When Ukai talks about "the team that connects wins", he means "the team that keeps the ball in play wins". "Connect" is used to mean "keep the string of passes and hits connected/unbroken." Ultimately the thing that matters at the end of the day is keeping the ball in play. It's interesting that Ukai says this here, because Nekoma showcases this same philosophy towards volleyball when taken to the extreme.

Is it the usage of the word "connect" in the translation that is a little off the point? Because as far as I understand it, the word "connect" in the whole manga (and anime) always means "keep the ball in play" and never "be a cohesive team", or any other connotation. It's always about solid receive/passing, and not about teamwork. Although, of course teamwork is also a major theme in the series ^^/

It happens often in sports manga (probably in real life school clubs too ^^). They make use of holidays (like the golden week) to practice from morning until evening.

The first one was in April (the start of the school year) and was definitely a kind of mixer camp, where the senpai in the circle got to know us new people. The one in the summer was more serious, and while there was still playing and having fun (like a kimodameshi (test of courage)), that camp was also where we planned activities for the rest of the year.

And that is my favorite OST of Haikyuu! (Besides the one that's literally called Haikyuu and it'd marvelous too) It's so full of emotions and promised fated encounters, the chemical reaction that Takeda-sensei talked about when the team started to build up. Compositors think of everything 💜

It's maybe cool to notice that when Hinata met Kenma the first time, Hinata behaved like a typical "village" kid and Kenma like a "city" kid. Kenma grew up in big city Tokyo, so you don't try to engage with strangers so much, especially those introverted in nature - which he is. That's why he was looking at his phone so much, making minimal eye contact when he talks. Hinata, growing up in small remote places where everyone knew each other, feels comfortable enough to talk to anyone. You see that especially when Kenma doesn't give too much response about why he's there (usually an incentive for people to get bored and see themselves out), Hinata jumps down next to him and asks if what he's playing is fun, engaging more. In the end I think Kenma likes this special openness that Hinata has. Of course, definitely not saying that all kids growing up in such and such places are always like that. Just noticing the trend in these two. I feel it's much harder to bump into a Hinata-type in a metropolis than a Kenma-type.

Coach Donny: “I love how the author gives the individuals a chance to evolve as people.” Me: Well Coach, you’re in for a hell of a treat because the best thing about Haikyu, is the author makes you fall in love with every team and every individual. The worst thing about Haikyu, is the author makes you call in love with every team and every individual. 😭 I also want to note that the author also writes horror stores and is a huge fan of horror, hence why that one scene was creepy.

That was a good message you gave me this morning. "Sometimes we don't change until it hurts." I like that a lot.

One of my favorite parts of this episode and entire first season is Ukai to Suga moment. Ukai few scenes before that told Takeda how when he was in his 3rd year he was benched for a younger more talented player, and only thing he mentions about it that "he was angry and frustrated" that he was not playing Now contrast that with Suga Sugawara is in his 3rd year and was just benched for a younger more talented player, instead sulking about it he goes to the Coach and says "put the one of us that will get the team the win" and puts his frustration into getting better himself and helping the team in any way he can. On and off the court. Ukai wanted to play no matter what, Suga wants the team to win even if it means he wont be playing. And I think the "I underestimated him" is the moment when Ukai realized all of this and he was not talking about Suga's abilities, but his mentality.

You‘ll become much smoother in your presentation by the time you get to this point in season 2 at this rate.

Kamina is the best hype man ever.

7:26 Kiyoko's(the manager's) full name is *Kiyoko Shimizu* (Kiyoko as first name and Shimizu being her maiden surname) Since Tanaka and Noya are...um...very dedicated to Kiyoko they call her by her first name, she never tried to correct them so I think she doesn't mind. All the other guys I think are not as comfortable as Noya and Tanaka to call a girl by their first name so they call her by her last name Shimizu Same with Asahi and Daichi, Asahi's full name is Asahi Azumane, Kageyama and Tsukki (maybe Yamaguchi too) calls him Azumane out of respect. Hinata, I think he's just going with how Asahi is normally called by the other members. Daichi's full name is Daichi Sawamura, you might hear his last name often by strangers or side characters. For the team he's usually called Captain(by the first years) and simply Daichi(by second and third years, except for Kiyoko, I think she calls everyone by their last name, as a girl, she keeps her distance with the guys)

Even if coach sounds a bit awkward I still enjoy listening and watching because he is not pretentious. You can tell his stories, laughs and excitement are genuine.

