.Haikyu. 4x19-20

The secret weapon is revealed....

Comments

Now that I finished my exams I can finally watch this!!! I know I'm late, but I will comment like this video was released today hahahah I didn't like Atsumu at first, but as I kept rewatching the show, I loved him more and more. And also, it happens something later when the match is finished that it's a statement that goes even further than the story here in high school. It set a new tone for me, and that was the moment I knew Haikyu wasn't just a silly high school anime about volleyball, but a much bigger thing than I thought, if that makes sense

Lucía

IM A KITA STAN

selena

Kageyama the MVP of this game

Stanley Labissiere

I know that Carter will love Kita, cause he loved Daichi at first 😏 #Leader

Ayn Orbuda

I love Kita and Aran. Their friendship is so wholesome. <3

Wishing everyone a great year ahead! 🎇2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣5️⃣

Mariacake

Ita on this. All the hype set Atsumu up as a disappointment rather than giving him the opportunity to grow. 😢 It's a shame.

Neko

Y'all need to go back and read some of the comments from past weeks. There is absolutely Kita love, it's just done in a way to not spoil. If you compare the types of personalities that would like Atsumu and those that would like Kita, the comments left for each of them become understandable. I've seen you Kita lovers commenting back from episode 13. 🩶🤍

Neko

Omg this community is gold! Happy new year everyone!

Yeah but Brig also said that if the roles were reversed, then Oikawa would be the lame spinoff. Tbh I don’t really agree since they both are very different. The only thing that’s similar between them both is how they’re great setters and servers.

Nash

This is why I love their reactions, basically the love and loyalty for Oikawa is on the same level of "do not care" when it comes to Atsumu. I am thinking if Carter has a grudge about introducing another GOAT like Kita, opposing Daichi. Kita and Daichi are the perfect Asian sons. There was a meme going around awhile back about that "what is a failing grade?" scene during examination period.

Joie Dianzon 🇵🇭

They did mention that this week the schedule will be normal but let’s see

Nash

Husband is mid totally agree

Bubble Gum

I wonder if the same format will happen like last week. They might drop the 2nd part of their year end reaction to opening/closing songs instead of what’s usually dropped🤔

Mariacake

at the very least they coulve given us some variety but there are so few variations of the midcard we ususally just get the hinata one anyway sigh sigh

peachy af

good luck on your exams!

peachy af

Well, we have a different perspective of atsumu than the boys, especially those who have read the manga, and also rewatching! In my first watch I didn’t like Atsumu at all and now it’s one of my favorite characters haha

Lucía

yes! I didn’t like Oikawa, Tsuki and Atsumu and now are among my favorite ones!

Lucía

I have my university exams during the month of January and I will be watching all the rest of the match when I am finished. I don’t know how I’m going to survive this😭 but to have three videos left of your Haikyuu reactions will literally be my motivation throughout the exams, wish me luck!!!!🍀

Lucía

Me too Dianna, me too. I’d glaze him in every opportunity I get lmao

Absolutely right!

Loulix

A_Daddy Daichi

I agree with the boys, Atsumu just doesn’t do it for me 😬 good character though

A_Daddy Daichi

I feel like very few people have talked about this yet in the comments, but I totally agree with the geks that the mid cards are kinda lame😭 i miss the serves into the water bottles

Illumi

Ohhh makes sense!

Jmann

Fr 😭 like getting good grades, cleaning the bathroom and being thankful for food? Thats every Asian parents dream child right there

Nash

I don't know if it's been addressed yet, but I feel like you guys have trouble understanding if the ball is in or out so here are the basic signs. Flag pointed down / hands pointed down palm facing floor = in. Flag pointed up / Hands up palms facing referee = out.

Avery Nordbye

And the movie! Its on crunchy 👀 i haven’t seen it yet, been saving it for the first time watch with the boys 🥹

Fatipapi

I love how we all just did that collectively 😌 that’s how deep our love for Kita is

Mariacake

so true mariacake asahi is always goated

peachy af

As much as I love Kita, also wanted to highlight how Asahi was so adorable trying to cheer Nishinoya up. He was totally being a bro and gave the effort anyway even though he knows he is not good at cheering people up. True bro right there.

