"I can't tell if Tsukki was impressed or annoyed."
Yes.
The answer is 'Yes.'
Yes.
just "yes" lol
Yes.
Just a heads up, in the next episode there will be a good amount of time where the twins won't have their hair dyed because it will be a flashback. During those scenes I would recommend looking at their eyes, as Atsumu has brown eyes and Osamu has grey ones. It can be a little hard to tell who is who during those scenes so don't worry if you get confused :)
Thanks for the heads up!
@@ElevateYourselfOfficial no worries, it’s one of my favourite episodes tbh so I can’t wait :)
and hair orientation, Osamu styles his hair to the left while Atsumu styles his to the right
And their voices are different if that helps :)
Also.... they talk about each other by name 😅
Kita is one of those characters that the author themselves actually didn't expect to become as important and impactful as he did. His presence, especially considering the relatively little amount of screen time, is incredible, and he's definitely become one of my role models - basically, I am trying to live a life in a way that would not disappoint Kita Shinsuke :"D
Interesting how the author is surprised by the character development of his/her own creation
Kita is one of the characters i strive to be. everything he does is normal and he make great points, especially about getting nervous while playing games. I play sports most of my time and feeling nervous hinders my full potential and it sucks
@@ElevateYourselfOfficial gotta understand that japanese manga is serialized weekly and most of the authors only has an outline of the story. they often create characters on a whim and let them develop as the story progresses since they dont know if they will still be serialized after a few weeks.
a popular example of this is Oda's One Piece, the best selling manga of all time that just surpassed 500 Million copies sold. He created 7 characters over night to spice up the story that became so interesting it ended up derailing his manga by atleast 10 years. still, those were some great characters.
manga publishers in japan has serialization meetings about 4 times a year to determine which series to cancel and which new ones to publish. its a harsh world. so authors always has to comeup with something interesting week by week to keep the readers interested.
16-19 pages a week is no joke lol
I definitely love Shinsuke, he's totally someone that I'd like to be similar, just focused on the process and what you do everyday, the results being just byproducts, I've struggled my whole life to have this kind of mindset, but he definitely gives me hope to be able to be like that one day.
@@GabrielSouza-ie1tt "I am built upon the small things I do everyday" is an incredible quote and Kita is a great role model.
"who knew osamu could set?" 😭😭 coach hed been always good at setting.. hed been doing that from the beginning
He even sets in the first episode we meet him in. 😂
little Samu even set better that little Tsumu 😭
He might realize this and more next episode
Them being identical twins is really working on him. He legits keep forgetting who is who which is fun to see
The fox reference ins because of the name of the schools. So Karasuno is the crow because Karasu (烏) means crow. Nekoma is the cat because Neko (猫) means cat. Fukuroudani is the owl because Fukurou (梟) means owl. And Inarizaki are foxes because Inari (稲荷) means fox (actually it's the name of a Japanese god, but it's said that foxes are Inari's messengers and so they are often referred to as Inari as well), so that's why Inarizaki is represented by foxes
Most of Inarizaki are named after subspecies of foxes. The Miya twins are the exceptions with their family name meaning "shrine", referencing shrines of the fox deity known as Inari.
@@kevintbjorn now that's something interesting I didn't know. Nice piece of trivia
By the way, the very instagram famous "1000 torii gate" shrine in Kyoto is a shrine to the Inari god.
It's called Fushimi Inari
It doesn’t show it because some of the manga content got cut out, but Kita’s grandma is in the stands watching her grandson play.
Wow you spontaneously made me want to cry after reminding me of that. I had forgotten that detail 😭😭 I've gotta re-read the manga again some time
Do you know what chapter this is in?
@@californiapenguin9434 i forget, i’m sorry
@@californiapenguin9434 last page of chapter 274
I love the fact that Kita is a favorite player of Yanagida, a former captain of Japanese men's national team.
Yep. And Inarizaki is his favorite team. I hope JVA brings him back to the NT though.
