| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ooh good episode, we got the match although Karasuno is trails behind their opponent a bit. One thing I do appreciate quite a bit about the episode is that they focus more on Tsukki, not just Hinata on the team. Pretty fast pacing match, they didn't waste much time either. I like Karasuno's determination though. Time to attack! :D |
 |
| Bad start and Miyu-Miyu's character freaking out... Lefty, huh. Delinquent looking guy got the first point. They are having a hard time and Nobu's character finally blocked his serve. The enemy doesn't like the main guy (well, at least he got his attention). lol @ delinquent-looking guy's accident getting a point. Miyu-Miyu's character still don't get much action. |

| They're going to have to keep this at a fast pace to get through 5 sets in 10 episodes. Good shit so far. |
| If the first episode of the real match is already that awesome...good god. That moment when Nishinoya got the spike of Ushijima was epic! Much focus on Tsukki, oh yes man... TENDOU YOU FUCKING GOD!!! |
| great episode as usual, the tension is rising! the red haired dude is pretty amusing so far, can't wait to see more of him lol |
 |
| This shit is too good. Loved Tendou in the manga it is great to see it animated. |
| :) |
| Excellent episode, you can feel the tension :D They lost the first set but it was helpful to get an idea of Shiratorizawa's strategy. Slowly some downs may be found later. Come on Karasuno, you can do it! |
THANKS SENPIEX  |
| Awesome, Just plain awesome. Such a good episode. Ushijima's left handed style causes so much problems eh? Didn't realize it was that big of a deal. THAT NISHINOYA EPICNESS, That focus in his eyes, That 'KOI!' , So epic man. I was cheering for him. Love Karasuno's determination as always, They always motivate themselves really well. Interesting bit about Tsukki that his brother let on, It was cool to see him get his hands on Ushijima's spike. Tanaka's head receive was funny. xD Tendou seems to be an amusing guy, That Hinata spike block. :o Fairly fast pacing for the first set, Only lasted an episode. However if the first episode of the match is like this, I can't wait to see how great this is gonna be once we're really underway. |
 |
| Tendou has such a crazy personality Hinata is going to have it rough next week  |
 |
| That saying about left hand being the devil's sign doesn't exist for nothing amirite? I can't believe I relate to Ushiwaka then Calm the hell down Ushiwaka, you damn monster. Speaking of monster,my favorite Shiratorizawa dude makes his big intro finally- Guess Monster! God do I love him. I don't care about everyone's favorite Rock Lee guy, I love my Tendou and his trashy faces. Oh look,actual giraffe shows his glory again  |
| Entertaining episode.Ushijima is a beast and scored 11 points in the 1st set,even though Nishinoya tried his best to receive his spikes.But he isn't the only obstacle in this match for Karasuno.Lol'd at Tanaka's head receive.Let's see how the 2nd set will go. |
 |
| Ushijima is so OP. |
| Man I was panicking just like Karasuno at the start of the set, feeling of despair was real, this is more than just a cartoon And I'm feeling strong Midousuji-kun (from Yowamushi Pedal) vibes from this "little" fella right here  |
 |
| This show is so fucking hype I swear So glad to have Haikyuu back!! |
| God damn the tension of this match is killing me. Karasuno had a rough first set but so far they look like they're holding their own in the second set. Tendo looked badass at the end, can't wait to see more of him. |
| 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. |
| Tanak's head recive killed me XD. Nice episode overall with a few epic moments. Im kinda surprised about the pacing, dont get me wrong i think it was perfect but the match is supposed to last almost 10 episodes so i figured that it would be slower. But i like this better! |
 |
| They have to win this set. Tanaka sacrificed his head for a point. |
 |
| THIS MADE ME SO HELLA PUMPED UP OYA OYA |
| Ushiwaka destroyed them in the first set. |
 |
| This ep was really good, but I think its from now on that things will be getting more interesting since Karasuno will start to get more in the match and see that Ushijima isn't the only one to worry about. Tanaka tho HAHAHAHA he is so amazing!! And it was so good to see Kageyama and Noya playing like always!! AND THE PREVIEW FOR THE NEXT EP?? WAS I THE ONLY ONE THAT SAW TSUKISHIMA BLOCKING THE ATTACK!!???? AHHHHHHHH I CANT WAIT ANOTHER WEEK |
| I JUST WANT MOREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE |

