guy: Futamata!
kagee: Again?! I'll stop them again!
This time, not with my face.
yama: Back att*ck!
suga: A break...
teru: I totally thought you were going to hit that.
teru: You scared the crap out of me!
sawa: His own team didn't know he was going to do that.
tana: But he was able to hit it so calmly.
azu: They're vicious... How creepy.
take: Johzenji seems to be doing well after their time out.
kei: Yeah... They're starting to actually look at their opponents as they're playing.
kei: That's not good.
sign: Haikyu!!
sign: Episode : "Next"
mika: I'm not saying you need to play seriously.
mika: You guys may seem stupid, but you're not, are you?
all: Huh?
misa: Playing doesn't equal not thinking.
both: Left! Left!
guy: Nice!
It's up! Get the last one!
kei: When you're not sure they're actually going to hit,
kei: don't go up to block, and take a step back.
booth: Right on point!
kei: I have no complaints if you actually stop them.
ana: When you know how to move
ana: and have the skill to actually do it, that's when you can actually play freely.
ana: I guess the more we improve, the more we'll see people like that.
sawa: Tsukishima, nice serve!
person: Here he comes! # !
teru: Hey, listen up a sec.
taki: Johzenji hasn't been able to stop Hinata's quick yet,
taki: so they'd better get this point.
tana: Nice receive.
person: Their # jumped up! That quick is coming!
person: Er, huh?
Johzenji's blockers aren't marking # ?
teru: If we can't block it, it's better to go for the receive.
person: Whoa! They did it!
They managed to counter by not marking # !
person: It went over!
misa: Playing doesn't equal not thinking.
teru: Having the simulation in your head and reality join together...
teru: ...is awesome!
scoreboard ,sign: Karasuno Johzenji
tak: A two-point difference, huh...
taki: This happened to them with Aoba Johsai, too.
yachi: Eh?
taki: Hinata's spike is still pretty light.
hina: I don't want to get blocked,
but being ignored by the blockers is even more frustrating. Why?!
hina: Kageyama!
hina: Could you give me another one next time?
teru: One more, nice serve!
nishi: Got it!
hina: I can see it.
teru: Seriously?
yachi: Nice k*ll!
taki: I guess this means things have changed since the Seijoh match.
scoreboard ,sign: Karasuno Johzenji
tana: Hinata! Give 'em one more!
hina: A receive from that close up?
guy: If we can touch it...
guy: ...we can control it!
all: All right!
sawa: So their play is to touch the ball
before we can hit it into a space they can't reach.
hina: I'll win the next one!
sawa: Hinata, isn't there a move you haven't done yet today?
sawa: Your new special move.
scoreboard ,sign: Karasuno Johzenji
sawa: Nice receive!
tana: Go, Hinata!
teru: Bring it!
people: All right!
scoreboard ,sign: Karasuno Johzenji
yachi: Match point!
teru: All right, you guys...
teru: Let's play for real.
SandF,guy: Simplicity and Fortitude Johzenji Parents' Association
guy: Got it!
take: Another synchronized att*ck?!
misa: Those guys aren't thinking about when they mess up,
even for a second.
misa: Just the pleasure they feel when they succeed.
kei: Be careful! That one isn't like before!
kara: All right!
yachi: We did it!
taki: Now they've made it into the quarterfinals.
ana: I expected that ending....
scoreboard ,sign: Karasuno Johzenji
teru: Are we really done? Damn it...
teru: And I was just getting hyped up!
sawa: They still look like they want to play.
azu: They're terrifying...
ana: Thanks.
misa: Eh?
ana: It appears that you really do understand those guys better than I do.
ana: Because of that, they didn't completely break down.
ana: I guess I should expect that from a third-year.
misa: No...
all: Thank you very much!
futa: So I wasn't imagining it.
futa: Their quick is evolving.
futa: All right. I'm gonna go on ahead.
Don't stay too long.
jo,sign: Johzenji High School
ana: Well, I guess, if anything...
ana: I don't mind you guys getting hyped up,
ana: just don't lose control.
ana: There's no one to whip your butts into shape anymore.
ana: All right, dismissed.
ana: Don't skip your stretches.
misa: Ah, um...
imsa: Don't you guys give Runa-chan a hard time.
misa: She's still a first-year, so I'll be watching you guys.
misa: Also... About your style where you always go all-out with playing around...
misa: I actually like that a lot.
misa: Let's go. The next team is here.
teru: Th-Thank you very much!
yachi: You did it!
tana: Ye-ah!
nishi: Ye-ah!
yachi: E-Eekyay?!
enn: You both doing a jumping high-five at her is a bit much.
both: R-Right...
three: Yay! Yay! Yay!
aone: I'm going to stop you tomorrow.
hina: And I'm going to get through!
kage: Shut up!
yama: I wonder if he was waiting just to tell Hinata that...
hina: The game on court B's done?
kage: That would mean whoever won that game is our next opponent.
scoreboard,sign: Wakunan Sensho
person: You can do it, Takeru!
people: You can do it, Takeru! Nice k*ll, Takeru!
takeru,sign: Takeru
take: Yeah!
hina: His family's here to cheer him on?!
kage: That's the team Ukai-san said
we need to look out for before the Inter-High prelims, too...
hina: In order to fight Date Tech again,
hina: we need to b*at them first!
sign: Haikyu!!
sign: Haikyu!!
take: Congratulations on completing the first day.
kara: Thank you!
kei: Unlike our other opponents, Wakutani South
kei: has third-years left on the team, just like us.
kei: They are a well-rounded team.
kei: Their defense and tenacity are close to Nekoma's.
kei: Don't lose your temper just because you can't get your att*ck in.
kei: Especially the hyperactive ones and simpletons.
sawa: It'll be fine. We'll follow up on them.
both: Th-Thank you very much.
kei: Damn it. They're more under control than I made it sound.
sawa: Yeah, leave it to me.
sawa: All right. We're going to make it through tomorrow, too.
sawa: Karasuno, fight!
all: Yeah!

