[@paradoxhamartia7843]

"This position. This timing. This angle. It's perfection!" * cue Atsumu's theme * In case you didn't realize, Atsumu's inner dialogue is the very same Kageyama had when him and Hinata performed their very first quick (episode 4 of season 1). Also, the irony of this scene. Karasuno usually assimilates other teams' strong points and makes them their own (omnivore crows, right?), but this time it was the rival team who did the copycatting. The Miya Twins are scary.

[@mjwodeyar8386]

And the reactors totally missed it, They are more hyped by saxophone music at that time

[@mikkosimonen]

@@mjwodeyar8386 It's not that weird, they've only seen the show once.

[@definitelynotdrei9561]

@@mikkosimonen yeah its not weird but i got that detail the first time i watched it,they just talked over the scene so they missed the details

Ye they tend to miss important details and watch more of the bigger picture...reebok :/

[@devgoyal614]

I am pretty sure they didn't notice that the last quick was same as Hinata and Kageyama's weirdo quick.

[@JacopoBasanisi]

I mean for casual viewer (and not really volleyball enthusiasts) S4 is hard to follow, is full of past references and more mature and serious, less time to "just laugh", so to speak. It's a wonderful match to watch, therefore we can't expect them to be attentive

[@MulberryFC]

@@JacopoBasanisi The show literally says wasn't that like the freak quick lol

[@MegaJabbawockeez15]

Cause they always talk over scenes.

[@MichaelDelfin0]

I mean they are "Normies" so what do you expect from them?

[@AremZzZ]

Every time something important is mentioned in the subs, they straight up never notice until the comments tell em💀

[@ICavalcadeI]

The reason they replayed scenes in the beginning of this episode is because it's the mid-season premiere, which aired like 10 months after the previous episode, not because of budget constraints. Personally I feel like they went harder in this back half in terms of animation compared to the front half.

[@viviennewestwoodruinedmylife]

That’s what happens when annoying fanboys constantly spam every single reaction channel before they even get to season 4 about the animation.

[@shockzz1234]

Yeah the covid thing Suraj talked about was in regards to the first half of season 4 not the second.

[@robertcampbell8070]

@@shockzz1234 I mean, there is one specific episode with that looks terrible in the second half, but generally I'd agree.

[@kaxewdisco3594]

@@shockzz1234 no. The first half of S4 aired from January to March 2020, so it barely missed the pandemic. It was the second half the one that struggled with it.

[@Iqnacio.]

@@viviennewestwoodruinedmylife I mean, if you know literally anything about animation then you would know that yes, S4 struggled a lot with animation and it was due to the fact that it was produced during the pandemic, heck, it was even delayed a season, premiering 3 months later than originally planned and even then to finish it on time they had to outsource a lot of inbetween animations and even entire episodes (like ep. 15). This is why a lot of elements looked pretty bad, a lot of receives especially were really poorly animated. So it's totally fair to warn everyone who watches Haikyuu that this season was made during the pandemic, regardless of the fact that in this specific point Suraj was indeed mistaken, and it had to do with the mid-season thing.

[@akhilsriharidukkipati13]

Ya'll will miss out on a lot of information if you don't pay attention :') SO basically, when Atsumu says "This position. This timing. This angle. It's perfection!" It's the same thing Kageyama says when he first does the super quick with Hinata in the first season. Atsumu takes one look at their quick this game and instantly replicates it which freaks the entire Karasuno team out. Can't wait for the rest of the episodes!!!!!

[@thiagocarvalho8630]

Well its not their fault that they didn't remember that one specific line from 4 seasons ago

[@akhilsriharidukkipati13]

@@thiagocarvalho8630 It wasn't about remembering the line. It was about recognizing the super quick Atsumu replicated during the game :))

[@xShineyxDiverx]

No no, we ain't doing this "bad animation this back half" FUCKING BULLSHIT. It's like one episode and bits of another. This is actually a damn good animated match. I would also recommend you pay attention to what you're watching.

[@techz9314]

What

[@-6ix559]

The last point in this episode is super significant because the Miya twins managed to copy Hinata and Kageyama’s minus tempo quick on their first try.

[@skyefox]

The best part of this episode is that the spikers in the audience have insight into how those playing their position in the game feel, while the setters commenting have a completely different angle of perspective based on their position. It's amazing.

[@i.t.y1140]

Of course you guys managed to not pay attention during the highlight of the episode, its almost a talent at this point.

[@jonathanassis1540]

I don't know if anyone said this but Aran is a japanenglish way of japanese speaking, his name is Alan because he is mix.

[@dirtyyouth6628]

paying attention to detail and completely waiting for the end credits is the best way to get a genuine reaction! the end of each episode kind of ends with a tiny cliffhanger, so it’s best to not all start talking right before it ends

[@edwardmillard4398]

Glad they liked the saxophone soundtrack at the end of the episode, it's a piece of music called "Miya Atsumu" and it is the blonde twins character theme from team Inarizaki . It's quite the banger. 🎵🤩

[@RifkyEkana]

man y’all need to pay MORE attention.

[@jay7tennis]

I love what Coach Donny says in his reactions about luck. It takes work to be lucky. If Hinata didn't even put himself into those places, he wouldn't even have had a chance to be lucky. You guys chalk it up to luck or maybe even a fluke (😉), but Hinata has definitely put in the work to be lucky.

[@liz-sm5ff]

i feel like sometimes you forget these characters are kids cuz it's not the first time you make a weird joke abt a 16 yr old 💀

[@Qyshawn]

Aran's name is actually Alan but in Japanese L's normally get mispronounced as R's (just not a letter they have to deal with in their language)

[@Spirit529]

NICE KILL ARAN! Nice Kill Aran! Tobe Tobe Aran! Mo Ippon!

[@mlh1367]

Okay so for correction. Episode 13 marked the end of the first half of this season. 14 and beyond is the second half that was heavily affected bc of Covid and it got delayed multiple times. The reason they recalled episode 13 was bc it had been a VERY long time between episode 13 and 14. So that’s not a shortcut. Also, it’s no where near as bad as ppl say. A couple scenes were wonky and you’ll see later. But the adaptation of the material was still amazing and the important and impactful moments are still really well done. Budget wasn’t an issue. It was time

[@its.me.toryyy6677]

You guys should definitely watch 'The black Phone'

[@siddhantgautam29]

Amazing reaction🔥👍

[@Hamza-rm6yk]

y'all are normies alright.

[@mikkosimonen]

A lot of people think that Atsumu should just feint with the number of steps if he realizes the opponent knows his tell, but it's not that simple. The number of steps is part of his routine, and you can't just change that. It would be like Kageyama serving without first spinning the ball in his hands, he'd probably mess up.

@@MangaTheatre Only really next episode. There are a few brief parts after, but it’s isn’t even a big deal.

@@MangaTheatre how could anyone have an informed opinion about the quality of something without having seen it, and how could that person also repeat it and color other peoples experiences? if you think something looks bad in the moment, fine say something, but it's absolutely idiotic to say anything about future stuff without having seen anything.

Telling the commentators to shut up while they explain stuff that you're constantly missing. And when they do hear something, they disagree with it. They say it's a floater, it floated, it's a floater. If it's either a floater with four steps, then obviously it's a spike serve otherwise.

And then the neighbors woke me up bc they were having sex and I couldn't have a bite of raw tuna. Anyways Atsumu is worse than Oikawa, which is a lot to say bc I despise Oikawa's guts
