yama: Sorry... I'm gonna go to the bathroom...

yama: So go on ahead.

hina: He's really pumped about going to the bathroom.

kage: He must need to take a sh*t.

hina: Say "poop!" You're so vulgar, Kageyama-kun!

kage: Crap.

tsuki: I don't think he actually went to the bathroom...

hina: Poop.

kage: Crap.

hina: Poop.

kage: Crap.

hina: Poop!

yama: Ukai-san...

yama: I'm sorry for wasting my chance.

yama: "How effectively you serve

: will determine if you can win or not."

yama: I heard your direction during the Fukurodani match and understood it...

: And I understood my role.

yama: And then I thought I wanted to be able to fight, too...

yama: But...

yama: I ran away at the last minute.

yama: Please...

yama: Give me one more chance.

kei: Oh, shut up already. I know.

yama: Please put me in.

sign: Aoba Johsai Karasuno

taki: This isn't good.

taki: Seijoh's # is finding his groove.

seih: Great, great, Issei! Push it, push it, Issei! One more time!

shima: They're ahead by five...

yachi: Karasuno, fight!

azu: Let's move back a little.

He's probably not going to drop it up front.

sawa: Yeah.

tana: Right.

iwa: Nice serve!

tana: Bring it, bring it, bring it...

sawa: Tanaka!

tana: Yeah!

both: Yeah!

scoreboard,sign: Aoba Johsai Karasuno

sae: It's only just begun!

nishi: Shoyo, nice serve!

haru: Hey! That guy...

take: Pardon me. We're switching players.

guy: Oh, there he is. The scaredy cat pinch server.

guy: Right. The guy who was in the match with Wakunan, too.

guy: Though I totally understand getting freaked out.

guy: I would hate having to serve during a pinch.

haru: He's the one that got all stiff and failed miserably last time, right?

yuu: Yeah...

hina: Yamaguchi, get points!

yama: That'd end the match...

hina: I'd forgive you.

tana: G-Give it to 'em good, Yamaguchi!

azu: R-Remain calm... Calm.

kage: Nice serve!

tsuki: Nice serve.

sawa: Give it your all!

yama: Right!

all: One, and...

all: Yamaguchi, one more! Nice serve!

shima: Eight seconds...

shima: You know there's time after the whistle blows for you to serve, right?

yama: Yes.

shima: You basically get freaked out by the whistle and then

do your serve toss almost every time.

shima: Don't be so panicky.

yama: Yes...

shima: Well, all that's left is this.

shima: You went to Ukai's, right?

yama: Yes.

shima: On your own.

shima: Then you're already a completely different player.

shima: Go out there and do what you want to do.

oika: All of their players have the nerve to get serious...

watari: Out!

yama: All right!

kara: All...

kara: ...right!

yama: He did it...

sae: Tadashi!

taki: Nice serve!

girls: It got in!

haru: We're...

yuuko: ...supposed to be...

aka: ...cheering for Aoba Johsai.

guy: Wait, what? Isn't that a bit overboard?

hina: Yamaguchi, nice serve!

guy: That's just one point.

taki: That's it! Get one more!

tana: A no-touch ace!

taki: Go and catch up!

watar: I'm sorry.

iwa: Don't mind! Don't worry about it.

hana: It changed a lot... Even I thought it was out.

oika: This is why I hate jump floats.

tana: That was awesome, Yamaguchi! Why, you little...

yama: R-Right...

tsuki: It's not that surprising.

tana: There you go again...

tsuki: In these five months,

tsuki: he practiced serving more than anyone else.

tana: Why you little...

sign: Aoba Johsai Karasuno

hina: Yamaguchi, one more!

suga: Give it all you've got!

Give it all you've got, Yamaguchi!

enn: He'll be fine.

enn: You always feel worse after you run away.

enn: I'm pretty sure Yamaguchi feels that way, too.

take: A sh*t to break through the skin...

kei: Yeah, and...

kei: The start of our counterattack.

iwa: Cut it off!

matsu: Yeah.

take: In volleyball, where it's important to connect with your teammates,

take: the serve is the only solitary play.

kei: Yeah...

kei: It can also be said that it's the only play where you can score on your own.

kei: As volleyball evolved,

the serve's power and motive has evolved more than anything else.

kei: And in modern volleyball, the serve is a powerful att*ck

kei: that won't get caught by the wall known as the block.

wata: Kyotani!

kyo: Damn it!

tana: A s-second service ace!

yama: Yes!

kei: All right!

three: Yamaguchi!

