"I am built upon the small things I do every day, the end results are not more than a byproduct of that" - Shinsuke Kita, this is one of my absolute favorite
A life changing quote from Kita is about getting nervous before a game, and he basically says that guys feel nervous because in their hearts they want to do beyond their current capabilities and that's just ridiculous. For me is okay to want more, but do all the worrying and wanting afterwards.
Yes!! He says the only reason people need to get nervous is if they are trying to do better then their current capabilities. I always remind myself of this before comps in my sport. If you can do it in practice you can do it in competition
@@lolicon.8711 What I said isn't an exact quote, and I don't remember the episode number, but I believe it was not long after Kita's debut during the game.
The best leader is a hero. My favorite hero is an everyman, someone humble, modest, unremarkable on the surface. The only reason this pedestrian is at all notable is due to their strong will and work ethic. Despite their new-found talent and reputation they don't lose themselves. They are the definition of progressive growth, "little by little". To me this is the pure essence of Shonen... Now, whether or not Shonen lives up to this ideal is a whole other can of worms. At the very least it is the ideal most Shonen approach, and the ideal Shinsuke Kita has achieved.
I love people who genuinely and even excessively understands their limitations and still chooses to go above and beyond, not for himself but for those who he cares about. There’s something in it that makes me have hope in humans and of human will. I can’t put it into words, but if I had a chance to relive my life, I would like to be that person.
@@sockthief9138 For as long as we are alive we can still be that person. It's interesting how some people figure out their lives in their mid 40s. It seems like they wasted their youth and well they kinda did. But to make that change they couldn't dwell on it. Since they could never go back looking forward was the only way out. Same goes for us.
@@sockthief9138 As your first reply said, you can still be that person. As long as you've got that will, put in the work to implement those changes you want to make. It sounds like you already understand some of your limitations, so if there are people you want to be exceptional for, it's not too late.
Kita's weapon is his unwavering, exceptional competence. It's something that takes a long time to build up to, but is the fundamental building blocks of his character. It's what makes him so admirable, despite not having the crazy abilities of the Miwas or Kageyama, or Ushiwaka's physical advantages.
As someone always obsessed with the results, this video really changed my perspective of the work I do everyday. For example guys: if you choose to study or exercise everyday, the results are just the side effects. What's more important is that your actions are showing your discipline and perseverance.
*YOU DO IT RIGHT.* *AND YOU DO IT EVERYDAY.* *YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR BODY.* *YOU TIDY UP AFTER YOURSELF* *FOLLOW CUSTOMS* *AND PRACTICE VOLLEYBALL!* *REPETITION.* *CONSISTENCY.* *CARE.* *DOING STUFF "RIGHT" JUST FEELS GOOD.*
Kita really seems to embody inner peace and actual, fully realized self love. He is himself -content and confidently so. Really impressive writing and wonderful perspective. Just being secure in yourself can change so much about your own self perception and how it translates to your life as a whole
I don't want to say this changed my life after only a few days of watching it, but the 2 weeks after watching this video was the best weeks of my life. I really resonate with Kita's philosophy. He's now my role model. When doing everything, I always think something in the line of "What would Kita do?". Enjoy the process, the daily routine, do things right even the small things, and have confidence in yourself because you did enough. Thank you for this video
I´m of the same opinion as you on Kita´s job post graduation. When I saw the pages/panels, I was like: "Yeah, that´s Kita Shinsuke." It encapsulates everything he stands for. The daily actions and efforts he put into his work, with his yield as the product of this. And that Miya Osamu specifically buys from Kita later on just warms my heart! XD Kita is my favorite Inarizaki player. The way he faces the ordinary, daily life with such earnesty, the way he is so extraordinarily stable and reliable. The care he puts into everything and everyone around him is admirable.
