| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The first match between Nekoma and Fukurodani wasn't as intense as I though it would be but it was still great. Bokuto was too good. Nekoma's second opponent were so annoying with their tactics. Lev's sister is hot. |
 |
| Been a while since Haikyuu, glad to see the animation is still living up. Then again, Production IG is in their zone with sports anime |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| Man I love Bokuto, he's definitely one of my favorites. |
| being a manga reader, I'm really disappointed how this match got handled. this is supposed to be like seijoh vs karasuno. they rushed a lot of stuff and the whole game wasn't nearly as entertaining as it was in the manga, no tense, no excitement whatsoever. nonetheless watching it being animated is still better than nothing. but you can't squeeze 5 chapters in 3/4 of the episode. |
| can't help but laugh every time Lev is getting teased by everyone. YAKUUUUU is so cool as always ;-; The matches were too fast I think??? It wasn't as entertaining as it looked like in the manga just like what Zeke-frost also said above!! |

| I cannot put into words how good and nostalgic it feels to have Haikyuu back. Time to put all these other phony sports anime to shame. |
 |
| Would’ve been nice if this got extended but it for me hyped none the less The end of the ep oh dear |
 |
| This might end up the highest rated OVA in a long time. |
 |
| 陸VS空 is pronounced Rika verses Sora. So why does the MAL title say Kuu? Alternative reading?? |
| HEY HEY HEY!! You know it's gonna be an incredible experience when you get fired up mere minutes into the show as the soundtrack starts playing. This was just too awesome, I'm so happy to have Haikyuu back after 3 years. Let's go! I do wish this had more production value into it as it felt like some parts were skipped but it's still great. |

idealtoy said: 陸VS空 is pronounced Rika verses Sora. So why does the MAL title say Kuu? Alternative reading?? Yep, I think it's more common in the Tokyo dialect, fitting considering the teams playing. |
| I love how Bokuto managed to forget how to cross spike. Weakness 37 lol |
 |
| Bokuto the goat lol. Thou the first match was pretty normal. The second match is amusing and it just got really interesting now that Yaku got hurt. Time for Lev to show his stuff I guess. Also both of the sisters are great. |
 |
| "Hei, hei, hei" that's what I hate, but missed from Bokuto 😆 My favorite player is, of course from Karasuno team, Tsukishima Kei.. but I really like the dynamic of Bokuto and Akaashi. Been a long time since I saw Kuroo too! 😍 I haven't read the manga yet, but I'm pretty satisfied with the first episode of the OVA. Although, I hope the episode could be added so the story won't feel like it is rushed 😃 |

idealtoy said: 陸VS空 is pronounced Rika verses Sora. So why does the MAL title say Kuu? Alternative reading?? it's because; 空can also Mean Kuu as a On Yomi (when it is with other kanji that makes a word in the language like in No Game no Life - Kuuhaku, Space [空白]) and it is not Rika, it is Riku (陸) such as in Sports anime, the Infamous Track-Field Club (陸上部 - Riku Jou Bu) hence, Riku vs Kuu! |
| KajiKaji's character's team trying hard to fight against the opponent team. The new comer is being nervous? It seems like the main player of the opponent team (Kimura-san's character) is tennen? They were able to advance to next match. That next opponent has shady personality it seems. A member got affected. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Well liked the first episode..so much hype...glad that two episodes came together |
 |
| It's been 3 years since I last watched Haikyuu. I feel refreshed after watching this ep xD But poor Yaku :( |
  |
| I've gotta say even tho I'm not really invested in these two teams much... the music for this series and the whole sound design is top notch, it's rlly good and I'm glad Haikyuu is back |
 |
| I love Bokuto and Akaashi so much. This isn't bad at all, but still pretty disappointing compared to the manga. Just too condensed, I suppose. I'll see how next episode is but this will certainly be the first piece of Haikyuu!! content that I don't give a 9 or 10/10 to. |
| Amazing 9/10 episode |
| Nekoma lost but they still have a shot a nationals?? ughh. I'm so confused |
| bokuto sounds like hard gay when he says hey hey hey Pyoung said: Nekoma lost but they still have a shot a nationals?? ughh. I'm so confused pretty sure there's 3 qualification slots for their region because its tokyo. |
Tyestor said: bokuto sounds like hard gay when he says hey hey hey Pyoung said: Nekoma lost but they still have a shot a nationals?? ughh. I'm so confused pretty sure there's 3 qualification slots for their region because its tokyo. After Watching the second episode I get it now but that's really something they should have explained at the beginning sheesh |
| Didn't like how rushed the Nekoma vs. Fukurodani match was. They were competing for a spot in the Nationals yet there barely was any tension. That said, it's still Haikyuu!! and I tend to love everything this series releases but I wish this side story wasn't that condensed. |
| My little Kenma and Bokuto are back, I'm so happy! But I have to agree that the match felt a bit rushed. Nonetheless, this is still better than nothing. On the other hand, Nekoma's second rival has quite a nasty technique to distract their opponent. I'm not really fond of that to be honest.（︶^︶） |
 |
| [quote=Usopp8000 message=58944877] Thanks. Spell correct tried to fix that one. I usually catch them but missed this time. Thanks for the insights. |
| Interesting match just like expected |
 |
| mmmmy god, the way i missed this show and the guys ;n; last part was intense af |
| This episode did not have a lot of intensity. But it was still fun to watch! |
| Wahhhh I like Nekoma and Fukurodani, I root for them! I love them since the training arc, they help team Karasuno a lot! ❤️ Ehh??! Fukurodani win?! I love them too but Nekoma still have a chance to play at Nationals right?! I'm waited too long for Karasuno x Nekoma fight! Nohebi is annoying! Why Nekoma is weak now? ;( |
| Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. |
| well, yh I expected to be more epic like karasuno vs seijo in second season but damn good still :3 fukurodani was really strong didn't think nekoma would have so bad time but after their won very clearly, love the white jersey of nekoma and fukurodani so cool damn i really love this series, better animation, soundtrack etc nice job production ig, to the top promises to be good, hype. |
| That captain Daisho is showing such a good example for his teammates... How good would tease do? Nothing! It will break someone's spirit and creates pressure for a team so it will loose the game :/ not cool! And that look shows he's searching for a target to tease and bring someone down. Such a troublemaker and I'm already disliking a character. Good grief! I can't believe Kenma stabbed Lev while saying he's not near Shoyo's level XD At least he gave strenght and it wasn't that bad in the end ;) Great episode! |
 [*]My Completed List [*]♪Listen ► [/list][/left] |
| This was a bit underwhelming, had to pause and rewatch for a bit cause I missed how suddenly they started playing another team, lol. I watched all the movies recently so it shouldn't feel so distant to me but the match was really mostly lost on me. Not much hype as with usual Karasuno matches. It was good to see Haikyuu again though, still hyped for the new season. |
  |
| The first match seemed so normal I guess Haikyuu isn't Haikyuu without intensity and cool osts and great camera angles. |
| Goddamn i forgot who these characters were |

| Omg, they don't need an injury now. |
 |
| bokuto is so hot....he has a great body & lmfao @ how ditzy he is MORE BOKUTO PLS also that text hinata sent to kenma LOL I LOVE THEM, so that's what kenma replied to in the last episode of s3  |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| Kenma and Bokuto 🛐 |
| Finally I can side characters I love. They could make 2 entire episodes of Nekoma vs Fukurodani, not just 1 :( |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
