Tanaka-san is so cool, so why isn't he popular? =Haikyuu!!= Karasuno Drama CD (ENG SUBS)

FINALLY, I finished it.. after months and months of finding a way to translate this. (and procrastinating)
Some phrases are still in question so feel free to correct them and I'll reupload it.
Also, i will the Tanaka siblings fought over somethng XD

[@mochijem]

his ego would be so high-

[@yuciehayashi266]

Tanaka's cool because: He's willing to hold onto the key and let Kage and Hinata to practice early in the morning He's able to be close to any guys very fast He never lets mistakes let him down He really respects his seniors And for those reading the manga: He's staying true to his love even though another cute girl confessed to him

[@nes9869]

That made me love Tanaka because the girl who confessed to him is the girl whom he saved from bullying and introduced her into volleyball. He is really manly even when he was little

[@ianntmy]

Can you tell me why chapter that is?

[@fenglun8449]

@@ianntmy if you still need the chapter, its chapter 246.

[@lillajoba6710]

I loved his arc so much! It was clearly mentioned that if Shimizu genuinely asked him to stop then he'd respect that, but also he saved a girl from bullies and then turned her down because even if he has no chance with Kiyoko, he doesn't want to play around with Kanoka's feelings if he's still attracted to her. He literally has no ulterior motives about helping girls out, he just thinks that's what people should do (which he's right about but not everyone thinks that way) I love him.

@@funstuffwithjordanuniverse5119 basically out of context it sounded like he mistreated Hinata as a trashcan.

its because he only let him have the cap to lick and ate the whole ice-cream himself

[@jennybernardo6743]

Tanaka is the best senpai imo. He could stop anyone from killing each other (hinata and kageyama specifically) and he could hype everyone up so they could be at their best. He also has the strongest mentality. He is the perfect balance of "don't even think about breathing in my presence" and "i will support you cause i believe in you". Not to mention, he is an upcoming ace and he has one of the most powerful attacks among the other teams.

[@Vri3530]

I like how participative Tsukishima was, specially trying to oppose every freaking point that was made. 3:00 yes Kageyama! Now that's something I'd like to see. Thank you so much for the translation!!

[@imelgraceflordeliz5292]

[@inspiritestpan]

idk but i love tanaka just the way he is . i love how he's so manly and flirty but only to gain some love from kiyoko . he's so kind and dependable in every way . tanaka is just perfect husband material . he's not that bad looking . he has this sharp feature on his face , that i can look at it all day long . bald is sexy in my opinion and it suits him so much . and i love his good personality n his golden heart snatch me . i love him so much . i will die if such man exist in this world . tysm for this . im falling more and more for ryuu . love him so much !! dont forgets he's the upcoming ace

[@SamEulde]

I did my best . . . . . . . . . . . . . jk I understand a few japanese phrases. I put those in and sometimes, I listen to the words closely and have 2 to 3 online translator to see if something fits the situation and story or whichever makes sense If that's not enough, I look at the other translations that is in a different language and do the same process as the paragraph above

[@hi-he7lh]

In this essay, I will state my opinion due to the manga. SPOILERS!!! | | | | | | | | | So looking back to this, I am not sure if the studio already knew that Kiyoko and Tanaka will end up getting married but I like to think that in this drama cd, Kiyoko was just too shy to admit that she already thinks that Tanaka is cool. My girl has priorities. She has college to worry about and she wants to do everything so the team would flourish even after she and the other third years are gone. I think Tanaka respects and admires that but that does not stop him from making advances. (Insert the scene from Director Ennoshita drama cd here) Also I think, she is trying to refrain herself since she will be gone to college and with her gone, Tanaka might get too sad without her IF they got together before her graduation. I just wanna say how I am glad Tanaka is the one that get to marry Kiyoko. I would not have want it to be anyone else. PS!!! i also would not worry about Noya and Tanaka fighting about this cuz those two have been bffs through thick and thin. If either of them had Kiyoko, the other would be happy and proud, manly tears and all.

[@benl.4577]

I'd like to think noya was the best man and he was crying manly tears on his best man speech

[@jennyluut.4916]

⬅ My icon is of Tanaka, I gotta back him up. Tanaka just got a lot less cooler after that, but I still love him a lot. *HOW DO I FIGHT FOR MY MANS?!* Tanaka is a natural hype man because he believes in his teammates~! He also is a dependable teammate himself. He's really skilled and a strong spiker! -He's really hot, if he just stood still from time to time.- HE'S SO CUTE. HIS FACE IS ALWAYS BRIGHT WHEN HE'S WITH HIS FRIENDS. Tsukishima is a nerve though, even if he has a lot of valid points. I don't blame Tanaka. Like Tanaka has 2 modes: extra scary or super freaking adorable. He's pretty passive with his friends and well forgiving (sometimes). He couldn't be afraid of anyone else but the people he respects like his own senpai and sister and probably parents. A REAL MAN. *Filial piety like a boss* but I mean, who in this anime doesn't have that, or like WHO IN JAPAN--- _W H E R E IN ASIA??!?_ *This is off topic but Shiota Kouhei is so manly, and is the perfect Tanaka.* He's pretty childish but he's so lovable. His soft fuzzy bee head is blessing. HIS HAIRCUT IS COOL. I swear I don't have a thing for buzzcut boys but somehow-- He's intimidating but full of sweetness and soft stuffs. HE'S SO SENSITIVE AND SQUISHY, LIKE EXAMPLE A--- JUST WATCH HIM REACT TO EVERYONE. He really is loud. He's an upperclassman. _Don't forget how he saved KageHina's asses like a true senpai._ THERE'S SO MUCH TO SAY. He's funny as hell. Enough said. ps. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS, SAMMY.

[@corvus-bitter]

If I could highlight a part of the video it would be from 0:00 to 12:06. Jk (no, not at all). I actually love how they all started badmouthing him just to finally accept that he does have good traits and is a good guy (Him being fashionable caught me off guard, seriously). Noya literally brought Saeko (who is, for the record, #ActualOlderSister, recognized by me, an older sister). I also will never get over the fact that Ennoshita has the strenght enough to hold Tanaka quiet (Captain power, I guess). Hinata and Kageyama are pure souls and must be protected. Tsukishima you beautiful piece of salt, recognize your senpai's manliness Noya starting with the "MY BRO IS THE MANLIEST MAN TO EVER MAN" (Also Asahi "knows this pattern"? I need context). AND THE STORY OF THAT NIGHTMARE. No but seriously, Ryuu is 100% husband material. . . . . . . . . (I will imagine Yamaguchi's quietly sitting, trying to hold the laugh, sINCE HE DIDN'T APPEARED AT ALL)
