Ukai Senior is full of life. Already love the dude! Our reactions to the next 7 episodes are out on Patreon for early access!! www.patreon.com/carlie_and_ange
For sure. It shows his experience and quality which is why he is better than Kageyama even though Kageyama is a genius. I think there was one more moment where Oikawa's and Ukai's thinking matched, with "No team is guaranteed victory" quote. Both of them said it at different times iirc. I love how subtle the series is with these type of stuff.. there are also other instances with other players that I don't see people notice lol
One of the biggest things to remember is how unrefined Hinata is. Hinata is a ton of physical prowess and instinct but he's simply not a trained volleyball player. He LOVES volleyball AND he wants to be better at volleyball but we saw his training circumstances: Getting his non-volleyball friends to help him, solo drills by himself and the odd practice with the women's recreational league. When Kageyama and Hinata figured out their quick, we can see it's very much a Kageyama led attack: He serves the ball into Hinata's striking arc and it's so reliable Hinata hits it with his eyes closed, which is absolutely incredible. Kageyama IS a refined volleyball player. He's not only a fan of volleyball, he loves it just like Hinata does but he had the ability to start REAL volleyball far before Hinata could. He's been in club volleyball playing with other people who also love volleyball for YEARS in comparison to Hinata. And it's (to me anwyay) kind of implied that the rest of Karasuno's regulars have a similar volleyball background to Kageyama and are all way ahead of Hinata in terms of volleyball skills. In the first practice match against Seijoh, Oikawa immediately picked out Tsuki and Hinata as unskilled players and even went on to target Tsuki's lack of receiving prowess. I feel the core of their argument is Hinata knows he's unskilled and if their Quick Attack can be stopped then he feels he has no place on the court. Kageyama now being able to see Karasuno as the full team it is, is realizing Hinata's lack of fundamental volleyball skills (Hinata is JUST learning Tempos which is something those kids under grandpa Ukai already knew and taught Hinata) could be detriment to the overall team balance once their quick is shut down. Kageyama KNOWS there's potential in Hinata but it's frustrating to not know how to bring that out in an underskilled player and, of course, Kageyama absolutely does not know how to verbalize that. Mix in the frustration of the season 1 loss plus the amount of diving drills at the practice matches EVERY loss and well, it all kind of imploded. They're both realizing they have to change and improve in order to keep their team together. But it's frustrating when you're in the moment and don't have the answer right in front of you. Luckily, that's what this episode was about! I love how Kageyama was immediately on board with learning this new way of setting. He does know he's partners with Hinata. He knows there's power in their connection. And Hinata knows he's got to improve overall as well if he wants to stay on the court. Jumping and swinging with your eyes closed is no way to play volleyball.
This episode destroyed the whole "Kageyama is selfish who doesn't want to let Hinata shine" thing. He ate his pride, asked Oikawa for advice, knowing how much the other hated him, thought about what he told him, analyzed it, took into account what Hinata said and made a decision. Sometimes I feel that people underestimate Kageyama too much and the boy is sometimes not even half of what they think ahshshs. People don't call him a genius for nothing, he knows about volleyball and so far it looks like he has grown not only to be a good individual player but also for a team. Does he need to grow?? Yes, I mean he's only 15 years old but that's why he continues playing, to be able to continue learning and growing, the thing with Hinata was something else with which he could learn and continue building himself as a person as well.
The thing is Hinata wants to stay in the court while lacking other important facets of volleyball(he can't serve, receive, nor block) and Kageyama just wants him to improve upon his fundamentals before he levels up on hitting(which ultimately takes a lot more effort on Kageyama in the end).
It's actually not about letting hinata shine or not. We know how kageyama's single mindedness ended up in his previous team and how he's trying to change and become a team player right now. But you might notice if you look carefully that he is overcompensating at times to be a team player and that will be talked about later on. So he saw hinata's stance as trying to topple the balance of the team..and fact is, he isn't actually wrong from one point of view. It's just he wasn't seeing pr understanding hinata's pov. But now he's thinking about it and doing his part to learn the new thing.
5:55 "ohhh this is Oikawas chance!" No no no, this is about Kageyama. 😂😂😂😂. Oikawa is a prideful and fierce competitor, he's not going to just easily give away information to a prodigy like Kageyama
