| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The stakes are just so high for this match. Every single player had their eyes and feelings at their highest peak this episode. Match also had great soundtrack and the momentum of that ball was on sync. It's amazing how every moments from this episode captured the elements of gameplay for both teams. Karasuno deserves all the respet for their hard work. |

Very good game, GOOD JOB HINATA stay strong Awesome episode once again, gorgeous animation Im with a colleague on the phone we both loved it, I wish I could work there too... |
 |
| Setter guy was frustrated because he doesn't want to lose to main guy. time lagging attack? Very long last point. Main guy, again, reminding everyone else to slow down. Miyu-Miyu's character trying to hold his cry like a mother is so cute. Wow @ main two blocking twin's attack. They won. Finale next at 26:35 |

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Amazing save from Tsukki and captain. Was a great match overall, especially the last couple of episodes had me on the edge. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Wow, what a great way to end this match. How Karasuno got the last point was done so well. Also, Hinata man....Hinata’s character development is showing! |
| AH the game is finally over, that was pretty amazing |
 |
| Great game, finally over. Had me on the edge of my seat the whole time |
| This point, This match, This episode.....It's perfect! |
| well that's just my opinion..... |
| IM CRYING SO ARE YOU. IM INTERNALLY SCREAMING IM IN TEARS I- I'm feeling really sad for Inarazaki but GOOD JOB MY BABY CROWNS ILY ALL. This episode was really hyping, so emotional yet exciting. I wonder what's going to happen in the next ep |
| Man. I really did not want the match to end yet. I really wanted it to continue a little longer. At the same time I did not want Inarizaki to lose... damn. I knew I would cry hard when a team would lose because I ended loving both of them. Man. I wish I would cry next week because that is the finale... and the foreshadowing match to come for Karasuno themselves. I swear if they do not announce another season for next year I am really going to lose it. |
| Well, now we know where the missing animation budget wandered off to. |
| jeeeez, these episodes are full of moments for each character. It's incredible to watch it unfold, often rewatch some of the best scenes after the episode ended. |
| We are only here for a short amount of time, I want to waste as much of that time possible doing nonsense |
| Wow, what an episode. The suspense wasn't good for my heart. We all knew that Karasuno would win in the end but that didn't stop the excitement. That last part with Hinata and Kageyama was intense. They better announce a new season after next week's episode. |
 |
| What an intense episode. Characters, animation, tension, all were well built up. Also, Hinata and Kageyama's character development is truly remarkable. To me, this is why Haikyuu is one of the best animes out there. |
 |
| You already know its about to go down when they roll up the opening first thing into the episode. Hands down best episode.. Can't believe how good this episode was, IT WAS SO FUCKING INTENSE HOLY SHITTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!! Hinata's impact on these last few episodes is insane, the development was crazy not only for Hinata but for others as well. "Everyone was surprised... but we weren't". That last point was predictable as the built up made it seem possible for at least Hinata to go up against the hit, but it was still goddamn beautiful and nerve-wracking holy shit FUCKKKKKK!!!! This episode really got me in the head, it was so damn fun to watch!! "We don't need any miracles". That line also really hit it off for me, I feel like it shows how everybody in the team knows how strong they are and are confident in their abilities. I love it. Also, these moments are just beautiful. |
 |
| That was an INTENSE episode!!! Kagehina's block at the end I HONESTLY STARTED CRYING PLEASE and just the overall character development for both Kageyama and Hinata...man, this anime is in a league of its own. I had been a little disappointed with the animation for the first few episodes of this season but this one single episode more than made up for all of it. Amazing, amazing episode!! |
 |
| Epic episode, intense all the way through. I was on the edge of me seat the whole way cheering for Karasuno. Kageyama with that epic jump toss and the setter dump, absolute madman. I love his smirk to Hinata proclaiming he won. xD Teared up when Hinata made that high ball. Tsukki trusting Hinata was a fantastic scene too. Overall, the whole things was just glorious. Kageyama and Hinata duo blocking the Miya twins quick was beautiful. Absolutely masterful stuff, this is what I love to see. Congratulations to the boys from Karasuno for their well deserved, hard fought win. |
 |
| What heck was that animation after 19:00?!?!?!?! as much as I liked the episode this throw me off, these moments you want your quality as high as possible but looking at the faces it throw away my hype into the trash can. gave it a recheck and realized it was only around 30 seconds or less guess I let enjoyment go away just like that... screw who animated this small part. |