Kita moved me a lot when I first saw him. I have played tennis all my life but I have never considered myself an outstanding player. I didn’t have a lot of raw talent, but I was blessed with a perfect height, a good mentality and the willing to put the hours in. Even though I don’t have a lot of achievements in the sport, I have some of which I’m really proud of. Now I’m playing again and for the first time in my life I’m playing as a young adult, with no pressure and enjoying it with friends. I know I will never achieve pro level, but that doesn’t stop me to being able to enjoy playing every day that I can, improving my daily habits, and being just a little bit better than I was yesterday. I’m playing with the hope of being better than when I was younger and played 4+ hours a day. With the right mentality, I might achieve it one day. One day at the time
Almost my whole life I felt like I am missing something ,I didnt like what I was doing ,I didnt like who I was ,I didnt like how I looked ,but then I came across many quotes from many great people that opened my eyes ,I thought that I had to look for something that will change my life ,but all along it was already there I just wasnt paying attention and its so easy in this modern life full of distractions, but finding your own happiness within yourself from all small stuff you do everyday ,the sunny day , the fresh smell of grass in the morning , little efforts you put in everyday. And its exactly quotes like Kitas that makes you realise that world is already beautifull place you just need to look the right way on it.
I don’t even watch haikyuu but I love this character so much. This kind of people in general is so so rare in fiction because they’re usually brushed off as a super small character because they’re just “not as interesting”, and it’s even more rare in reality. But in truth, they’re so precious
Yes, yes, yes! Kageyama is called genius, but he works his arse off every step of the way. He never assumes that he will be always better than anyone else, he swallows his pride and asks Oikawa for advice JUST to be better. Not many people, even grown-ups, would do that. Kageyama is my fav character for this reason - he works hard and hates wasted potential ("What have you been doing for those three years?!") , and him, not being understood for that - that hit too close to home. Kita is my second fav for reasons you highlighted in this video. He steadily builds his strength and leadership. He is that one stable thing in Inarizaki's crazy team - and he does it great.
wow. This is what we need. All of us. Having no enemies means having no external OR internal enemies. When we want more from ourselves than we have, we're condemning our own actions up until that point as not being enough. We are enough
Thank you for reminding me to appreciate the things that I've done so far, lately my anxiety is getting the best of me. I'm already 28 years old and still studying whereas my friends and prev. classmates are already having a family, business, and stuffs.
I've always felt sad about being in the background. I do all the work, make sure it's perfect but in the end, no one knows my name. Kita's philosophy somehow bought me down to life.
I'm crying watching this, all the feelings and lessons I learned from haikyuu started pouring down on me and I'm glad I stumbled on your video, thank you.
I cried after seeing Kita’s character the first time around after first watching Haikyu, and I cried again after stumbling upon your video. He is my favorite character in that I wish to embody his very ideals. Thank you for putting this together. 😊❤
I remember when I watched those scenes with Kita I dedicated pages of my journal just to write his words so I will never forget it. I cried when Ojiro said that Kita don't need to overthink about being happy and just be. Haikyuu hits me different that after I watched it I felt like I'm somehow gained confidence and trust myself because of its message. Thank you for sharing this insight to us .
waking up to this video changed, AT LEAST, my entire week. Thank u so much. Kita´s character means so much to me and it made me happy to see someone talking deeply about him and his phylosophy.
ive never watched haikyuu but this totally convinced me i love it when creators make characters that are like real like this. competiting in anything is scary bc we're always worried abt being the best and perfect but its cool to be reminded that doing something even for a performance or competiton is still the same fun thing it was from the start. and thats all that really matters. and its so cool theres like so many other things Kita does that seems inspiring just from this video to me. great work 😊😊
I think what you said about replaying is so true. I usually just go through the game at first. If after that I want more of it, I go again and explore everything. If i had enough I know I got everything I needed out of it
Kita's philosophies that I love: 1. do things right, and do them correctly. 2. whatever you do in practice, do it in game day. 3. results are a by-product of our consistency. 4. practices cleanliness and studies well. 5. be early, and work hard.
Was kinda wondering if am on the right track or not and shit I was already internally thinking"but am happy with this aren't I" and this video just confirmed it for me, thanks man 👍
omg i found this today and really appreciate it. this is an anime which I adore every character I feel proud and admire than, and felt I could learn but I never took time to truly understand what that was, seriously amazing channel good job

Hey, I think I needed to hear this. This wasn't demanding, but reassuring. I'm keen to be more intentional about trying this approach
i have a quite similar reason to why one of my favorite sports anime characters is sendoh from slam dunk. although ion know much about basketball, watching him really makes it obvious of his dedication, skills and expertise towards his own sport (such like oikawa). but a very interesting thing about him is that he knows when to compromise winning. he is aware of how good the other players within his radius were, and just, played with great sportsmanship, nothing more nothing less. and another favorite scene that truly made him one of the most well written character in sports anime IMO was that one time he sat by the beach, quietly fishing. he gives himself enough freedom to breathe life, despite having every potential to become a star player. and even after his fame and whatnot, despite the fact that even rukawa looked up on his skills, he remained simple, a word inherently close to being humble, just like kita. and it makes the viewers feel the same and want to contain themselves with the same peace in life. no sport is ever as important as breathing life, accepting things as they are, no principle is bigger than just wanting to breathe life bcs life is so short and unpredictable to waste on getting frustrated from fame and things that are obviously not gonna last.
