BRING IT!!!

Bighead

Something to note here- Kageyama, Suga and Coach Ukai, who didn't really understand/believe in Hinata when he said he wanted to fight mid air or the fact that he could sometimes see the game/blocks in slow motion, are all setters. I can't really say more without spoiling some points explored in the next episode, so this will make for an interesting conversation next week! And just like you mentioned in the last episode, now it's time to see how our team navigates balancing evolution and their individual selfishness to improve, without affecting their teamwork. This training arc has so much in store for you except *spoilers* going to the beach. I'm curious to know at this point, whose argument you agree with more. Kageyama thinks their weirdo quick doesn't need any changes or enhancements(i.e it's at it's best form) and that it's better to strengthen their serves, receives and blocking while Hinata wants to work on himself as a spiker so he can enhance the weirdo quick by controlling the spikes mid air, as their weirdo quick is the best scoring technique for the team by far. In a way, one is talking more about stability while the other, evolution. What do you think the team needs at this point?

Really enjoyed your discussion. I think the one element that makes all of these decisions about how to grow best more complicated and difficult is time. They have an artificially imposed deadline: the qualifiers start when they start. So, it's all well and good to say in the abstract that we can get temporarily worse to get much better long-term, the unknown is how long that would take, and whether you'd reduce your chances when it counts or not. Also, Bighead's point about setter perspective is important, I think.

I mean, I think Goodwin's said a few times now that it needs to be both in some form, but how to balance that against the upcoming timing of the tournaments is the rub, no?

Skyler Anderson

I actually always cry for some reason near the end when Hinata and Kageyama fight and he tells Yachi that he was a partner. I have no clue why it invokes so many emotions out of me. Probably just repressed emotions from past strong friendships long gone or something. Anyways, Karasuno has hit the wall and it's time to see what they do when faced with the need to evolve.

Oh yeah I know he's mentioned a balance of both stability and evolution. But I meant more in terms of what you mentioned in your comment about time. As in if it's better to prioritize strengthening other plays such as serves, receives and blocks which are probably the team's weaknesses as opposed to spending the limited time available on re-imagining an already strong move like the weirdo quick. I know they can both be worked on simultaneously, but I just wanted to know what you guys would best bet on to actually help the team more, without any further knowledge/biases of what happens in the future episodes. I'm being very vague here so as not to spoil anything, but I'm interested to know people's answer since it ties into a topic of discussion I saw on reddit that I thought would be interesting to explore here after Goodwin's watched this arc.

Oh no, absolutely!! This episode really solidifies how much Hinata trusts and looks up to Kageyama as a friend and comrade. I think it's widely overlooked how Hinata must have felt, not being understood by Suga, Coah Ukai and especially Kageyama. And what he says to Yachi about how he thought he and Kageyama always understood each other, but now maybe its not true, is painful.

It never fails to amaze me how well this episode builds tension. Starting with the Asahi-Hinata collision, adding small things like Hinata and Kageyama not sitting next to each other on the bus and finally reaching a peak with the fight.

I want Hinata to get his shot. But it's kind of on him to make it happen in a way that's convincing and non-destructive. It's a tall order

The 2nd time watching this was more heartbreaking for me. Especially the part where Hinata is riding off while crying

Athena

We're starting to get into the meat of this season! Like Swanlady said, the tension is so palpable this episode. I agree with Skyler that Hinata and Kageyama's fight makes me tear up. Hinata never had a team before Karasuno. His middle school team was thrown together quickly and they never actually played together (i.e., practices, official matches, etc.) He practiced with other teams but there wasn't really a spot for him. Becoming partners with Kageyama was the best thing to happen to Hinata in terms of synergy and trust and he is just heartbroken that his ride or die isn't on the same page as him.

Aura Y

The Hinata-Kageyama fight might be one of my favorite, but most heart-breaking moments throughout the show. It's an argument people who thought they understood each other, but this moment where their frustrations of their shortcomings boil over because they can't see eye to eye. Definitely gets me emotional each time I watch it, but I always look forward to it regardless.