| Ngl this episode was fucking amazing. First episode this season I actually got hyped watching. |
| Watashi wa a victim of cyberbullying. Everyday someone online calls me a "weeb" desu. Watashi won't stand for this. 26 percent of bullying victims are chosen due to their race or religion desu. I may look like a basic white boy, but deep down I am Nihongo desu. Watashi religion is anime. Anata wa bullying me because of my race and religion desu ka? Disgusting desu. Anata should be ashamed of yourself, racist pig. A baka gaijin like anata is probably jealous of my race and culture, cause Nippon is more sugoi than your shitty country desu. Watashi pity anata. You'll never be Nihongo like watashi. Educate yourself on nani a "weeb" is. |
| This episode was brilliant. Intense action and gorgeous animation with cool angles gave my chills. The final rally was the best. Hinata receive that put the whole team back together was beautiful, then Tsukki and Daichi saving the ball and finally.. final block from Kageyama and Hinata against Twin's quick.. man this was absolutely amazing. |

| The season-long match finally came to an end. This episode and previous one was great, I don’t even want to talk about the rest of this season (that’s how much I disliked it). Great episode. |
 |
| What a great episode ngl! :D |
 |
| OMG!!! What a beautiful episode, Everything was just great!!! loved it!!! |
| I was a bit bummed out with the last few episodes, but maaaan this one more than makes up for that. 5/5, would tenderly ace serve again. |
     |
| lol they seriously used the same Atsumu’s cool “silencing the band with one hand before serving” animation again and again this season lol. Kags’ dump was obvious this time tho. Ah, finally, the long match ended. I’ll be honest I’m not a fan of matches that take a whole season. This was way too slow. And even though I liked the match overall, it still was not as thrilling as Seijoh or Shiratorizawa matches of the 2nd and 3rd seasons. One more episode to go. Nekoma awaits. |
| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| Shouldn't have looked at the staff list cuz there was an absurd amount of great animator on the ep and I think the episode didn't really live up to my expectations, that's on me I'm stupid. So ear me out, I love the story it tolds and I adore Inarizaki as a team, they're definetly up there in term of player I didn' want to see lose, and that Kageyama/Hinata block was amazing. BUT, in term of Haikyuu climaxes, considering the staff that was on the ep, I can't help but being disappointed, the camera work was good, but the animation wasn't THAT impressive. And while by this season's standards the episode is definetly special, in the whole series, it's rather unimpressive. Soooo i guess that's on me for being a sakugatard and hyping myself up for no reason. With this match over I don't think can give it the 7 I was hoping for. Might switch to the manga if S5 is of the same caliber. |

| Jesus these last few episodes have been insane and incredible. I may be sounding like a broken record at this point but I'll say once more, having a full episode of just volleyball action with no flashbacks interrupting the flow of the match does wonders in terms of how invested I get. My eyes literally glued to the screen, the episode feeling like it's only 5 minutes long, and even though this result was expected, my heart was still racing and I could feel the tension and nervousness swelling inside me as both teams traded points to try and be the one to claim victory. I even teared up a little when that final point was scored lol. This match as a whole may not have always been the greatest, but this episode made this last part of the match such an amazing experience. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| The way they did everything made this episode so freakkkking good. The best of the season so far :) |
 |
| Gotta say, I hadn't disliked the previous season with the new style but this match has really clinched it for me. I have no dislike for it whatsoever. I had goosebumps the last 3 episodes, not even afraid to admit I was crying tears of joy at the end of this one. Excellent match. That moment when Hinata and Kageyama shut down their own copied quick to win the match was just, perfection. |
 |
| Woooow, that last twins quick attack looked NASTY. LET'S GO KAGEHINA!!! Ngl, at some point, after dragging the match point so many times, the episode looked boring but it was, overall, still exciting. |
 |
| Great episode. Was hyped till the end of the game. When the action is present everything is smooth sailing. |
 |
| This episode gave me chills...the entire episode...dang was this episode great! The final rally, the rally that decides it all, the moment everyone wants to see was displayed beautify!! What a crazy game...11 episodes of ups and downs and we have finally reached the end of the game in Karasuno's victory!! Well deserved win!! Breathtaking episode :) |
 |
| Fuck! This was so good! Last few episodes were so exciting, this one might be my favorite of the year even. When Sugawara started to cry, I almost did as well. Rare are the shows which manage to make you feel this way. |

He was the main animator in the final rally. And it's really looks like the manga [/quote] |