 |
| Just me who thinks they should actually research their opponents before the game starts? I mean if Shiratorizawa are really as famous as they've said then it shouldn't be that hard to do :s |
  |
| Tanaka head receive was jokes xD apart from that it was an really intense episode can't wait to see how they deal with the pressure |

| I love how thay are animating the match, everything looks perfect by now. Can't wait to see more action of my lovely Tendou next week <3 |
| So many awesome moments in this episode. Definitely the best anime of the season for me. Really liking Tendou right now. |
 |

| It's called a trashCAN, not a trashCANNOT. |
| Feel sad to hear Ukai's voice after knowing that his VA passed away Still feeling hyped. It's a great episode with some great moments (as usual). It is expected that Karasuno lost their 1st set. Hopefully they will get it back on the 2nd set. Hinata's fingers definitely look hurt, haha. Facing strong spiker like Ushijima. Tanaka's blocking and scoring with his head was hilarious xD And looks like Hinata's going to have a hard time in the next episode. |
  |
| still mourning for ukai's seiyuu, hearing his voice is breaking my heart. RIP Kazunari Tanaka. But this was a great episode though! Ushijima is OP as hell! But if shiratorizawa have him then Karasuno got NOYA! LOL! GOD! noya getting that receive as promised! was so AWESOME! as expected of him! But I gotta say tanaka's facial receive is as badass as noyas! HAHAHA! Im laughing so hard! Come on! Bring it! Bring it! Bring me some Tsukki development!!! loving his screen time and that last scene! Damn! Im starting to love Tendou! |

| Good episode. Despite that Karasuno didn't quite make it in the first set, the second set seems to show some hope. Ushijima and Tendou are still going strong, though. Lol at Suga's outrage and Tanaka's head receive. |
 |
Oh god, same here, I keep having this heart-broken feeling when his character speaks up :/ Other than that, pretty good ep, everyone is so tense! Hope that Tsukishima will show some balls soon, I love the intelectual guys in sport anime. He just needs to cool off a bit. Judging by the ending scene and title of the next ep ("Guess Monster") I'm thinking that red guy with bulging eyes has some great intuition or something? If I'm right, that could be pretty interesting. Can't wait for next ep. |

Did anyone else catch the incorrect scoring at 20:00? Karasuno scores the first point in the second game (spike bounces off Shiratorizawa receiver and goes out), but the scoreboard was updated as 1-0 to Shiratorizawa. Later points got added to that incorrect score. Either I'm missing something or Karasuno got robbeddd |
ECHOnce said: Looking at the school name(the kanji written I mean), it's supposed to be to be Karasuno - Shiratorizawa, not Shiratorizawa - Karasuno. The translator made a mistake there.Did anyone else catch the incorrect scoring at 20:00?

| I just want next week to happen... But I also know that rushing to the next week means the closer we get to a longgggg period without Haikyuu!!... :((((((( |
| So sad to hear about the passing of VA Tanaka, Kazunari as Coach Ukai. Excellent episode. Loving this match so far. Ushiwaka is so damn powerful. Those spikes & serves. Love the chanting on both sides. Nishinoya slowly getting use to Ushiwaka's spikes & serves. LOL Tendo is hilarious. Just loves irritating Hinata. 1st set to Shiratorizawa. LETS GO KARASUNO!!! |

| That Tendo guy is a freak. |
| When Nishinoya was able to receive Ushijima's serve THAT WAS SO FUCKING SATISFYING Guess Monster hype |
 |
| Coach Ukai :( Hopefully Tsuki will play with 100% from next episode |
 |
| This is about as hype as watching a bunch of preschoolers get wrecked by a college level team. |
| Completing more than one set in one episode. Impressive pacing, no way this keeps up. Looks like they can't win |
 |
| I think Tsukushima will be the KEY of this final against Ushijima. |
    |
| It's meh so far. Fortunately, the introduction part is nearly over so things should pick up from episode 3. |

| Signature. |
| Karasuno lost the first set grrrrrr |
| holy crap that was intense as hell!! |
 |
| Nishinoya is cool! I'm liking Kei's moments too and how Nishinoya is helping him shape up indirectly. Kageyama was cool too! Daichi as well. The redhead annoys me. The ED really destroys the hype. Otherwise, really cool episode. |
 |
| You just feel the tension between the two. The pacing is good so far. |