The Karasuno team was still in Miyagi prefecture (where they always are), they just stayed together for training camp close to the gym, I think. Nekoma, the team from Tokyo, traveled to Miyagi for the practice match. That's why Kenma said he's from out of town!

Minor manga spoilers! * * * * * * * * I love how Coach says "defense kills", immediately reminds me of Yaku who can "kill a spiker" :D

I think Tanaka and Nishinoya were so excited that they have a training camp with Kyoko, who is their manager, and they thought that she is also staying in the inn. Sugawara then informed them, that she isn't staying there. (Shimizu is Kyoko's last name) and yeah that's why they were lying on the floor because they were so disappointed. But the sight of the beautiful Kyoko gave them the strenght to stand up again. 😂😂 I hope you can understand my explanation.

Wow learned something new again from your videos, I did not know that jogging can somewhat deteriorate your nervous system and reflex ability, would you mind elaborating more on what that means? Not an athlete, but just a biology nerd that's curious! Oh and bonus trivia- the author (Furudate sensei) actually worked on a horror series before Haikyuu, AND he was also a volleyball player (middle blocker) in highschool!

26:01 and now you understood why Haikyuu is an amazing anime! If people watching this show and thinks that is a Vollyball show first that has great character etc etc... then youa re missing the all point! Haikyuu isnt a Vollybell anime it is a chaaractor study anime! it is about how different people behave as part of a team and how people learn how to grow and to improve themselves! Remember what it was said a few episodes ago Volleyball is a sport that you can only touch the ball ONCE, an this is why teamwork is the most important thing!'. If this show was only about bollyball and doing cool moves and stuff it would have been focusing only on Hinata! which the show pretending to do in the first few episode, however, as you will see Hinata isnt even the main episode in most of the episodes and in some he isnt even shown once!

It is a volleyball anime, volleyball doesn't only include cool plays or so you state, the behind the scenes, the struggles, the trainings and the individual growths are all a very real part of volleyball, having played for 7 years now, I have learnt so much in terms of character, learning to work with others and most importantly stress management. Therefore, it is a volleyball anime!

Something interesting about the original manga is that Hinata was originally going to be more shy (Asahi-like) and not even playing Volleyball until Highschool

I read the one shot: Kageyama watched Hinata jump up to the first floor to avoid being late to class. When I read it I was like zbygndhtjjhtyig

Yeah Kenma from Nekoma finally showed up. He's a genius and he's my favorite character.

It's amazing how haikyuu doesn't focus on the story of a single team, but of others as well, and you will still see how many amazing teams like Nekoma will appear! The characters are also very charismatic, impossible not to like someone (of course, there will always be a few exceptions, but later you learn to like him too lol) - this is the magic of haikyuu I love how the coach reacts to the episodes, his comments are very interesting and although I don't play volleyball yet, these are things that I will acquire forever

“Why are they talking about bread?”😭💀💀💀💀

Since all their names are pretty complicated, I see that you have a difficult time to remember who is who. They also call each other sometimes by their name, sometimes by their last name. Usually Japanese people would call each other by last name out of respect and when they are not all that close. When they are close enough, they would call each other by first name. Here is a review of all the characters. (Last name, first name): (Last name First name) 1st years: Kageyama Tobio: number 9 --> setter Hinata Shoyo: number 10 --> middle blocker Tsukishima Kei (or Tsukki): number 11 --> middle blocker Yamaguchi Tadashi: number 12 --> pinch server 2nd years: Nishinoya Yuu (or Noya): number 4 --> Libero Tanaka Ryuunosuke (or Ryuu): number 5 --> Wing Spiker Ennoshita Chikara: number 6 --> not much scene for him right now as he is not a regular Kinoshita Hisashi: number 7 --> not much scene for him right now as he is not a regular Narita Kazuhito: number 8 --> not much scene for him right now as he is not a regular 3rd years: Sawamura Daichi: number 1 --> captain Sugawara Kooshi (or Suga): number 2 --> setter Azumane Asahi: number 3 --> Ace, Wing spiker Coach: Takeda Ittetsu (or Take-chan) --> the teacher/faculty advisor Ukai Keishin --> The actual coach. I remember you asking yourself why he has the same name as his granpa. That's because Ukai is their last name. Manager: Shimizu Kiyoko (the hot girl whom Tanaka and Nishinoya are fanboys of) As you probably already know, usually in East Asia, we order our names as in Last name First name, right? So we call ourselves Son Goku and not Goku Son. Or Uzumaki Naruto, not Naruto Uzumaki. I know it's already confusing; it's gonna be even more confusing in the future as more characters will be introduced, and they all call each other by last name or first name. Also, to specify, almost every school's name has meaning in it. Like you already know, "Karasu" from "Karasuno" means Crow. "Neko" from "Nekoma" means cat. "Shiratori" from "Shiratorizawa" means White bird, symbolized by the white eagle, and so on.

