The video started with "go daddy daichi" and ends with tears
HAHAHAHAHAHAH
"He Leads The Leader" The Iwaizumi Political party accepts your slogan for our agenda
HAHAHAH this was hilairous
🫡🫡
Can I join...?
...I just don't cheer for him 'cause he "doesn't like guys that get cheered up by girls"...^^'
X'D
Lachy, eyes glassy with tears during an emotional scene:
"Hinata, please put the dogs away."
Had me laughing so hard😂😂
I coudn't help it hahaha
Shattered....
Always has been 😢
There is still more shattering to happen a bit
Now you know why I said that 24 is probably the most impactful episode of the season.😂
Honestly, I'd be more surprised if epi 24 didn't affect you.. 😂
I've watched Haikyuu so many times, but there are 3 scenes in s1 that still bring me to tears:
1. Asahi shouting SUGAAAAA in ep 9.
2. Ikejiri and Michimiya's (Daichi's friend and girlfriend, lol) regret in Winners and Losers episode.
3. Seeing my babies cry as they eat. 😭😭😭
It's okay big boy 😁
“This team was a victim of a bad coach” YES, THANK YOU! They were kids and there was no one to guide them during junior high ugh.. I really like Kindaichi and Kunimi and can totally understand both theirs and Kageyama’s sides on what happened during their last match together.. 🥺
Lachy: As long as Oikawa doesn’t serve
Oikawa: *smirks*
Lachy: *rage*
Me: 😂😂😂
No matter how many times I’ve watched this, Haikyu never fails to make me tear up! Ugh.. this loss was really hard but they needed this.. our crows are evolving 😭🥹❤️
Their old coach was the only really villian hahaha
@@lachyywhite I can assure you bro that the old Kitagawa Daiichi coach is the only villain in the whole series.
This was an incredible match. Something that gets overlooked is how the girls in the stands showed up really just to cheer for Oikawa, and didn't really care about volleyball. By the end they're applauding the opposing team, and have an appreciation for the effort everyone left on the court.
Yes indeed it's super realistic to real games
The ending is what made me absolutely love this show. So often, when you see an anime with a sports team, they always win. But the losses can be just as, or more important.
The episode 24 post-credit scene I lovingly refer to as Sad Feast
Every sport anime I watch there always a moment where they lose.
I know you like haikyuu that doesn't mean other is less good
It definitely made it a lot more realistic!
@@CasualGamer669fair, but I don’t think the user said Haikyuu was the best sports series though. Thats just what made them keep interest in the show.
@@CasualGamer669well no if you watch other sports animes, their momentum is built on them winning. haikyuu definitely has a more holistic and realistic view of doing a high school sport, with some impressive metaphors.
Remember to watch the first OVA before season 2!! It gives context of a new character.
OVA's are usually the same length as an episode but its usually like a side story that they couldnt include in the actual anime(think of them as a longer post credit scenes, or those clips of deleted footage)
The name of the one you should watch is "The Arrival of Haiba Lev" (Japanese: リエーフ見参けんざん!, Riēfu Kenzan!)
(I will leave a proper comment once i watch the whole video, but i wanted to let you know about this as soon as posible♡)
the "no he is getting the flashback power up" cracked me so much.
also the dinner scene never fails to make me cry, I cry like a baby even more that I cried with some character 💀
I can't wait for you to watch season 2
I knew it was over once he got the power up hahah
Hell yeah, brother! I'm over the moon that you love the poster! On to season 2!!
Over the *moon* , you say??

Absolute king!
"This position, this timing, this angle" remember those words. They're crucial to understanding the freak quick and play small but huge part in the coming seasons.
Everyone has to lose in order to grow. This epsiode is the reason i would push for my kids to play in team orientated sports, win and lose together, there is no greater experience in life.
For Graduating High School Students in Japan, they usually are heavily encouraged by their teachers to focus on their studies to prepare for college--
that means letting go of extracurricular activities like Volleyball. It's a Japanese culture thing-- they will be pressured, but not forced to quit Volleyball.
The talk among the Coach Takeda, Daichi, Suga, Asahi, as well as Shimizu since she is at her 3rd year, is a heavy topic because of this.
With only so much tournaments left to join, they can either make the most of it, or let go and focus on their academics--
but as we just saw, they're determined to work things out~
Goodness I love Haikyuu!!