Mariacake

His greatness needed to shine and we all collectively didn’t want to tarnish that 😌

Mariacake

It’s definitely bittersweet! We only have a couple of episodes left 😭

Mariacake

“Kita is always watching” is what I will tell myself as I motivate myself to start washing dishes 🥹

Mariacake

Naurrrrr it’s so sad fr

lola

the next 4 episodes are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

lola

It’s so funny because I think everyone of us in the comment section silently and collectively chose not to speak on Kita because we didn’t want to spoil his greatness 🙏 glad he’s being rightfully appreciated

lola

Asking where the kita stans are - Has no idea that Kita is the godfather of everyone's first born

Spider #13

SHiratorizawa's match is 8 or 9 episodes long. By the end of this match it should be sort of the same length as that one. We had two full episodes to focus on Nekoma's match so it feels this match is longer then it actually is

Izaya

Kita is my husband and I'm so glad he isn't real because he's the cousin your parents always compare you to as an Asian kid 😂😂

kkcat

Shinsuke is kinda like a Ennoshita in the sense that he hasn’t played most of his first 2 years but will likely still be captain based on personality and age.

Secretly

All I'm gonna say that I didn't care as much as I do now about Atsumu at this point of the show. I thought he was pretty cool and that's all. It's okay if you don't feel the same about characters as we/the fandom does. But I am really curious to see how these feelings might change on the rewatch after the show is actually fully done. My opinion did a whole 180 after rewatch as a person who used to hate on Oikawa or Tsukishima on my first watch. And the ending opened a new perspective on every character, main and background included. Also spending too much time in this fandom probably makes us feel way more attached to all the characters than we're supposed to lmao. Those quarantine tiktoks about Haikyuu forever changed my brain chemistry ahahah. Before that I didn't even care for most of the characters Anyway love the video!

Ayaulym🇰🇿

Imma miss this community once haikyu is over 🥲

Sandi

Kageyama is the goat 🙂‍↕️

Sandi

Everyone is so engaged and chill with each other. And I love the humour. Plus I love talking Haikyuu. My FAV anime!

TT1000

Kita is my favourite character from the show alongside Oikawa. They are both about grinding, Oikawa grinds for the win, and Kita grinds cause that’s what you gotta do in this life. Both of them are so real and relatable.

whoYoda

Girl same 😂 guess we gotta put in the same work 😮‍💨

Fatipapi

Can’t wait for the next 2 episodes 🔥

I like Coach Ukai but if it’s marrying someone, I’d pick Takeda-sensei 😌🙈

Mariacake

Me too this is the only comments section I like reading and engaging in! Glad you’re liking it as well ☺️

Mariacake

Yes yes we were so quiet about it bec that’s how special Kita is ☺️

Mariacake

Yes~ he formed many good habits. I wish I had at least one of them 🥹

Mariacake

👆this!!

Mariacake

Yes I didn’t comment anything about Kita bec I didn’t want to ruin the watching experience!! He’s so cool right?! Do you know I put in so much effort to keep my mouth shut about this 🤣😭

Mariacake

I don't comment but I am a huge Kita fan!

Emily

same XD everyone’s comments are a joy to read

Clover

Atsumu supremacy! You guys don’t understand his character. He’s a volleyball idiot just like ushiwaka. I respect his love and passion for volleyball.

Sandi

holy f you cooked

alexis ♡︎

yippee finally got to watch!! i get the atsumu take, on my first watch i thought he was annoying too but he grew on me like a barnacle

emmy

I loved kita sm when I met him, he is everything I wanna be. Consistent and Committed

༒ dianna ༒

I didn't know that! How cool! I guess I'll take this as a sign to rewatch Run!

Tina L

Fun fact prince's voice actor is sugawara himself from haikyu!! So it's kageyama and sugawara's side quest 😂

Sdat1guy

Thank you for using your voice today! I love hearing about which characters people enjoy and/or relate to!

Tina L

Their reaction to Prince would be worth it alone!

Tina L

FACTS!

Tina L

I think one of the reasons a lot of people like Atsumu is because he has this wide eyed love for volleyball. He's one of the first "villains" that doesn't actually dislike or have a grudge against someone in karasuno. He gets just as excited to see Karasuno do something cool as he does his own team and it just makes him want to try it himself / gets him feeling more competitive. He just has a fun, goofy and over the top personality... That being said... I actually prefer Kita and he's one of my favourites from outside of Karasuno XD

Alex

With Kita i think its more consistency rather than perfection

Fatipapi

Ushijima is the ultimate GOAT of Haikyū tbh. Second would be Oikawa. Atsumu is just hot imo, that’s it 😂

Fatipapi

I don't think so. They said that ranking videos are going to replace 'some' of the reactions for this week, meaning they probably replaced reactions that were supposed to be aired that day

BeautyWillSaveTheWorld

The Atsumu hate 😂😂😂 its so funny

Fatipapi

will there still be 2 uploads this week?