@@yuugaouzuki18 He also mentioned that the game against Inarizaki reminds him his game against Itiritsu-Amagasaki High school, one of the top contenders at the year, in the Spring Tournament 2009.
It only makes sense since Yanagida was mostly a substitute just like Kita
Don’t know if coach realizes that, the fact that everyone is so hyped or surprised after azumane encouraged nishinoya is because when azumane was depressed by aone’s blocks, nishinoya said sth similar to azumane. It shows how azumane growths after all these matches they have.
oh thank god, you explained the different pass.
The reason Anone isnt in the the visual( Ritaro memory) is because Date never made it to Nationals, So Rintarō Suno never met him. Shiratorizawa made it every year from their region, You can see the zombie middle blocker (Tendou) in the top right 38:14 .
Hey coach!
You said you wanted to see the story behind Shinsuke becoming captain. That backstory was the moment. He worked his rituals and routines, year after year, and like his grandma said “someone is always watching.”
The coach was watching him the whole time and then it skipped to the senior year team assignment. He was chosen as No. 1 the captain, that’s why he broke down in tears.
Here comes Kita, the character that made a huge impact on my life and the every Asian parent want to have!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣😂🤣
Truuuue
He's the perfect child for every Asian parent 😂
I'm glad Kita isn't real my mom would disown me for him 😂
16:15 Kita Crying
I think the main reason it was a big deal for Shinsuke Kita getting his uniform was because it was the Captain's uniform. Up until his 3rd Year he isn't even part of the main team, more like a bench and didn't even get a single uniform up to that point. His grandma saying just do your best all the time someone's always watching. And we see the Inarizaki's coach observing him throughout the episode and finally given a jersey not only any jersey that prove he can now play on official matches but the #1 which means he will lead the team from now on.
My favorite character is here. Kita is a real leader and eminently coachable. Delightful reaction.
For 16:05, Kita was only made captain this same year that he's playing in right now.
And it was the first year he’s gotten on the roster and got a kit period.
About Tsukki the Weirdo Quick Killer: "weirdo quick" (or "freak quick") is the unofficial name Karasuno uses for Hinata's and Kageyama's insanely quick combination. It actually started with Tsukki calling it a "freak set and spike" during the very first scrimmage against Aobajousai, and then Ukai also asked whether Hinata and Kageyama are "freaks" when he first saw them do the combo with Hinata's eyes still closed x)
Very vague but still !!!spoiler-ish!!! thoughts ahead, so beware: the Coach talking about developing a culture where any player (including bench players) feels like they can contribute to the team's success while pausing on an exchange between Kinoshita and Nishinoya feels so satisfying~~~
hellll yeeaaaaaa
Plus the fact that Tsukki somehow hate the weirdo quick and is the player who has the best chance to stop it since he is the one who see it the most and probably blocked it the most because he is in the same team.
28:10 - One thing to point out Coach- Atsumu was not the one that hit his serve to the back wall. That was his brother Osamu.
Also, the third set is to 25 points!
My boy Kita! I love this episode.
😄
*Our* boy 😂
Rintaro was basically have the same mindset with aone that thought every block must be a kill block because it will be demoralish the hitter , meanwhile tsukki was taught by nekoma captain during the spring training that the most annoying block was the one who always touch the ball no matter it was a killblock or just one touch thats make tsukki always do read block and almost never do guess block , thats why rintaro think kageyama was scarier as a blocker than tsukki because that solo kill block by kageyama
I loved the fact that you were asking "Were is Aone" in the manga they explain that Date Tech haven't been in the nationals's for a long time.
The most of the blocker's in Rintaro flashbacks are non relevant, except one, in the back you can see our favorite guess monster Tendou, which is logical, Inarizaki and Shiratorizawa are two powerhouses, so the might have faced each other's frecuently in the inter high and in the spring tournament
Spoiler for anime only
Luckly they make it next year.
