    Something that's really cool, is that in the manga, we don't see the outcome of thier match. However the 2021 Olympics real world, Japan and Argentina did actually play one another. And Argentina won. No idea if it was intentional(probably not) but you can take it as a cool nod to oikawa finally reaching them.

    "Don't you ever forget my foolish pride" Easily the best quote of Oikawa, with it, he told so much about himself that a lot people easily miss. Someone who is not amazing talent like a lot of people he faced and with him showing what pure hard work can do and make even the most talented players afraid of him is something incredible. Not even choosing the easy way out by joining shiratorizawa was so amazing in my eyes and made me respect him so much.

    One of the things that really interested me was Oikawa's relationship with Hinata. It was something we never have seen much. Oikawa once saw Hinata as a great decoy, and someone he needed to be careful of, but he never was really tied to his past. Now, they would form a friendship. And because of playing with Hinata, Oikawa was able to find fun in playing volleyball, that he began telling of "going back to being a beginner again" something Hinata experienced during the ball boy arc.

    U shall remember that oikawa was the first character that introduced in haikyuu who impressed not only Hinata but karasuno as whole team, and I believe he is the reason that karasuno developed so much in their beginning. That flashy serve, those unpredicted sets are the symbol of oikawa. Even kageyama said that the sets and serve he knows he learned from oikawa by watching his play. He wasn’t the prodigy but still he became a man who can stand against them. It was a great to see how he developed as character.

    Oikawa gradually became a monster on par with other monsters. Because in order to fight a monster you need to become a monster. And that's what Oikawa became, he had to learn, grow and eventually evolve into the person he becomes. And in the end monsters aren't born, they're created.

    I know we didn't get the actual winner for that olympic match, either way, oikawa has reached a point in his life that losing does not mean he is weak and defeated. Also, oikawa and hinata hugging on national tv kind of says "finally, we made it!" both of them are standing on the stage they've been wanting since day 1. I kind of think too that oikawa is a different breed of monster himself esp in the timeskip, so proud of how he has become! tbh i just love to headcanon argentina won that considering last year, they got bronze 🎉 (it also makes sense that he beats them tho)

    I don't know if anyone else mentioned this but for me, the entire story of Oikawa's growth as a person and as a volleyball player is made even more special when you know that Oikawa was officially adopted by the UPCN San Juan. Their players and even the coaches made congratulatory videos on his acceptance to the team and I was extremely proud of Oikawa, the Haikyuu community and Furudate-sensei that made it even possible. I have never seen this level of love for a fictional character who has inspired me and others before and it makes me teary-eyed just thinking of it. While Haikyuu may have ended, it's impact in the world will continue to live on in our hearts and memories.

    It’s amazing how Haikyuu’s themes are so well drawn out and relatable to each other. I’ve been watching this and thinking about Bokuto’s childhood coach when he said “Think about what’s fun, not what’s easy”, and Kita’s quote “Being able to take hurdles head on is just as much of a talent”, and it just goes to show how this story does an exceptional job at reminding us of the core elements its trying to convey over and over and over again through many beautiful and diverse characters.

    Someone in twt pointed out that in the new one shot when Kuroo goes for Oikawa he doesn't need to lure him with anything (like to have revenge againts Kageyama and Ushijima) and when he goes for Ushiwaka he says that he can play against 'Hinata (who beat him in the Adlers vs Jackls) and Oikawa', so you can guess that Argentina won, moreso If you take the real Olympics. Oikawa was always my favorite character (even when everyone hated him) and I always wanted him to succed but GOD If it did surpass my expectation. Oikawa leaving everything behind and starting from zero in another country, struggling alone and by his own decision yet coming out victorious. Oikawa wanted to eat the world and he did, him being now the wall that Japan has to climb to reach victory is so ironic; he didn't wanted to be a monster, he wanted to be more. And as Oikawa says, those monsters who he used to be afraid of are now just stepping stones on his way to glory.