tsuki: Nice serve.

sae: What the heck is that serve? That was awesome.

yachi: Yamaguchi-kun!

hina: Yamaguchi!

all: One more!

both: Bring it!

hana: Got it!

hana: You catch jump floats

hana: with an over-handed hit!

oika: Makki, nice.

yama: He picked it up! They're going to att*ck.

yama: This fear when you change from being the hunter to becoming the hunted...

hana: Iwaizumi!

both: He received it with his body?!

yama: Not yet... Not yet.

yama: I'm not going to let you serve just yet!

kara: Cover!

yaa: Thanks, Kageyama...

sawa: Tsukishima, get the last!

kara: All right!

yama: Tsukki...

shima: A wipe!

taki: They used that block really well.

Tsukishima!

sign: Aoba Johsai Karasuno

taki: Now they've gotten three consecutive points.

tsuki: One more.

yama: Yeah!

shima: Oh? Seijoh's taking a time out.

taki: They're physically stopping the momentum.

kara: All right!

suga: Making Seijoh take a time out is amazing, Yamaguchi!

hina: Yamaguchi!

yama: Th-Thank you...

iwa: That # ... made a really bold receive.

oika: That was just luck, though.

yama: Wow...

yama: It hurts a lot...

sae: All right! Let's win this!

taki: Keep it up!

yama: I want to be able to control my body like the other guys!

yama: I want to be able to control the ball!

yama: I want to fight head-on with strong opponents!

kara: All right!

nishi: Yamaguchi!

all: One more!

iwa: Keep your eye on the ball!

wata: Right!

shima: Listen up, Tadashi.

shima: You can't give them the chance to take the ball.

shima: Aim straight through, as close as you can get to the white...

yama: ...and hit!

yama: I only have one w*apon:

yama: my serve.

yama: The chance I received is just one service chance.

yama: I'm going to fight putting my pride and the flow of the game into that sh*t.

yama: I am...

yama: a pinch server.

all: It's in!

take: Is luck on our side now?

kei: No, it's not just that.

yachi: Now...

sign: Aoba Johsai Karasuno

We're tied.

sign: Haikyu!!

sign: Haikyu!!

sign: Aoba Johsai Karasuno

guy: Now they're tied!

guy: Karasuno caught up!

three: Yamaguchi!

sae: That same net drop happened during the Wakunan match, too, right?

sae: Tadashi's a lucky boy!

yachi: Yup, yup!

shima: It might be a net drop,

shima: but it's completely different from the one during the Wakunan match.

shima: During the Wakunan match,

tana: Yamagauchi, one more!

Tadashi was thinking about whether or not the ball would go in.

hina: Yamaguchi, nice serve!

shima: Right now, he's thinking about

where he's going to serve it.

shima: This net drop was a result of switching to offense.

sae: How awesome, Tadashi!

shima: Though I'm sure he's entirely comfortable with that.

sawa: One more, Yamaguchi!

yama: The serve toss keeps getting really low.

oika: Right!

Let's calm down, now.

iwa: I am calm.

hana: That one couldn't be helped.

matsu: We'll get the next one.

oika: That's it, you guys!

You guys are too great. It makes your captain sad.

yama: It's got a loose spin!

It's not changing direction!

iwa: Got it!

oika: Nice receive!

tsuki: One-touch!

yama: Nice one-touch!

kage: Azumane-san!

tana: Nice, Kageyama!

sawa: Three blockers!

kei: And a very high block...

hina: Back!

tana: Out!

all: All right!

enn: Tanaka, nice call!

guy: H-Hey, seriously?

guy: They...

sign: Aoba Johsai Karasuno

Karasuno's at match point!

sawa: One more! Nice serve!

take: Yamaguchi-kun...

...is the hero of this match.

yachi: Just one more point...

sae: Just one more point and we win!

taki: Get it in! Please, get it in!

shima: Tadashi!

both: Yamaguchi! Just one more!

hina: Get it in there!

yama: Feels good...

wata: I'll get it!

nishi: Damn it, they're good.

oika: Nice, Watacchi!

three: Stop it!

yachi: Stop it, please!

seijoh: All right!

kinda: Nice k*ll!

crowd: Great, great, Hajime! Push it, push it, Hajime! One more time!

yabu: We finally cut it off...