From what I've seen, specially from my job, Japanese work culture can be brutal. A gap in a CV of a few months playing volleyball could potentially hinder your career massively. That's why the decision for 3rd years' is rough.

何の仕事をしてきたかは知りません。
しかし、バレーボールの経験を履歴書に書いて、何か不都合があるということは、一般的にありません。
むしろ、部活動は就職や進学に有利に働く事が多いです。
その人の精神と身体が、鍛えられていると判断されるからです。
このシーンで、３年生が部活動を引退する事を推奨されるのは、春のトーナメントが、一般的な就職試験や大学入試と時期を同じくするからです。
より良い企業、より良い学校に合格する為には準備が必要です。
ダイチとスガとシミズは学業が優秀です。教師も、彼らの将来を期待しています。彼らは、バレーボールに２年６ヶ月間をプレイしてきました。
更に４ヶ月プレイを続けるより、次のキャリアの為に時間を使うのは自然な事です。
なお、この議論にアサヒは関係ありません。彼の次のキャリアを、難しく複雑に考えていなからです。
及川と岩泉も、バレーボールを続けます。彼らの次のキャリアもバレーボールだからです。
@@MsCyou0157 Right, I think that's what the teacher is pointing out when he says that the time they spend playing volleyball is the time their peers are using to study for the upcoming exams. Their academics will likely not suffer, but they won't have the extra time for exam prep, potentially putting them at a disadvantage.
But I like hiw Takeda-sensei phrases it, advising them to consider what they'll regret in five or ten years. I think it's clear that the think they woukd regret is not playing in the spring tournament. They finally have a team that can fight against these top teams, if they leave now before reaching the finish line, they'll look back as adults and wonder, "what if?" I doubt they'll have those same feelings about extra exam prep.
This is absolutely true. Entering college is viewed as extremely competitive in Japan, which is also why Takeda points out that those who quit their clubs to study more will have an advantage over them.
@@Persewna4
貴方のいう通りだと思います。
私も、武田先生のアドバイスに同意しますし、
３年生がバレーボールを続けてくれて良かったと思います。
しかし、あの老教師が日本人以外の視聴者から過剰に批判される事が多いです。狭量で支配的な悪い教師だと言われることが多いです。
それは、違うと主張したい。
彼は、高校生３年生の為にキャリアのアドバイザーを専門としています。
「進路指導担当教諭」と言います。
生徒が、希望するキャリアに進めるように手伝うのが、彼の仕事です。
彼は悪い教師ではありません。
彼の視点で、生徒の為に行動しているだけです。
それを、理解していただきたいと思っています。
I find it hilarious how you're the second volleyball player reactor I've seen who has called out Oikawa for always being up to serve. SOMEONE CALL THE REF!!!
STOP THIS MAN hahah
Haikyu is so real. It reflects real life. So in real life we can’t expect every beloved characters grow up to be professional volleyball players. I really love this part where the 3rd years need to choose that they will get back to focus on studying or continue the club activity. It’s no absolute answer in my opinion. Takeda is a really good teacher to tell them only to choose the choice they not gonna be regret even what future lies ahead after they graduated.
I agree, I like the way Takeda phrased it. He's not telling them what he thinks the "right" answer, he merely asks the question so they can each decide what is the best answer for them.
It was done in a super realistic way and I loved it!
The university entrance exam is a VERY serious affair in East Asia, and it's actually true that the "name of your university" plays a big part in job acceptance. I don't think that's how things should be, nor does it justify the teachers' disregard of Daichi and Suga's values. (I don't like that the teachers aren't listening to them.) But I also see how the teachers' concerns may be coming from a pretty genuine place, considering the social norms.
"THIS MAN IS ALWAYS SERVING" - truuuuu he really be working the court tho 💅
HAHAHAH this is great!
you recalling how Iwaizumi is another really good leader because he leads Oikawa is SPOT ON! also pointing out how their middle school coach failed Kageyama, Oikawa, Iwaizumi, Kunimi and Kindaichi is everything. At the end of the day, they were all kids and no one but the adults are to blame for what happened
Their old coach is the real villian!
The spring game that Daichi is aiming for is the national tournament. It is scheduled to be held in January, but the university entrance exam will be held a few days after the finals. To summarize, if you don't make it to the finals or lose in the finals, you will face the entrance exam without being able to change your mind. There is no problem if you have basic academic ability and psychological strength, but there is a possibility that you will fail the university entrance exam if you lose the match. That's what Professor Takeda is worried about.
