Suga
    You should've guessed that.
[16:39] Nishi
    Guess read blocking!
[16:41] Enn
    Stop confusing things.
[16:45] Kage
    I can be a Goody Two-Shoes here...
[16:48] Kei
    It's normal not to know
    what others are thinking.
[16:53] Kei
    I mean, thinking about it is important,
[16:56] ---
    but I don't think it's absolutely
    necessary when playing.
[17:00] Kei
    You need to know the current state of
    the game and your teammates' conditions.
[17:14] Suga
    Hey, they're starting to match up way better.
SIGN    Karasuno Date Tech
[17:16] Yama
    Nice kill, Tsukki!
[17:19] Tsuki
    The longer Date Tech plays against us,
    the better their blocks get.
[17:24] Tsuki
    If my contact point was any lower,
    I would've been completely blocked.
[17:27] Guy
    Tsukishima's already huge, so I never
    thought his contact point was low,
[17:33] Guy
    but I guess he's able to hit even higher.
[17:35] Hina
    I knew it!
[17:37] Guy
    Though he looks like he's having a hard time.
[17:40] Hina
    When Kogane... Er, when Date Tech's
    setter was setting for him,
[17:44] ---
    he was hitting the ball about that high.
[17:46] Suga
    Huh...
[17:47] Hina
    Tsukishima, like... hits the
    ball really compact like, fabam!
[17:51] Hina
    With both his approach and his swing.
[17:53] Guy
    The middle blocker is all about fast attacks,
    so I guess that happens often.
[17:58] Suga
    The setter usually keeps that speed
    in mind and tosses lower, too.
[18:03] Hina
    But Kogane would end up
    setting too high a lot.
[18:07] (Flashback) Kogane
    Sorry!
[18:11] Hina
    So during the camp, Tsukishima naturally...
[18:14] ---
    Actually, he didn't have a choice.
[18:16] Hina
    It seemed like he was trying
    to match up with Kogane.
[18:19] Both
    Ah...
[18:20] Enn
    He must've been watching pretty intently.
[18:23] Suga
    Wow, that's some growth...
[18:25] Hina
    Yeah.
[18:26] Hina
    Kageyama's super amazing for
    being able to bring that out.
[18:30] Hina
    I'm not gonna let Tsukishima
    beat me in height, either.
[18:33] Suga
    Er... I meant you, too.
[18:37] Tana
    All right!
[18:40] Hina
    Nice kill!
[18:41] Tana
    Keep 'em comin'!
[18:43] Kage
    No.
[18:45] Kage
    Tanaka-san, you're getting sloppy.
[18:49] Kage
    If you're tired, we can sub you out.
[18:54] Tana
    Yeah... I'm pretty sure
    that Kageyama-kun thought
[18:57] ---
    he was looking out for me when he said that.
[19:00] Tana
    I get it. I do. But...
[19:03] Tana
    You're not subbing me out, dumbass!
[19:05] Tana
    However, I do admit that
    I flailed that last hit!
[19:08] Dai
    Wow, he's being honest.
[19:10] Azu
    Good boy.
[19:11] Dai
    Tanaka's not exactly exhausted,
[19:14] ---
    so we should use this chance to experiment
    with how to deal with this situation.
[19:19] Dai
    Even in a real game, we sub people
    out for a greater advantage,
[19:23] ---
    rather than to cover our weaknesses, right?
[19:26] Kage
    All right. In that case,
[19:27] ---
    I'll send fewer balls his way and
     keep an eye on his condition.
[19:30] Tana
    Could you just do that
    a bit more nonchalantly?
[19:33] Tana
    It's not like I'm going to
    agree with you saying that.
[19:37] Kage
    Nonchalantly?
[19:39] Kage
    I'll give it a try!
[19:41] Azu
    Hey, in my case,
    I'd prefer if you told me.
[19:44] Azu
    I'd be more shocked if I quietly
    realized you were setting less to me.

    That's fine. You don't need to spoil me.

    They're constantly evolving.
[20:00] Take
    But that evolution might
    not always be positive.
[20:05] Take
    But...
[20:06] Take
    As long as we have these
    second and third-years
[20:08] Take
    I think we'll be okay.
[20:11] Take
    The third-years always talk
[20:12] ---
    about how much they appreciate
    good first-years joining the team,

    Yeah.

    Nice!

    Kageyama!

    Sorry!

    You don't need to apologize there, Asahi-san!
[20:38] Azu
    Oh, uh, sorry.
[20:40] Kage
    We should've been able to cover.
[20:42] Azu
    Er, uh, sorry.
[20:44] Dai
    It's sorta funny seeing him get
    yelled at for apologizing.
[20:48] Dai
    Also, that's rare for Tanaka.
[20:50] Nishi
    Ryu's heated up, too.
[20:52] Nishi
    I feel like he stole one of my lines.

    Are we just ignoring the fact
