Noobiemochi

I NEEEEED THE EPPP

I’m Tired

I think haikyuu takes longer to be edited and ready cause it’s two eps in one

peachy af

That's kind of always the trend. I wonder if its done on purpose since hq is their most popular show on patreon

lola

everything but Haikyuu has been dropping 💀

Mariacake

I’m heading out to eat dinner. I’m pretty sure it’s when the episode will drop 🥹 it usually drops when I’m not on standby 🤣

Christine

I’m waiting for today’s drop like how Hinata waits for a toss from Kags in that one episode 🥹😂

Thats paradox

Good Luck! :) tell me how it went when its over

Devanshi

Brittany (Ultraanimegirl4)

Love how every Tuesday and Thursday at a certain point in the day we all start congregating here like cats in front of an automatic feeder awaiting our next meal like we haven't eaten in days 😆

Brittany (Ultraanimegirl4)

Eagerly anticipating these next two episodes 🙌🏐 I'm also excited for Dark 😁 either would be great to watch when I have my dinner shortly ☺️

~Mercedeez Lee~

We can always hope, I mean they’ve made slight changes for other anime before when fans request more episodes ( especially for Naruto & AOT ). Anyway it’s just 1 extra episode, a finale episode at that too

Riley

I’ve got a match in 4 hours and NEED my motivation

Devanshi

MissJodles

I’m so hyped that we’re finally at the end of Season 2, this is the stuff we’ve all been waiting for! I know S2 and 3 were what I’ve been waiting for you guys to react to the most, and I’m not disappointed at all. We’ve finally gotten to the most major hype! "Juvie" and "Evil trumpet" had me dying 😭 And I’m loving how nervous and excited you guys are with the matches, seeing you all try and predict what’s happening brings me so much joy

MissJodles

Say it louder for the Geks in the back!

Since this is another 25 episodes season, should do 2 episodes for Tuesday and 3 for Thursday to finish off the season this week. Then that’s season 2 all done with and on to season 3 next week

Ugh same. I’m trying to get back into shape but it’s pretty hard with my job right now lol

Tomi Brewster

next couple of weeks of episodes gonna be the best by far

GreetswithJudgement

I have a long time ago when I was doing sports. I used to be fairly athletic but gave that up when I went to college and worked two jobs. Gave my life away 😂

A_Daddy Daichi

Have you been to or watched an actual volleyball game before?? Will have you so jealous how people can be so athletic

idk

The way they be diving for those recieves make me realise I’ll break all my bones and pull every muscle if I even attempt ts😭😭

Frida BØ

I’m so excited for the next couple of episodes 😭

Patriicia

I cant wait for the uploads this week!!!!

bebe

same i have no athleticism in my body lmaoooo even though haikyu makes want to go do some active sports after watching it

GreetswithJudgement

I binged it and honestly if I hadn’t I wouldn’t have liked it as much. But that goes for about everything being watched right now on this channel!

sil

i will never get bored of kageyama x oikawa match ups im sorry like its so tom brady x patrick mahomes coded!!! the genius who does it so easily and the veteran who has to train and study and watch film to be as good as he is???? CHEF KISSSS they are one rivalry i will always root for to watch :')

On season 4 already and if there is one thing I learned from this show as a once Haikyuu hater is that I have no athletic bone in my body and I’m kinda mad about it.

:( teasing us on peak season 2 drops. Don't want to know how sadistic season 3 drops are going to be..... lol 12pm drops enjoy....tears

Ale

How are you guys doing the last 5 episodes? Will be 2 and 3? Or will you do S2E25 and S3E1 together?? Either way, please remember there is a post credit scene AND and extra scene after E25 it's on YouTube, I've seen people sharing it down below!!

Sasha

Karasuno's matches against Date Tech and Aoba Johsai have been the most hype. I can't wait to be glazing Oikawa like crazy.

Sasha

I'd rather play with Mikasa balls than Wilson balls😏

Aiza

I recommend you to watch season 3 at once for better experience

Rosa

Legends say Sukuna, the King of Curses, once tried to receive that serve from Oikawa and lost all his fingers in the process.