@@trelos7431 yes, first time in 11 years though
Tendou and Suna’s rivalry is mutual, considering Suna thinks Tendou’s blocks are scary, while the latter has been caught off guard by Suna’s flexibility and angle spikes more than once. In the manga Tendou also says that he’s annoyed by Suna and Miyatwins the most.
@@NaCl1572 I'd have loved to see a Tendou-Suna-Tsukki banter
i ALWAYS waiting for ur reaction.. eventho i already watch a bunch of other people reaction, ur vid surely hit different for me. and also, u r a professional volleyball player so i really wanna know ur thought about each episode! keep ur work coach donny!
Thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoy my reactions!!
Kita wasn't selected to play for years. He trained and trained methodically, tirelessly for years without ever even getting kit. So when he finally built himself to the point where he wasn't passed over anymore, it hit him really hard.
This episode is hands down my absolute favourite of this season! I admire Kita so much. With his 18 years, he‘s already such a wise and mature character. “The results are only the byproduct of the process.“ This is such a great life lesson which we should all keep in mind. I wish someone would‘ve told me this when I was a child or in my teenage years. Especially me who grew up in a strict Asian household where, especially in academics, only results mattered. I‘ve often been pressured in achieving the best results. It’s sad that I learned such an impactful wisdom from a 2d Anime character instead from real life people. Kita is truly an awesome and inspiring character and his philosophy was really mind changing! He inspired me to do even the smallest tasks with integrity because in the end, they matter.
23:55 the name Inarizaki has "Inari" in it which is the name of a japanese god and foxes are his messengers so they are often referred to as "Inari" as well. Most of the schools have animal names: Karasuno - Raven (Karasu), Nekoma - Cat (Neko), Fukurodani - Owls (Fukurou), Shiratorizawa - Eagle (Shira - white, tori - bird)
I love Rintarou's comment at the end: "a block that's not scary isn't actually a block", indicating that he finds stuff blocks the only type of block worth caring about. He finds Kageyama's stuff block more challenging than Tsukki's soft blocks, which can say a lot about Rintarou's mindset.
Without spoiling anything, Coach I'd recommend paying careful attention to how Rintaro and Aran talk about the mechanics of the game. Rintaro's assessment of Tsukki up to now is that Tsukki is basically scared. Most middle blockers would react to a hitter like Rintaro by adjusting the block and trying to go for those lower angles the way you were saying Kageyama did with blocking Aran. But Tsukki keeps doing the same thing, going up straight, and giving Rintaro an "easy" block to get around. So at the end, he's saying that compared to Tsukki, Kageyama is a much "scarier" block, a block that Rintaro and others have to respect because it can kill if you're not careful. But as we know with Tsukki, thanks to his mentor Kuroo, the best block is the block that laughs last. I'll say to keep following that dichotomy going into the rest of the series.
editor: "just you wait coach"
us: 😭 sobbing uncontrolably 😭
To be completely honest, I usually skip the "this video is sponsored by *insert ad here*" part of any YT video. But Coach's half time ad is so enjoyable I cannot begin to explain it.
Hahaha I'm glad you enjoy it!!
Shinsuke is definitely my favorite non-Karasuno character, his total focus on habits, process and what he does everyday is just inspiring, I feel like I think too much about results and about the future that I forget the present and forget that what I do now will create my tomorrow, so there's no need to be so scared about is yet to come, I just need to put my total focus on what I do today. And that phrase his Grandma tells him just makes me tear up everytime "there's always someone watching" man.. this is so deep and I don't even know why (😂).
Great reaction as always Coach!
I atrive to be like him too.
Suga + Daichi = Kita is what we all love about him, and Aran is his Asahi.
I swear, when coach gave that pause when seeing the grocery bag, it looked like he was about to cry. I certainly did when I first read that panel.