Richard He

Guys when you were all hyped for the Kita reveal saying this was the team’s "mad dog" and that he was subbing out the ace so he must have been an ace or a crazy hitter, calling him Levi, I was absolutely cackling at the irony. He’s the most sweet, reliable, and straightforward character you can get. And his backstory gets me teary-eyed every time. The way he was this ominous force of power until the moment you guys realised he’s just hard-working guy was killing me. The Kita stans did a great job keeping his reveal under wraps, I’m so glad you guys like him! His chapters in the manga are absolutely amazing, true life-inspiration material haha!

MissJodles

He is genuinely such an incredible character, I love his philosophy on life. It actually changed how I thought about my daily routines and getting things done in life

MissJodles

Fr, reading the manga of Kita’s chapters felt weirdly life-changing. His whole philosophy on life is incredibly inspirational

MissJodles

Kita nation how we feelin’!

MissJodles

Yall should watch run with the wind. It's when volleyball seasons over in haikyu and kageyama signs up with the running club. Pretty chill watch

Sdat1guy

me too 🙂‍↕️ i often read whatever new comments there are when im bored and have free time

peachy af

I think this is the only Pateron’s comment section I read fully. What a bunch of fun peps.

TT1000

anyway, you look cute with that haircut brig.

bebe

Ok so their opinion on husband is valid, but i also feel like it may have been affected by the amount of hype he got before they even saw him. Like, they expected a more overwhelming presence like Ushiwaka or something. But for me, he's not on my favorite character list. I really do like him and he's an annoying adversary, but i actually kinda agree with the geks here :3 fun reaction!

peachy af

evil jazz makes a return.........

peachy af

Me, a silent watcher, Kira is really up there for me. My favorites are noya and kita, though noya likely stands out more to me solely due to how he gets more screen time. I’m so glad y’all got to see kita’s backstory 🥹

atsumu my beloved♥ fun fact: hinata and kageyama has been first and second in haikyuu popularity polls(1st kageyama 6639 votes and 2nd hinata 6058 votes) except for the second poll with suga coming in second and kageyama falling to third and hinata moved up to first.

This right here 👌🏼🤘🏻💯

Ayn Orbuda

I didn’t know this dropped yesterday 😭 asdjklasdfgjkl

Mariacake

Sure, when I first watched it Oikawa and Atsumu’s personalities seemed a bit too coincidentally similar, especially for their positions (overly dramatic, sassy, bratty, the original ‘pretty boy’ of their teams)(& that signature crap eating grin lmfao) for me to feel like Atsumu was very original. Atsumu and Oikawa both were very attached to Kageyama in terms of plot, and especially more than anyone else in Karasuno (as of now I haven’t read time skip) . I understand that is because they are all setters, but that’s just another reason on top, that with their personalities so similar, I didnt appreciate the fact that they were both setters too. This to me felt like they just needed another classic enemy to make us more attached to inarizaki and just chose an Oikawa double and changed up a few details to do it. This was a while ago when I first watched it through the first time however, and reading through some of the comments analysis of this topic is actually really interesting so maybe yall will change my mind lol. Also, this isn’t me saying they are carbon copy’s of each other (especially not in backstory and motive) but I’m just saying that during my first watch through they seemed too similar for me to really like Atsumu as an individual

Illumi

Ahhh thank you so much you two!! I love seeing y'all's comments too haha! You're too kind<3

Moon

same, kuroo 🔛🔝

CC

I think the similarities between Oikawa and Atsumu are very surface level. When you delve deeper you can see how insecure for example Oikawa is (I love him for it) in regards to Kageyama and him not being a genius and how hard he has worked. On the other hand Atsumu is absolutely goated at the game and at the same time he has true passion and hunger for the game. Whereas Oikawa might use his quips and general demeanour as almost a shield for his insecurities, Atsumu is fully confident and is very pure in his expression as far as we've seen at the moment. That's why he comes across as such an ass, he has no filter. But again that's why he's so upfront about his love for the game. If you've noticed he's complimented Hinata and Nishinoya and overall good plays and Osamu even comments that he regresses into a child during the game. I think it's completely fine to not find him appealing but I wonder how you'd feel about him on a rewatch or after finishing the story of Haikyuu. I mean I also prefer Oikawa between the two but can't help adore Atsumu. As for the comparison to Aoba Johsai, I genuinely don't see it at all. Inarizaki is more Shiratorizawa and even I'd say a mirror for future Karasuno whereas Aoba Johsai was once compared to Nekoma by Ukai maybe and gets their explosive power from Oikawa's masterful leadership. Edit: Uh actually I just thought of why some people might find it surprising that you haven't connected to Atsumu yet. I think Atsumu is the most similar to a real life goated athlete personality wise. Think Kobe. He's amazing, he's athletic, he's competitive but he also is kind of an ass. Still, he's so entertaining in his love for the game and his unfiltered way of being. I think every great athlete wants to be more of an Ushiwaka, the strong silent type, but usually they're more like Atsumu

bondbond53

THIS!