Not gong to lie, when you sad "Eat and become stronger" yesterday in your AoT react, I cackled knowing what was to come in Haikyuu.
The fact that Karasuno lost is what propelled this series to the top for me. It's one of the more realistic portrayals of sports in media. Sometimes you can do everything, train your hardest, and just hit your limits. Sometimes you just aren't good enough to overcome a wall like Seijoh/Oikawa. How you rebound from that loss, how you decide to go from here, is just as important as preparing for a match itself. The game is not just physical, but mental as well.
OMG you're so right! I totally forgot I said the same thing hahahah
Oh man... Here we are, absolute soul crush, heart break, life shattered...
I just love this finale. Haikyuu is a story about growth, development, to learn to stand on your feet and learn from any blow you receive and keep looking to the future... "Does losing prove that you're weak? If you stay on your hands and knees, that proves you're weak"
Man, each time, It never fails to make me cry, the attachment I have for these kids after years of watching this show, the amount of love I have for Haikyuu... Just perfect, the message, the characters, the story.
Can't wait for Season 2! And remember Lachy... Haikyuu only gets better and better with each season!
This season was amazing and this episode was absolutely my favourite episode so far!
Somehow, the meal scene consistently brings a tear. I know how that feels, and it's too close to home and that's what elevates Haikyuu compared to anything else, I've been in the same position in so many scenes
Anyone who's played a sport can feel that relation
I really like how they didnt win all the time, one could asume that as the protagonists they would win all their matches, but they showed us that even though they are the main characters, they can also loose, which makes the rest of the matches more tense, because you know they already lost once they can always loose again; but they needed that loss as motivation and as a way to show that you cant always win
I agree, it does make it more realistic
38:52 Your rant about school is a bit off. 🤣 This isn't about the teachers and counselors discouraging them from playing sports and focus on schools. They have college entrance exam coming up and the more time they spend on volleyball the less time they have to spend on studying for the entrance exam. As you know, school is extremely competitive in Japan (and other Asian countries like China and South Korea), so missing out on studying time will give them a huge disadvantage in the entrance exam. Like Asahi said, he wasn't planning to go to Uni, so he wasn't worried, but Daichi and Suga both were planning to attend Uni, so they had to consider their futures. The teachers and counselors were just looking out for the students' futures, as they should.
OMG I CAN'T WAIT (btw that haikyuu poster looks SICK! love it)
"He's getting the flashback power up" BYEE 😹😹😹 also that imagery with Kageyama throwing away the crown and cape destroys me
What a great experience it has been to share this season's journey with you, im looking forward to the next one! 🫂🫂🫂
true
Thanks so much for your kind words, and I'm really glad you've been enjoying the reactions! I'm so excited for season 2!
something you'll notice about haikyuu is that the author LOVES doing parallels to show character growth -- you noticed it already with the "this timing, this angle, this position" being the same as the first time the boys did the quick, but there's also one with the conversation iwaizumi and oikawa have after the game. kageyama read that oikawa would, with his back to the wall, pass to his best friend since childhood (which was a point that ended the set), and oikawa then read that, in a moment of desperation, kageyama would send it to hinata -- someone whom he met, like, two months ago, but whom he already trusts wholeheartedly (which ended the game). i bring you this analysis to distract from how much these episodes hurt my heart even though ive rewatched/read haikyuu SO many times.
onto season two!! it only gets better from here!!
Hmmmm you're so right I'll have to keep an eye out for this!
Some cultural context: In japan, one of the ways you can only get a job that allows you to at least pay the bills is by working in a company. Most companies discriminate over those that have college education and those that don't (there was even a point where there was hiring based off blood type--which is almost like hiring based off zodiac sign). So, in Japan, if you don't get a college education then you might be living life as a part-timer indefinately. This is actually the same for South East Asian countries (a degree is mandatory) and I believe Korea as well.
That being said, Japan (and much of asia) also lacks the educational support system to address specific needs outside of general academia (there isn't really a Special Education, or Advanced Placement program. There's Cram School which is after-school reviews often taken by kids entering college). This is likely what teachers mean if the 3rd years continue to play sports. They'll have to quit Cram School, which helps them get into college, and thus have a well-paying job.