A younger brother?

sawa: Come on, concentrate.
sei: Go, go, Takeru!
take: What's the matter, Ukai-kun?
kei: We're going all out, Sensei.
take: Huh?
kei: It might just be my gut feeling,
fam: Go, go, Takeru! Go, go, Wakunan!
but this Wakunan team
kei: may be hard for our team to handle.

person: Captains.
both: Let's play.

sawa: We're honored.
shima: Heyo.
yachi: Ah, Shimada-san, hello.
yachi: Are you by yourself?
shima: Takinoue has work today.
shima: He said he could probably come by in the afternoon.
sae: Man, I'm getting hyped!
sae: This really gets you fired up, huh?
yachi: Hello.
shima: She reminds me of someone...
sae: Hey! Thanks for always taking care of Ryunosuke.
I'm his older sister, Saeko.
shima: Tanaka's sister!
They look alike.
sae: Ryu! Ryu-chan!
nishi: Ne-san!
tana: Geh.
sae: I came to cheer you on!
both: Let's play!
sae: Get 'em!
shima: The second day begins...
They'd better survive.
hina: Bring it!
naka: Nice serve!
sawa: Got it!
shima: Good! First, break through with a quick!
suga: All right!
kara: All right!
yama: Hinata, nice k*ll!
sei: Wh-What the heck was that?!
yuu: A quick? Was that just luck?
naka: All right, we're shutting them down quickly next.
matsu: Yes!
Yeah!
shima: What? Wakunan doesn't seem very surprised by that quick.
naka: There's no one in Karasuno
that you can call a flightless bird anymore.
naka: They're the most outrageous team in the prefecture.
naka: We're super lucky to be able to play them.
kei: Looks like they've figured out how to deal with Hinata...
kei: They don't seem panicked at all.
take: I'm not sure if they're a bad match
take: or if they're just a team we won't do well against.
kei: Yeah.
kei: Unlike the trend up until now,
where Karasuno fights a team that just keeps throwing att*cks at them,
kei: we have a problem handling teams
naka: Their # 's serve is powerful!
Don't let your guard down!
that keep their own pace and deal with us intelligently.
all: Right!
kei: Seijoh and Nekoma are exactly that.
I see.
shima: Opponents who aren't surprised by that quick...
shima: Now, what are they gonna do?
sawa: Hinata, looks like
a powerhouse school is on their guard with you.
sawa: They've probably been researching you...
sawa: Researching you... Researching you...
sawa: Researching you... Researching you...
hina: A powerhouse school... researching me?
sawa: Man, you're totally overshadowing us.
hina: But I am able to triumph over myself from yesterday.
tana: Hey, if you guys are just watching Hinata, I'm gonna peck yer eyes out.
take: Well done, Captain.
He knows exactly how to get them going.
scoreboard ,sign: Karasuno Wakunan
azu: Kageyama, nice serve!
kage: That felt perfect against my hand.
naka: That's intense!
kawa: Nice receive!
guy: Pineapple Head is coming in from behind.
: He's so fast!
fam: You can do it, Wakunan!
yachi: Whoa! From the furthest back?
naka: Tabi, nice k*ll!
You can do it, Wakunan!
shima: A delayed att*ck, huh?
take: So that's Wakunan's w*apon, their combination...
take: Though their average height is not very high,
take: you can definitely see why they're always a top team in the prefecture.
kei: Yeah, but that's not Wakunan's only w*apon.
take: Eh?
kage: Don't keep reacting to the spiker each time!
kage: Go after the ball!
hina: I-I know that! In my head...
tana: But your body acts on its own...
I know how that feels.
scoreboard ,sign: Karasuno Wakunan
nishi: Nice receive!
aki: It's up! Cover!
hana: Takeru! Get the last!
sawa: We're going to stop it! Ready, and...
guy: A wipe...
waku: All right!
hina: They were targeting the edge of my hands.
take: It would appear that Nakashima-kun's technique in mid-air battles
is as troublesome as his combination.