Rayanh LaNansha

If there's one character within the fandom EVERYONE loves it is indeed Kita Shinsuke. He's inspirational, an overall great guy but also seems very kind. Everyone would love him as a friend

bondbond53

lol the Atsumu hate actually makes me want to go and read the manga again, from this point on, til the end. While he's in my top 10, I can't say I'm surprised you gguys don't like him. I just remember that he grew on me and that his bratty behavior is actually what endeared him to me. I've watched the anime 3 times and read the manga that many times as well, so it's probably the rewatches that solidied him into my top 10. I'm especially eager to see the final arc animated. On top of their skilled plays and mindsets, one of my favorite thing about Atsumu's team is actually their relationship with Kita and the twins' relationship. The whole dynamic is what makes them likable to me anyway.

Rayanh LaNansha

yeah, I feel the exact same way. I really can't see the similarity.

Rayanh LaNansha

right i literally dont see it someone else said it correctly theyre more like shiratorizawa on crack!

kai

i mean yeah, he had Hinata siiickkkkk at episode 1 lol

botanbutton

Kita will always be part of my favorites in S4. Even though his screentime isn't a lot compared to other players, those few moments are wholesome and on point <3. I just watched some of your reax so I'm not sure if you like him. I hope y'all do! I'm going to watch once episode 24 is posted <3

Bingsu

yeaaah, and even as setters they’re different too(at least to me), both great of course, miya to me is a like a more experienced and naughty version of kageyama and oikawa is more collected as a player (except for when he faces his 2 geniuses😭).

beannieswife

cant relate bc my goat is Kuroo 🙏

Pavlo

sure buddy

Mia Malvik

Mines more valid

Cannon Andrus

What’s your response Cannon 🎤?

Nash

It's clear you don't hate him because you said he is a great player but the character himself is just not highly ranked, which is totally fair. If people didn't gas Atsumu up to being "husband" and continually doing it, he may not of gotten overlooked so much. I can't say yet (nothing major spoiler just rather you see it naturally) but he has an important reason as to why I REALLY like his character and would probably rate him higher than Oikawa based on this reason. The next few eps are bangers, can't wait to see the reactions

NovaRogue

The only thing that’s similar between them both is they’re great setters 😭. If we’re gonna talk about personality wise, Atsumu is a bit goofier than Oikawa.

Nash

Brig is too busy glazing Oikawa to think about anything else, no offense

yio

tbh I feel like no one is that similar to oikawa in this show, so I don’t see the miya comparison, and I’m talking about the way they’re written obviously, they’re very different to me. now if we’re talking about them as players, the only thing I see in common is the scary serves

beannieswife

It is funny because I think he is every captain's favourite lol. Previous captain Yanagida also said Kita is his favourite and yeah Yuki is just so good it so fun watching him play.

Süm

I love Kita

yio

Cannon roasting Atsumu's crash out when he just had the biggest one in patreon history over Game of Thrones in their 2024 ranking video 🦦

Mia Malvik

Kita’s the GOAT! One of my top five characters for sure, and just from one episode. This exemplifies why Haikyuu is a masterclass in character writing, every single persons actions make sense from their internal motivations. Everytime I rewatch I am inspired by a new character and how I can relate to their inner self to improve my own

khalxeesi

kita's mindset is one of my favorites in the story, and about miya😭 yeah he's not high on my ranking either but trust me, you're gonna like him more in the future. also wdym there's only 5 eps left, i feel sick🧍 life goes downhill every time i finish a haikyuu rewatch lmao

beannieswife

yuki ishikawa is my GOAT and yea both of them definitely share similar vibes and i love to see it

Clover

@Nash awww nah its ok!! maybe we’ll get to see it irl someday 🫣

Clover

Idk I don't think anyone's surprised you don't like husband lol

Mia Malvik

Kita became my favorite character just from that single episode. He's awesome. #2 is Kenma, just fyi.

rac coun

Please be carful with spoilers. The Geks read the comments too.

rac coun

@Clover I just read the haikyuu chronicles and apparently the guy who interviewed thought that move was inspired by an actual player. Sorry for the misinfo 🥲

Nash

Let’s goooooo. I love your comments 🤩

Nash

Right maybe I should edit just in case😭

Cryptcat

i had to do a double take bc my dumbass thought this was a spoiler but i realised they alr know the outcome of the match 😭 dont worry the atsumu fans will stay united 🫡

Clover

missed your comments Moon! happy to see you back 🥰

Clover

Yeah I don't see it either. I think the geks just see another team with a great setter and then somehow made a connection to Aoba Johsai.