In this case, I would say their options are: cram while doing club, do club AND cram school (which tend to be on the same time, so that's pretty impossible), or quit one and do the other. That's what prioritising club over school implies.
I love how this anime is so realistic. From the balls, the sounds, the movements, but also the fact that it's not just some fairytale story where they always win everything. There's a real genuine feel to the team, their struggle, their development, their growth. It's all so realistic it's almost like it's a part of you as you watch it, like you're one of the players, you're part of the team. It's such an amazingly scripted, drawn and edited anime. Will always be one of my all time favourites, and it just gets better and better from here.
The amount of small details the show includes is absolutely insane!!
46:01 Hinata and Kageyama letting out their emotions at the end is so good, I think Kageyama always had gaps in enthusiasm with his team mates in junior high, and he was so afraid of it but Hinata has the same energy and let it out so Kageyama also was able to let his emotion all out.
It was definitely a needed moment!!
"The character development is fantastically done" oh you poor soul, if only you knew XD
an absolute emotional rollercoaster of the ending of a season!! i like all of haikyuu, but i think it gets even better the further we go, so im very excited to see your reaction to what comes nextt
watching haikyuu with you is like getting to experience the same emotions i had when i first watched it
I was absolutely getting thrashed on that roller coaster hahah. I'm so excited for season 2!
"Hinata, please put the dogs away" had me choking on my mango- 💀💀
Hahahah i couldn't help it
By the way, your videos are what made me finally watch Haikyu! I've always known of the show cause it was sooo popular in my school (I'm from Japan and season 1 was airing when I was in junior high). Never actually watched it till I came across your videos, so thank you for that ❤️❤️
NO WAY! That's so cool, I'm really glad I was able to convince you and I really hope you enjoyed it!
I remember having this moment with my high-school baseball team. We were undefeated all seasons, and our season closer was against the only other undefeated team. They were famous for having a prodigy pitcher who was really really good.
We went and in the first game we utterly destroyed them. We got in the pitchers head and ended up mercy ruling him in the second inning, and by the 6th inning it was 9-0. But then, it rained and a bolt of lightning shot. Baseball being a sport where you hold metal sticks, means the game has to be canceled.
Unfortunately when that happens instead of continuing from the inning you are at, you restart the entire game. We played very hard, but in the end lost 5-6, the last out was because one of our batters stumbled on the way to first and lost a step of speed. The loss was hard but it was magnified by having our earlier success snatched away from us, and it finished out our season with a single loss.
It was a very quiet pizza party after that 😭
Hmmm I'm sorry to hear that, everyone who's played sport can relate to that feeling of brutal loss
About the school thing, it's not like the teachers are discouraging them. They are just worried for their future. Idk about other countries but in Asia, especially in East Asia, education is a big thing. Their grades do matter big time because the competition for work is very very tight and the school you got into during uni will usually determine if you get in or not. And as the teachers said, those time they are spending in extra curricular activities that most probably won't matter in their career paths, will become their disadvantage and might become their greatest regret.
I think it's so touching that Kageyama and Hinata's quick attack was anticipated because of Kageyama's growth!
I also like the harsh reality that if you lose, you have to immediately give up the court to the next team without any time to dwell on it...
And then, there's Takeda-sensei's speech to Hinata and Kageyama after the match! Even he's not very familiar with volleyball, Takeda-sensei is truly a great teacher!
That part with the other team coming onto the court killlleedddd me!!
Fun Fact, Studio that made haikyuu had no idea it will get that popular after first season, they made more money out of it than they expected, and decided to throw a bigger budget on the 2nd season. You'll see just from episode one of S2, that animations and drawing are better than S1 had.
Ooooo okay I'm very excited
i was choking on tears when i first saw epsiode 24, like full on ugly cry butafterwords i was in awe and sorta greateful they wrote it like this. so many sports anime the main cast wins over and over and over with no real huge scary losses. so the experince of the team that weve been cheering for losing. espically its because Oikawa read Kageyama correctly because hes starting to trust...gutted but you can feel how nervous and threated oiwawa feels by the fact kageyama is trusting and is on such a good team. He knows they are going to be a force to be reckoned with early on
im hyped for season 2!