Whenever I hear Coach talk aabout his team I just wish I could be coached by him. He seems like an awesome coach
Htg
18:06 if you notice throughout the anime, almost all the captains wear the number 1 on their jersey (Daichi, Kuroo, Oikawa, Ushijima, Kita). The only ones to my knowledge who don’t are Futakuchi (Date Tech captain), who wears the number 2 and Bokuto, who wears the number 4.
Bokuto isn't captain though? Is he? That would be ridiculous. Akashi should be captain the way everybody relies on him to keep Bokuto stable.
Edit: oh shit Bokuto is captain ☠
@@sindri1447 don't worry, bokuto only got the title because the team wanted to feed his ego, but everyone in fukurodani knows that akashi is the boss 😆
The little bits of dialogue and exposition between Suguru and Mika are some of the best parts of the tournament imo. Really watcher/reader-friendly, easy to digest, and very wholesome.
I do miss the other couple that commented on all of nationals though, a mini story about how karasuno inspired them to take up volleyball again as adults.
I think it speaks volumes that Inarizaki was even willing to sub out their ace (literally one of the top 5 aces in Japan at this time) to shore up their defensive backbone, both on the court and in the minds of the players. Kita is such an amazing chaeacter
"Switching Aran w/ Kita"
A common tactic in volleyball, especially if your best spiker is being targeted is to sub them out even if your team will drag the game into 3 sets. It is better to rest him for the final set.
Plus putting Kita (captain) in makes it certain that the rest of Inarizaki won't slack off so its two bird with one stone
38:25 yup, remember that Aone is a first year in Datekou and they didn't qualify for Nationals yet (they lost against Karasuno in Season 1 and against Seijoh in Season 2 so they lost their chance this year), Rintarou is a second year frrom a different region in Japan, so they can only meet in a match if both teams qualify for Nationals (unless you are like Nekoma and Karasuno that have practice matches between them)
Aone is actually a second year. same year as Rintarou..
Not that it's very important, but Aone is a second-year. Your overall point is still good though.
Kita is my inspiration for real I struggle so hard with routine and his methodical life is just amazing. "Why are you nervous? It's just as you practiced"
I absolutely adore Kita to bits. Like ..an instant favourite for me. It's amazing that i can love these characters we've been with so much but Kita comes out of nowhere and just blows me away.
Honestly, Kita is one of my top 5 characters in all of haikyuu
He honestly could be in everyone's top 5. He is that one character you can't help but respect and feel for. Plus he speaks a lot of facts. That scene when he got his jersey and let the tears flow, that was everything... I also got him in my top 5 along with Daichi, Tsukki, Tendou and Tanaka.
If you liked this episode just wait until the next few as they are when all of the story build up over the season comes together as well as several VERY hype moments.
i really love that part where a volleyball player was nerding about volleyball to the girl she was with, I think its cool to have someone we can talk about things that we love.
Hey Coach! The fox in the intermission references not only Inarizaki's mascot, but also its role in Shintoism. Foxes, or kitsunes, are messengers/representations of the Shinto kami/goddess, Inari, goddess of rice, harvest, agriculture, fertility etc. They are treated with an air of mysticism and are described to be highly intelligent and have paranormal powers. Its symbolism has since expanded in modern times to things like business and money too. They can be seen at shrines dedicated to them.
I might be wrong about this, but I also feel like Shinsuke Kita's Grandma's superstition stems from Shinto beliefs. In Shintoism, Japan's unique religion, there is life in every form of matter, whether it be actually living or a pebble in the river. As such, there is a god for essentially any object in this world, which is why she says "the gods are always watching." Although Shinsuke had long outgrown such superstition, it definitely had a profound impact on how he conducts himself, as if someone was always watching him. The reason I mention this is because at 20:35, Shinsuke's line, "I'm watching all of you" essentially shows how he has now become the god that watches his team.
It's some awesome symbolism, especially since in the first episode of this match, when Inarizaki and Karasuno were posing in symbolic backdrops, Inarizaki stood on some steps in front of a torii, which is a gate usually seen in front of a Shinto shrine. Karasuno stood lower on the steps, framed in darkness, as if they were some new, intruding beasts of the night.
