Volleyball Coach Reacts to HAIKYUU OVA 2 + Top 5 Season 2 Moments

Hey coach remember when you made a dream team after season 1 You had: Oikawa as setter Kageyama as right side hitter Kindaichi (onion head) and Aone as middles Daichi and Asahi as outside hitters and Nishinoya as Libero (And your captain was Daichi) Would your team change now that you’ve watched season 2?

[@Ceisimonn]

honestly oikawa and iwaizumi’s friendship is probably one of my favorite pairings in the show. not only do you see their chemistry and the brotherhood between them but they’re also hilarious

[@adeleedyrssen589]

To add more insight on Sehjos 3rd years. That was the last game most of them will ever play together. They’ve been a team together for 3 years, some for even longer than that, but now they probably won’t play in a real tournament together again. I also love how emotional Oikawa was in this scene. Normally he’s kind of a jerk and doesn’t always show good leadership, but he definitely cares about them beyond just the game and the court and that’s really special. Question: now that you’ve seen and met a bunch of new characters and players in season 2, what/who would be your ideal starting line up? Has it changed from season 1? ( You can include a pinch server and back up setter too if you would like. Since both of those types of players were pivotal this season). Also those haters are incredibly ignorant. I’m here for the Haikyu reactions. I don’t play volleyball so most of your other content doesn’t interest me, but I also respect that you enjoy all aspects of volleyball, not just one show about it. Also you had the best comeback to the person who said no one wants to watch the matches again just for different commentary. That is exactly why we are here… to watch something again… with different commentary. 😂. Coach, you are the best.

You give so much valuable insight for each play, that i can finally understand the tactics, why sometimes the plays go wrong, etc. You're very perceptive and I get the sense that you register more information in a short span of time than a lot of other people. You will be absolutely fantastic as a commentator

26:38 The fact that the guy says "Ukai" without any honorifics at all (the subtitles will always show honorifics) means he's referring to someone with an equal social standing as him (aka. the younger Ukai who is of same age). He's referring to how Yamaguchi went to Coach Ukai directly after his failed pinch serving back then. Not to mention, only Kageyama and Hinata went to the old man's place. No one else in the team ever set foot in there. 31:35 Those are Seijoh's off-court players clumped together in the warm-up zone, not the guys playing on the court.

8:58 I think reusing the animation here fits really well. They obviously used it to save time and resources but I think it also expresses to the audience that he's hitting hard. We remember this animation from the previous match really well, so them using this for just a comedic scene it's great. ''Stop hitting for real Oikawa'' It's similar to that scene where Karasuno are playing with a PSP and they drop it by accident so they reuse the animation from the last point vs Aoba Johsai in Season 1 when they try to catch it for comedic effect.

[@Shirley36]

Hey Coach, just to correct something, at 26:45 when Shimada (Yamaguchi's mentor) talks about Yamaguchi going to see Ukai on his own, he's talking about the young Coach Ukai. Remember that on this very same day of the Seijoh match, during the Wakunan game earlier when Coach Ukai was tending to Daichi who was out of the game, Yamaguchi chickened out from his float serve and played it safe. Coach Ukai was especially mad at him for wasting his opportunity but Ennoshita stopped him and said that Yamaguchi already knew he fucked up by running away. After the match, Yamaguchi sought out Coach Ukai on his own to go apologize and to assure that he won't waste the next chance he gets. That's what Shimada means by saying that Yamaguchi is already being a different player after the Wakunan match (even though everything happened in the same day), because he recognized his cowardice and gained the strength to overcome it.

Volleyball never crossed my life, was never presented as an option growing up (our high school didn’t even have a team as far as I can remember) and you got me into it.

The part When coach said about you seriously watch one whole season of haikyu just with different comentary was COOOLD love it😎🤙🏻

[@ArgKnoxville86]

The BBQ scene is so well put together. First of all you get a wide shot, so you can have an idea of the space you are. And then you zoom in into each group of people and walk around the area. The way it is edited feels so real, like the camera is just turning to the side to watch somebody else, instead of just separate scenes in the same background. I love it so much because it showcases the love and passion the people behind this anime have. In a scene that carries no volleyball or no real high drama scenes, you have such good quality of production.

[@DinamitaLife]

Hey Coach, I hope you know we respect you and we appreciate you taking your time to do these reactions every week. I actually look forward to them, bc Haikyuu is one of my favourite animes, and I really like watching other people enjoy it too. Thank you for making these videos for us!

[@leavehigh5408]

To clear up a little confusion: At 31:34, those were the players on the bench, not the ones who were playing. They were just clumped up in the warm-up area calling out the free ball.

[@ziggylarkdust]

The first character is actually a third year who didn't make the starting team or the bench. Sort of like Tsukishima's brother but Aoba Johsai is a huge power house school with lots of members.

[@legalcrimes]

I love the comments from Oikawa. "talent is something YOU make bloom, instinct is something YOU polish"

[@clampies3815]

The barbecue scene is so iconic it's a fan favorites for sure. The last point of seijoh game is so intense and great, definitely the top moment for this season.