It was easily my favourite episode so far
Welcome to haikyuu :')
Daichi suggesting the third years leave is so funny to me like. He's probably the least replaceable of them?? Tanaka will make a great ace when asahi leaves, and suga's not even a starter, but daichi is one of literally two people on the team who is any good at receiving XD where do you think you're going
Tbh if i was in kiyokos shoes i would let it go to my head. "I have a posse of boys who adore me. They worship the ground i stand on" like?
I wouldve been so sad if he left!
Any athlete, regardless of what kind of sport it is, who has experienced a hard loss where everyone put in 150% felt that end scene. The first time I saw that scene, I cried like an absolute baby.
You're so right, it was a sucker punch
Never feel bad for how much or little you commentate or what it happens to be about. This is a show of powerful emotions, and we're here for you through the good and bad, to support as a team. :)
Yes I was so ropped into it hahah
The haikyuu training arc begins now
Congratulations, you're one of us now! It hurts but its worth it
You know you're a true anime fan when you can predict the outcome based on the character's flashbacks 😂
Just a couple things to note: baka is an insult, usually translated to mean idiot. Second, in the match between Seijoh and Shiratorizawa the score looked close but the wasn't actually that close. Yeah the final set was close but if you look closely it was the second set so they lost two straight sets and didn't win a single set. You might remember in the flashbacks that in middle school they lost every single match against Ushiwaka and only ever managed to win one single set against him. So at this point it looks like Ushiwaka is just an unstoppable force and he really has Oikawa's number.
Hmmm he seems like a fully grown man playing in high school hahah
40:34 I love this scene so much. From the angles, to the dialogue, to the animation…it’s all to emphasize the might of Ushijima.
He seems like a fully grown man hahah
Japan has a very strong education\work culture, so it's pretty understandable why counselours would want students to focus on education part of school life in last few months before graduation, so they can spend time preparing for college. They are not opposed to them partaking in sport activities, especially since Karasuno was once a powerhouse, so their Volleyball team is pretty known and teachers know importance of sport for the boys. But Sugawara's case is particulary delicate, because he is not on a main roster, so there is a bit more to consider.
In the end, counselors have student's best interest in mind.
I think everyone that I see watch this show loves it, but it so hard to sell to people.
The oikawa rage is real, the tears are real another banger reaction fella.
Season 2 has the best character/player development for me plus you'll get some new favourite characters too.
I love how everyone's reaction to the 3rd years leaving is Daichi is my favourite.....and Suga.....wait and Asahi.....actually I love them all.
Ps your dad sounds like an absolute champion.
Thanks so much for your kind words brother! I always appreciate you. If the third years had left I would've thrown hands hahah
Man, that end credit scene of episode 24 😭 get's me every time!
Brutalllll
If you remember my comment from episodes ago about yamaguchi having a lil crush on someone in season 2, I’ll actually squeal of happiness if you’ll notice the small detail that almost everyone misses😭😭🙏
THIS MAN IS ALWAYS SERVING
you bet he is lolololol
I swear he is!!
Season 2 is literally therapy from season 1
HAHAHA I'll need it
I still love how you get so angry (or annoyed) with Tsukki all the time 😂👍
I laughed at the flashback powerup 🤣🤣
I knew it was a GG hahah
When I first watched this show I was so sad Karasuno lost that match. But with time I can't imagine a better outcome because so many things that happen in the future (their growth as players and as a team) were rooted in this moment. The goals, the taste of defeat and effort to get up, the push for becoming better, the support they have for each other, the trust the coach has in them etc. This moment made them so much stronger.
It does make it very realistic to what really happens!
In countries like Japan, Korea and China (maybe other asian countries) the third year of High school is considered the most important year where you only study and apply for colleges and go to study lessons even after school is over, so it is discouraged to do anything else in the third year. I don't know if you remember but when Date Tech lost the match the third years said goodbye even though they could still play in the spring tournament to qualify for nationals but they made a different choice then Asahi, Suga and Daichi
The end of season one is the reason why this anime is so good, it's not scared to show how it's like in real life. The scene where they are eating after the match is so heartbreaking, seeing them so defeated and crushed makes me cry every time. I love these characters so much, i'm glad we are finally at season two. The start is the comfort we need after such an intense end of season one
It was very beautifully done! I am so keen to start season 2 now
About the third years - The system is very different in Japan. Your grades can literally be everything for you and it shows. Unlike in the west where the grades are kinda overrated in Japan they are looked at a lot. The way you find a GOOD job is by going to the right school where they will scout you themselves. A lot of schools have partnership with particular companies and if you want to work for them you need to get there - to get there, they will have requirements. Even when hiring the grades you had matter. And since the grades matter this much the amount of work those kids put in is absolutely crazy - they will be studying all day every day in the third year, just to get to that school. That is why Takeda said "The time you spend in the club they spend studying." - Its not a question of "I can study after the club" as this is already expected and all the others were also doing it before... so it was a really big decision and I respect the adults for making them think - its not an issue of good or bad choice but more of "make the choice you wont regret so you better think properly before making it"
As for why nobody was surprised Shimizu showed up - she has nobody to hand the work off of to - it would be much tougher for her to just quit since she has nobody to cover the spot - if she quits, no more managers for Karasuno.
