Fax it was a great touch to the video

[@gachagenie]

I love how much Asahi has matured in these last 4 season. I remember in season 1 he was so traumatized by Date tech's blocking that he actually quit volleyball for 2 months. And now even though Date Tech's blocking has gotten ALOT better he's no longer afraid and is just focused on trying new things to get past the blockers. Furudate sensei is so good at writing slow, believable, character growth. People don't just change overnight, it takes time.

[@kas349]

@@ElevateYourselfOfficial coach asahi hit the block so it was a blockout thats why they got the point

[@justalowlife]

@@kas349 To be fair, I think Hinata befriending Aone and the team just generally becoming on better terms with Date Tech helped Asahi's growth IMMENSELY. Don't get me wrong, Asahi has gotten really good at handling his anxiety and becoming stronger mentally overall, but I think these 2 things were involved in this as well.

"Whoever stops adjusting won't be able to continue forward" - I remember reactions back from S1, where Coach was talking about how whoever makes the last adjustment wins, and then seeing this in S4 and admiring yet again just how accurate Haikyuu is with its sport~ The moment with Kinoshita ("I'll do a serve that Nishinoya can't get"): at first he said that he's just going to join Nishinoya, who was going to practice his overheads. But after hearing him talk, he felt motivated and changed his mind, deciding that he's not just here to help Nishinoya - he's here to practice his own jump float serve first and foremost, and he's going to make such a good one that Nishinoya won't be able to receive them. Thanks to the editor for all the references from the original reaction, that was hilarious :"D

[@gh-ps5es]

When Hinata jumps for the spike with a faster tempo, he is automatically eliminated from the list of attackers, so the opponent may have an easier time with defense. "Getting lost in the crowd" is him basically matching his tempo with his team (just as he did in the match point in the Shiratorizawa match) to give more information for the opponents to process.

[@selensewar]

I started the video and immediately went in the comments, a force of habit. And i was confused with so many people explaining a fairly obvious thing. And then i got to 7:50 of the video...

[@jiteshjensondas277]

It helps to definitely screw up the opponent's blocking ability because they have to decipher more things at once

[@mukullataroy2195]

Getting lost in the crowd is another new aspect of Hinata's decoy skills. He says his best talent is not getting caught by blockers, so that can mean going too fast for them to catch up, or blending in with the other spikers to make the opponents stop and think. It's another tool in Karasuno's arsenal!

[@theclockworkheart]

coach, your editor is doing a great job! not only with their transitions and the actual editing, but also just having a haikyuu fan edit these videos -- putting in the right clips or screenshots to go along with what you say, making funny references (the hoshiumi "HAAA?" from when you mistook him for bokuto at the national youth training camp still gets me), the noya meme -- all of those things ELEVATE your videos even further (ha, couldn't help it). so great job all around!! 😊

[@pratitghosh5973]

4:14 He didn't jam a finger, Aone jam-med (Read: rammed) into him hard during that block... That's why you see Aone apologising in that frame! That's just a littl bit of Haikyuu humour! 4:52 The ball touched the blocker (Koganegawa)'s finger, so it was indeed out of bounds, but it was a wipe/block-out. SO they got the point! (Edit: Editor-san noticed it and put it in the video lol! I comment too fast)

[@Pavl0sss]

[@Danny.0788]

[@kellogsbeast]

The running gag of Aone hurting Futakuchi whenever he comes in to close a block will never not be funny.

[@aceisawesome_]

for blocks and for chestbumps too, futakuchi suffering as team captain is super funny lmao

[@alexanderpulido3666]

Hey coach! Just a couple of things to point out - At the beginning, karasuno won because asahi spike's hit the blockers hand before going out. - Your interpretation of "getting lost in the crowd" is correct, usually Hinata would jump first before anyone else in the team, now he's slowing his tempo down to match the team and only uses the super quick when necessary, making it way more effective. This change will be key in upcoming chapters, actually, a lot of things that happened in this chapter, foreshadow plays from future games. Keep up the great work man, loving the reactions and the new setup

[@kookie7714]

Woahh thanks for this!

[@CleetjeLovesHusky]

12:58 What I believe that Grandpa Ukai means with the freak quick being wasted, is that at that point, Karasuno was actually using it as the backbone of their offense. They were hitting as many freak quicks as possible, even if they were being blocked, thus slowly witling away the moment of surprise and its effectiveness. Their opponents adapted to the Freak Quick with ease. If they had done like they did just now, which is to let Hinata disappear in the crowd by letting the rest of the team attack, then the Freak Quick can suddenly emerge out of nowhere and steal a point. Doing that would confuse the opposing defense. Are they going to set Hinata? Or is he going to fake? Are they setting the left Wing Spiker? The Right? By the time they make up their mind, Karasuno is already attacking.