[@Icecolt993]

Big respect for your statement about the rude "fans". It's still YOUR channel and YOUR decision how often and what you're posting. Keep up your great work coach, you're a real inspiration

[@MyNameIs7]

I always say this about reaction videos. You can't please everyone, and in fact you don't need to please anyone at all. It's going to get to a point where because of comments like these, you're probably not going to enjoy reacting anymore. Just keep doing you coach!

[@edgarwen]

That last scene.... i must have watched it more than 10 times already and i still get goosebumps

[@waruuum]

Only 10? :D

[@videoextrodinare1]

Love the beginning of the vid, Donny. YOU TELL THEM HATERS! Remember you have thousands more people who support you in all your posting decisions! Seriously makes my blood boil that there are still jerks who post comments like that on such a wholesome channel.

[@timfangrad5173]

For every hater, there are 50 supporters. That's probably putting it lightly. Just ignore what a few bad apples have to say.

[@jessephillips4762]

Coach Donny, I think that you can be very proud that the vast majority of your viewer base is genuinely great! We love ALL of the content you put out, because we love you as a content creator! Personally I've learned so much about volleyball and life from you, and 99% of the comments are overwhelmingly positive and encouraging. Just know that we appreciate you and what you do on this platform. Much love Coach!

[@randomdud668]

I actually love your commentary for the olympic volleyball games. All my volleyball knowledge comes from Haikyuu and your commentary is really easy to follow and understand. Thanks for doing those commentary videos and I hope you can realize your dream of being a professional commentator! Thanks for your content as always.

[@oEllery]

One moment I really liked in season 2 is when Yahaba comes in as a pinch server for Seijoh. During that point Oikawa has to dive for the ball, and Yahaba is forced to set the ball. He messes up the set, but Mad Dog covers for him and makes the point. They both get really pumped up afterwards and celebrate with each other. It's really cool to see them celebrating together since Yahaba was the person to talk sense into Mad Dog and get him back on the court (after he was subbed out). Haikyuu is filled with all sorts of little connections like this where you'll miss it if you blink and you don't remember who every player on every roster is. But I think that's why so many people love rewatching the series. It's not my "favorite" moment but it's one worth mentioning!

[@kvothearlidenson1285]

31:35 thats the box for substitute players

[@supermelonbread]

In case you were still wondering about players clumping together @31:34 , those are the players on the bench not on the court.

[@markdatuin892]

Cant wait for you to start season 3 coach! My favorite scene in this season is when Tsukishima approached Bokuto, Kuroo and Akaashi and asked them why are they so into volleyball. Bokuto’s answer is so impactful for someone like Tsuki. Also, one of my favorite moments is when Kageyama, Hinata, Nishinoya and Tanaka knew that they will have barbecue after they play. That dance is so epic. lol

[@Le_GooseRL]

People who leave comments like that must have a warped view of what Haikyuu is about. To watch the show enough to seek out reactions and not understand that their toxic behaviour is opposite to the message Haikyuu is pushing. Fun, growth, selflessness, community, connecting through a love of the game and more. They should rewatch it again and pay attention this time. Thank you for the time and effort you put into your content, Donny. It is insightful, entertaining and I love it! The Olympics was the first volleyball tournament I got to watch live and it was amazing. You're commentary was a great, keep it up!

[@kingdomking224]

31:34 wasnt thw court, it was the warm up area

[@c4GameDev]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS COACH I ADMIRE THIS ATTITUDE OF YOURS SO MUCH. You ACTIVELY cultivate positive minded people in your channel, and I'd take a bet you do this on your real life surroundings as well. People that simply enjoying watching haikyuu or whatever with you. This may be naive from me, but I have this gut feeling in me that your fans in this channel are the most wholesome and supportive community I've seen throughout social media (comparing to other influencers). These are people who enjoy your commentary/input, the way you perceive and catch details. I believe this is the true reason people come back here over and over, they simply enjoy watching nice things with you. Keep up doing your great work, keep up trimming your audience to keep only the worthwhile fans, and let's watch another episode together.

[@bislarke95]

The thing that I can now appreciate in hindsight when rewatching Seijoh rematch is how well it establishes that Karasuno is an offensive team to their very core. From Hinata's insistence on improving the freak quick back at the camp even while his defense and passing are mediocre at best, Kageyama choosing to do a ballsy setter dump in the second to last point, the way they chose to swap out Tsukki (their best blocker) on match point in favor of bringing in a second setter to give them more attacking options, Asahi going for that absolutely wild return shot, etc etc... Karasuno's main strength is their ability to put their foot on the gas and Never. Let. Up. And making our underdog team such an absurdly offense-oriented squad is such a great decision from the author! Having the main team develop an offense that relentless creates a lot of opportunity for flashy plays to wow the audience, and seeing how much Karasuno is willing to put on the line during every single point makes it really hard not to cheer for them!

[@marnelliposadas2462]

Only today have i realised that tsuki was not present in the last play!