Anyways thats just small educational window I wanted to make :D I am so hyped we are finally past the season one - after this many rewatches its such a slog to go through the "we are getting to know everyone" part of the story :D WELCOME PAST THE PROLOGUE :D
Watching you knowing the outcome is so hard. Makes me want to cry honestly. And of course Izazumi echos the words you said before. And you know even though they lost... they have grown so much that in a way they won as well. They have gined the skill to keep going on just not in this tournament. I love Tekeda's words. He may not be a coach when it comes to knowing the game, but he knows how to lead. I am sure he is an amazing teacher for sure. The dinner at the end of 24 always breaks me. And episode 25 was what cemented Yamaguchi a fav for me. He wants to improve so he does work hard. It isn't as easy for him as it is for the others so he determines to work harder. I think the last half of the episode is all about the choice to go on. Everyone had the opportunity to give up and decides not to. I honestly think that season 2 is my favorite. So excited!! Thank you again for an amazing reaction!!!
The episode was gutting but you're right they can grow so much from this, I'm so excited to start on season 2!
I made it!! I caught up to you!! 😁
Let me tell you that I really enjoyed all your reaction videos of Haikyuu S1! You did a really great job and I was instantly hooked on your reactions!!! 😊
I am a fan of Haikyuu for the last 2-3 years or so... ever since I stumbled upon this Anime! And it is such a feel good show!!! There are a LOT of Anime out there, that are great, that I have watched 5, 6, 7 or 10 times... BUT... I have lost count of how many times I have watched Haikyuu!! Is it the 50th time? I don't know. Most of the time I now watch people like you watching this amazing Anime. They are all great, there is no one to hate, you want to cheer for everyone, you can feel the love for this sport in every episode, you are sad and happy at the same time... the characters are so different, so deep sometimes and so funny the other!
I am really looking forward to your reactions to season 2! This season is my personal favorit!!!! Thanks & Greetings! 🇦🇹
I really appreciate your kind words and I'm super grateful to have you here with me! It's definitely got me hooked and I'm super eager to make my way into season 2
How you’ll take this will differ depends on what kind of high school you went(in Japan). In Hikyu, they mentioned that some of them are from academic class(which meant that their main goal is to go to college, at least initially) Which means they knew they had to make decisions at some point. It was never a surprise. So I do understand where teachers come from where they do need to point out academic view point. I do love Takenaka ‘s approach where “My job is to keep thinking for better outcomes”(think this was few episodes ago)as in, it’s not teacher’s job to figure out what is best for students, but to keep giving opinions and perspectives for them.
Do you think Losing makes you weak?....I think staying on the ground makes you weak.....
AMEN!
SEASON 1 a wrap. Only peak anime from here. Poster is so great. Love it.
I'm so excited for season 2!
The season 1 finale is definitely when I REALLY got hooked on the show, they really make you feel every emotion in this anime which is why it's the GOAT.
It was easily my favourite episode!
"It's just a sports anime it's not worth crying over" The anime in question:
Despite somehow ripping my heart out, episode 24, especially Ukai's little speech, is one of my favorite moments in Haikyuu. The episode really hit home for me and was actually very comforting to me in the time of my life when I watched Haikyuu for the first time. Great reaction as always! Looking forward to your reactions to season 2 :)
This easily cemented it as one of my favourite shows!
Hi lachy, I just wanted to mention a little something I find off...I think the actual show's brightness is a bit too low. I think it is kind of hard to exactly figure out what's going on. Would appreciate it if you could increase the brightness a lil' bit ( it might just be me tho )
I will do my best! Some times I have to lower it a lot for the copyright!