Wow I'd never expect my comment to be shown in one of your videos, the level of respect and relatability I have for you just skyrocketed, especially since I too thought that for every self improvement philosophy I'm very sure Kita's mindset of how "You are the sum of your daily habits" is the foundation for every other principle, since it's also based on the book Atomic Habits, "You don't rise to the levels of your goals, you fall to the levels of your systems". Much Love, this is also the culmination of everything you've covered, since if you watch this and another Barou video afterward, it would seem to contradict each other, but as you said, "What works for you, works for you", and the way that Kita who was both smart and disciplined ended up a farmer is just perfect writing. Hope we meet someday as high value men, much love.
Congrats on 50K subs and here is to many more. Kita's advice is so good and simple that it is hard. I am someone who struggles with consistency. I tend to move like waves on a windy day. The weather will dictate the waves and it isn't always the best thing but it works sometimes. For years I have been trying to get into a set routine but think that is the wrong mindset. I am now trying to plan fixed actions that leave space for the waves. Steven Hollet and Chris Willamson were talking about how to avoid procrastination. In that conversation, they mentioned balancing the desire to do something, the cost, and the sacrifice. If you are like me doing what Kita does seems impossible but it isn't if don't box yourself in. Find the balance of a goal to move you forward and fear(motivation) to run away from. If you don't change what is the worst thing that will most likely happen and if you do change what is the thing you wish to happen. I hope you find your answers and grow.
What a beautiful message, thank you for sharing this with us all. I find the idea that we need not be more than what are daily work makes us, very comforting.
Who's crying? Who's crying? No, I'm not. Man, I'm beyond happy that someone made a very meaningful character analysis and appreciation about Kita. Shinsuke is definitely the anime character that I treasure the most, I resonate with him in many ways and I find him really peaceful. So much love for the best boy, Kita.
Thanks for the content, thanks for inspiring young men like me, via these beautiful anime series, and break them down to this lessons, it’s actually worth it content. Thanks bro you have gave me peace. ❤
This video made me think ofwhat i can really be in the future, despite all of the bad habits and other things. but life is life, we move on and fix the bad stuff. W vid
when i got this video on recommendation, i thought it would be a simple video, which i will watch and move to another one. it was a simple video, but it did much more than that for me. As you spoke of him and his principle, i started crying, everything resonated too close to my heart. thank you so much for this video. I am happy i found you randomly during the most difficult time of my life.
This video not only helped me to understand more a great character like Kita, but also helped to break a wall I had because of personal struggles. I always tried to "ritualize" my ways of changing, but fell back to my slouching self in the end. So, instead of making a change a big deal, why not just... making a simple and lowkey routine and enjoying the process? Might sound obvious for another person out there reading it, but that was exactly what I needed right now (to each its own, I guess). Thank you for your content and hope this rambling makes at least a little bit of sense.
I came back to this video for it's philosophy . Im someone who can't maintain a schedule . I am well aware that small actions become smt bigger . Yet i as i got older i forgot. Now im taking small steps towards a life i want.
I needed this video. I’ve been watching your stuff for a while now, and have been mildly provoked by your insightful interpretations of chaicters within haikyuu but this really managed to change an important part of my mind set that was hindering me before, and for that I am forever grateful.
Amazing. He is one of my favorite characters from this manga. I didn't know if someone would ever make a video about him. His future profession matches perfectly
i love him sm, what he said was so simple but very impactful for me especially as someone who is a bigger picture and result driven person, enjoying the process because it feels nice is really what's important
This video really got me thinking about where I could apply this in my life. These types of channels are my favorite. Talking and thinking about the lessons and meanings of things are really interesting. Thank you for the video, keep up the good work and take care of yourself.
if you sum it up kita basically says "practice what you do and you will do what you practice" being consistent and perseverance is the key to your every actions and the results will always follow but regardless of the results always aim for that consistent habits because that will represent who you are as a person
this is one of the best videos I've seen on TH-cam, thank you! :) I absolutely agree, the beauty lies in the simple, small things we do on the daily. We just need to pay attention to them and stop worrying about all the big things.