The parallel between Kita and Daichi is very nice. Daichi, even though he's the support of the team, is constantly pushing it, both his team and himself. Kita is all about that reliability. both are valid, but its interesting.
THIS IS GONNA BE ANOTHER AMAZING EPISODE. THANKS COACH!
hi rem! xd
He got his Uniform and the title of Captain in his third year of high school :)
One of my fav aspects of haikyuu!! (though it’s very hard to choose!) is how it portrays different but realistic leadership styles with each of the captains of its teams. Almost all of the focused on teams has a different style, and it just really impresses me that Furudate (the writer of the manga) managed to depict so many recognizable and engaging leadership dynamics. I think it really shows that not all good leaders look the same, and maybe encourages people to look at themselves and decide which leadership type they can fit to their own personality.
They didn't really try to switch Tanaka to blocking in the middle, it was just the way it had to be with Hinata(The middle blocker)committed to blocking Osamu Miya. With Hinata occupied, someone had to block the middle and that happened to be Tanaka.
A Volleyball team that wears mostly black, with a Japanese Youth Team level Setter who excels at serving, a shorter-than-usual middle blocker that has an unusual Quick, a tall middle blocker that specializes in defense, an Ace that can get on a roll and smash through blocks, a Team Captain that's great at receives and calming his team down, and a duo that argue with each other a lot.
There's a lot of similarities between Karasuno and Inarizaki, and I think Furudate specifically had Karasuno wear their alternate uniforms to reinforce the idea that Inarizaki is a more advanced version of Karasuno.
kita is such a well made character. He's one of my favorites
When Atsumu is about to begin his serve, he indicates to the school band to be quiet. It reminds me of the difference of what Oikawa (K-pop) does when he serves. The Aoba Josai cheer squad says "Ole!"
Kita is such an impactful character that many people can learn from within volleyball or outside. I don’t even know if the mangaka expected how much of a fan favorite kita is, but moments like these are what makes haikyuu so special compared to other sports anime
In anime you will often see a pair of siblings referring to the Gin (silver) and Kin (gold) twins. They were Japan's oldest living identical twins living for 107 yrs. They were considered national treasures due to how long they lived compared to the average lifespan for people in Japan. Another thing to note is that Inari is a reference to the god of agriculture. The god is usually associated/seen with a kitsune (fox).
So little clarification since you seemed confused but Kita is in fact the captain. His jersey has the captain bar under the 1 on the front but I don’t think it has it on the back as far as I could see and there were also several zoomed in shots where the bar was cut off so I can understand the confusion. I’m not a manga reader so I can’t say for any future opponents but I think every team other than Fukurodani (and maybe a minor team they played during qualifiers where maybe it was number 2 but I don’t remember) has the captain as number 1.
Hey coach jst wanted to let u knw abt the season 4 flying birds. They're actually the players
U usually see hinata and kageyama
And the FOXES are ATSUMU and OSAMU as they belong to the team INARIZAKI where inari means fox. The CATS were KUROO and KENMA and the flying owls were BOKUTO and his setter AKAASHI
23:50 Inari is the name of a Japanese god closely associated with foxes
24:15 Rintaro(Suna) is annoyed that Tsukki seemingly doesn't put any effort once he jumped for the block
Usually a blocker would try to at least move their arms last second or move into the block to stop the spiker, which Tsukki doesn't do
I think he (Rintaro) finds it vexing that despite Tsukki having shown that he is a good blocker he seems to have given up stopping his spikes already - it's no fun/you get no satisfaction if you don't get a challenge from the block
like that time with Hinata in season1 I think when Karasuno played against Johzenji(the party team in yellow with the manager that kept them in check)
Instead of trying to block Hinata's quick they decided to not block him and receive his spikes instead
Hinata then grumbled that he hates being blocked but getting completely ignored was even more annoying
38:10 Dateko and Inarizaki are from completely different prefectures so Rintaro probably has never played against Dateko's Iron Wall
They'd only meet on a national tournament level or during a skirmish/practice match (which aint too probable given distance I'd say)
i absolutly agree with comparing kita to suga+daichi, but it's done in such an adorable method, that it makes kita feel like he been part of the entire show to me, i love him so much
I just wanted to let you know coach, towards the end of episode 23 Kita makes a great little speech so you might want to just listen to it all the way through before you make any comments (don’t be afraid to go back and rewatch it 😊)
definitely agree!
