Yeah, exactly. Kita is used to the repetition, that repetition made him become disciplined. I think this is why a lot of fans love him. And a huge chunk of them, me included, strive to have at least a bit of his discipline.
Kita, from the small glimpses we have of him, is by far my favorite character and prolly gave the most impactful lesson: “I am built upon the small things I do every day, and the end results are no more than a by product of that” 😌
A small trivia: Each Inarizaki members are designed and named after species of foxes: - Arctic fox for Kita (although he's named after the ezo red fox) - Bat-eared fox for Omimi - Ruppell's fox for Aran - Red panda for Akagi - Silver fox for Gin - Tibetan fox for Suna (you can search for images of them, they really look like him 😂) Onto the episode. Kita is a simple guy, he looks perfect but that perfection doesn't come out of nowhere but built through his routines. His quotes are meaningful as well, really got me rethink about them after hearing. There's also a trend that, whenever there's a series of tests coming up, people set their social media icons to Kita to pray for good grades and boost their confidence. It's so popular that instead of calling that period of time "test period", we call it "Kita season".
Also, for the Miya twins, Miya = 宮 which is kinda like a 神社 (shrine) where they worship these gods and foxes. As for Atsumu and Osamu, this is just my own theory, but 集める (atsumeru) in Japanese means to collect, and 収める (Osameru) can be used in like a "score a point" sense (点を収める). Basically, Atsumu collects the balls by setting it and Osamu scores the points.
I was looking forward to Kita's entry. Tbh when I saw his backstory, for a min I forgot which team I was supporting. Haikyu just shows us these relatable characters we can't help but liking. The way Kita was crying and how he got the jersey after so many years of hardwork and disciplined routine always gets me.
Now that you mention it, Kita and Bokuto have the same eye and hair colour. They also have split, animal-like pupils too. I remember there's arts and fanfictions of them styling each others' hair, switched places or personalities based on that.
Kita is really similar to Akashi in some aspects, the difference is that what Akashi does with Bokuto to keep him in check, Kita does with an entire team, he just a natural Leader
2 ปีที่แล้ว +3
Not sure if Kita would tolerate Bokuto, but he could probably handle him well as he is handling well Myians. :-)
Kita is not OCD. He is just the perfectionist type i think. He just confertable doing things in nice routine and train himself well to stay calm in most situation. One way to discribe him is the son that every asian parents want.
While I see where you're coming from, I don't think Kita has OCD, he's just a guy with rituals and he sticks to his routine. I have OCD, of course I can't talk for everyone with it but our responses and compulsions often come from some sort of unreasonable fear, which I don't see in Kita. Still love him lots, he's an interesting character. I appreciate you asking about it in a respectful way, Teddy 😊. Great reaction!
The thing with Kita is that he learned with him grandma that "the gods are always watching", and that he having his routine and being methodical will make up in the future, later on he said that he doesn't really belive in gods, but in the end SOMEONE(even tho wasn't a god) WAS indeed watching he being the way he is, which was the Inarizaki coach. And the thing is that he having his routine and being mature, he knows what he can and can't do, and what he trains and does in the routine he does PERFECTLY in the game, which makes him incredible reliable, even tho hes not as flashy and skilled as some1 like Atsumu, that's what the coach meant when he said that the Miyas cause despair on their enemies, and Kita helps to prolong that, to keep the pressuve and keep enemy from striking back or recovering, which is even more terrible for Karasuno's morale. I love Kita's character, he's just a mature, reliable and honest person, and even tho he LOOKS like a robot, hes just a high schooler, that cried like a baby when FINALY got his first uniform.
I think that the idea that someone is always watching also speaks to the fact that, if that's true there's no reason to feel stage fright since, even if in a "real match" or a "real performance" there's many eyes on you, even during training there were already many eyes on you. So it's basically something like if you didn't get nervous then, why would you get nervous in the real deal? After all "someone is always watching".