So glad you made this!! I love Kita so much and really admire his character traits. Got a special embroidered work of him in his rice field a couple years ago and I treasure it.
I honestly can't believe I've only just come across your channel. I've only watched 2 videos so far and your dives are so simple but so incredibly beautiful. Definitely going to binge everything. You now have another friend my guy 🔥🔥
... Someone once asked me, "Do you ever feel bitter over the fact that you're not a regular on the team, and amongst your juniors there's a genius to boot?" I never understood the exact definition of what it was to be a genius to begin with but upon hearing the question, I understood the general gist of what they were getting at. Every so often there will be someone who thinks that "people like Atsumu" were "good" from the get-go. But the thing is, if I practiced something from 1-10 every day, then people like Atsumu would have done it from 1-20. Or, they would have done the same 10 but in a more efficient or concentrated manner. They might also ask "instead of doing it 1-10, how about I tried it from A-Z, what would happen then? Now doesn't that sound interesting?" They're the kind of people who think about stuff like that. Even if they fail, even if they are hated and get ostracised by others, no matter whether they're right or they're wrong, even if they subvert something the rest of us hold in high regard, they're the kind of people who can't sit still without giving it a go. Even if they start coughing up blood from their lungs, they're the kind of people who want to keep on running, no matter what. There's going to be a lot of people in this world who make you go 'wow, I'll never be able to defeat them', and it's only natural that you think they're amazing people. I think that to be able to keep charging ahead is a talent in and of itself. You can call people like them whatever you like, the term "genius" isn't exactly an insult. That said, to think that they were "good from the get go", is to condemn yourself to a predetermined defeat without even playing in a match against them, and I also think it's very rude. ... I know you didn't really mean it that way, sorry for getting all serious about it. "... No. In this case, it's totally my bad for saying something so thoughtless. I still do think though, that monsters truly exist..." ... Yeah, yer right, I think so too. The kind of monsters who love volleyball day after day. We meet them, stand on the same court as them, and battle agains them with a net between us. I'm like a mortal who's stumbled upon a monster's banquet. Lucky me. - Kita, Shinsuke
damn - i just failed at something for the second time and this puts things in a crazy perspective. i gotta do more to make sure i don’t fail it again a third time. great vid.
Congratulations! And thank you, you introduced me to my absolute favorite anime, Blue Lock. I think that is because of your insights. Had I have not been introduced to your channel by your Vinland saga videos I likely would have never watched Blue Lock and I credit your analysis for making it my favorite anime. Here's to 50K more!
Great video and perfect summary of what Kita's way of thinking is! Thank you! Kita's approach to challenges is exactly how I go about for my music concerts. I'm a drummer and when I was young, whenever we had a big concert or when I had to play a small solo part, I used to get horrible anxiety attacks. I've learned his way of thinking before Haikyuu was being made but he reminded me of this simple fact: _Why should I be afraid of playing that solo part? I did practice it hundreds of times, we did rehears if with the band over and over again. I know I can do it! So let's just do it!_ With this way of thinking I actually could turn my anxiety into excitement! _I practised so much, now I wan to show the world what I can do!_ It might be viewed as a "simple" mindset but it requires a lot of dedication, at least at first. And what you get out of it is calmness and clarity. And gradually you will become "good" at it. Combined with the "being good means being free" quote, it's the first step to get ready to fly!
Lo voy a escribir en español porque así siento que me expreso libremente: Me ha encantado tu análisis de Kita, realmente su filosofía de este jugador es de las más sanas y más completas que pude encontrar. Hace poco me he dado un descanso de la universidad y me he dedicado a ir poco a poco, trabajando cada aspecto de mí mientras expresaba gratitud ante todo, y no saben cómo ha cambiado mi vida desde ese entonces. Me he sentido más completa y con más ambiciones que antes. No hay día en los que quiera aprender más cada día o tener más cuidado hacia mi cuerpo. El cuerpo del ser humano debe ser cuidado como un templo y esto Kita y Shoyo me han enseñado por completo. Muchas gracias por el video, me ha motivado más, amigo.