8:30 fun fact: Before drawing Haikyuu, Furudate (author's manga) had a high-school horror manga which was a suggestion from his editor in order to improve his drawing skills. I believe this scene is a little nod to his previous work (: Also, you'll see that the author uses some techniques from horror in order to illustrate better the expression or thoughts of the characters (such as some takes where you only see the face of the person). Of course that on the anime that's the director and animators work, but since the original manga serves as a "storyboard" for the anime is really cool to see how they adapted this aspect of the original work.

You stated that coach ukai was underestimating his setting ability. I actually thought he meant he underestimated his mature ness

@laiqalasse

3 жыл бұрын

yes, completely. most likely, trainer ukai thought that suga would perceive the kageyama as the main setter negatively (having such experience personally and with the fact, that it's the last year for suga, one last year to play), but suga personally stated that if he is not good enough, then ukai does not need to worry about what his reaction will be, he understands and will continue training to take a place in the first team, deserving it

I hope you are enjoying watching this anime

I'm gonna be honest, I always get a little teary when watching that Suga Ukai scene. Especially when they show Daichi and Asahi around the corner. But I have a major bias towards Suga cause he's my favorite character so I guess that makes sense 🤣

@ayasera_9501

3 жыл бұрын

even with no biasing that scene is kinda soul breaking for me.. its hard/embarrassing to admit/be straight forward with honest thoughts and emotions, it really speaks a lot of suga's personality. especially that he went directly to ukai it's not like he told this to daichi or asahi who are his bestfriends.

Hey coach, 2 things: 1. When coach Ukai said "I underestimated you" to sugawara I think he was refering to underestimating him in the sense that he he didn't think Sugawar would be able to handle being benched and pitied him but Sugawara ended up being able to take it and even advised the couch to bench him if he needed to. 2. In the last episode, I personally think coach Ukai said "how cruel" because he thought it was cruel to others players that hinata and kageyama synergized and worked together so easily without much prior background compared to players like Sugawara who synergizes well with players because of experience. Ps. Ur videos are awesome 😀

the boys being boys segment are so cute. In general I'd consider this a cute show. They're so sincere and open about issues that are very relatable, and they help each other grow forwards. But having that silly downtime also helps making you care for them.

Kozuma Kenma, the setter of Nekoma, is practically the brain of the team! He’s one of the team members who helps and organizes the team to get back into shape when their match is not going that well. You’re definitely gonna know Nekoma better in S2. I really enjoyed your reaction coach! Lovelots from the Philippines!!!

To the people commenting on the way you speak: I'm not a native English speaker, and you talking so slowly and clearly helps me immensely understand what you're saying, therefore helping me follow even the explainations! So keep it that way, you're doing great :)

Kenma: *exists* Coach: Is it a guy or a girl? hahahahah

29:25 they're Nekoma players betting on whether Karasuno has a female manager or not, loser buys bread for the winner

Love that he straight called out Yamamoto and Kuroo like "If y'all gonna have the stupid hair you better spike that ball to make up for it."

Jogging scene is rly one typical thing that can be seen in literally every sport anime though.