Bingsu

me who finished manga (after s4) still haven't watched that part. Thank you for telling it! :>>>

Hector

Must do

botanbutton

She's so cute 🥺

botanbutton

"EVIL TRUMPET MUSIC" "EVIL JAZZ" 😂😂😂 That track is called "Kawashiya" or "Destroyer" on Spotify btw (composer: Asami Tachibana). Some say pencil sketches, I say it's more like calligraphy brushes. Like someone took a sumi or calligraphy brush and roughly did the outlining. Such a great way to demonstrate the ferocity of the spike. Haikyuu is definitely good at artistically showing an action to demonstrate how we should "feel" it.

botanbutton

Nah, I just rewatched that and I'M DYING 😂😂😂 Cuz what you mean???! Too funnyyy

botanbutton

GYATT DAMN, 70 MILES PER HOUR!?

lola

I can’t believe we’re almost at the finish line with this season… 😭

lola

“Oikawa, nice kill”

corLeonis

I cant remember how many times I've watched Haikyuu and still gets nervous every game.

bebe

umm don’t hype until it comes?

chloe

the legendary serve that decapitated muzan

jazmyn

mad dog is so scary and THE TRUMPETS AT THE END OF THE EPISODE. chefs kiss.

Hem-ehem

This 👆 important! You guys can watch this paired with ep 25. Ep 25 + This 👆 (6+ min) + Ova 2 (22+ min)

Brig Andrus

😂

Brig Andrus

🤣🤣

Ayn Orbuda

Also, it’s better to watch 5 episodes (+bonus scene) all together for next week. A lot of viewers recommended this to Carlie and Ange,too. It’ll be a good pacing especially for you guys.

Ayn Orbuda

This!!! The pacing is not quite interesting if they follow the usual no. of episodes.

Ayn Orbuda

Guys, a lot of us commented but just want to remind you again that you need to watch the bonus scene for ep. 25 :) just search it in youtube

bondbond53

https://x.com/noona_JK_/status/1808011284652138553

bondbond53

Guys I'm saying this beforehand but after season 2 YOU MUST watch this clip. These are extra canon scenes in the manga that episode 25 didn't have the run time to animate and they later animated it in a season 2 recap movie that they released. Don't click on the link before episode 25 but it's a must watch really!!!!!!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lao54_hFaA0

Mad Dog said: 'Domain Expansion: Evil Jazz'

Moon

In honour of reaching season 2 episode 20, when Oikawa first unleashes his upgraded monster serve, here's a fun thing that most people miss when reacting to his serve: Oikawa's serve touches the floor before he even lands from making the jump, which apparently, is a crazy feat to achieve. Someone in the fandom even calculated the speed at which the ball was moving using frame by frame analysis, and they came to the answer that Oikawa's crazy serve in episode 20 might be about 114km/hr (70.9miles/hr). And I was just in awe because that's so close to some of the best volleyball players in the world rn (E.g. Yuji Nishida from Japan's national team, whose peak speed for serving was calculated at 128km/hr or 79.5miles/hr). AND, Oikawa is 17-18 years old in this episode, whereas Yuji Nishida is currently 24. My mind is always blown how good Oikawa and some of the players in Haikyuu are portrayed Also...a lot of people like to call what happened at the end of episode 20 "the✨pencil sketches✨are coming out now". Typically, that style is used whenever there's something really intense going on on screen, like in Demon Slayer season 2 episode 17, when Tanjirou and the gang cut off Daki and Gyutarou's heads (that was also amazingly pencil sketchy)

Ayaulym🇰🇿

One thing I have to say this show NEVER gets too repetitive. Each team is so different with different tactics. and the same applies to the plot. Each season is about a different thing with new obstacles

Ayaulym🇰🇿

I like how geks pointed out the difficulties of voleyball. When we start haikyuu, most of us think that voleyball is not that hard or a nuanced sport. But watching this show you just get insight how much effort and tactic goes into this. It's so easy to fuck up here, from too low toss to not receiving correctly. Every point counts and sometimes players have to fight nail and tooth for it

Ayaulym🇰🇿

Dude season 3 is gonna be PEAK OF THE PEAK.

Patriicia

I love how all of them were nervous about this match

Jenny D

Great reactions and predictions! Oikawas new serve was scary and so was Mad Dogs spike. I love how Daichi is all calm and collected on the outside during Oikawa's serve and then on the inside he's like, "What the hell wad that?" I'm so excited for the next episode reaction. Can't belive season 2 is almost done!