How many points did he get, anyway?

take: That was magnificent!

kei: Good job!

yama: Thank you.

enn: You did great, Yamaguchi!

nishi: All right!

yama: Thanks!

suga: That was awesome!

hina: Concentrate on the one!

yama: Next time,

I'll get points.

hina: I'm not gonna lose!

iwa: Hanamaki, nice serve!

sawa: The chance that Yamaguchi gave us...

tana: Daichi-san!

sawa: We're not gonna let it go to waste!

kara: All right!

kei: Nice, Azumane!

shima: They're there again!

taki: Match point!

three: Go!

seijoh: All right!

take: They got it back so easily.

kei: They managed a quick even though they're being cornered right now.

kei: Not to mention, right up front.

kei: If it were me, I'd be relying on the ace.

Yeah!

sign: Aoba Johsai Karasuno

sawa: Nice receive!

iwa: There're two!

kara: All right!

sawa: Tsukishima, nice k*ll!

iwa: Hey, your movements are stiff, Kindaichi.

kinda: Yes! No!

iwa: Which is it?

kinda: This is a critical moment for us.

kinda: We can't make this the third-years' last match.

iwa: Don't think about anything unnecessary.

iwa: No matter what, you only need to focus on

iwa: the ball in front of you.

Right!

suga: Asahi, get this!

kino: Nice serve!

hana: It's long! Get this!

crowd: Great, great, Yutaro. Push it, push it, Yutaro! One more time!

kinda: All right!

iwa: Nice k*ll!

hana: Thanks!

taki: I guess that's to be expected of Seijoh.

shima: The next one is going to be huge.

shima: But...

person: And...

kei: ...in modern volleyball, the serve is a powerful att*ck

kei: that won't get caught by

kei: the wall known as the block.

sawa: That was basically a spike...

oika: All right!

others: All right!

crowd: Great, great, Toru! Push it, push it, Toru! One more time!

sign: Aoba Johsai Karasuno

score: Seijoh turned it around into a set point!

score: Are they going to get the set?

nishi: Damn it!

sawa: This isn't possible with just the two of us.

sawa: Asahi, please. We're counting on you.

azu: Yeah.

take: Azumane-kun's going to be receiving the serve, too?

kei: If that's what Sawamura and Nishinoya decided,

then that's probably best.

kei: It appears that Oikawa's serves focus more on power than control.

keei: Rather than them scoring a no-touch,

touching and getting the ball up in any way is better.

kei: We received plenty of Ubugawa's and Fukurodani's serves.

kei: It's okay. We can fight.

three: Bring it!

three: Nice serve!

nishi: Daichi-san!

take: Good!

sawa: Tanaka, nice!

tana: Kageyama!

sawa: Asahi!

nishi: Asahi-san!

person: Nice receive!

seijoh: All right!

sign: Aoba Johsai Karasuno

guy: They got the set back.

guy: I thought Karasuno was just going to win straight through.

taki: And we had them cornered!

sae: Don't mind!

yachi: We're just getting started!

shima: Damn it! That third set is gonna be rough!

sawa: Let's change it up!

both: Right!

yama: His serve really is amazing.

hina: You were awesome, too, Yamaguchi.

yama: He's much more experienced than I am.

yama: That might be obvious because he's a third-year,

yama: but I don't think that's the only thing.

hina: Not the only thing?

yama: A jump serve is a serve that balances a lot of power with a high risk.

yama: To be able to add force to his serve

and still have it land in when they were cornered like that...

yama: He's something special.

tana: Yamaguchi!

tana: Those were nice serves!

yama: Th-Thanks.

But I've still got a ways to go.

yama: Only half of my serves were any good.

tana: Then be super happy about the half that were good!

tana: Even if you put aside regret, you'll end up feeling it anyway.

tana: Right now, you need to make sure you grasp this good feeling

and never forget it.

nishi: Grasp really hard.

tana: And do it again next time, too.

yama: Yes!

sawa: So we ended up getting a full set...

sawa: Our first practice match,

sawa: the Inter-High prelims...

awa: And now...

sawa: We're having our most intense match yet.

sawa: Difficult opponents...

oika: Troublesome opponents...

sawa: We didn't even have much of a connection with them until last year...

oika: They were supposed to be beneath us...

oika: But apparently we're fated to play to the fullest.

sign: Aoba Johsai Karasuno

oika: The final set...

sei-bnnner,sign: Rule the Court

fly,sign: Fly

sawa: This is our last battle!

yachi: That was amazing, Yamaguchi-kun!

yama: Th-Thank you very much, Yachi-san.

yachi: Just in case, I had an AED, stretcher, and coffin prepared,

yachi: but they weren't necessary at all!

yama: Huh?! Wasn't there something that didn't belong at the end there?
