(Box):
Karasuno High School
2nd Time-out

Boy: Man, they set things up with a serve and still couldn't stop him...

Sideburns: Sometimes they'll stop'im, and sometimes they won't!
(Boy): Ehh?
(Boy): Are you really saying that?!
(Boy2): You've been heckling them, too!

Ukai: It'd definitely be cool if we could get past
Ukai: that 3-man block and those powerhouse spikes.
Ukai: It'd boost morale, too.

[p003]

Crowd: Shiratorizawa!
Ukai: Still, don't be so eager to end this.
Crowd: Shiratorizawa!

Ukai: When you're frustrated, you probably want to finish it in one shot, but
Crowd: Shiratorizawa!
Ukai: One-touches... rebounds...
Ukai: Don't forget to visualize "the next play" in your mind.
Ukai: All plays are connected.

Tobio: That doesn't mean he wants you to start defending.
Shou: I know, okay!!!
Asahi: In other words... attack with 100% power.
Asahi: There's no need to give our opponents any free balls.

Ukai: I keep saying this, but
Ukai: even if an attack doesn't directly score, it will definitely have an effect later on.

Ukai: We're finally playing a 5-set match.
Ukai: It'd just be such a waste to battle it out thinking that it's "long and tiresome", y'know?

Box: Time-out over
Tsuki: Um,

Tsuki: when we're doing 3-man blocks,
Tsuki: could you leave the timing to me?

Semi: Shirabu.

(right):
Shiratorizawa Academy
3rd year Setter
Semi Eita
Semi: Think carefully about how often you toss to Wakatoshi.

Shirabu: Yes.
Shirabu: Don't worry.

Semi: You little...!
Tendou: Now, now.

Crowd: I wonder why Semi-san isn't their regular setter.
Crowd: When we were in middle school, Semi-san was skilled and pretty well-known, but

[p005]

Crowd: frankly, isn't he better than Shirabu-san?
Crowd: That depends on what you consider skilled.
Crowd: I like the feeling of security you get with Shirabu-san, y'know?

Crowd: Also, apparently he's the only one among the regulars who isn't here on a sports recommendation.
Crowd: Impressive, right?
Crowd: Dude, that's not even relevant.