Beautiful video. I hope that people can find peace in this video. I hope for all the people who follow this great advice and still feels like maybe they want a bit more dont forget that these principles are still important to yourself and the others around you. Perspectives are great to add meaning and values to life , so make sure you keep to your principles while you add onto your life in other areas.
Thankyou for reminding how much i loved kita as a character and also the fact that results are just a bi-product, as I have forgotten it, my ideal that helped through my degree.
His quote about geniuses is very inspiring and important for people to hear. Geniuses are not aliens born with something special, they are normal people, who just train 100x times more than others. Calling someone a genius is acknowledging you don’t train as much as they do. That’s so important in Haikyu, because a lot of fans think that people like Kageyama are born like this, and it implies they did nothing special to get at the level they’re at. A genius is 100% a hard worker.
Well thank you so much its like ur a god send being who came to guide someone like me who always doubts myself despite putting all the effort even while "practicing" I'm scared of the result so i didn't really enjoy the process nor the result were satisfying. But now your words gave me new perspective. I hope you read this with a smile. Thank you lots of love!
I’m happy to see this channel! And looking forward to more great anime lesson and Haikyuu content. And with the Haikyuu film being released I hope you can also talk Coach Nekomata’s quote about the “the joy from doing should be what is important, first and foremost” and somehow great influenced the chosen career of Kuro.
Another absolute banger!, Congrats on the 50K bro! This one was really special, usually in Hiakyuu characters I see small fragments of myself and they help me understand how I deal with it, Kita however seems like an alien to me, It's these kinds of characters that really change up your perspective, really well done mate.
I'm glad this video is doing well tbh, I'm proud of this one.

Sometimes we forget the simple things or common sense and that's why a character like this is so impactful in the show and in everdaylife.
I'm crying watching this, all the feelings and lessons I learned from haikyuu started pouring down on me and I'm glad I stumbled on your video, thank you.
Glad I could help
I wish Haikyuu was released when I was in highschool. That's when I needed it the most.
I binge watched Haikyuu and then went back and searched for this episode of Season 4. Shinsuke❤
The most goated and simplist line ever said in an ANIME. A great scene about iteration of life and habits.
I'm currently in an artblock and this video has helped me have a pretty good mindset on how to approach work. Thank you kind sir! I needed this today!

waking up to this video changed, AT LEAST, my entire week. Thank u so much. Kita´s character means so much to me and it made me happy to see someone talking deeply about him and his phylosophy.
You're welcome 😊
ive never watched haikyuu but this totally convinced me i love it when creators make characters that are like real like this. competiting in anything is scary bc we're always worried abt being the best and perfect but its cool to be reminded that doing something even for a performance or competiton is still the same fun thing it was from the start. and thats all that really matters. and its so cool theres like so many other things Kita does that seems inspiring just from this video to me. great work 😊😊
this analysis really hits deep, thank you for the great video man. I really enjoyed watching it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I think what you said about replaying is so true. I usually just go through the game at first. If after that I want more of it, I go again and explore everything. If i had enough I know I got everything I needed out of it
Mam Kita resounds so heavily within me and you literally had me crying here, thanks for the video ❤
Kita's philosophies that I love:
1. do things right, and do them correctly.
2. whatever you do in practice, do it in game day.
3. results are a by-product of our consistency.
4. practices cleanliness and studies well.
5. be early, and work hard.
Was kinda wondering if am on the right track or not and shit
I was already internally thinking"but am happy with this aren't I" and this video just confirmed it for me, thanks man 👍
Glad to hear it!
you got it, man! I believe in you
@@yangene 🤝 thanks ma man, good luck to u too
omg i found this today and really appreciate it. this is an anime which I adore every character I feel proud and admire than, and felt I could learn but I never took time to truly understand what that was, seriously amazing channel good job
Hey, I think I needed to hear this. This wasn't demanding, but reassuring. I'm keen to be more intentional about trying this approach
bro's narration just healed my soul
He’s one of my favorite character, thank you for making this video.