Kageyama often dictate his teammates in the past, the coach is not guiding him enough unlike Ukai and Takeda. What I mean is, the coach is not explaining things for him, despite of his skills, of course he's a kid and the coach should set things straight for his players. His teammates doesn't have enough patience for his “kingly” or “dictator” attitude before unlike now that he has Karasuno especially having Hinata by his side. I'm not blaming the past coach and teammates he had before, just wanna clarify. He has now seniors who doesn't just understand him, but also guides him to grow as a player and an individual, that teamwork and adjusting for one another is important. He was destined to be with Karasuno. Many people has been undervaluing or undermines Kageyama's lifetime hard work because he's a “genius” or a “ prodigy”. That boy grew up working hard to be in that level, but just not guided enough. But now, he's evolving, developing, and growing🤍
just like there are players who learnt from experiences (yet still learnt just enough), there are coaches who can coach based on their experience, goals, and values as well. despite that, they can also just coach what best for the team at the moment
This was a great training episode for everone. Love how other members are also inspired by Hinata's thirst to improve and they do not want to restrict themselves to their weapons. Always trying out new techniques. Also, I believe everyone is trying out new things or improve sides they are weak at though we havn't seen them yet. For Kageyama, I feel the genius he is, made it hard for him to accept other's opinions. But he came back strong given his passion for volleyball. You could say we see another development on his character. Great reaction.Can't wait for the next episodes!!!!
The thing about what happened last episode is not about Kageyama not letting Hinata shine. Anyone can improve in their own like serves and receiving (which Hinata will explore in the future) but asking the team to change things up when the tournament is so close already actually does destroy team balance because they will make more mistakes in the court during games. Kageyama is overcompensating with the team mentality but it's not exactly wrong either. It just piss me off that I keep hearing negative things about Kageyama when his suggestion to Hinata to work on serves and receives during the fight is also very valid. Again this only worked out because Hinata is actually a really fast learner but put this in real life and I will tell you changing things up so close to a tournament will only lead to mistakes instead of actual improvement.
Omg I can’t wait to see y’all react to the next two episodes 😭 they’re some of my favorites of the season (only saying this because you’ve already watched them, I try not to hype episodes you haven’t seen because overhyping is so real!) ❤
9:21 I just want to praise Haikyuu for having the best ways to have people understand whatever they are talking about. Maybe people ARE into volleyball and know about tempo, but maybe they are not. And cannot even tell the difference at first glance, even with the replay. But leave it to Haikyuu to create a graphic that depicts exactly what it means without any loss of time or complications! HOLY JEEZ THIS ANIME IS SO GOOD!!
It's from this moment i was really hooked by the show, the incredible feeling to see the majority of players striving to improve individual weapons to make the team better, and the feeling you get like "they can go far as a team, i want to see the result" is something that is not so recurrent in sports anime, where it is difficult to see concretely in which areas and how the players are improving. This “realistic” side is very satisfying here.
You guys got the MVP wrong this episode. It has to be the nephew!!! 😛 The other players were trying to work on combinational attacks like what they saw with one of the teams in the camp who specialized in combo attacks
Damn. I've been skipping intros for a while now. I wasn't aware there was a GODLIKE Guitar cover before the reaction starts. Gotta get back on the previous reactions!
Although he does occasionally call them "Kunimi-chan" and "Kindaichi-chan". I also don't think he calls Yahaba by any special name. The rest of Seijoh, though... Nicknames are just a part of being the great king, Oikawa Hanger, I guess.
We are likely not going to react to it because we really want to go into that final special, completely blind! And it’ll also help avoid spoilers. Sorry guys! ❤️
@@hei7846 yea but they didn't breathe life into the team allowing them to grow. Remember, they all got crushed by date tech, so it's obviously the new blood
Carlie? Isn't Kageyama supposed to be a selfish person who intentionally doesn't want Hinata to progress? In this chapter he literally ate his pride and asked his greatest enemy and goal for advice. Are you still with the same idea? Just curiosity. (I know they have more chapters on Patreon)
Oh Patreons (and Carlie and Ange, of course) hear me out. I'd like to make a suggestion to a new show: RWBY. Its a show that started pretty small but has a great premise and despite the animation graphics(it's a cgi animation) are kinda trash in the first seasons, the fighting scenes are simply awesome, plus a lot of good characters. You can really sense the passion that has gone into it, especially in the OST, i really think Ange is going to love it. So here is my humble request an i hope someone sees it and second it enough to get it to the polls and you guys could react to it.
Hey dude, chill! No need to throw stones, I did not like her take as well, but people are allowed to misunderstand things from time to time. She seems to have realized Kageyama was not having an attitude.
@@LeonardoPostacchini I'm chill, Leonardo 😆😆😆 that's why I'm asking before watching. Sorry if that is too hard to understand 😊😊. And I can't throw any stones in youtube, we're online Leonardo 🤭