    Oikawa is always an interesting character. For his personality to identity. Born not a monster/genius in volleyball he still manage to reach towards his dream and passion for volleyball. On the side note, I sometimes think about the similarity of Oikawa and Tanaka which people might think weird but they actually have few things in common. Both are not monster/genius, manage to overcome their hurdles and reach their goals. However, the difference between them is their mindset. Young Oikawa mindset believe he can't overcome those hurdles he will be facing while Tanaka always try to surpass it as long as he know his chances are not 0. It makes me think, no matter what mindset people have. If what their dreams they strive to achieve is stronger than the mind block they give for themselves. These people will always succeed in the future

Oikawa's perception about people who had some special talent, and people who were born geniuses, resonates a lot with what I believed in and had been holding on to for a really long time. As I started to see the changes, growth, and self-acceptance within him throughout the manga, I couldnt help but feel so so proud of how far my boy has come. I love how human Oikawa's character is and it, sort of, pushes me to breach the boundaries of my limitations and become a better version of myself

But seen Oikawa from this angle my mind changed because I'm in the same spot as him, facing monster who beat every thing so easily while I'm here just slowing down... thx 💚

    Always a pleasure to watch your videos, Harsh Reviews! Unlike the majority of the fandom, it seems, I never warmed up to Oikawa (despite my friends teasing me that I was an Oikawa to the core, down to my weak right knee lmao) until I finally saw him in his more mature stage post-timeskip. Here’s to hoping my “Oikawa-ness” sticks around and I have my Argentina era Oikawa arc soon bc rn I’m still stuck in my Aoba Johsai Oikawa arc it seems.

    This is the exact reason I love Oikawa so much more than Kageyama. He's not a genius, but he's a volleyball idiot himself and to go against monsters, sometimes you have to be a monster too. His route might have been longer, but it makes his appearance in the last chapter EFFIN SWEEEEEEET and WORTHWHILE. His journey is my favorite out of all of them. >_ p.s. legit shrieked out in silence coz it's night when i saw this.

    Funny because your comment is why I love Kageyama so much more than Oikawa… He’s always treated as a genius, but no one wants to acknowledge that all his talent is in fact hard work. He’s always marginalized by people like Oikawa because he’s some prodigy, but no one thinks one second that he’s a human being and that he struggles too. He’s an misunderstood sweetheart, and that’s what made him so unstable psychologically. People never try to think that Kageyama doesn’t consider himself a genius, he only trains hard everyday like he does since he’s born. « Geniuses » have generally no one to help them overcome their « singularity », they’re always alone because people treat them like some monsters. That’s why I like Kageyama more. Because no one seems to realize that he has made so much efforts to get where he is. Like « it’s normal for him he’s born like that ». No. It’s wrong and it’s so disrespectful honestly, to say that geniuses doesn’t sweat and cry.

    This video made me ugly crying (ಥ﹏ಥ) TYSM for the effort you put into making it! This is such a colossal work - from the narration to each frame, it's incredible and it touched very vulnerable corners of my soul, causing only the most positive emotions! Perhaps this is also because since the release of the manga and anime, so much time has already passed that I became a sentimental granny xD I'm very glad that after a while Tooru found the response and love that he deserves. I’m even more happy for his journey and I’m glad that on a not very easy day for me I found this video, cried and now I’m ready to rise like a phoenix! Really like his quote (possible inaccuracies in the wording) that, "Your talent may blossom even today, or tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, next year, or even on your 30th birthday. In regards to physique, I can't say much. But if you yourself think that you don't have talent, then you'll probably never have it."". I hope you and everyone who reads this have a great day!!! Never give up!

    Even tho he’s one of the antagonists of the series and has less screen time then the 2 mc’s, his story throughout the manga is almost more mc like then both Hinata and Kageyama and that’s why he is my favorite character in the entire series. I honestly wish we could get the brazil arc animated but that wouldn’t be for like another 2 seasons at the minimum.

    I did not dislike nor like Oikawa before. But after reading the Brazil arc, he became my instant favorite. I am just very proud of him, overcoming his insecurities. Well, maybe not all, but he became more confident and overcome his self-doubt... DAMN that made me cry. Oikawa, for me, is the most realistically written character. He is so relatable, he acts like a real person really. I just love he is written. It was a joy seeing his growth. Hinata and him are my favorite characters. I just love their relationship. Thank you very much, Furudate-sensei. I can talk about Oikawa all day lol. My friend told me whenever I talk about this character, she said my eyes were shining.