im loving all your haikyuu videos, and would love eventually one about nishinoya, his way of thinking about things and fear really stuck with me
He'll get one eventually dw, I do kinda have one on him (the collab)
i have a quite similar reason to why one of my favorite sports anime characters is sendoh from slam dunk. although ion know much about basketball, watching him really makes it obvious of his dedication, skills and expertise towards his own sport (such like oikawa). but a very interesting thing about him is that he knows when to compromise winning. he is aware of how good the other players within his radius were, and just, played with great sportsmanship, nothing more nothing less. and another favorite scene that truly made him one of the most well written character in sports anime IMO was that one time he sat by the beach, quietly fishing. he gives himself enough freedom to breathe life, despite having every potential to become a star player. and even after his fame and whatnot, despite the fact that even rukawa looked up on his skills, he remained simple, a word inherently close to being humble, just like kita. and it makes the viewers feel the same and want to contain themselves with the same peace in life. no sport is ever as important as breathing life, accepting things as they are, no principle is bigger than just wanting to breathe life bcs life is so short and unpredictable to waste on getting frustrated from fame and things that are obviously not gonna last.
apologies from any grammatical error, eng is not my first language :[
TH-cam recommendation making wonders when I'm currently a mess and currently has no direction.
Thanks for this video.
Wow I'd never expect my comment to be shown in one of your videos, the level of respect and relatability I have for you just skyrocketed, especially since I too thought that for every self improvement philosophy I'm very sure Kita's mindset of how "You are the sum of your daily habits" is the foundation for every other principle, since it's also based on the book Atomic Habits, "You don't rise to the levels of your goals, you fall to the levels of your systems".
Much Love, this is also the culmination of everything you've covered, since if you watch this and another Barou video afterward, it would seem to contradict each other, but as you said, "What works for you, works for you", and the way that Kita who was both smart and disciplined ended up a farmer is just perfect writing.
Hope we meet someday as high value men, much love.
Congrats on 50K subs and here is to many more.
Kita's advice is so good and simple that it is hard. I am someone who struggles with consistency. I tend to move like waves on a windy day. The weather will dictate the waves and it isn't always the best thing but it works sometimes.
For years I have been trying to get into a set routine but think that is the wrong mindset. I am now trying to plan fixed actions that leave space for the waves. Steven Hollet and Chris Willamson were talking about how to avoid procrastination. In that conversation, they mentioned balancing the desire to do something, the cost, and the sacrifice.
If you are like me doing what Kita does seems impossible but it isn't if don't box yourself in. Find the balance of a goal to move you forward and fear(motivation) to run away from. If you don't change what is the worst thing that will most likely happen and if you do change what is the thing you wish to happen. I hope you find your answers and grow.
What a beautiful message, thank you for sharing this with us all. I find the idea that we need not be more than what are daily work makes us, very comforting.
Who's crying? Who's crying? No, I'm not. Man, I'm beyond happy that someone made a very meaningful character analysis and appreciation about Kita. Shinsuke is definitely the anime character that I treasure the most, I resonate with him in many ways and I find him really peaceful. So much love for the best boy, Kita.
Dude, you made me cry
Thanks for the content, thanks for inspiring young men like me, via these beautiful anime series, and break them down to this lessons, it’s actually worth it content. Thanks bro you have gave me peace. ❤
Love to hear that, glad it helped dude :)
Shinsuke Kita reminds me of Hirayama from the movie Perfect Days. I love them both.
I always go back to this video whenever I feel overwhelmed. This helps me slow down a focus on the important things.
The True Definition of Stoic.
This video made me think ofwhat i can really be in the future, despite all of the bad habits and other things. but life is life, we move on and fix the bad stuff. W vid
when i got this video on recommendation, i thought it would be a simple video, which i will watch and move to another one. it was a simple video, but it did much more than that for me. As you spoke of him and his principle, i started crying, everything resonated too close to my heart. thank you so much for this video. I am happy i found you randomly during the most difficult time of my life.
Glad I could help so much:)
I was always thinking at the back of my mind why I liked him despite his short screentime (and manga time). This was why.
This video not only helped me to understand more a great character like Kita, but also helped to break a wall I had because of personal struggles. I always tried to "ritualize" my ways of changing, but fell back to my slouching self in the end. So, instead of making a change a big deal, why not just... making a simple and lowkey routine and enjoying the process? Might sound obvious for another person out there reading it, but that was exactly what I needed right now (to each its own, I guess). Thank you for your content and hope this rambling makes at least a little bit of sense.
Glad it helped!