Pertaining to your final comments on the episode: I feel like the story tellers are perfect at truly having the push and pull of hope and dread. It magnetizes the story to your emotions by making everything feel earned. I feel as tho any issue that had a payoff felt as such and it makes you get into it so much more and keeps you watching. The building blocks of each character and team were so thought out and really makes you happy when you watch through it! Love your reactions coach!!
21:18 Never realized how important that look from Suga to Hinata was until now, having seen the last episode of the series.
all matches that are 3 sets, even in tournaments, are 25 points. It's only in the championship games where they go to 5 and the final set is 15. High school games, even in tournaments are 3 sets, 25 points each set. They do switch sides in the 3rd set, as it is the final one.
Animal representations during the halftime:
Setters & their hitters:
Crows- Kageyama/Hinata
Foxes- Osamu/Atsumu
Cats- Kuroo/Kenma
Owls- Akaashi/Bokuto
🏐😉
Just for reference, at least in the anime and i don't know if it actually works like that in Japan in general, the lower the number on the jersey, the older the player. And most captains are one of the oldest players in their team so they're given the #1 jersey, also having the underline below the number. In the case of Karasuno:
#1-3: Third years
#4-8: Second years
#9-12: First years
Kita's conversation with Aran about doing in games what you do in practice (trying to be more than you are) was originally aired during a time where I was trying to be more than I am with my writing (that is, absolutely perfect) to the point that it was causing me to doubt every single sentence I had written.
Kita's words helped me. I won't say that I am completely over being a perfectionist, but Kita's words are simple, yet profound. Once I began to write just as I do in my day-to-day, I began to see a ton of progress with my Master's thesis. I made time later to do corrections as needed, but what came out of that situation was the realization that I am how I practice, and that's how I need to be when executing monumental tasks. As my Literary Theory professor once said to me, "The word 'perfect' originally meant 'to be complete,' so if you complete your work, then it's perfect."
Suguru and his date are one of my favourite parts of this great episode. I love how he nerds out on volleyball and thinks he's boring her, then she asks more questions. Reminds me of the times I nerd out with my girlfriend.
If you're questioning why suna kinda popular in haikyuu it's probably because he kinda have like emo boy/bad boy kinda vibe also I don't know if anyone have point this out but suna rintarou is the only one in the inarizaki that doesn't have the kansai ben(dialect) atleast not like the other inarizaki's member because he's not from hyogo(inarizaki's prefecture) he's from aichi . He got scouted
hes only popular with the Westerners due to his look, and thats kinda a sad thing. hes actually a rlly good and a chill boy, in the newest CD drama, based on his reaction when the Miyas told him to go find Kita's weakness with them, it seems like hes often being dragged around and does stupid stuffs by the twins even thought he doesn't want to (and got scolded afterwards lol)
why did i said this is a sad thing cuz the fandom misunderstood his character so much. like, i rarely seen anyone understand his character fully and kept creating weird headcanon abt him
pspslsjsbsjbjsbsi im sorry for the rant but i just want everyone to fully understand his character more :'( u can tell me to delete my comment if you feel uncomfortable with it hicc 😢
@@froginlove nono you said everything in my mind.. the fandom sometimes just like to portrait their fantasy of the characters look to their type and it really sad. I hate every stories and fanart of suna being a drug addict. Why? He a talented player why whold you picture such thing towards him
coach, you can distinguish which dialogue are just thoughts and which are being spoken by their font style,
texts in italic are thoughts
regular texts are speech.
the follow im gonna say im not that sure (correct me if im wrong guys thanks) since i dont watch that much anime anymore but if there are subtitles both above and below the screen, the texts above are usually less important than the ones below, most of the time they are just announcers and stuff.