[@bucciaratiswife]

[@cosmix1]

That's true, especially given when Old Man Ukai said it! I think you've solved one of my biggest confusions.

[@dogborks]

[@CleetjeLovesHusky]

@@dogborks Indeed, so many options that they basically wasted because they didn't know better.

[@randomdud668]

The tension between the three date upperclassmen and the karasuno upperclassmen was probably because of their decision to continue to play. The date characters aren't alumni they are also in their last semester just like daichi and the rest, however they decided to leave the team to focus on their studies while the karasuno upperclassmen did not.

[@seekittycat]

A common gag from Date Tech is their captain getting bumped by Aone because Aone reacts so fast and it's why he's clutching his sides in pain while going "don't mind".

[@jas8288]

that "kageyama in a shiratorizawa" and "feed ushijima" edit at 3:08 had me laughing out loud. props to editor!

[@timfangrad5173]

That last point was deflected off the blocker so that's why it landed out of bounds. I love how Tsukki cheers up Yamaguchi by basically saying "Don't worry about being replaced, the team is just getting another good player that's all"

[@saur_dinah]

I like how at 6:58, Tsukki showed more of his slightly ‘chaotic’ character. Usually (from how I see it), he would make snarky remarks either from the sideline, in a very cool/calm or posed manner. Moreover, I also see him as a reserved person. Which is why, when I first saw this scene, I giggled because I really didn’t expect a scene showing Tsukki to act/pose this way. It kinda shows how Tsukki’s becoming more comfortable and confident.

[@elisabethn2893]

He's showing his dorky side and I love it, they really are just teenagers *squishes his evil little cheeks like a grandma*

[@harulean]

My understanding of "get lost in the crowd" is Hinata doesn't jump first for the synchronized attack. Normally, he would jump out first than everyone as a decoy but "get lost in the crowd" is apparently Hinata being in synch with the others as they jump. BTW, great reaction! Love the flashbacks! It's hilarious! 😆

[@timfangrad5173]

Spot on!

[@SolarSkyline]

Exactly that! To put it simply, he matches their tempo but stays as an attacker and when they think itll happen again, he goes back to the minus tempo or a back minus tempo.

[@Morpheus-t1h]

I can so relate to having a different kind of work ethic and grit cuz of older siblings, I have 4 older brothers so I totally get what you were sayin coach

[@yeahimhere7347]

I like how coach Dony from the past just roast anything that looks hilarious and now he just enjoying the detail. You've grown my boy 🤣

[@abcitsv]

On Asahi's last spike, he successfully hit the shot that he was apologizing for to Kageyama in the previous episode. He held the spike position to the moment that the blockers started to fall and hit high hands off of Aone as he and the blockers were on their way down which sent it way out on the wipe. I'm not sure if you caught that, but if you watch the scene again, you'll see the blockers and Asahi falling for just a moment before he hits the spike. Also Kageyama wasn't encouraging Tanaka on his line shot. He was surprised because he though Tanaka went for a cross court and he successfully deceived even Kageyama. Great video. I loved your insights! See ya next week

[@thomasthomsen2678]

It's pretty interesting to see this scrimmage and know the backstory about how Dateko were the ones to make Asahi quit or almost quit back in season one, due to being completely shut out. Another detail that you might have missed is that they are actually playing 8 sets in this long scrimmage, as you can see in the end of the match, so they do have a lot of time for adjustments but also just a war of stamina.

[@hihihihao]

24:00 Aone is actually second year which means he could face Karasuno next year. But still it wouldn't be the same because then suga, asahi, and daichi already graduated.

[@KoroftheSon]

5:45 Yeah, as your editor shows, Asahi did tool Kogane's block. But I can't blame you for missing it -- the anime sometimes does a poor job of making it obvious for us when someone's hand was touched and the ball lands out of bounds. In this case, it was just so fast that it's hard to catch it.

[@JamesLightner]

Editor here. Absolutely. It's incredibly fast, and you have to be perceptive, but also if you are used to volleyball, you can hear block immediately after the hit. Super easy to miss even if you do play/watch volleyball

[@Alwayz114]

With Hinata developing as a Decoy, I think the growth here is that he's choosing to be a decoy on purpose. Before he would run up with full intentions of hitting the ball, but Kageyama would decide to use him as a decoy and set elsewhere. This episode, however, Hinata seemed to purposefully bait Koganegawa into blocking him to make way for the rest of the synchro attack to work

[@elisabethn2893]

Oooh good point!!

I much appreciate the editor's decisions to add clips from the original episode 8, I was too lazy to rewatch the first version so getting quick clips in this video was much appreciated!

[@DeadLeeShooter]

Kageyama has my favorite quote from the show in this episode. “They have to adjust to me as I have to adjust to them whoever stops adjusting gets left behind.”