One of my favorite details in this series is how Nekoma and Karasuno have such different playing styles, but they also seem to mirror each other's personalities. You'll see more of this in the next episode but I wanted to put it on your radar. Another thing I wanted to mention is that with third years, they feel the most pressure for the upcoming tournament because since Japanese schools are year-round, they usually only play the summer interhigh since the spring tournament falls so close to when they'd be studying for college entrance exams. I think the nationals are set during the final few weeks of the school year. Also, your reactions are super fun and educational. I've never felt like they were stiff at all so just keep up the good work. We appreciate you!

All the nekoma players are about to appear and Donny still doesn´t know who Shimizu is. Pray for the future boys

Coach Ukai was amazed at Sugawara's mental strength. Suga's point of view is that he doesn't mind losing out the position of official setter to Kageyama if it means that Karasuno can keep on winning. Once Karasuno loses in a tournament, it's game over for them. Hence Suga wants Coach Ukai to make the choice that would keep Karasuno on the winning path and let them keep playing more official matches against other teams. He's content to be a substitute setter if it means keeping alive the team's dream of making it to nationals once again. It's such a beautiful yet heartbreaking moment that made Suga one of my all time favorite characters. There's no other character in the series like him.

Remember the end of the game vs Aoba josai (the one with the k pop setter). At the end Hinata aimed his spike against the k pop setter. This won’t be important for a while but remember that he aimed the ball.

I really appreciated you explaining the digging techniques. I always thought it was weird that they wouldn't try to received the ball with their arms together ahead of time, but I see why now! Also, good eye with catching Kenma's volleyball shoes! This show really goes into a an amazing amount of detail :)

24:26 Actually, Nishinoya's dialogue will always sound arrogant but he's constantly noted by many characters to be very humble. It will feel like arrogance, but he's just very straightforward and his statements are, more often than not, very accurate because he never minces his words.

I have not seen anyone talk about this but when coach Ukai says 'connect' he actually means it literally The team that connects the ball to the opponent's court wins

3:05 the number one challenge of watching haikyuu is that you can't choose a favourite character.... you just end up loving them all T_T

Who's slipping the Guren Lagann reference in the previous video comment? 😂😂 Sneaky dude

I think this episode has a post-credit scene! Maybe you can check it out in the next video?

"Sometimes we don't change until it hurts" dam coach,your spitting facts

I love how Haikyuu demonstrates that there are all kinds of players who play for different reasons and motivations. Kenma plays for his friends, not because he loves volleyball. To some who are truly passionate about the game, it might not seem like a good enough motivation, but it's all the motivation he needs to show up and play. I can respect that. :)

This is perfect timing for an upload, my conference starts 5 minutes after I’d be finished with the vid :D

I really love how he can make a teaching moment out of anything. He has a true teaching spirit.

I'm so happy you finally met Kenma, he's my favorite character. Kenma get anxious with people, that is why he prefers his hair the way it is. It allows his feild of vision to be limited. He wasn't trying to be rude to Hinata at all.

Finally, the introduction of Nekoma! Can't wait to see what you think of this team's interaction with Karasuno.

Finally!🎉 I'm always looking forward to this. I always stop whatever I'm doing everytime your notification comes up, hehe~ Love your videos coach💖 Coach, Kiyoko Shimizu is the beautiful girl, their manager. Nishinoya and Tanaka likes Shimizu so they were down when they heard Shimizu's not sleeping at training camp, and was immediately refreshed when they saw Shimizu ^^ "Competition in the team is important..." hmmm, I wonder where I heard that? hehe~ You're always amazing with your predictions coach👍 Also, there is still a little left after the closing song. "The King"... Wait till Season 4💖

I’m so excited for you to react to the Nekoma vs Karasuno practice match!! Battle of the garbage dump here we gooo! 🙌🏼🏐

I see others have said the same but I like the way you speak on these videos, it's both calming and approachable!!! You sound like someone who thinks before they speak and your emotions come through very naturally. These videos are really giving me something to look for each week, excited to go on this journey with you! I started the series a couple months ago and am up to date. There's some really good matches later on and I'm excited to see you deep dive into the psychology and strategy of it!

I absolutely agree. One of the reasons that I love this series so much is because the author focuses on different types of characters. You have those who play with the idea of pursuing the sport in the future, those who play for fun, and those who got dragged along by friends. I feel like it's easy to fall into having a mass amount of overly passionate characters and a sport-centred story, but Haikyuu really brings in everyone.

