Heh I got some laughs because of the plays from this episode.

Really loved the music of the second half of the match again. Intense as hell. The coordination between the team plays really makes it awesome and there's a very competitive atmosphere. One of my favorite episodes yet to date from this season :>

Very close game. Servers from both teams, and both were blocked after once each.

Yay, Miyu-Miyu's character's turn again. Main guy's scary/concentration mode again, so he saved it. Then lol @ Setter guy not letting main guy hit. Wow, that was a prolong final point.

Final ep. next for this season.

Nice episode. Karasuno actually got through Kyotani's plays twice, but those last few minutes were intense; Oikawa's got a lot to look over.

Most intense and hype episode of the series yet imo

WAY TO GO KARASUNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....I am proud of each and every single player on the team and also I have to give mad respect to Aoba Josai as well

Seeing Oikawa reflect on his life and his ideals full throttle was tough especially since he's my favorite character and I really do feel bad for him.....

Looking forward to seeing what he says to Kageyama in the finale though....I hope that he passes the torch to my second favorite character and gives him his blessing or something :''')

This has got to be the best "last" 5 minutes of my life. The second half is heart stopper at best, I keep holding my breath for the last minute. This is definitely my favorite moment for this anime. Thank God I discovered this anime right after Kuroko No Basket ended and it's a pleasure to watch anime. Definitely deserved 5/5

Sometimes,words are just meaningless


damn,my heart,chill

In all seriousness,even though I knew the outcome,I'm still sad for Seijou (but I'm probably in minority with this heh).
I honestly loved how they re-used the scenes from the first season,it was a great parallelism between Oikawa and Kageyama and how Kags got his revenge.

Simply a masterpiece

I'd even say this was the most intense episode out of both seasons.

I wish every match and every episode was intense as this episode.

One spectacular play after another and the fact that both teams weren't afraid to try out things at such crucial moments made it all the better.

The last segment was surprisingly filled with lots of head bonking on the ball.

Both of each team's effort deserves to be celebrated, and having now seen Oikawa's motivation, there's just nothing to regret about knowing both teams gave it their all.

That was intense episode especially that last point. It also ended greatly with Hinata showing the difference between the last time when he was blocked and this time where he watches the ball and decides how to make strike.

Kageyama's 24th point was also greatly done.

Now one episode left to wrap things up. By the way, props for not giving us a cliffhanger at the end of episode. It would really be evil thing to do so and I was actually expecting it to happen.

Haikyuu is great enough that it doesn't need such things. Also if there was a cliffhanger then it would eliminate the whole intensity that was build up at the end of episode. Otherwise week from now I would start the episode, oh they scored they won. Truly props or that.

Now the last episode will be the conclusion, probably some feast once again and lastly building up the hype for the finals because the finals do deserve the hype!

We will have to wait a little bit for that though and it's actually not that long as it will be fall this year. Just one season without Haikyuu.

Holy **** I died. Way more hype than I could've ever imagined when I read the manga. They depicted this shit absolutely perfectly and surpassed all expectations.

The way they used the friggin same frames for the last KageyamaxHinata set and spike was brilliantly done and Hinata showing that he can see now was beautiful!!

Tadashi being stopped by Iwa sucked esp since that serve was insanely good. Iwa was just in the Zone at that moment. Props to him he was amazing too.

Oikawa's serve was f***n diabolical man. No one can do shit against that lol. But Daichi saved it and that scene with him imagining all the BAs he's received against was epic af! He friggin got sent flying from the serve tho lol

Even Kiyoko's panties dropped XD


Kageyama's dump after trolling the 4 doing the sync attack and looking down on Oikawa was way too awesome to see.

And Suga was amazing. His serves were spot on.

If this series wasn't already 10/10 for me it is now and to think this isn't even the best match lol

i hit my hand on the bedpost when the ball hit the net *so embarrassed*

Hinata's concentration seen by Kageyama kinda guaranteed that he would get the last hit but that was already very, very likely to happen.

Oh my god, how does Haikyuu do this week after week? I felt like I ran a mile after watching the last few minutes.

And poor Oikawa. If this had been a Seijou vs. another team, I would have really rooted for him.

That entire second half (well the whole ep but this half especially) was freaking HYPE

It's like I was literally there in the bleachers with Yachi, Saeko, Shimada and Takinoue watching the amazing final plays.

I think the last episode will adapt the few snippets left of the chapter, but I'm even more excited for season 3 now.

WOW. This episode was just absolutely incredible. Literally EVERYTHING about this episode was on. fucking. point! Even though the outcome was expected, I was just amazed at how intense the episode, and the entire match in general, was. I seriously was expecting to have a heart attack holy shit, and the background music only added to that feeling. Incredible, amazing, unbelievable. Great job Karasuno, great fucking job, this was a 1000/10 episode for me.

People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

That was so intense. I had to scream on my screen.

That hype when Kageyama dumped when everyone is running to spike lol.

I feel bad for Oikawa, since even if he was prepared for Hinata, he wasn't able to return it. >.<
