All the other “haikyuu in real life” videos are just clips of super fast quicks or sick nasty dive saves but THIS video in my opinion is what the phrase “in real life” really means when applied to haikyuu. You also explained it perfectly, the show tells a story about a kid who loves and wants to play this sport despite the fact that he’s considered “too short”, and he excels at it anyway, and it teaches us all to never count the odd ones out. Great video as usual man, I’m gonna go ask my friends if they want to practice some cool combos :)

[@diddlybop]

what Haikyuu does really well that other sports animes do not (like Kuroko’s basketball or bluelock) is embelish and dramatize the sport to make it exciting, but keep it grounded in reality. No one has fantastical powers that they are using to win - they are just practicing and evolving. It is obvious as a viewer even if you don’t know anything about volleyball that the things that you see in the show could happen in reality - and that’s how I went from someone who never cared about volleyball to watching IRL volleyball moves and tutorials, I wanted to see haikyuu IRL. Thanks for making this it was perfect!

[@adriandariuspure9223]

@@PoGuy12 Well, for getting to the ball quicker try learning to split step, it's when you take a very quick step right as the ball gets hit so your legs don't freeze, as for hitting more off sets, I guess, it's just practice, that's all it is to it, technique is really import, but it can only shine through if you put in a lot of practice, hope this helps

Another great story time video! Cool to see that you enjoy Haikyuu so much ^^ I used to play a lot in my early years at uni. After repeated shoulder injuries I stopped playing, due to a mix of an unstable joint and plain fear of hurting myself again. But this show is just so full of energy and love for the sport that it gave me the drive to work on myself, build muscle and at least try to play again someday. Not at a high level or anything, but just for fun. Because volleyball is worth it.

[@NokkunVolleyball]

In highschool the team I was on was pretty standard and I only learned the basics. Once I went to Japan I entered a whole new world of volleyball. Met guys a foot shorter who could jump as high as me and crush the ball. Guys who were lightning fast and seemed to pick up any spike I hit towards them. It caused me to fine-tune what I liked and (more importantly) try out new things. Don't get stuck in a volleyball bubble. Watch new things, play with new people, and you will always improve your game.

[@KeptnLuffy]

I was never interested in volleyball because of how I could barely reach the top of the net when we had volleyball in PE and I'm only 5'1. I love sports but I just gave up on even trying out volleyball from the very beginning because I thought there's no way I could play volleyball properly with my height. And then came Haikyuu. I thought "It's just about volleyball and this sport just isn't for me". But then I learned that Hinata was only a bit taller and he can spike just fine. I thought "Well, it's an anime so it's probably exaggerated" but googled the highest vertical jump anyway and turns out it's very well possible to jump that high. And I never knew volleyball was so much fun before I watched Haikyuu. Now I also follow real life volleyball matches. One of my favorite quotes from Haikyuu is *"I am built upon the small things I do every day."* I got really lazy during the pandemic but I have started to workout daily recently (especiall working to jump higher). I don't know if I can jump like Hinata one day but I am built upon the small things I do every day so it feels good either way to just keep going. "He who would climb a ladder must begin at the bottom". If you aspire something, don't be afraid to do it. Just start doing it, day by day, step by step and you'll surely be better than you were yesterday. I love Haikyuu because aside from volleyball it shows so many important aspects about life and growing up, especially if you're all caught up to the manga (it's not just about volleyball at all). Haikyuu reminded me of a lot of important mindsets in life and taught me many new ones. I wished I had come across this story when I was still in school. It's truly worth a read for anyone. Please read/watch Haikyuu!!

Our 1st year men's team at The Master's University took a picture in the same pose as the Haikyuu team picture. We had a few undersized players who were very strong physically & determined to dominate their much bigger competition. The season didn't go as planned, but as a coach it was exciting to watch those young men come together & put forth some incredible effort, play some amazing games & create moments I won't ever forget. But their passion for Haikyuu will definitely be something that will forever be linked with that great group of young men. I'm always exploring ways as a coach to teach players how to take their game to the next level & play with supreme confidence. I'm always mesmerized by teams that include a lot of movement offensively with their attack. Absolutely love trying to incorporate the international game into the sport here in the states. Love the limitless creativity you can explore as a coach & as a player. Great variety of volleyball content guys!!!

[@trackhoodie1741]

Great video and selection of comparative clips between the show and your HS match! Regarding the growth of volleyball, In Japan specifically. I couldn't find an article that brokedown the sudden growth of Japanese volleyball crediting Haikyuu as one its contributors. During the 2010's, when the show first appeared, there was massive growth of kids signing up for volleyball and the number of team members in a single team were outstanding. An amazing turnaround since it was just a year or two prior to the show, that school teams were even struggling to get enough sign ups.

This is a super interesting storytime comparing your real life experience with a Japanese high school team & haikyuu and insight on different countries styles of play. I'd also really like to just give props to Furudate. I really don't think people understand how amazing he told the story of Haikyuu and in doing so you really can see how much he loves the sport. I have always said Haikyuu is quite possibly the worst sports anime to start off on to get into the genre of sports anime because it truly lies on a complete different tier from other sports animes. It's not just that volleyball is a fast pace sport that the anime doesn't truly seem exaggerated. Lots of sports rely on quick instant reflexes but their anime counterparts take at least some unrealistic approaches. But Furudate made a conscious decision to write a story depicting this sport he loves so much in the most ideal realistic way possible. And it's tempered with great characters & personalities and not driven by forced over dramatics.

[@GustavoSilva-ny8jc]

The editing was INSANE 👏👏, congradution guys. The reason i got interested in Volleyball and eventually found this channel was because of Haikyuu (even beach volleyball was because of haikyuu hahaha). I started watching the show 4 years ago and since then i'm OBSESSED about a sport that i used to see as super boring. And i'm still hoping to play one day. Because is like you said, is Volleyball but it could be any other sport, the core of the story is the conflict and the growth, passion, and bond between the characters. And Volleyball have this weird, symbolically beautiful, and rare way of connecting people by the structure of the sport; the players and plays are connected like the series loves to say.

i actually learnt playing volleyball at age 19 , and after 3 weeks of playing 6 sets everyday, I finally learnt to spike with a good sense of direction (not perfect), this anime has not only taught me how to play, but be hooked with the sport too, and everyday, is fun cuz of it.