YES i always jump on these reactions instantly, it's not just me that can't get enough of them!!

I'm used to manga and anime (that being said, the only reference I have on Japanese culture are manga and anime LOL), so I don't know... to me the way Japanese call each other is pretty easy to track and remember. They use family names by default (such as between Shoyo and Tobio), and switch to first names if they are close (Suga to Asahi and Daichi), some even use nicknames (Yamaguchi to Tsukishima (Tsukki), Daichi to Sugawara (Suga), Tanaka to Takeda-sensei (Take-chan)). Exception: very cool (or childish?) people like Noya who calls everyone by their first names XD. So if strangers have only met, I'd quickly relate the names they call each other with as family names. If these strangers' friends call them by a different name, then that'd be the first name. For example, Hinata calls Ennoshita by his family name, and Noya calls him Chikara, so his full name must be Ennoshita Chikara (and it's always family name first, unless if the subtitle uses western style). Asahi's classmates call him Azumane, and Suga who is good friends with him calls him Asahi. So he must be Azumane Asahi. By working things out like this, I get to know the characters' full names, and because they are mentioned at separate instances, they're easier to remember. I hope I make some sense ^^'a

looking forward to Coach calling Kuroo "Kpop hair number 2" 😭😂✨👌

Thanks for the inspiration coach you always remind me to improve my habits every week. I think you're such a great speaker tbh. Your points are always clear and easy to understand, I'm sure the rest will come later ^^. It's so hard to react and watch an anime and read subtitles at the same time. If you miss anything it's no big deal at all. Thank you for your honest reaction and advice. Some names, we meet our second years! They call themselves the "disgraced" group because they "ran away" from old coach Ukai. So in addition to Suga who is a 3rd year the 1st years also replaced a bunch of second year seniors. They don't hold any grudge at all which is just very cool. Chikara Ennoshita (Ennoshita-sempai): Black hair wing spiker. Looks like gentle Daichi. Kazuhito Narita (Narita-sempai): Baldy middle blocker. Looks like gentle Tanaka. Hisashi Kinoshita (Kinoshita-sempai)): Spikey light brown hair wing spiker.

The Shimizu they were refering to with tanaka and nishinoya "dying" is kiyoko Shimizu...their lady manager...who both tanaka and nishinoya have a crush on

oh my I didn't expect this!! this made me very happy :D today was a stressful day for me

I think it wasnt suga's setting ability that coach ukai underestimated when he said he have been underestimated suga. He underestimated suga's willingness to sacrifice himself for whats best for his team. Even though this is his last year of being able to play volleyball in high school, he is willing to put his team before him and at the same time still work hard to be ready to play whenever he have the chance. Suga's willing to do whats best for the team proves that he has much stronger mindset that ukai gv him credit for. Sorry for my bad english , english is not my native language

Coach, thank you for spoiling us with all these 30+ minute videos 😭💞 I feel like I'm experiencing the series all over again!

Love the content, keep it up coach.

Sorry for commenting so much, let me just say this in advance to save you the trouble, this anime is very "good" there is no evil or mean character, sure some are a bit arrogant or say things to rile the other teaam up on purpose, but unlike other sport animes, where there are really just axxholes, every team in this anime is good and they always have respectful matches, great rivarly and friendships. Okay now that is finally all from me :D

coach, i actually started watching you over other volleyball coaches in youtube because you are so articulate and you actually pronounce vowels making all your words understandable. in short you dont slur and i really like that

Kenma just has anxiety and isn't good with talking to strangers. he'll come around and warm up to Hinata more and more

Vague spoilers possibly. . . . . . . . . . . . . "Have a team of all stars" "Can be beaten by less skilled players" Simple Shiratorizawa addition 👀

well, little giant sure has created a monster who become almost all rounder player later.

I love how you have been following sugawara's passion for the team despite being moved to the bench due to kageyama. He gets some mind blowing moments later on, I hope to see more commentary about him later from you. edit: the three guys who left and then came back (ennoshita, kinoshita, narita) are second years, who left in the first year. They said in the episode that they are the "pathetic second years" so I guess you interpreted that as they were "pathetic" in their second year, when they quit during their first year and have returned now that they are in the second year.