HES ONE OF MY FAVOURITE CHARACTORS
I came back to this video for it's philosophy . Im someone who can't maintain a schedule . I am well aware that small actions become smt bigger . Yet i as i got older i forgot. Now im taking small steps towards a life i want.
Literally cried the first time I watched that episode with Kita.
This is literally the concept of “Dharma” in Hindu Philosophy
Thank you for this. This made me Appreicate Kita's character more.
No problem 😊
He made me cry watching this series
I needed this video. I’ve been watching your stuff for a while now, and have been mildly provoked by your insightful interpretations of chaicters within haikyuu but this really managed to change an important part of my mind set that was hindering me before, and for that I am forever grateful.
Glad it was helpful!
Amazing. He is one of my favorite characters from this manga. I didn't know if someone would ever make a video about him. His future profession matches perfectly
i love him sm, what he said was so simple but very impactful for me especially as someone who is a bigger picture and result driven person, enjoying the process because it feels nice is really what's important
This video really got me thinking about where I could apply this in my life. These types of channels are my favorite. Talking and thinking about the lessons and meanings of things are really interesting. Thank you for the video, keep up the good work and take care of yourself.
Thank you, you too!
needs more views. this is revolutionary.
Thank you for making this, I've been having a rough time lately and this is a timely reminder! :' )
I am actually crying watching this. I love Kita so much, his ways are so grounding to me❤
if you sum it up kita basically says "practice what you do and you will do what you practice" being consistent and perseverance is the key to your every actions and the results will always follow but regardless of the results always aim for that consistent habits because that will represent who you are as a person
I know this video is not that old, but when I'm feeling down I get back to it
this is one of the best videos I've seen on TH-cam, thank you! :)
I absolutely agree, the beauty lies in the simple, small things we do on the daily. We just need to pay attention to them and stop worrying about all the big things.
Wow, thank you!
So glad you made this!! I love Kita so much and really admire his character traits. Got a special embroidered work of him in his rice field a couple years ago and I treasure it.
I honestly can't believe I've only just come across your channel. I've only watched 2 videos so far and your dives are so simple but so incredibly beautiful. Definitely going to binge everything. You now have another friend my guy 🔥🔥
Glad you like them!
You are a great motivational youtuber
Thank you so much 😀
... Someone once asked me, "Do you ever feel bitter over the fact that you're not a regular on the team, and amongst your juniors there's a genius to boot?"
I never understood the exact definition of what it was to be a genius to begin with but upon hearing the question, I understood the general gist of what they were getting at.
Every so often there will be someone who thinks that "people like Atsumu" were "good" from the get-go. But the thing is, if I practiced something from 1-10 every day, then people like Atsumu would have done it from 1-20.
Or, they would have done the same 10 but in a more efficient or concentrated manner. They might also ask "instead of doing it 1-10, how about I tried it from A-Z, what would happen then? Now doesn't that sound interesting?" They're the kind of people who think about stuff like that.
Even if they fail, even if they are hated and get ostracised by others, no matter whether they're right or they're wrong, even if they subvert something the rest of us hold in high regard, they're the kind of people who can't sit still without giving it a go.
Even if they start coughing up blood from their lungs, they're the kind of people who want to keep on running, no matter what.
There's going to be a lot of people in this world who make you go 'wow, I'll never be able to defeat them', and it's only natural that you think they're amazing people.
I think that to be able to keep charging ahead is a talent in and of itself. You can call people like them whatever you like, the term "genius" isn't exactly an insult.
That said, to think that they were "good from the get go", is to condemn yourself to a predetermined defeat without even playing in a match against them, and I also think it's very rude.
... I know you didn't really mean it that way, sorry for getting all serious about it.
"... No. In this case, it's totally my bad for saying something so thoughtless.
I still do think though, that monsters truly exist..."
... Yeah, yer right, I think so too. The kind of monsters who love volleyball day after day. We meet them, stand on the same court as them, and battle agains them with a net between us.
I'm like a mortal who's stumbled upon a monster's banquet. Lucky me.
- Kita, Shinsuke
He speaks right to the heart.
damn - i just failed at something for the second time and this puts things in a crazy perspective. i gotta do more to make sure i don’t fail it again a third time. great vid.
Good luck bro!
I play this video every morning.
Thats great lol, how long you been doing that for?