I’ve been waiting for this episode! Kita Shinsuke is a favorite character for me since I view him as the embodiment of Haikyuu’s overall lesson of hard work. So many other characters could also represent that hard work, but with Shinsuke’s story, it’s the small everyday routines of taking care of oneself that had the greatest effect imo. I find his consistency and work ethic to be very inspiring and applicable to real life. It’s comforting to know that every action you take means something, no matter how small or repetitive it is.
Also, loved your reaction here! I really like that you take the time to talk about volleyball techniques and animation. It makes me want to try playing again lol
So true. Kita's story is so inspiring. This is why Haikyuu is such a fictional masterpiece. I was always wondering how an 18 year old boy can be so wise like Kita.
Spoilers for the manga 🚨
I agree. And even Hinata's journey later on makes some emphasis in this. His resolve after the loss at nationals- And later on, Brazil, where he had a routine he'd stick to religiously; the whole meditating, cooking, etc, all of that did remind me of Kita's philosophy. Good stuff right there.
shoutout to the editor on this video - the pacing on the mid-ad was awesome where you get those couple seconds of seeing Coach nom while the audio keeps on moving
You're spot on coach! Suna is used to other players just trying to straight for the kill block against me and he is getting annoyed that Tsukki isn't gong for the direct approach.
About Aone not being in the visual where Rintaro is thinking at the most powerfull blocker:
The reason why Aone is not there is because actually Date Tech never went to the nationals, and since inarizaki and date tech are from different regions of japan, they never fought against each other.
Congrats on 500K subscribers! Well deserved.
Thank you very much!
About the ending of the episode where Suna Rintaro says Kageyama is a scarier blocker than Tsukki. He's basically saying that a blocker that isn't getting block after block isn't scary(Tsukki has like 2 kill blocks so far in the match). That's why he emphasises that Kageyama is a scarier blocker coz Kageyama just got a kill block alone. The next episodes will definitely focus on this point so just wanted Coach to know that this conversation was kinda important.
Mommy Suga + Daddy Daichi = Good boi Kita
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I can't nice one...
Everytime I do something good and properly I'll be like, Kita will be proud of me. If I want to break a routine or do something reckless, I'm reminded of Kita's existence too. Somehow my first thought was hin. He's just a 2D character, a simple, quiet, side character, but the simplicity is so impactful in your daily life.
I have no love for Inarizaki's cheering section, but with a captain like Kita, that'd be a great team to be on.
I mentioned it in a previous video, but the halftime scene of the foxes have the Miya twins haircuts (Atsumu and Osamu) and the owls are actually fat crows and have the haircuts of Kageyama and Hinata (only Kageyama in this episode)
the interaction between Asahi and Nishinoya where Asahi says he'll get it over regardless, is a parallel to what Nishinoya did for him. What gave Asahi the confidence to continue as an ace, is coming back to Nishinoya.
Oh hell yes, Kita my baby 😭❤ I definitely adore his character, and while I love the majority of haikyuu characters, he's definitely one of my favourites. At 13:44 though 😆 Sugamama + Dadchi = Kita good boi. I love it because it's so true 🤣
But we're seriously getting into the best episodes from here on out, there are so many hype moments coming up coach that I know you're going to love. I'm so excited for you to see the big things yet to come.