kei: Nakashima Takeru...
Shiro! One more, nice serve!
His play style might be the most similar in the prefecture...
kei: to the former Little Giant.
mako: Takeru-ni, go!
takeru,sign: Takeru
all: All right!
other: Nakashima again! So good!
shima: This is how the pace is going to be...
They won't get too far ahead of us,
shima: but we won't be able to take the lead.
take: Does this mean that Nakashima-kun
can see really well, just like Hinata-kun?
kei: I don't know just how much Nakashima can see.
kei: Rather than aiming for small spaces like Hinata,
kei: I think he uses angles.
kei: I think he changes the angle of his spikes.
kei: He'll hit it against the blocker's hand,
to change up the angle of the rebound.
enn: Tsukishima, it's written all over your face.
yama: Concentrate on that receive!
suga: A strong one's coming!
tsuki: Well, as a blocker, spikers like that
are just plain annoying.
naka: Shiro, one more! Nice serve!
Right into the center!
I knew it was coming, but it's still so fast!
other: Karasuno's # isn't losing to Wakunan's # .
kara: All right!
aki: Damn it!
hina: Tanaka-san, nice serve!
naka: You almost had it!
tana: Yeah! Leave it to me!
You're reading them, though.
You'll get the next one for sure!
sawa: Half of that is just trying to get you riled up.
Don't give in.
naka: Oh?
shima: It appears that Wakunan has one blocker on Hinata for sure,
shima: but won't pursue, apparently.
kei: They put a tall middle blocker on Hinata,
and rather than stop him,
they limit his course and make it easier to receive.
kei: It's impossible to completely stop Hinata...
kei: They understand that,
but they're still not going to let Hinata do what he wants.
kei: But...
sawa: Our next generation of Little Giants
are going all out in a mid-air battle, but...
sawa: Don't forget about our kingly ace, either.
kage: Right.
kei: Looks like I don't need to say anything.
sawa: Nice serve!
sawa: I knew it. Their middle blocker is on Hinata.
sawa: And the other two are dealing with our other spikers.
sawa: However, if you're going to stop our ace...
sawa: You need to bring an iron wall.
naka: Damn it...
nishi: Asahi-san!
hina: Nice k*ll!
both: Right...
sawa: All right, we're good.
Everyone's calm. This is how we're going proceed.
kawa: Damn it...

Let's make sure we take it!
Right!

naka: Over on the right, in the third row, there's a super cute girl.
kawa: Seriously?
Whoa!
kawa: Keep getting the ball to me!
hana: Right, right...
kawa: I'm gonna get this next one, no matter what!
hana: Good work, Takeru.

takeru,fam: Fight!
naka: I'm used to surviving in a Jurassic Park filled with free-willed people.
yuu: I'm gonna go play.
naka: What?!
naka: If my house is Jurassic Park,
mako: Yay!
this is just a zoo.
naka: Makoto, where are you going?!
ai: Okay, say "Ah."
naka: Don't underestimate the second brother who's been through hell.
sei: Aah.
naka: We're Wakunan, known for our tenacity!
This is when we show what we're worth!
guys: Yeah!
take: Their captain's a pretty good foundation, as well.
kei: Yeah. If that last game was a bunch of playing,
kei: this match is going to be about the captains.

sawa: Nice cover!

sawa: Asahi!
yachi: Nice, Akiu!

shima: This is the longest rally of the day.
shima: Whoever gets this is going to get the momentum of the game.
shira: Don't let your guard down!
We're definitely going to get this one!
Yeah!
hana: Takeru, I'm counting on you!
Yeah!
kawa: Three blockers!

Go!
shima: Get the last one over!
Go!
yachi: We did it!
yachi: All right!
shima: Er...
shima: Huh?

hina: That's so cool, having your family cheer you on.
tsuki: I would hate it.
hina: Why?

hina: Huh?
tsuki: I'm not sure how to feel about having
the same opinion as Tanaka-san.