Patriicia

gimme those snacks

Moon

No words can describe how much I love Iwaizumi JBWHJBJHB He is literally my favourite on the Aoba Johsai team, not just because he's amazingly cool, but also because he keeps Oikawa in line with the other third years on the team by insulting him, smacking him and teasing him the way a best friend would. Oh but Koganegawa (Date Tech's new first year setter) is so cute. The corners of his mouth are always curled up into a tiny smile HAHA Btw, just to answer all your questions about why Karasuno does certain things to counter the attacks from Aoba Johsai (like Hinata following Suga's advice to wait before jumping to block Aoba Johsai's quick, etc.): These are things that they've already learned about Aoba Johsai in their previous match in the Interhigh. Suga noticed that the timing of Aoba Johsai's quicks is slower than Karasuno's, so he told Hinata to wait a bit before jumping to block back then (season 1 episode 22-23 iirc). So Hinata just repeated that in this match, because he remembered the advice! Same goes for what Tanaka did, where he took note of how the people who don't do jump serves on Aoba Johsai's team will often aim at a tricky spot (where the setter, who has rotated onto the back line, will run up to the net when the whistle is blow for a serve, which makes it difficult to receive the ball at the point where the setter runs up and blocks his teammate's sight or reaction time to receive) and adjusted accordingly so he doesn't drop the ball like they did in the Interhigh.

I want to see them watch more but I also don't, S2 is almost over, it does seem so fast but the pacing is honestly great. I don't want it to be over but I want them to see all of it.

Joie Dianzon 🇵🇭

I got my heart broken but this really made my day. I cannot wait for the reactions to the next episodes. 😊

Someone give the link 🤣

Now they have seen Oikawa's crazy serve Brig should see that edit of Oikawa destroying Muzan with it

Ngl I rewatched the last five episodes a while ago and nearly threw up from nervousness. It’s crazy cuz I’ve watched this match several times now. 😭

🚨 WARNING ‼️ For the next couple of batches, please keep the volume of your devices low because the Geks can prove to be extremely injurious to headphone users. You have been warned. 😂💀

LOUDERRRRRRRR

jailynn custodia!!

no cause cannon physically recoiling every time they show flashbacks from when karasuno first lost to aoba johsai is SO REAL.... like we aren't the ones who even played yet we are STILL all collectively traumatized by that game 😭😭

Alex

Bit of background on Takeda sensei. The subject he teaches at Karasuno is contemporary Japanese literature... which is why he delivers so many poetic metaphors when he talks to the team.

vally

They definitely have to watch the bonus scene

Santos Luna Ramirez

More Haikyuuuu 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Cinnamon Girl

Iwaizumi is so cool fr

ginabella

I hope they watch the last 5 episodes next week (plus the bonus scene!!). I think it would be weird to watch S2E25 and S3E1 in one video...

jailynn custodia!!

IM SEATED

Same! Tried volleyball once, and I can assure you my receiving skill is worst than Hinata 💀

He's funny, smart and with a dash of pettiness. Love that character!

A_Daddy Daichi

There’s no reason for me to be nervous like I literally just watched this a few weeks ago 😂

Hem-ehem

LMAO

Clover

fun fact!! animator boya liang took 4 days to complete mad dog’s spike scene in ep 20 and she took inspiration for this from kageyama’s spike/jump serve scene in s1e2 the similarities between the two scenes and the quality are 🤌🏼 i just love that “harsh” style she decided to carry over from furudate’s style in the manga and also her fav chara is noya so yes GOATED thank you queen 💅🏼

A_Daddy Daichi

No I love it lmao

tskjn

Iwaizumi the man! I cackled at evil jazz lmao i also didnt know what it's called so evil jazz fits 🤣 Regarding oikawa's set, it was supposed to be for kindaichi, but mad dog pushed him aside.

Clover

gosh the 4 eps next week gna be back to back peak and geks gna make it even better with their reactions, i might just cry a river and pass away guys 💀 get ready my funeral for me, my heart cant handle this excitement anymore 😭

anji banji

I giggle every time Cannon says he’s nervous like he’s watching a real life game.

bro why is Oikawa so perfectttttt..

hahaha i was thinking the same

Jessica

The Karasuno vs Seijoh rematch is one of my favorite matches ever. Can't wait for next week ahhh.