[@bobbyp43]

This man isn’t close to a reaction channel it’s a side hobby and people have the nerve.. lol I love the videos and can tell you love what you post and that’s what’s important coach keep it up you’ll always have my support 🙌🏼

[@2ntwins]

Coach I just wanted to say that your commentary on this has helped me enjoy olympic volleyball! It was really fun to watch despite never watching it before. Unfortunatley as you get bigger, you will draw the trolls and the haters to you, but know they are the minority!

[@likasombodeh4883]

That play is what made me love Oikawa, the determination and grit and just all out trust in Iwa to make the hit in that set combined with the desperation in his return back to the court and the slip are just sooo good

[@osmide1908]

Coach Donny saying "Yeah, Yamaguchi's my boy for season two, Hinata was my boy for season one...". Me just knowing who's gonna be the next boy for season three (no spoil), and smiling I really appreciate your work coach, thanks for the videos !

[@hopewelch9421]

16:33 I was thinking about this the other day. About how coach donny literally breathes volleyball. He’s a coach (of a team and private lessons), he has his own team that he plays on, he’s constantly practicing, he not only watches VNL and the Olympics but made videos about them, AND he spends time watching a volleyball anime and makes videos about THAT!! Plus who knows what else related to volleyball! Like, dang! To have that kind of passion for one thing is really awesome! It’s really cool to see, so thanks for sharing, Coach! :)

[@Alwayz114]

I love the mindset of some of the commenters that *you* have to be "fair" with *your* channel, as if we deserve, or are entitled to, any part of it. Make whatever videos you want, Coach. I don't watch a ton of the content outside Haikyu, some matches/practice games, and some of the Olympic commentaries (fantastic for background noise during work), but at the end of the day this is 100% yours and your videos are best when you wanna do them

[@kelog5446]

When Iwaizumi says your resolve is too weak...and then proceeds to obliterate the iron wall. That moment stood out

[@cliftonfestusmalvea9777]

I love how coach donny has started understanding Oikawa. I am sorry coach if I ever was toxic in my comments. Though I always tried to be humble. The Channel is yours and I enjoy all the content be it Haikyuu or other Videos.

[@LixienXIII]

I just love how that last set to Hinata comes not from a perfect dig or something but from Suga receiving a ball to the head. Kageyama and Hinata are like ''oh no, anyways YOKOSEEEEEEEEEE''

[@000l7]

Hey Coach! How about a new starting lineup for each team that has been in these two seasons? A new initial 6. It would be cool to do this every season.

[@kok889]

a few things to clarify, 1. for the scene with yamaguchis flash back with his mentor Shimada, the part about Going to Ukais is referring to going to see Coach Ukai after the match with Wakunan where he chickened out and served a non-jumping serve. Yamaguchi goes to apologize for wasting the opportunity as the pinch server, even though he understood what his role was from the summer camp when Asahi did the same thing. 2. Last scene where you said its unrealistic for people to clump together on a free ball, that was just the players in the warmup area, not the players on court

[@nilesville]

Coach Donny: **Talking about Yamaguchi** He's my boy in Season 2. Hinata's my boy in Season 1. Me: Can the fanbase predict who will be Coach's boy in Season 3?

[@waruuum]

The obnoxious Karasuno fan?

[@Kuroitheblack]

I'd say Tsukki, but maybe he'll have a soft spot for Ushijima

[@aetherainmarveilleux4239]

Tsukishima for sure

[@iwantasonlikeizuku8912]

of course, the mvp

[@yuugaouzuki18]

or it could be the guess block monster.

[@shilimousseau5215]

It’s amazing that, with Yamaguchi’s first serve of his serving run, it actually takes 8 seconds of nothing but silence before he takes his approach to make the serve 👏🏼👏🏼. I love the small details

[@Gra.y]

Man i can't wait for him to try and make a best moments for season 3. Cause if someone asked me to list down a top 5 I'd literally have an aneurysm. There's just way too many good moments. I hope you have fun watching it Coach.

[@Atoggod]

At 31:36 those are the bench players in their box off-court. That’s why they’re clustered together.

[@seekittycat]

Honestly the emotional investment really scared me from team sports for a long time, especially since I was around people who didn't understand (family doesn't display emotion and thinks it's dumb). It was worth it though and I'm glad this anime showed how this experience isn't just about value and how even though it's painful it's important and helps you grow as a person.

[@jocelynchee8232]

just wanted to say that i enjoyed alot on those Olympic games that you commented on, as those games when i watch im not quite understood especially when they called for challenge scene and etc, and thanks for all the explanation, i appreciate a lot, i understood right now hahahaha😂 looking forward for the next 😏 i been crying although is just a 6mins+ scene, seeing Oikawa frustration makes me even sad more 😭 My top favourite scene in season 2 is when Yamaguchi told Tsukishima that: what do we need other than pride! that scene makes me hype and realize Yamaguchi started to change alot 🥰🥰🥰

[@bonbon3901]

Coach: Hinata's my boy for season 1. Yamaguchi's my boy for season 2. I may have an idea who would be coach's boy for season 3 😎 Thank you so much for doing your best for us Coach! We'll always appreciate you. So hyped for season 3!!!!

[@marriane4510]

yes 😎

[@drakephysecron6775]

There is only one my boy for everyone in season 3!!!

[@japkorox91]

The one and only mvp.
