Tashi: All right, first-years, introduce yourselves.
All: Right!
Suga: I-I'm Suga Koshi from Nagamushi Junior High.
Suga: I played setter.
Sug: Thank you for having me.
Azu: I-I'm Azumane Asahi from Sekodai Junior High.
Azu: I played left. Thank you for hafing mwe!
Azu: I messed up…
Sawa: I'm Sawamura Daichi from Izumitate Junior High!
Sawa: I played left. After seeing Karasuno's match at nationals,
Swa: I decided I would come to Karasuno!
Sawa: Thank you for having me!
Tash: Oh, I see. That's great.
Tash: Let's strive to win at nationals!
All: Right!
Tsh: Oh, I'm Tashiro.
I guess you could call me the captain of this club.
Guy: All right. I'll stop by again once you guys are done.
Tash: Right!
All right, let's start practice!
All: Right!
Suga: Um...
That teacher was the advisor, right?
Suga: Is there someone else that's more like a coach?
Kuro: Nope.
Sawa: That was Kurokawa-kun from Hisa Junior High, right?
Azu: Do you know him?
Sawa: Our schools played each other,
Sawa: and I remember his offense and defense both being really good.
Suga: Seriously? That's awesome.
All: We finally made it to the Karasuno!

Tash: Hey, Kurokawa. Tell me the secret behind receiving serves.
Kuro: I'm the type that goes right for the ball once the other team hits it.
Tash: I see...
Tash: Clean up!
All: Right!
sawa: Say, even though there's a tournament coming up, we haven't had many practice matches...
azu: They were saying that ever since Coach Ukai's been gone,
we've lost connections with other schools.
Suga: Apparently, even the school we regularly had practice matches with
declined the offer for the most recent match.
Sawa: Why?
Kuro: It means that we're not worth their precious time.
Sawa: I knew that Karasuno was different than before...
Sawa: But I thought that if we kept practicing,
Sawa: we could bring things up again.
Sawa: It's not like there were big troubles, or any hopeless situations...
Sawa: Yet...
Sawa: There was a fear that felt like we were gradually getting lost...
Sawa: Um...
Sawa: Could I stay behind and practice a little more?
Sawa: I'll make sure to lock up!
Azu: M-Me, too!
Suga: Me, too! We'll let Sensei know, too!
Tash: S-Sure...
Swa: We can't go on like this!
It may seem like there's time, but there really isn't!
Suga: You totally sound like a teacher!
Azu: Are you really the same age as us, Sawamura-kun?
Sawa: Even if we just pick up the balls, there's still something we can do!
Sawa: Read the ball's course from the form of the spike!
Kuro: Hey! Why did you catch that?
Sawa: I-I'm sorry!
Sawa: We'll think and act on our own.
Sawa: We'll do everything that we possibly can right now.
Guy: Starting tomorrow, we have the Inter-High qualifiers.
Guy: Let's do our best so that we don't have any regrets.
All: Right!
Tash: Let's strive to win at nationals!
Guy: Hey, I've been thinking this for a while,
Buy: but why don't we strive for something more attainable?
Tash: What?
Guy: They say that aiming for goals that are too high is connected to losing confidence,
Guy: and not good.
Guy: Wh-What the heck?
Tash: Every time I would mention winning at nationals,
you would just scoff and ignore me...
Tash: Now you want to argue with me?
Tash: What the heck? Why the heck am I sort of happy about this, damn it?!
Guy: Wha? Like I would know!
Tash: I don't feel like we were able to share our goals,
Tash: but I feel like we're definitely doing better than before!
Tash: And we all share the desire to win the upcoming match.
Tash: We're gonna win this thing!
All: Yeah!
volley-flashbackoverlap,Guy: Yeah!
Swa: And so, the Miyagi qualifiers of the Inter-High...
Sign: Karasuno Araigawa
Sawa: Karasuno lost in the second round,
Sawa: and the third-years retired.
Yko: Karasuno's fallen back down to earth...
Tash: We started working together way too late.
Tash: You know how they say,
Tash: "Chance favors the prepared mind," right?
Tash: There's a chance that Karasuno may never get stronger...
Tash: Even if they do, it might be years from now.
Tash: Even so, if the chance appears, you'd better grab it!
Sawa: Now. We have to go now.
Sawa: This is that chance!
Kei: Hinata's block that the opponent hadn't been ready for
Kei: will definitely shake them up.
Kei: That itself is a subtle cr*ck
volley-internal-top,: and the wind's definitely blowing in our favor right now.
Sign: Karasuno Shiratorizawa
Leon: Chance ball!
Shim: Damn it!
Tak: Guard that desperately stolen half-step lead with everything you've got!
Shir: Goshiki!
Hina: I moved a moment late!
Kage: Hinata's block that suddenly enters the field of view...
Kge: They can't just ignore it.
Kage: It's definitely going to be a straight.
Nish: Leave it to me!
Kei: All right!
Sawa: Nice k*ll, Asahi!
Asa: I can't lose to Hinata and Tanaka.
Sawa: Kageyama, you got a great receive, too.
Kage: Thanks.
Sign: Karasuno Shiratorizawa
Sawa: Their serve is strong! We're going to cut it off at one!
All: Right!
Sawa: Nishinoya!
Nish: Sorry! It's long!
Gosh: Hold it, Tsutomu!
Karasuno's setter has his back to the net.
Gosh: There won't be a dump. Watch carefully...
Gosh: He's already there!
All: All right!
