I wish I had something to say, but I always end up feeling there is not enough words to praise how beautifully executed this show has been. It's amazing that with such a large cast and over such a short period of time, we've been able to love and understand them all, and it feels amazing when a series pulls that off along with the pertinent emotions and fun. I did feel the scene of Kspoiler[ageyama and Hinata running around the court screaming] felt a little bit too much, but I'm still giving it a Masterpiece, because it stands as such a wonderful example of how to do a sports series and how to portray camraderie and sportsmanship and the feelings of coming-of-age teenagers. It's just so well done and there's not a single episode that dragged or seemed rushed or off. Seriously hoping for a S2 announcement soon (and given how popular it is and how much it's selling, my hopes should't be too off-base)

Ah, really each episode are so great! spoiler[even though they lost to Aoba Johsai ] the battle was intense that I couldn't blink an eye
of course, after seeing that ep. 25 was like  I felt why it have to come to an ending. Oh, gawd! this was soooo good. And now I am looking forward to next season and Definitely going to wait

Found a treat in my mailbox today! I pre-ordered the first BD set a little while back, which had a release date of June 2 (and still shows that at Rightstuf's site). So I was pretty astonished to find it released more than a month ahead of schedule.
Now I just need another Sentai sale to get the second set and Kamigami no Asobi.

Season 2, episode 1:
That was fun. Seeing the players like Hinata and everyone else back on the court was really neat. I also liked the comedy as usual like the ending they pulled there. Good to see that they have strong rivals to overcome as well. I love how Hinata declared that he will compete in the Nationals with that pride. Great stuff imo. Hoping this season will also be 2-couragain. (is that confirmed yet?) This was a wonderful way for the show to return. Loved he new OP song as well. |

Done and done.  Just finished watching 14-25 to get in the groove.
Asahi's looking a bit scragglier this season with the hairband (which seems backwards), but that looks like the only major change in character designs. Looks like we're getting an apprentice manager. I loved Hinata's steal at the end, and the shot with the face off between black and white birds and nature and concrete was a nice image, and is probably this season in a nutshell. Looks like it's gonna be great. |

Love love love! X3333 Haikyuu!! is baaaaaaaaaackkkkk!!!
Totally cracked up at the end. I love how they abruptly stopped the BGM. I was just thinking that it would be hilarious if they did that too.

Does anyone happen to know how the first season release is doing for Sentai? Common wisdom said it was a big risk, being a sports anime, and I was just wondering if it paid off.

Hinata and Kagyama are still the same ^^
It's always fun watching those two. They found new motivation, that's for sure! Guess we'll have more school this season, not just volleyball. Nice first episode. Felt just right! |

Thank god Haikyu is back to knock me out of my anime/manga sabbatical! Luckily I saw a Facebook post about it otherwise I'd be none the wiser!
What a wonderful first episode to bring back the fun and high energy Haikyu had in abundance last season. I'm glad the arc for this season has been set out so clearly this early on and hopefully with only a few training episodes to break us back in we will enter the Tokyo practice matches then straight into the next tournament. |

Episode 2
A bit slower than last ep, with some retreading of old ground, but in a delightful way. Plus new girl. She's already shining in her role, outpacing the usual shy girl trope. I honestly hope she and Hinata become friends and not love interests. I'd also like to see some more backstory on some of the players like Tsukishima (Kechishima ).
Nice to have Galileo Galilei for the ED. I really wish Sentai had given this series a dub so I could concentrate more on all the facial expressions.

Season 2, episode 2:
Saeko is awesome, I like her presence this season already so hope to see more of her. Not much volleyball this week but we do get a lot of comedy. I think Hitoka should be more confident in herself though and not compare herself with others. A lot of funny facial expressions this episode. Comedy gold. |

Schoolwork problems..
Time to get serious about their grades! Judging by this, sport & good grades just don't go together. Time to make a serious effort if they want to go to Tokyo. spoiler[Kageyama] was the worst when it came to studying LOL I half expected him to be some kind of a nerd, but nope.. spoiler[Yachi, the new future manager just got her hands full tutoring baka players.. Damn, that girl was so timid that it was ROFL Is she gona survive?] LOL |

Agreed!! She's already a great addition to the cast and adds a new dynamic without feeling like The Token Girl. (Kiyoko was too much in the background of season one to feel that way, I thought.) But regardless of how her relationship with Hinata turns out, I think that other guy is going to be kicking himself for suggesting that Hinata and Kageyama ask her to tutor them... |