Jude Yanada

ATSUMU IS THE AURA GOAT IDC WHAT ANYONE SAYS HE IS HIM 1. his Kansai accent (hard to see a difference if you arent japanese) 2. he's actually goated at volleyball 3. he is funny and farms aura with his music stop He is my favourite character equal to Oikawa and closesly behind is Ushiwaka.

Tomi Brewster

I'M BACK FROM THE SILENT ZONE EHEHE Episode 20 really cemented Furudate's ability to make the audience love a single character in less than 20 minutes and it's so bizarre even after rewatching Haikyuu more than 50 times. Kita is the embodiment of the notion that the small things you do daily build you up - they're what make you YOU. His rather dry but still caring and reliable personality always make me smile like a proud parent WJHBWJHB Unlike the rest of his team, who are chaotic, sometimes annoying(Atsumu), and definitely his complete opposite, Kita exudes so much calm, chill energy that I can't help but listen carefully to every word he says. He's one of the most interesting and wise characters introduced in Haikyuu, not just for his deep contemplations and philosophy about life, but also because he always delivers on what he says he will do. Like the episode says, Kita can absolutely pull off whatever he can do in practice, and it's always such a joy to see reactors take a liking to him HAHA! I'm loving the Kita love, and while yes, this match is one of the longest in Haikyuu so far, it's so worth it towards the end, when the stakes get progressively higher and everything gets even more intense. I can promise you guys that from this episode on, this match becomes FAR superior. It's actually amazing what the Inarizaki match was able to achieve despite us not really knowing the opposing team that well. Looking forward to the next drop!! I'm so excited to see it!

Moon

Cannon was kinda right about Kageyama's serve routine being from Oikawa lol. It is very similar to Oikawa's but there is a small difference. Oikawa spins the ball vertically and Kageyama spins the ball horizontally. We already know Kageyama learned serving by watching him so making their serve routines similar is a nice detail.

Süm

I love Kita so much and his philosophy is engraved into my brain. The one where he says "I'm basically built by my daily routine", " You do it right and you do it everyday" and about why do people get nervous when they practiced for it. He's an embodiment of inner peace, security with your self and self-love and I am inspired by that.

bearuber

I am glad everyone likes Kita he is an awesome character. His line "I am built upon the small things I do every day, and the end results are no more than a byproduct of that" is one of my favorites from the show. Fun fact, he is also the favourite character of the Japan's men national team captain Yuki Ishikawa.

Süm

Small edit done hopefully it didn’t spoil too much for em/didn’t catch it!

Shahraiz Akbar

Locked all the way in

idk

@Clover no for real Atsumu has already displayed monster levels of talent. He’s managed to throw Nishinoya off his game with his jump serves and copied the insane quick attack FIRST try which wasn’t a fluke because he did it again, and again, and again. That alone is better than anything we’ve seen so far in the show from an opponent. He’s such a good volleyball play and barely anyone aside from his fans recognises that

idk

omg i didnt know that XD i want to see how it looks like irl now!!

Clover

(Rises)

BubblePriest

Heck yeah, the Kita appreciation feels good. My favorite character get's his time to shine! The fearless display of his personality and never straying from his process makes him the goat. He understands aura.

BubblePriest

i think atsumu is not a character meant to be liked on the first watch, tbh he annoyed me so much when i first watched haikyuu but after every rewatch i started liking him, he’s not my fav but i really like him

Marty

It’s kinda funny bc I remember in an interview, Furudate mentioned how that move was inspired by an actual volleyball player.

Nash

@Nash they said his whole lil “cutting off the band” move before his serve was too much and they were cringing at it 🤣 but now they’re having fun joking about it tbh

Clover

Kageyama is so damn good these episodes

Anton Sakshaug

What? Who said he’s cringe? I don’t remember this😭

Nash

KITA #1 SHINSUKE

BubblePriest

@idk, me and you= 🤝🏼

Clover

i get that they dont fw atsumu and i even understand it when they say he’s cringe but when carter said “im waiting for husband to impress me” i was like 🤨 like what else u want him to do sir, bro’s already a monster from what we’ve seen so far 🤣 if he gets any better, we might need to ship him off to olympics already

Clover

Hinataaaaaaa shoyoooo

idk

Who’s your first? 👀

Nash

It’s been mentioned. The geks still need to understand the rotations

idk

I still dont get why everyone thinks he’s like oikawa. I dont see it at all, can you explain why you see it that way? Oikawa isn’t a dual serve wielder, and though he’s a great setter he’s nothing compared to atsumu who is the best high school setter in Japan. The only similarity I could see is their personality but even so atsumu is way more confident and less insecure compared to oikawa for them to be alike

idk

Your story is just like mine LDMAO the idc abt him to husband pipeline

idk

Yeah the movie was cool but when I rewatched it and read the manga I was like damnnnnn we got scammed lowkey

idk

Kita WOULD hate my procrastinating ass😭

idk

I’d side eye anyone who hates kita honestly. Even if he’s not ur favourite character you cant dislike him.