Kna

the nerves even when I know what's going to happen

Adam Parts

These episodes was what I was thinking of when you first picked up Haikyuu. Now go back and watch your own reactions to the first 3 episodes. I'm curious if you guys think the episodes were bad or if you actually sense the mad hater vibes you gave off then. Still enjoying the ride, looking forward to the future reactions

maria

it for real is 😭

Vol

we're finally here!!!!!

alexis ♡︎

i think abt iwa’s scene in ep 19.. too much, what a fkn man. i love yachi so much, the scene with her and gucci made me cry laugh 😭 such a good reaction, the wait for peak week is gonna be absolutely TREACHEROUS

Ron Jackson Jr

sorry but that was cool when Mad Dog pushed him hahaha he's him alright!

peachy af

i love that dudes laugh LMAO

peachy af

nooo dont disrespect my king yamaguchi loool

Northyee

next week can NOT come any sooner 🙏

peachy af

The idea of "evil jazz" is absolutely KILLING me

idk

Also ushijima is a third year btw guys. Oikawa lost to him each time in total since the beginning of high school, so unfortunately no rematch theory

idk

Something cool I love about oikawas crazy serve is that the ball went over so fast by the time it hit the floor oikawa was still in the air. Like goddamn. If you pause it at the scene the ball hits the floor, oikawa is still mid air before he landing. Aint nobody receiving that😭😭😭

jessiefungirl

nah, it's the best part

idk

I had the fattest crush on mad dog back when I was younger LOL

idk

“WHERES HE BEEN, IN JUVIE?” SENT ME OMGGG LMFSOOOO

Ale

Can't believe Cannon was able to pass me his nervousness, even tho I already know how this end 😅 Can't wait for the next update day!!!

ShadowCat

The nervousness and excitement y'all feel for the matches is what I'm here for. Even rewatching it I still get hyped watching some of these plays. And these are the reasons why we were pushing hard for Gek to watch Haikyuu. I seriously get so excited when I see a Haikyuu video post 😁

emmy

love this match, one of my favorites in the whole show! i think you guys are definitely going to enjoy watching the next episodes, it just gets better. can't wait for tuesday :)

Feel like trying to count the episodes is a downhill battle, try not to pay attention to that as much and you'll have a better viewing.

I need to hear everyone's top 3 characters at the end of each season again! Just like you did at the end of season 1!

it's all a cycle

Luna Meow

Gek's locked in, and I'm just going to sit back and enjoy the stress and anxiety going on over a volleyball anime. Why do I enjoy reliving past trauma ? GOT and this..

Nash

Mad dog pushing Kindaichi out of the way to spike sends me every time lmao

greyxwaren

him picking to receive first AND managing to stop oikawa's serve and get the first point is such a power move! my goat is ballsy af

Tina L

He said so earnestly too. Like it made 100% sense and was the perfect response to Oikawa's height 😆

bateman bookworm

Cannon is so me when i first watched haikyuu all I wanted to do was hop on the court so I joined my hs volleyball team! Humbled real quick tho 😭 I thought I was gonna cook like tanaka 💀💀 More like yamaguchi

~Mercedeez Lee~

My favourite match of the season, gosh the guys aren’t ready

jessiefungirl

have me second guessing myself

jessiefungirl

i want to disagree but i have nothing to say... i'm afraid you're onto something

Brittany (Ultraanimegirl4)

WHERES HE BEEN, IN JUVIE?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

jessiefungirl

y'all trying to guess the episodes 😂 i remember those days

maria

just finished watching and i’m back to fiening again. need the next batch like nowww

Tina L

I feel crazy. No way did I just watch 50+ mins already. It totally felt like 20 max!

bateman bookworm

him and noya are so underrated! People underestimate how much of a difference having good receivers is, there is no kageyama and hinata if the ball isn’t in the air and accurate at that

jessiefungirl

evil jazz? the princess and the frog.

Joydan Bri’an

also mad dog has always been fine to me and i’m not afraid to say it !!!!

Secretly

Ushijima is the same year as Oikawa, and that's why Oikawa's never been able to make it to nationals since Junior High. Every year Ushijima beat him.

Date Tech is a perfect example of what a team without 3rd years look like. Even if there's more potential, those 3 years of experience make your basics a lot better, and that's really important.