[@oneheartjournal]

Wow this video quality upgrade makes such a huge difference! About the "lost in the crowd" tactic, if you rewatch season 3- it is the same last adjustment that Hinata thought of which earned the game point for Karasuno against Shiratorizawa! Although at that time when it was used, it might have been a subconscious decision by Hinata, its great that they now know how to effectively use it, and the greatest decoy became even greater when its not used all the time!

[@solotxt7385]

I'm not sure if you noticed since it's so subtle but in that last point with Asahi getting a wipe off of Aone's hand, at the peak of his jump he pulled back his swing a little more to gain more power and he also waited for the Date Tech blocker to started falling before he swung. Because of those two circumstances he was able to get a clean wipe on them. Date Tech blockers noticed what Asahi was doing and was surprised at his hang time and his gutsiness for attempted such a point at the end of an exhausting scrimmage

[@james.ken_dama167]

Not sure if you noticed this detail, but for Asahi’s spike at around 19:22, he was trying out that thing he mentioned to Kageyama I think in the last episode: he was able to slightly delay his spike and pull back his arm a little more in the air as the Dateko blockers were starting to fall back down after jumping for the block. Fortunately he got a clean hit in :)

[@dhruvxsharm]

The editing on the videos this one in particular actually makes the reactions 10x funnier. Great job!

[@kaungmyatthar4784]

"The greatest wall in the prefecture has no eyebrows" 🤣 another ironic line from Coach 🤣

[@timfangrad5173]

I remember being so confused back when you skipped all the way to this episode. Also, if you look back at the white set slide in between the scores on the scoreboard at 18:45, you'll see that they went for 8 sets.

[@timfangrad5173]

I like how Kageyama made a point of mentioning that Hinata isn't trying to be a decoy, he is just naturally a good decoy because he believes he is going to hit the ball every time so he gives off that vibe to blockers

[@potatofarmer2490]

thanks for the finger pushup tips coach, i jam and sprain my fingers all the time playing, cuz of blocking and overhand passing, which kinda gave me a bad habit of never using overhead passes, so I need to train my fingers. I'll try to consistently train them everyday now. Your videos really help me a lot, thanks!

[@Alex2099-]

"Whoever stops adjusting won't be able to move forward." I remember coach Donny making a statement similar to this in a previous season, it is definitely spot on.

[@gaijinpain]

In the final part of the video, where you said something about adjusting, Kageyama actually said something similar a little bit before the halftime cut scene. Kageyama said that if the other team adjusts to him, then he will adjust to their adjustment, and whoever cant adjust to the other team will eventually lose or something along those lines. Apart from that, your reaction videos provide a ton of insight for actual games of volleyball. I am not in a team or anything, but I do mess around with my volleyball every now and then and with insights from your videos I can hopefully improve to end up being a decent player once I find a team.

[@gabrielnguyen9663]

We really enjoy these series and some of us couldnt afford to join the patreon.

[@noonlightsonata7565]

Also you were talking about coming back in the forth set. But they weren’t playing a proper match. They said they finally won after 4 sets which means they lost 3 sets and won the fourth. Then they showed the final score and you didn’t say anything about it being Set 8 (which is what the middle number implies) cuz they played 8 sets total

[@IAmElTigre]

I love Kageyama's line at 9:04 when he says "Whoever stops adjusting won't be able to continue forward." Like what coach has taught us, "The team that makes the last adjustment, wins". As a tennis player, this has been an incredibly important lesson that I've learned from playing the sport and has been reinforced from watching coach's videos.

[@hanhyun1]

At 28:55 when you are talking about ending up becoming more athletically accomplished than your more athletic older brother, it really reminds me of Shiratorizawas coach when he talks about the "hunger" that short players have in them in place of the height they are missing. Having to fight for everything makes you stronger, and in some cases that willpower is enough to win out over the natural athletic talent of others.

[@chaosof99]

22:34 Koganegawa's name is written with the characters "yellow", "metal", "river" (黄金川). Kageyama is mistaken and calls him "Konekogawa". Koneko (子猫) means "kitten". Also, Shoyo's little sister is named Natsu (夏) which means "Summer", fitting perfectly into their family name Hinata (日向) that means "Toward the sun".

[@mohsinjawad3892]

[@rhyestripes6059]

i love ow kageyama said the same thing as coach about the last adjustment

[@CrimsonColbat]

Kogan is a super fun character he is like Hinata if he were a setter.