idk

Yeah Atsumu is REALLY good player, like Olympian level at his age honestly. Most reactors and fans of the show don’t see it because they don’t like his character that much. I’m guilty of that when I watched this for the first time. I was too pissed off to actually see how great of a player and setter he really was. It’s actually so impressive. I also had a feeling the Geks weren’t going to like Atsumu. Oikawa is written to be funny in a way with how sarcastic and stuff he is, but we see more of him over a span so viewers grow to like him. With atsumu, he was shoved in our face right at nationals were the stakes were higher and we didn’t have time to grow with him and understand him like oikawa.

idk

not sure if anyone has mentioned it but the reason hinata is out sometimes is because he's the middle blocker, when he's at the backline the middle blocker is replaced by the libero in the rotation, unless it's his turn to serve

AryTheDog

You guys are the only one I’ve seen compare inarizaki to seijoh. I personally don’t see it, so if someone could explain why they see it that way.

idk

Also the kita stans (like me) have been here we’ve just been silent because you haven’t met him yet and didn’t want to say anything LMAO

idk

Atsumu is the kind of character that grows on you after a rewatch. Whej i was first watching i didn’t like him, because of how much he was of a threat to Karasuno. But when I read the manga and rewatched the show, I dunno i just loved him so much and he sky rocketed up to my second favourite character. He’s really well written and I can’t say much because it’s spoilers but him in the manga is 💯

idk

Just give it time boys, peak has not arrived yet, and the twins are a big part of that

Marlon

coach ukai is the daddiest of them all 🔥

Clover

That lip biting emoji is taking me out 🤣🤣🤣

Nash

honestly kita is just so likeable, i feel like every haikyuu fan is also a kita fan, if there’s anyone who doesn’t like him…well…watch out 🔪🤣

Clover

Don’t worry guys, Kita has his own fanbase 🤣 he’s one of the best characters in the show

Cinnamon Girl

kags with the solo stuff at the end never fails to give me chills “tsumu’s not husband” “kita should be husband” you wanna know who really gives husband? daddy ukai 🫦 goodnight gek, happy holidays

alexis ♡︎

I DIDNT KNOW THIS DROPPED IM GONNA WATCH TOMORROW MORNING LFG

peachy af

IT IS ME, I AM THE KITA STANS

crissoopshii

100%

Con Wunder

Thought it was Kuroo😭

Con Wunder

If someone deserves the husband nickname it would be Kita

Con Wunder

Kita is my favorite, i still don’t get the hype with Atsumu myself. I think Osamu is better if it's about the twins.

Con Wunder

Same

Con Wunder

atsumu stocks go up every time he receives a new hater 🫱🏾‍🫲🏽

kai

I loooove Kita. He reminds me of Yukimura (The Prince of Tennis) a bit, the same ‘nice aura oh shit we are cooked’ feeling when he gets on the court.

Karina

oh regarding Seijoh, i actually do see the similarities in that the Inarizaki team dynamic is similar to the Seijoh one because Oikawa is very silly and Atsumu can be, too, Iwaizumi reels him in and understands/support him in the way Osamu kinda does, but also differently if that makes sense? So I do see it. and yes, Kageyama has the same pre-serve routine Oikawa does, he's always had it actually!

bella

Kita's actually my favorite on this team alongside Suna (or Rintaro, whichever you prefer calling him)!! i just didn't wanna talk about him before he was introduced so we didn't spoil you, but he's genuinely so so great and endearing. Atsumu was definitely a grower for me LMAO which is crazy because Oikawa is my favorite character and they share some similar personality traits, but they're also so very different and Atsumu to me has always been a little hard to like, so i get it 😭 but he is amusing and entertaining. I actually like his twin, Osamu better though personally.

bella

Yeah if they ever decide to watch a basketball anime it should be Slam Dunk. I like Kuroko no Basket, but Slam Dunk is (objectively) better written on all fronts. Kuroko’s animation is really nice though.

Karina

I’m actually kinda surprised you guys don’t see the appeal in Atsumu’s character, but I definitely agree that there are also other great characters on his team that deserve praise too. I was sure you guys were gonna love him though lmao. 😭 He is one of the few all-around good players. The dude adapts and evolves in real time. What other team have we faced that was able to perfectly mimic Hinata and Tobio’s insane quick after seeing them do it once? It’s not like he had the time to practice that. He literally just did it on a whim because he thought it looked cool. 💀 He also has the deductive skills of Oikawa and is capable of pretty much hitting the ball exactly where he wants to go when serving. The dude is an absolute monster. Not only just at setting (which is what he is known for) but at serving and receiving as well.