"subscribe so we can drug test ushijima" LMFAO
Gotta catch him out!
I felt so bad for laughing during your last reaction when you said, "So I guess they go onto Nationals after winning this one." xD But it's gutsy as hell that they went this way with the story and the characters - there's no plot armor here. They need to get better and prove themselves. You're gonna absolutely love season 2. :)
YOU ALL KNEW!!! hahaha
Calling Caseoh a "good little boy" LMFAO
the scene w them crying as they eat reminds me of a similar scene in spirited away, where in the morning after chihiro's been spirited away, Haku tells her what Yubaba did with her parents and gives her the rice ball, and its only as she eats that she finally cries, because she was so drained from everything that occurred the night before that she didn't even have the energy to cry until then.
I'm excited for you to watch season 2~ There are a lot of characters you'll definitely like😊
I'm starting it tomorrow!
in case no one else has commented on it, Japan is very study focused. As a nation they get kids to do cram school and extra tests and all that stuff from an early age, cause it is expected that you are going to a good school with good grades.
The teachers are commenting on the third years because in Japan, school starts in spring, and in essence, what they are worried about is that Daichi, Suga, Asahi and Kumiko are staying with a team when they are using what they see as valuable time to practice for end of year finals and graduating because they dont have that much longer to go to school
Ofcourse the third years all went, f that, we only have 6 months to go, we gonna see how far this thing can go XD
19:58 I know this must go by lots of people bc at this moment, if it is your first watch, you're mostly mad/sad/frustrated for the loss. But... they DO care.
Great reaction, and the mix is good. We know the music can't be included, but the voices come in loud and clear.
Yes... The end of season always makes me cry. It hurts, but it's necessary. Karasuno, while powerful, was inexperienced, and needed to fill their holes(pause)
I am eager to see how they pick themselves back up!!
I cry every time, with them when they started crying while eating, when Daichi said he wants to keep playing with his boys, when Hinata and Kageyama were expressing their frustration in the gym. I love this anime so much and I’m happy to have found another reactor who loves it too and isn’t afraid to show how immersed they are in it. S2 is going to kick ass!
This episode was an absolute roller coaster of emotions for me hahah
I am SO ready for the moon rise and training camp arc in general
The ending of season one is really rough but it does expertly springboard the rest of the show. Now they have been brought to their hands and knees we get to see them get back up put the pieces back together and move forward. I'm super excited to see your reactions to the next season, season 2 is my favorite season and builds really well on how season one ended. Looking forward to it
I am super excited to now make my way into season 2!!
sigh, the scene of all of them crying while eating always gets me 🥲 (ps. cant wait for you to start season 2!!! my favorite season by far!!)
It definitely hit me hard! So excited for season 2 though
We’re almost at my healing season!!!! Let’s goooo
Love your reaction, and I feel the same way again amazing and honest reactions. Keep it up will keep watching you my friend 👀
Thanks so much for your kind words! I'm so grateful to have you here with me!
Can we please please please turn up the volume of their voices in the anime more? I love feeling like I’m watching the game along with you and with their awesome voices so low, I can’t focus on the game or whats happening cause I just can’t hear them. 😢
I loveee how invested you get in the game and that poster is so so cool!! Wish I had one 😆💖
I'll do my best! In some points the copyright is super strict so I have to turn it down a heap unfortunately
You can combat that by pausing more! We love hearing your thoughts and stories anyway! 😉
I always wait for your videos. Seeing the perspective of a volleyball’s player it is amazing and makes me love the series even more. The vulnerability is appreciated! We all feel it with you. Waiting for season 2! A big hug from Mexico 🇲🇽
Thanks so much for your kind words! I really appreciate having you here to watch with me!
Love your passion, love your reactions! Are you ready for the next season? ❤❤❤
Thanks so much for your kind words, I really appreciate you being here to watch with me!
Hinata Shoyo, from the mf concrete.
You have deep knowledge of volleyball. That's why I like seeing your reactions to Haikyuu.
Like Karasuno's coach, he rejoices and grieves. I like it!
Thanks so much for your kind words! I really appreciate it!
I am so glad that you are greatly enjoying Haikyuu and let me tell it is only going to get better. Season 2 is my favourite season of all and it also has my favourite episode of all time as well can't wait for you to react to it.