[@alphabattack]

Also, the reason they reference the sky so much is that the word for moon is Tsuki and Hinata is a reference to a sunny place (I think. Not a japanese speaker in any way). So Tsukki and Hinata both have references to the sun and moon in their names, and that's why they are always portrayed both with sun and moon graphics, as well as being opposites

[@zethstar3475]

lost in the crowd is when hinata goes from minus, to first tempo to match up with everyone else

[@legoman4100]

Video is lookin great. The editor is really nailin it. Thumbnail is better than the last episode, but I think it's still a little messy tho, the haikyuu logo and the episode number placement are a little weird

[@fuyutupx1437]

Something to consider about Hinata when Kageyama was observing Hinata and noting that it looked like Hinata was "luring" kogane and you said that you felt Hinata has been "luring" opponents since he accepted his role as Decoy is that just like the show has been about watching Hinata go from being naturally athletic with a love of volleyball to learning how to play it properly to learning how to consciously analyzing how to play better. His journey as "the best decoy" is like that too. It was basically natural because the freak combo was so show stopping and eye catching. And naturally captures attention, but then was foiled pretty quickly with the practice match with Nekoma and Hinata realized it can't just be the blind set, he has to hit & control the shot himself too. But as coach Ukai said, it still isn't being best utilized as noted in this episode because they were still using hinata & kageyama's minus tempo as a main attack which starts to lose its impact when seen too much making. To alternatively it's best used is as a sneak attack that draws attention suddenly because then it suddenly draws attention to Hinata who has been blending in with the group and allows him to strategize how to use all his skills to be the best decoy. Hinata prior just by happenstance was naturally doing very good decoy work with his natural abilities before, but the Hinata now is putting his first steps into learning to strategize with his abilities to become an even better decoy

[@treyirby949]

I would like to see you take on the “Hinata self passing drill”!

[@rhyssnyder1652]

I think this might have been overlooked slightly, but in the score keeping they keep track of the set they are on with the number between the scores. If you look closely, Date Tech’s blocking formation didn’t get broken until Set 8. Which would mean that in a regular, or even 5set game, their blocking formation would remain the same.

[@guertron3460]

18:56 "they are about to win the 4th one" except it seems it os the 8th one, as the marker shows it before.(if im not mistaken) thats why tsukki was so burnt out. also the reason why datekos player told his upperclassman who were watching the match if they hadnt anything else to do.

[@nahima]

I don't know if any other team truly could have helped Kageyama grow the way he did. We know his skills are A+ but like in his Jr High days, that doesn't make you someone ANYONE wants to play with

[@eunniestorage7466]

29:42 canonically daichi has 4 younger siblings that are a lot younger than him. he'd be that nurturing & caring type of an older brother. there was an official art illustration by the author where daichi was carrying his younger sister on a piggyback, and his younger brother clinging onto him (kinda cute & adorable)

[@ArgKnoxville86]

"Get lost in the crowd" goes back to the last point in the Karasuno vs Shiratorizawa match, when Hinata slowed from a "minus tempo" to a "1st tempo" to be running with all the team. If he goes for a minus, then Dateko figures he will not partake in the synchronized attack, so they can read karasuno's attack easier (e.g. it is either Hinata attacking or the rest). If Hinata joins the synchronized attack he does his function better as a decoy for that type of attack. It is fun and very intersting that Dateko is such a different team that Karasuno needs a custom strategy and logic just to fight them. Even though Dateko never even got close to beating Shiratorizawa or Seijoh (teams that were much harder for Karasuno) they are still such an original team that are a very real threat to Karasuno's style.

The tension with the Date Tech third years is that, well, they've chosen to leave their club.

[@codywild6182]

Lost in the crowd means, using different tempos during the synchronized attack. Usually Hinata is at minus (freak) tempo for the synchro. This gives the D dense a somewhat easier time defending since they can defend hinata first thennnnnnn focus on the next 4 hitters. If Hinata gets lost in the crowd he’s going at least one tempo slower meaning the Dfense will have to try to defend 5 hitters all at once. Similar to the Bruce lee films where he fights 100 men but they tend to attack in succession vs all at once. 😉

"get lost in the crowd" is translated differently by other subs to just say to "blend in" and then they follow up and do the snychro attack with all of them

I love the flashbacks to the first time you watched this episode! It'd have been fun watching you react to your reaction lol!

The audio is butter coach! The video's look and sound better than ever.

Lost in a crowd was explained the first time he thought of it in the Final point against Shiratorizawa. Grandpa Ukai said that he lower his tempo down from Minus to First and then mixing it in with everyone else. Because everyone is focussing on Hinata cuz they are anticipating him running out first and fast but when he doesn’t move they are distracted. Cuz he’s still being a decoy even when he isn’t running out first. The more he scores the more they pay attention to him

Thanks for another great video! Just a tiny thing: the anime sound is too low, it's a bit hard to follow along! Especially since the video is dulled I really rely on the subtitles and the sound to understand what's happening.