Kita's backstory is wholesome for sure. It's the idea that if you show yourself to be hard working and dedicated, the "somebody always watching" will notice you. In this case, it was his team's coach. Kita may not be a godlike player, but he's methodical, disciplined and reliable, making him ideal for the captain. I guess he never got to play in his first and second years due to not having crazy technique, but he eventually got his uniform through sheer commitment.
13:03 OMG the one who served is Masahiro Sekita aka Japan's Tiny Giant genius setter aka my fave irl vb player alongside Nishida. Sorry hahaha I just got so excited seeing him in your vid... It's not just his serves and setting that's impressive too. At only 1.75 m (5 ft 9 in) tall, he can do one-on-one kill blocks against taller foreign athletes, and of course he's a decent receiver/digger too. Fun fact for vb junkies, his team with Yanagida as ace/captain and him as setter won the Spring Tournament back when they were only 2nd years (at that time the Spring Tourney was actually held in spring so 3rd yrs couldn't join, meaning it was also their last participation in the tournament). It was the first time their school won the championship too.
And this is where I fell in LOVE with Kita!! Best boy! He believes making everything he does a habit/ a routine and if everything you do, in this case volleyball, routine than you can perform anywhere, anytime the same way and this gives you confidence.
I think the reason why I love Kita so much as a character is not necessarily because I relate to his personality or find his values admirable (I do for sure but that's not the main reason why I love him). When I was reading the manga at this point I was just utterly amazed at how perfectly the author managed to introduce a character with such limited screentime and still make him seem so fleshed out and realistic. Watching so many people react to this series and witness their different reactions to Kita and how the character captivates them in a variety of ways is a testament to this imo
Ofc Kita is best boi, impossible not to love him. He hasn't OCD, he's just used to being disciplined as he was raised like that by his grandmother. Simple routine, it makes you feel good when you enjoy it Edit: also... Buckle up, these last 5 episodes gonna be a CRAZY rollercoaster!
It’s definitely not OCD. He isn’t compulsive and doesn’t feel compelled to do that stuff every day, he just was raised to be earnest and hardworking, and he saw that consistency made him strong and confident. So he sticks to it. It’s a very logical type of dedication, as opposed to an illogical compulsion (like OCD, there’s pretty much nothing logical about OCD). Think of Lida from My Hero Academia, but toned way down temperament-wise. He’s just trying to do the things he knows work and are the right things to do. However, because of that, he never surpassed his natural abilities-which is why the coach says he isn’t particularly skilled or talented.
“I am built upon the small things I do every day, and the end results are no more than a byproduct of that” that phrase kill me every single time, because yeah, kita's character isn't the most talented or energetic member of the team, but here's one fact: perseverance, that's what get him there, in the court, with a lot of monsters that loves volleyball more than themselves, and the phrase that his grandma says "someone is always watching, gods are everywhere" its just aaaah, so good, bacause AGAIN, yeah, there is someone always watching, and if you build your goal by "small" things like discipline and effort, at some point your gonna have your reward. The point here is: even when Kita decided to do that things just because he want to and not because he was used to or he wants to have merit/recognition, at the end of the day, if you follow the right steps and aim to your goal, someone will find you and maybe (just maybe), they will help you get to the top; to be in the court as captain, after working on it every single day
I'm not sure I explained very well how I feel about this character, but I think that simple phrases changed my perspective in, literally, EVERYTHING, sooooo yeaaaah, I could talk about it for hours hahaha but english is not my first languaje and i'm still missing a lot of words to explain myself:(
Just because Kita was properly introduced this episode, I didn't make my list before. But here I go - Sugawara - Nishinoya - Tendou - Kita - Bokuto May I include one more... - Takeda Sensei (Take-Chan is the best hahah) I'm so sad it's coming to an end. ☹ But I'm also watching other reactions of yours before Season 5 comes 😊
Honestly, I feel like Takeda-sensei and the Ukais don't get enough recognition. Even I forgot to shout them out when I mentioned my favourite characters in Teddy's previous video.