Semi: Damn it!
Ten: We've gotten this far, and their moves are as sharp as ever.
Ten: They must be stamina monsters.
Shim: Man...
That move's gotta be hard to repeat.
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Nish: We're counting on you!
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Shir: That # finally went back.
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Yama: Tsukki! Don't lose to Hinata!
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Tsuk: Huh?!
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
tsuK: It's not like we're competing.
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Tsuk: Hey.
Kage: Huh?
Hina: We're counting on you!
Yama: Right!
Shiratorizawa!
Kage: I can do it, but can you?
Shiratorizawa!
Kei: Well... I practiced with Akaashi-san, so...
Kage: This guy's practicing with Fukurodani's setter?
Kage: I'm super jealous!
Kei: Hinata!
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Kei: Sit! From here on out, it's going to be a battle of stamina.
Kei: Rest while you can.
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Hina: Okay.
Yama: I don't want to lose to Hinata, either.
Yama: This time, I'm going to make my chance for sure!
Yach: Yamaguchi-kun, nice serve!
Sae: Huh? Looks like he's going to hit really close to the edge this time.
Kei: Your serve will become a w*apon.
Kei: Straight. Just concentrate on hitting straight.
Kei: Right where Ushiwaka is!
Kei: Yes! We broke through!
Ki: And...
Ushi: Goshiki!
Gosh: Right!
Kei: Ushiwaka will follow...
Yama: Three blockers!
Gosh: Don't underestimate me.
I'm going to break through!
Both: One touch!
Tana: Why, you...
Yama: Nice cover!
Both: One person time difference...
Tsuk: You're not the only one
Tsuk: that was preparing a new move at the training camp, Hinata.
Kara: All right!
Sign: Karasuno Shiratorizawa
Guy: Karasuno broke through!
Guy: That first-year is pretty ballsy.
Hina: Damn it, Tsukishima! Damn it...
Yama: Nice k*ll, Tsukki!
Wash: You're lowering your elbows!
Wsh: You're not going to be able to hit anything even if it's perfectly hittable like that!
Wash: You've got those huge bodies of yours!
So you need to be more...
Sai: Dynamic?
Wash: Yeah!
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Wash: It's true that Karasuno's defense is evolving throughout the match,
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Wash: even if it's just a thin veneer.
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Wash: But...
Ushi: A defense with no holes doesn't exist.
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Tana: Yamaguchi, one more!
Shira: It's in! Towards the front!
Yama: Got it!
Ym: Damn it...
Taki: Ushiwaka's hits aren't easing up.
Aki: But since he's hit so much, he must be feeling it in his legs by now.
Shim: Yeah. If Ushiwaka keeps going like this,
Shim: he'll eventually reach the end of his stamina.
Sign: Karasuno Shiratorizawa
Hna: Go, Asahi-san!
Nish: Got it!
Hina: It didn't line up!
Sae: All right! Lucky!
Yach: My heart felt so tight! But it all worked out!
Sae: They're at set point!
Shim: Their first five-set match,
and their opponents have been to nationals more than once.
Taki: The fourth set on is unknown territory for Karasuno.
Ten: He's able to make sense out of their # 's ridiculous att*cks,
Ten: and has been doing it ever since the match started like it was easy.
Ten: Precision may be expected of him, probably more than anyone else...
Ten: And as he faces more pressure from the opponent's blockers than anyone else,
Ten: he touches the ball more than anyone else in the match.
Ten: Looks like that one might have reached his limits first.
Kage: Sorry.
Tsuk: You apologizing is creepy, so please don't.
Kage: What?!
Tsuk: See? You're fine.
Tana: Daichi-san, nice serve!
Yama: Front!
Shir: Ushijima-san!
Bg: All right!
Nish: Damn it!
Yach: Could that be their second pinch server?
Aki: Since it's Shiratorizawa, I'm sure they've got a deep team.
Aki: Please just don't bring this into a deuce...
Guy: Let's go!
Kei: A jump float serve!
Nish: Sorry!
Kage: Azumane-san!
Take: He picked it up!
Kei: It's Ushiwaka!
Leon: Wakatoshi!
Tsuk: Here we go. Ready, and...
Tana: Damn!
Wash: When you defend a part of the court,
Wash: you are always sacrificing another part of the court.
Wash: If you brace for a powerful hit and move back, of course...
Wash: The front will be open.
Guy: Nice k*ll, Ushijima!
Sign: Karasuno Shiratorizawa
Bg: Ushijima!
Bg: Ushijima!
Shima: They were totally aiming for the open space...
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Taki: But I thought Kageyama would be able to get that...
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Taki: It must be exhaustion.
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Ten: Is the exhausted setter going to have to face the deuce of despair?
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Kage: The only time I will ever feel despair
Kage: is when I won't be able to play volleyball anymore.
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Bg: Shiratorizawa!
Ten: All of you guys are monsters.