Congratulations! And thank you, you introduced me to my absolute favorite anime, Blue Lock. I think that is because of your insights. Had I have not been introduced to your channel by your Vinland saga videos I likely would have never watched Blue Lock and I credit your analysis for making it my favorite anime. Here's to 50K more!
Cheers bro! And that's great to hear, I always wondered how many people stuck around from my vinland saga videos
Great video and perfect summary of what Kita's way of thinking is! Thank you!
Kita's approach to challenges is exactly how I go about for my music concerts. I'm a drummer and when I was young, whenever we had a big concert or when I had to play a small solo part, I used to get horrible anxiety attacks. I've learned his way of thinking before Haikyuu was being made but he reminded me of this simple fact: _Why should I be afraid of playing that solo part? I did practice it hundreds of times, we did rehears if with the band over and over again. I know I can do it! So let's just do it!_
With this way of thinking I actually could turn my anxiety into excitement! _I practised so much, now I wan to show the world what I can do!_
It might be viewed as a "simple" mindset but it requires a lot of dedication, at least at first. And what you get out of it is calmness and clarity.
And gradually you will become "good" at it. Combined with the "being good means being free" quote, it's the first step to get ready to fly!
What an amazing insight! Thank you for making this video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Lo voy a escribir en español porque así siento que me expreso libremente: Me ha encantado tu análisis de Kita, realmente su filosofía de este jugador es de las más sanas y más completas que pude encontrar. Hace poco me he dado un descanso de la universidad y me he dedicado a ir poco a poco, trabajando cada aspecto de mí mientras expresaba gratitud ante todo, y no saben cómo ha cambiado mi vida desde ese entonces. Me he sentido más completa y con más ambiciones que antes. No hay día en los que quiera aprender más cada día o tener más cuidado hacia mi cuerpo. El cuerpo del ser humano debe ser cuidado como un templo y esto Kita y Shoyo me han enseñado por completo.
Muchas gracias por el video, me ha motivado más, amigo.
Glad it helped! (I used Google translate to read your comment haha)
Thank you, there is something beautiful about the process.
You earned a subscriber because of these Haikyuu contents!! Please keep making this!! You give me motivations ❤
Thank you! Will do!
Simply... thank you for this. I really needed this in my life!
The happiness of pursuit, instead of the pursuit of happiness.
北さんへの素晴らしい解説動画でした！！
Doing things right can be the reward itself
Beautiful video. I hope that people can find peace in this video. I hope for all the people who follow this great advice and still feels like maybe they want a bit more dont forget that these principles are still important to yourself and the others around you. Perspectives are great to add meaning and values to life , so make sure you keep to your principles while you add onto your life in other areas.
Thankyou for reminding how much i loved kita as a character and also the fact that results are just a bi-product, as I have forgotten it, my ideal that helped through my degree.
His quote about geniuses is very inspiring and important for people to hear. Geniuses are not aliens born with something special, they are normal people, who just train 100x times more than others. Calling someone a genius is acknowledging you don’t train as much as they do. That’s so important in Haikyu, because a lot of fans think that people like Kageyama are born like this, and it implies they did nothing special to get at the level they’re at. A genius is 100% a hard worker.
Btw, this same philosophy is also in Vedanta. " you work, do not care about the results..they are just consequences"
Truly exquisite dining on this channel;
Well thank you so much its like ur a god send being who came to guide someone like me who always doubts myself despite putting all the effort even while "practicing" I'm scared of the result so i didn't really enjoy the process nor the result were satisfying. But now your words gave me new perspective. I hope you read this with a smile. Thank you lots of love!
Glad I could help
Tears.. all your videos make me tear up
This made me interested in reading Haikyuu, thank you for the video
You should! I've read it several times and enjoy it more each time
I’m happy to see this channel! And looking forward to more great anime lesson and Haikyuu content.
And with the Haikyuu film being released I hope you can also talk Coach Nekomata’s quote about the “the joy from doing should be what is important, first and foremost” and somehow great influenced the chosen career of Kuro.
More to come!
Thank you for this video
No worries!
Another absolute banger!, Congrats on the 50K bro! This one was really special, usually in Hiakyuu characters I see small fragments of myself and they help me understand how I deal with it, Kita however seems like an alien to me, It's these kinds of characters that really change up your perspective, really well done mate.
Appreciate it!
😊 thank you for making such a good video. This is the first video i watch in your channel. Look forward for your video.❤
Hope you enjoy!