7:00 no kita doesn't have OCD. He is just a person that knows better than anyone else that if he is following the correct steps in doing something and does it everyday as a part of routine, he will not messed up in an important event where you truly need it
Hello! Pls don't spoil in the comments, no spam, no links, no politic, no advertising etc and respect Teddy's will. You can debate among yourselves but without any spoilers.😌 Thank u so much to everyone! 🔥
haven't watched the video yet cuz it's night here, but i will tomorrow! Teddy I just want to say that your reactions are part of my morning routine and when i watch your vids it just sets the mood of my day! Keep up the amazing work!! From the Philippines 🇵🇭 (PS. i hope you'll watch assassination classroom it's a great watch!) (ALSO, I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR U TO WATCH THIS EPISODE FOR SO LONG! BEST BOI KITA IS HERE🥰)
Teddy, I finally can intruduce you to my husband. Yes, that is my husband there. Kita Shin♥️ I love so many characters from haikyuu, I mean how can you resist Oikawa or Ushiwaka? Or Kuro, or Bokuto, Aakashi and many more. But for me, That person is Kita Shin who actually make me think that I wish he is real person :")
I appreciate Kita because he appreciates the process. I'm not as methodical in every aspect of my life like Kita is, but I am with academics (I am, however, far more fearful about failure than I think Kita might be). I've had a moment where "somebody's always watching" as well. When I was in graduate school, I made a habit of studying in the library for 6-8 hours a day. One day a library employee came up to me and said, "I always see you here, and I want you to know that I see how hard you work." At the time, I had been struggling with a lot of things, and it made me content that my work was paying off, even if I didn't see it.
@@teddymecheto There's no janitors in Japanese schools (there maybe exceptions in international or private schools I think, but there're very few) and students have to clean the school, even the toilet. It's just Kita does it so thoroughly, while the others don't want to clean the toilets for obvious reasons.
Hello I like your reactions on the channel, it won't be appropriate, but WHAT ABOUT YOUR LIPS?! While I was watching , at some point , I noticed it and decided to ask you this question
Hahaha no you're good it's alright. I bite my lips a lot when I edit or when I'm super nervous so sometimes you'll see me look like I got physically assaulted 💀 I'm all good thought don't worry!

Yeah, exactly. Kita is used to the repetition, that repetition made him become disciplined. I think this is why a lot of fans love him. And a huge chunk of them, me included, strive to have at least a bit of his discipline.
favourite character
“Repetition is a convincing argument”
Kita, from the small glimpses we have of him, is by far my favorite character and prolly gave the most impactful lesson:
“I am built upon the small things I do every day, and the end results are no more than a by product of that”
😌
7:25 Shout out to the coach for watching Kita's efforts and acknowledging him as the captain.
Someone's always watching.
A small trivia: Each Inarizaki members are designed and named after species of foxes:
- Arctic fox for Kita (although he's named after the ezo red fox)
- Bat-eared fox for Omimi
- Ruppell's fox for Aran
- Red panda for Akagi
- Silver fox for Gin
- Tibetan fox for Suna (you can search for images of them, they really look like him 😂)
Onto the episode. Kita is a simple guy, he looks perfect but that perfection doesn't come out of nowhere but built through his routines. His quotes are meaningful as well, really got me rethink about them after hearing.
There's also a trend that, whenever there's a series of tests coming up, people set their social media icons to Kita to pray for good grades and boost their confidence. It's so popular that instead of calling that period of time "test period", we call it "Kita season".
Wow, the Tibetan fox looks so done, just like Rintaro
@@cremlindor6607 Yeah lol, there're memes about Suna swapping face with a Tibetan fox, and they look impeccable 😂
Also, for the Miya twins, Miya = 宮 which is kinda like a 神社 (shrine) where they worship these gods and foxes.
As for Atsumu and Osamu, this is just my own theory, but 集める (atsumeru) in Japanese means to collect, and 収める (Osameru) can be used in like a "score a point" sense (点を収める). Basically, Atsumu collects the balls by setting it and Osamu scores the points.