Kita became my favorite Haikyuu character after watching this season so i was really looking forward to ur reactions. I really love his impactful words and moments. In fact, i liked seeing people talking abt how kita's words impact their lifestyle, really showing how even a character like him can make a difference in people's lives.
damn… i never thought of that… daichi and suga equals kita… that is so good analogy…
dang when i saw kita cry over being picked, I KNOW THAT FEELING I ACTUALLY TEARED UP T_T
I love Miya Atsumu too much. Sure he was a meanie the first time you meet him. But he just grows on you soooo much
We're so close to the end of the season! Im so excited to see coaches reactions but so sad that we're gonna be out of Haikyu for a while!
The reason why "Inarizaki" has a fox reference it's because "Inari" it's the goddess of fertility in the Shinto religion and she has fox harbingers/herald so her image is really tied to the fox image (that's why when Karasuno first encounter with Inarizaki the image was a Japanese temple), and not only that Inarizaki is a known clever, astute team like a fox.
And as a side note "Nekoma" reference to cats is because "Neko" it's Cat in Japanese and "Karasuno" reference to crows it's 'cause "Karasu" it's Crow in Japanese.
i did not expect kita to mean so much to me when he got introduced, but he is just such an inspiration and a comfort to me and to his team! while he might not have the insane strategies or power like other players, he is an all-around great player and leader and he always takes care of the people around him. i wish i could hug him sometimes and tell him it's okay to sometimes pause and rest
One of the most emotional moments of the season, this really made me like Kita :o
Suna actually just wants people to drop their hand while blocking him, because he is confident in himself to read the opponent and then hit the other way again, aka to not stretch to the left this time.
He is actually annoyed that Tsukishima has not tried to do that yet.
I just came back from volleyball game and start watching this episode ofc with a meal ready. This series is so good that it became my daily rutine.
Rintaro is gonna learn first hand just how scary can an efficient algorithm be lol
I really like this episode from the development of kita and Noya, but there is something that everyone just forgets. Asahi stopped playing in the start of the serie because he hasn't trust in himself, he don't liked that pressure of being the last resource of the team, and seeing him saying "even if it's not an A pass i will make it through" just makes me think how much has he evolved, not just as a player but as a person too. In my opinion that is a great example of how sports make us change and evolve.
I’ve been waiting for coach to meet Kita since season 1!!!!! I love Kita’s energy so much, he deserves all the love 🥰🥰🥰
the underlined number to indicate the captain is only on the front number. That's not something I spotted until I asked myself the question, are the underlines on front and/or back. Took awhile to spot places where I could determine the answer.
Shinsuke reminds me so much of the german philosopher Immanuel Kant both have a very precise daily routine that they never depart from!
HERE WE GOOOOOOO!!!! I just know your going to love the rest of this season from here on out. The character growth on both teams is massive in the upcoming EPs.
About Inarizaki's name, Inari is a divinity in Japanese Shinto. It is represented by a fox, hence the commercial break fox! There are a LOT of Inari shrines in Japan.
Fun fact : I live in Hyogo prefecture, and Inarizaki is their reprensentative for the national championship! But I don't think this school actually exists in real life sadly.
So i will explain the half time animal references here.
Crows : Represents Karasuno.
You can see the hair color to identify which people they are referring to like orange hair for Hinata and black for Kageyama.
Cats : Represents Nekoma. The same hair color reference can be used here.
Fox : Represents Inarizaki. You mostly see the Miya twins.
OMGEONSIFJSJ ITS BEEN 82 YEARS AND WE'RE FINALLY HEREEEEEEE I COUDLNT WAIT UNTIL U REACT TO THIS EP, COACH!! when i saw the thumbnail on my home page right after i opened my laptop and chrome at 5 am i clicked faSTER THAN SPEED!!
Hey Coach! A nice way to know when the subtitles are either a character speaking or thinking, is when the text is in italics (sloping letters if I got this correctly, sorry if the term is wrong). They use italics when a character has a monologue.
Really appreciate your reaction. I know ur time is valuable... But i want to say that it hits differently watched your analysis over and over again.
You heard it here first folks, "Roleplaying is important"
This is what I've been waiting for! I've known since day 1 he would Kita!