Kei: You were able to follow up with a one touch.
All: Right!
Kei: Can you go on, Kageyama?
Of course.
Suga: If you're exhausted, I can switch with you at any time.

Tsuk: Hey, could you not just run into me?
Tsuk: You're not Hinata. Jump up. Up.
Kage: What?! This wouldn't be considered bumping into you!
You just lack training!
Tana: You two!
Guy: Seriously, give me a break! I can feel my lifespan shortening.
Yoo: Hmph. This ain't nothing.
Guy: Says the guy who was panicking when it was Shiratorizawa's chance ball.
Yoko: It ain't nothing.

and didn't gather any attention...
Yoko: I'm counting on you, Karasuno!
Shira: Whoa, what?
Enn: Who's that?
Yama: N-No idea...
Old: That guy's still coming to our matches?
Kei: Then I guess we can't let him down.
Kei: Get out there!
Kage: For me, the most troublesome person isn't any kind of opponent blocker,
Kage: it's him...
Hina: All right!
Vice: We're going to win!
Vice: Go, go, Karasuno! Push it, push it, Karasuno!
All: Go, go, Karasuno! Push it, push it, Karasuno!

Hina: Hey, Tiredyama-kun.
Hina: I can hit any kind of toss, no matter how sucky!
Go, go, Karasuno! Push it, push it, Karasuno!
Kage: I never suck!
Hina: Right!
Shima: If Sugawara is coming in as a pinch server right now,
Shim: that means they're going the rest of this set with Kageyama as the setter.
Taki: Well, nothing good would come out of
suddenly changing them out at a time like this.
Sawa: Suga! Get a nice serve in!
Yama: Leon, up front!
Sawa: Nice receive!
Ten: Your beautiful form...
Ten: is falling apart!
Suga: Out!
Sign: Karasuno Shiratorizawa
All: All right!
Aki: I think it'd be okay to rely on the left a little bit, but...
Aki: Kageyama-kun sure is confident.
Old: It's a silent plea.
Old: No matter how tired he is or how tense things get,
: he doesn't plan on backing down on the att*cks.
Old: So he wants the middle blocker to keep up his guard, too.
Gosh: Bring it!
Aki: That was good!
Sai: Front!
Nish: Chance ball!
Both: It's short!
Old: Volleyball is a sport where you can't hold the ball.
Old: You're only allowed to touch the ball for a few seconds...
Old: You need to control that moment,
Old: as though ball were
a part of your body.
Ten: His body's going right, but...
Ten: He used his left hand.
Sign: Karasuno Shiratorizawa
All: All right!
Kei: They're turning misfortune into fortune, or something...
Wash: Do you have glue on your feet, or something?!
You idiots! You could have gotten that ball!
Cko: Wow...
Mich: They finally caught up!
Guy: Seriously?
Tana: Nice, Hinata! Good reaction.
Hina: Thanks!
Swa: This is our ultimate opportunity.
Tash: If the chance appears,
you'd better grab it!
Sawa: We can do this.
Sawa: Let's go!
Kage: Nice cover.
Hina: Then at least say it with a nice face!
Hina: More importantly, Kageyama...
Hina: We get to play one more set!
Kage: Yeah.
Suga: When we were first-years,
Suga: for about six months, I internally called you "Hafing Mwe," Asahi.
