Oikawa is loosely based on Alexander the Great that's why we saw the image of him as a Greek military General. They're both great commander and tactician, they share the same birthday, and they're both called "the great" king.

fun little fact! oikawa decided to call mad dog that because the combination of both his last and first name (KYOUtani KENtaro) aka kyouken, mean mad dog in japanese, which i think is a fun little detail. i also really love how you guys love oikawa (and iwaizumi) so much, aoba johsai is genuinely my favorite team in the series and they really deserve the love, the characters on it are incredibly compelling and so very special, but honestly, so is every single character on this show. can't wait for the next batch of episodes!!! you'll love them :)

When Hinata was caught by the truck riding his bike over the hill to school, it was so traumatic. Accepting his death was hard, but all the other characters have grown so much! :D

You already being scared for monster is funny lol, it is not that dark of a show. There is a lot of beauty in it as well. You should watch pluto after frieren, it's by the same author as monster thus you will be more prepared for it

Unfortunately, I always skip a month, which means I probably wouldn't get a badge. 😢But the last time was a while ago. The last skip was March 2024, I'm too much into Frieren, Haikyuu and Arcane right now. 😅 And I want to see the shows after that too, be it Severance, Invincible, Monster. 🤔

Yeah I watched the first like 10 episodes but it didn't really capture me. I did notice how much the girls enjoyed it though esp Lola with her volleyball bkgd. Ah well. I think I'll tune back in and watch Monster after Haikyuu. And ofc Severance after Arcane. That once per week slot and Frieren for the last few months has been keeping me going. Can't believe it's been 4+ years following L+M! Patreon needs sub badges like Twitch.

Sad, that you stopped watching. I have a feeling Haikyuu will probably become one of their favorite shows. Their wishes, how the characters develop, who plays against whom, who should win. I hope so much for them that the second Haikyuu movie is 4 hours long and adapts the last two major story arcs. They will love the ending for Haikyuu. At the same time, I also want the last big story arc to be stretched from 33 chapters to 24 episodes with a 5 season run because I want to see so much more of it. The final game was so fast and so beautiful. 😢

I stopped watching this show alongside L+M because it wasn't really my thing but watched the start of this reaction because I had a feeling you'd comment on Arcane and lo and behold xD
So excited for the next episode drop. Sorry for breaking in, Haikyuu fans. Have fun!

Kuroo as coach for the Japanese national team? I can see that. Do you have any ideas for possible professional careers for the others too? Suga, Tsukki, Hinata, Kageyama, Oikawa? 🤔

To answer your main question at the end (about which teams have to face eachother first), this episode shows the bracket. Shiratorizawa is on the left side while Karasuno and Aoba Jousai are on the right side. So Karasuno and Oikawa would have to face eachother (if they get that far) before the winner could go against Shiratorizawa (if they get that far).

And so their struggle with not accepting that Oikawa isn't the main character continues

This show would never brutally murder someone in the middle of a road. Nope never…

I don't know if it was mentioned but Asahi actually has Reiner's VA. So there's your other gentle giant with his actual voice.

Never trust an anime. I have been burned by more than a few. Some seem to be just wholesome and cute then someone gets sick and dies, gets killed by a truck, or seriously injured. Keep your guard up at all times.

I adore this episode sm (Tsukki is my favorite character lol) seeing him putting his pride aside and asking for advice. Also Kei is Tsukki's first name! Tsukishima(Last Name) Kei(First Name)

Monster is a darker show, but it's not all bad. It also has wholesome characters and moments. The best way to describe it in one concept is 'human.' That's the issue—human beings are complicated. They're more than just light and dark. Humanity is capable of committing the worst atrocities, but they are also capable of performing the kindest and most selfless acts of good. Perhaps a good comparison would be Vinland Saga. Both stories reflect the human condition and our capacity for both destruction and love.

In Haikyuu, no character will ever die. That would be cruel... Let's not talk about it :D