Now I did promise you that I would let you know why Suga and OIkawa are my favourite Haikyuu and anime characters of all time and why I found them similar. Let us start with the obvious.
1. They are both setters. 2. They are both 3rd years, and 3. They both at somepoint in their volleyball careers lost their setter position to Kageyama albet in different ways and handled the situation differently.
Now the important ones
They are both hard working. They both have admitted that they are not naturally talented or gifted. They had to work hard to get where they are.
They are both very observant. They both made strategies from those observations. They both used their opponents weaknesses to their advantage. (references every episode Oikawa was in and for Suga episode 21 Senpai's True Abilities)
They also make their team the best they can be. While Oikawa brings out the full potential of his teammates. Suga makes sure is teammates feel good and alright so that they are playing at their best. Oikawa himself called Suga Mr. Refreshing because of the way he brings the morale of his team up. Different ways yes but still helping their team team to be their best.
They also both also have a nasty serve(which you will see in Season 2 later). Oikawa has his insane jump spin serve that lands before he does . Suga has his short serve which takes the Ace or main attacker out of the attack. Once again different yet the same. Once again Oikawa himself said. He maybe Mr. Refreshing but his serves are not.
So in conclusion they are very similar. Just do it in different ways and that is why I can relate to both of them and what has made them #1 of all time on my Haikyuu and anime list
You where very right, I loved the similarities between them. I am superrrr excited to go through the next season
The poster looks so good omg!... And the haikyuu one is nice too. 😂
I'm so sorry your favorite character (Oikawa) made you cry. 😂
Caseoh holding my videos together hahaha
Should we tell him what fly high is?
"Subcribe so we can drug test Ushijima" 🤣 you're the 2nd person i know who said this! The other reactor literally said he's on steroids 😅
He's a fully grown man and you can't convince me otherwise hahaha
Watch the OVA !!!! Before Season 2. Nekoma omake.
BTW S2 is gonna be insane!!!!
I'm watching the OVA tonight!
hahah sorry broski. i knew it would get emotional (i still cry everytime i watch the post loss dinner scene) didn't want to give you any spoilers lol
Hahahahah I know I appreciate you holding it in
Oh man. Yeah.
SO FAST!
Let me provide some additional information about the Japanese entrance exam system. In Japan, the third year of high school is considered a crucial period that can significantly influence one's career. This time is marked by an intense "exam war." Most students attend cram schools after regular classes and typically study for 5 hours on weekdays and more than 10 hours on weekends. As a result, it is common for most third-year high school students to quit their extracurricular activities and focus solely on preparing for exams.
Watching this for the whatever time it is still hurts! I'm so excited for you to get into the next season
Superrr excited to start the next season over the weekend
I can’t wait to see how mad he’s gonna get when the show makes him like tsukki 😂
Shhhhhh lolol I totally agree with you tho
LESGOOOO, season 2 will be a bang bro don’t worry ☺️
I cant imagine it gets better!
シーズン2へ 翔べ❤
The next arc is my favorite!!! The iconic and funny duo! And my baby Fukunaga will be there!
9:20 Hajime of all people wearing the "King" tank top :)
Saying early in this next episode so i wont need to pause later ; calling Tobio and Ushijima by "-chan" is used as an insult.
28:26 Ushiwaka-chan~ Tobio-chan
Could be cute, but supporting this is also how he calls "Tobio-chan" just "Tobio" in his head during his serious monologues last game
28:37 lol
31:04 I love voice breaks and fragile voice thingies - since this isnt quite a break
33:16 I want to control my body*. I want to control the ball!
41:20 was gonna say earlier that the pain just keeps hitting harder because theres no music to frame it, it's just a distraught teen wheezing in my ear
44:17 it's like this mix of funny and
44:32 yes
45:15 AYUMU JFC YOU CAN PULL BACK A LITTLE ON THE GOLDEN VOICE ACTING
YOU AND YUKI KAJI GOTTA CHILL WITH THE RAW EMOTIONS - i cant tell which of us needs a tissue
46:43 the smallest cutest little greeting
"Baka" means dummy, fool, idiot, etc. It's mostly used, at least in western appropriation, in a joking manner.
now it's gonna be improving even more rapidly, be even more spicy, you can't even imagine!!🔥🔥🎆
stay excited 😁🤭😏