I was looking forward to Kita's entry. Tbh when I saw his backstory, for a min I forgot which team I was supporting. Haikyu just shows us these relatable characters we can't help but liking. The way Kita was crying and how he got the jersey after so many years of hardwork and disciplined routine always gets me.
I think Kita would fit perfectly on Fukurodani's team as a wise owl.
Now that you mention it, Kita and Bokuto have the same eye and hair colour. They also have split, animal-like pupils too.
I remember there's arts and fanfictions of them styling each others' hair, switched places or personalities based on that.
Hahahaha that's so true
Kita is really similar to Akashi in some aspects, the difference is that what Akashi does with Bokuto to keep him in check, Kita does with an entire team, he just a natural Leader
Not sure if Kita would tolerate Bokuto, but he could probably handle him well as he is handling well Myians. :-)
@ Bokuto is a really good guy so I think he would be great friends with Kita. Who could also be a nice mentor for Akaaaashi.
the moment when Kita cries always gets me
Kita is not OCD. He is just the perfectionist type i think. He just confertable doing things in nice routine and train himself well to stay calm in most situation. One way to discribe him is the son that every asian parents want.
Yeah, not everything is a damn mental illness lmao
Looks like he's in the spectrum
Kita: *cries*
Everyone watching: "And now I cannot see thru my own tears* HE IS PRECIOUS
While I see where you're coming from, I don't think Kita has OCD, he's just a guy with rituals and he sticks to his routine.
I have OCD, of course I can't talk for everyone with it but our responses and compulsions often come from some sort of unreasonable fear, which I don't see in Kita. Still love him lots, he's an interesting character.

I guess he never got to play in his first and second years due to not having crazy technique, but he eventually got his uniform through sheer commitment.
Remember that Oikawa said once "You don't get good at receiving overnight" so i would imagine that's the reason Kita never got in until his 3rd year
these last few episodes are some of my favourites of the whole series, cant wait to see your reaction to them. great as always
13:03 OMG the one who served is Masahiro Sekita aka Japan's Tiny Giant genius setter aka my fave irl vb player alongside Nishida. Sorry hahaha I just got so excited seeing him in your vid...

No anime you can't make us cry for a character in just one episode.
Kita : Hold my cleaning material. 😂
With Kita, it's definitely a little sad that it took a very long time for someone to see value in him.
Ofc Kita is best boi, impossible not to love him. He hasn't OCD, he's just used to being disciplined as he was raised like that by his grandmother. Simple routine, it makes you feel good when you enjoy it
Edit: also... Buckle up, these last 5 episodes gonna be a CRAZY rollercoaster!
I bet you will definitely cry at the end of this match!!🫣🥲 Although nice reaction as always🧡

i think kita just likes his rituals. and its not about cleaning. its about having an organized day routine
and his granny teach him
Really enjoy watching your reactions 🥰
Kita has the opposite of OCD because his routine or rituals are based on rational thinking and reasoning, and he is self conscious of his behaviour.
Whenever i hear kita speak i feel at peace
“I am built upon the small things I do every day, and the end results are no more than a byproduct of that” that phrase kill me every single time, because yeah, kita's character isn't the most talented or energetic member of the team, but here's one fact: perseverance, that's what get him there, in the court, with a lot of monsters that loves volleyball more than themselves, and the phrase that his grandma says "someone is always watching, gods are everywhere" its just aaaah, so good, bacause AGAIN, yeah, there is someone always watching, and if you build your goal by "small" things like discipline and effort, at some point your gonna have your reward.

Idk it just seemed odd to clean everything especially the boys' bathrooms 😭 I figured ok that's def not regular behaviour

Thanks for this reaction, it helped me to like/respect Kita. He's the opposite to me, so I didn't really pay attention to this character.
Anyone else notices how nobody had hinata in their list, a lovely character with development but just not someone i would say is my favourite