Mason Schutz

Theres a reason why Oikawa and Kita are my fav Haikyuu characters. They are so grounded and relatable to me.

Nico

I think all your opinions on atsumu are pretty valid. I don't think you necessarily have to like him/fear him more than oikawa or that he has as much "aura" to use brainrot. In reality, I think oikawa is a national level player but his team was never good enough to make it to nationals because of ushijima so he just didn't get national recognition. You could honestly argue if oikawa had tsukki and noya on his team that they could beat ushijima. I think atsumu is distinct from oikawa though because he's like a goofier oikawa but without all the insecurities oikawa has of not being good enough to beat kageyama and ushijima. Atsumu is a little more like hinata in that he just really loves playing great volleyball. Also I agree kita is goated, and people like him a lot they just weren't going to spoil it. Also he's the captain if it's not obvious so it is quite interesting having him on the bench. Also, on nishinoya being targeted by atsumu, brigg pointed it out before that nishinoya is actually kinda sucky at receiving float serves and not as practiced with overhead passes which is one of the best ways to counter them and atsumu has the best float serve in the nation as a highschooler. It's hard to portray how hard a good float serve is to receive, but honestly the show is really close to how it is in real life. I would take receiving hard jump spin serves 10/10 times over a good float serve unless the spin serves are being hit by college/pro players tbh.

kringlekrisp

especially with the one you mentioned kinda the biggest one you can spoil.

M2GZ

This is a nice comment but it is spoiling them as they don't know who gets and who doesn't get back stories so id suggest you delete it or edit it.

M2GZ

KITA STANS (finally) RISE

He’s my goat of course I miss him

Brig Andrus

Sometimes I wonder if I'm as consistent in my daily tasks as Kita. My procrastinating ass could never.

anji banji

yeah they cut sooo much it definetly should have been adapted as part of a 5th season

Harrison Hird

Great reactions. In regard to Atsumu I find him amusing. I don't think of him as a husband or stan him, but he's an interesting character. Kita is a pretty cool character. He's like their Daichi when it comes to receiving and digging up balls. Suna's skills confused me at first, but once they explained it it was pretty cool to watch. It would be so annoying as a blocker though. I'm excited for next Tuesdays drop.

Jenny D

27:25 🤣

Clover

Elite catch 😂

Studio Geck

Where is the time stamp for this, Carter is confused

Cannon Andrus

bro kags just doing monster serves, setting freak quicks and blocking aran alone, what can this man not do??😮‍💨🔥

Clover

When I get home, this is the first thing Im gonna do 😭😭😭

Patriicia

Even their libero.

Nash

the moment i heard the movie was only gna be 1h30mins long, i alr kinda knew how it was gna go 🥲

Clover

☠️☠️☠️☠️ ok imma add it then

Nash

my messy procrastinator ass doesnt deserve someone like kita 🥺

Clover

same! ofc i liked the movie but imo it did feel kinda fast so i didn’t get very emotionally invested 💔 it was still exciting and fun to watch tho

An

“i get really nervous when im on the toilet” from cannon is sending me 💀 cause same

Clover

ginjima is so underrated like looking back at it i didn’t realize he made up most of the points with aran

kai

wait what happened to your “shiratorizawa on steroids” line 😭 that was actl funny

Clover

The amount of times Oikawa was mentioned makes me think that yall kinda miss him 👀

Nash

nah mannn, Kita is who you introduce to your parents. Husband material right there

Sun

I see a lot of people excited for the movie. I will balance the expectations and say that the movie was not up to my expectations. There were still peak scenes but as a whole, it was too fast paced.

SoySauce

The Tony Romo/Jim Nantz commentary 😂

Elle B.

Kita >>> Husband

Teaq

They’re more similar to Shiratorizawa if anything.

Nash

Ladies and Gentle Geks, Lock in for peak Haikyu Next week!!!!!! God im so excited

Niko

Fun fact:- Suna (Inarizaki’s short middle blocker #10) and Mahito from jjk share the same VA

Nash

As always, love your guys' reactions to this show and everything else. Have a happy holidays fellas

Shahraiz Akbar

Kita full backstories are some of my favorite in the show/manga. I hope one day you guys can skim through the manga for the later chapters, even if on your own time as I feel like it does a really good job, and the show does cut some stuff out as well as the movies I would assume. Love the wholesome and loving family dynamics, and how your upbringing helps turn you into the person you are, especially as someone who's part of a bigger family!