u meant Grandpa Ukai😅😂
The fact that Oikawa can point out the same thing as Coach Ukai, even though he's much younger, really shows that he's an amazing player
Yep. Thats why I always want people to understand Oikawa’s point in this episode.
For sure. It shows his experience and quality which is why he is better than Kageyama even though Kageyama is a genius.
I think there was one more moment where Oikawa's and Ukai's thinking matched, with "No team is guaranteed victory" quote. Both of them said it at different times iirc.
I love how subtle the series is with these type of stuff.. there are also other instances with other players that I don't see people notice lol
Oikawa Toru is a student of game!
Ange’s face when he realized oikawa was still the same after he thought oikawa will give Kageyama some wisdom 😂
Ange's face mirrored Oikawa's nephew's face perfectly lol
real MVP was Oikawa's nephew for taking Oikawa down a notch, but the coaches are a good choice too.
Just like to share , when tsuki and yamaguchi was walking , tsuki wear his headphones only when yamaguchi leaves
Good catch, I think he cares more than he let's on.
@@astroteddy5120always has been. And also the use of him being in the light from the post and then walking away towards the dark
"I want coach Ukai"
"I want the real coach Ukai"
"Perfection"

Fun fact: the VA who voices grandpa Ukai voices Garp from one piece 😁 both badass grandpas
they haven't watched one piece anime tho, (that can be a small hint.)
hope they react to it very soon tho hahaha
@@jnwhalien they watched the Live Action so they at least know who Garp is

I honestly don't get where did that idea of Kageyama being afraid of Hinata outshining him came from, but it's an interesting hot take.
I absolutely love these scenes where we can see them for work for improvement. It makes me want to work myself too 😂
Ange is GOAT for his predictions 😅

And then you get this 10:01 Ukai's head just turning bc he had his ideas turned over.

I'm so excited for you to see the Tsukki pay off. :)
Daddy Ukai and daddiest ukai
Can't wait to listen hey hey hey Hinata heyyy
I love the breakdown of the tempos!
So excited for the camp
Man... haikyuu! is awesome, and that's the best season.
Training MVP is the coach or the little kids with their comments.
You guys got the MVP wrong this episode. It has to be the nephew!!! 😛
The other players were trying to work on combinational attacks like what they saw with one of the teams in the camp who specialized in combo attacks
It's ok, you'll definitely gonna cheer for Tsukishima later down the line.
UR UPDATES LITERALLY MAKE MY DAYS
I can't wait for you to witness Tsukki's story and growth and you'll definitely LOVE LOVE LOVE him 😊
the amount of times i have repeated 10:55 scene is ridiculous XD It is hilarious
If you look carefully at the kids who are practicing with coach ukaki they just look like little oikawa and izumi from seijo
Damn. I've been skipping intros for a while now. I wasn't aware there was a GODLIKE Guitar cover before the reaction starts. Gotta get back on the previous reactions!
You gotta go back bro, they're all bangers!
The other are actually studying combo attacks from watchingyvideos and stuff and trying it out, making suga add to his arsenal as a setter too.
i just realized that oikawa only calls kageyama by his first name not kunimi or kindaichi even though the three of them knew oikawa at the same time
Nop oikawa knew kageyama before remember when he almost slaps him kageyama was super young
Although he does occasionally call them "Kunimi-chan" and "Kindaichi-chan". I also don't think he calls Yahaba by any special name. The rest of Seijoh, though... Nicknames are just a part of being the great king, Oikawa Hanger, I guess.
I'm pretty sure he is being overly familiar with kageyama to mess with him, something similar to people being super friendly in order to mock you.
14:35 very wise words to chose for Asahi from Carlie
ukai's words made me believe that the best setter is miya
Love your vidss❤😊😊😊😊😊
I literally keep refreshing ur page hoping fr a aot trailer lol😂
Same man.... At the very least I wish they would tell us if they are reacting to it or no
We are likely not going to react to it because we really want to go into that final special, completely blind! And it’ll also help avoid spoilers. Sorry guys! ❤️
Why should they react to a trailer when the actual episode is 2 days away
@CarlieAndAnge Completely understandable... Can't wait fr u guys reaction
You can disagree with me, but I think Hinata is the main reason Karasuno is running instead of walking(in term of growth)
Nope, is kageyama and hinata
@@sopaipa7778 I agree with you, a good setter can make a weak team decent and a good team exceptional
@@sopaipa7778yea, definitely both. Without them, they would stagnated, but they breathed new life
Don't forget my boy Nishinoya, he is no less important than Kageyama and Hinata.

In this chapter he literally ate his pride and asked his greatest enemy and goal for advice.
Are you still with the same idea?
Just curiosity.
(I know they have more chapters on Patreon)
I think it can be argued that Hinata and Kageyama weren't really friends in the first place.
They are rivals first and foremost and always will be
Do you guys have any plans for Jojo's or bleach
It's so weird to see people shiping Hinata and Yachi when they have such massive siblings vibes lol
Speaking of ships, I'm kinda shipping Asahi with Shimizu, really haha