Shahraiz Akbar

Ironically they are kind of opposites xD

M2GZ

Atsumu is a good character. He does have a lot of similarities to Oikawa. However he is more immature and less insecure. He is just as driven for volleyball as Kageyama, Hinata, Ushijima, etc. And has high standards for himself and his team. Where Oikawa was more complimentary. Atsumu has his moments, and more of them as the series progresses. I can’t say much without spoiling.

TT1000

MY GOAT IS HERE !!!! i actually don't really care that much for Atsumu, I prefer his twin better but Kita is the true GOAT of their team, I've been waiting for him !!!!

I’m Tired

Please watch the last 3 episodes together 🙏

rene

When it comes to the kita stans I do think they did a much better job at containing their excitement for him because hyping him up is pretty much telling you he's coming in and cooking. As for Atsumu being a Oikawa knock off I think that's just a very surface level assessment theirs not much similar between them character wise besides they play the same position and both have fan girls, even if they are both cheeky especially with kageyama lol.

M2GZ

We’re honestly really stretching to get things done right now so we will see what we can do!

Studio Geck

I just check because your comments made me curious and this match and Shiratorizawa's have 39 manga chapters each.

Ale

Nah I don’t really agree that Aoba Johsai and Inarizaki are similar. Bc almost every player in Inarizaki are actually strong individually. Aoba Johsai isn’t like that and Oikawa usually brings the best out of them as long as the players have potential. Inarizaki’s like Shiratorizawa on steroids tbh

Nash

honestly i didnt feel for atsumu much in my first watch too and i think that goes for alot of people so i dont think its a hot take actually 😭 i actually liked osamu and kita way more than him at first , but with atsumu i guess it takes time and also goes back to personal tastes 😂 now, i like husband as much as oikawa and i carry around their little keychains wherever i go XD

Clover

atsumu isnt my fav character (oikawa #1) but i do rlly like him! i didnt really care about him during my first watch but i started liking him the more times i rewatched this season of haikyu lol he just kinda snuck up my list 🤣

An

When it comes to Atsumu (husband) I think you guy's opinion on him was heavily affected by the comment section. Atsumu's first introduction was him giving a snarky comment to Kageyama he's definitely not written to be likeable off rip, he's a pompous little shit that you cant help but sorta end up liking throughout the match, because yes this is the longest match in haikyuu and watching him and his brother be brothers and contantly bicker is pretty endearing lol. Similarly with Tendou where he's certainly meant to be creepy and weird at first you cant help but kinda like him after the match. However when people tell you "he's my goat" or "my favorite character" it creates a disconnect from what the shows trying to depict as the expectations are being given to you by your fans and not the show itself. I'd say this episode is when I first really started to really like Atsumu and the rest of Inarizaki, feeling like god dammit as much of a lil shit that he is he's pretty funny. but I doubt you guys will end up feeling the same feelings as if you went blind like me since your expectations were hindsight merchanted from the start. (but hey that's just my opinion maybe I'm wrong)

M2GZ

kita’s backstory gets me everytime 🥲

kai

I love that the fandom is in agreement regarding not spoiling Kita's entrance. He absolutely is beloved.

Betty H

LMFAO 37:11

TT1000

My reason for liking Atsumu as a character is definitely something that comes up in future episodes. I started out with feeling uncomfortable with him, then intrigued, and now I think he's a great character, but again it is for something that shows up later on.

ThePugProtector

Imma have to disagree with cannon on the aoba johsai take, I think inarizaki more like shiratorizawa where the team is just filled with insanely strong individuals whereas aoba johsai takes what is has and elevates it

FURsona

also Kita is very underrated as a captain ❤️

Illumi

fr im sick outta my mind 😭

Clover

idk if its any better to say Bokutos more husband to me rather than Atsumu haha bc u guys make fun of him too lmao. But on a real note, I agree with the statement that Atsumu feels a bit like an Oikawa spinoff, so thats why hes kinda ruined for me

Illumi

i think carter just wants husband to serve a ball that can destroy muzan just like oikawa did XD man is not satisfied with the dual type serves

Clover

"these guys did it in 3 months" XD what show has this guy been watching

Colin Boehling

we really got 5 eps left im sick……

kai

lol it's okay, you don't have to like Atsumu! 😂 Just like you don't have to like Asahi. Would I like you to? Of course. But is it mandatory? Not at all!

botanbutton

can’t wait for the next two 😋

maria

Impossible to say anything about Kita before this episode tho Kita my goat, he didn't even played one single match, he didn't have an uniform until his third year and it was the captain one. Definitely someone is alway watching and he got what he deserves ❤️

Ale

atsumu is not my husband but he’s cool tho! :3

maria

Kageyama as an op is is actually disgustingly frustrating

omar gelle
