[p003]

left: Nishinoya shines!!!

Sideburns: He got it!!

(Ukai): "A good receiver is most effective
(Ukai): with good blocks."

Ukai: I know you guys must be exhausted, but

Ukai: be conscious of your blocking setups.
Ukai: If you go about it haphazardly, you won't just fail to stop the ball. You'll also end up hindering the receive.
Box: The ball could come through anywhere

[p004]

Tsuki: You're not the sharpest tool in the shed, so
Tsuki: you should just use the attack-side blocker as a guideline and follow his lead.

Ukai: If our blocking "wall" starts to fall apart, it might as well be the end of our defense against Shiratorizawa's "cannon."

Ukai: The way to win,
Ukai: be it in offense or defense, is to create a "numerical advantage." Don't forget that.
Team: Right!!

Tsuki: Azumane-san.

Tsuki: Let's close Ushiwaka out of a cross-court spike just a bit more than usual.
Tsuki: If Nishinoya-san is able to see a slightly wider area, there's a greater likelihood he'll be able to receive the spike.

(Asahi): Tsukishima's thinking one step ahead.

[p005]

(Asahi): When it comes to blocking, Tsukishima truly is realiable.
Tsuki: Nice receive.

Tobio: Hrg!
Noya: Thanks, Kageyama!

[p006]

Noya/Asahi: HELL YEAAH!!!

Noya/Asahi: YESSS!!!
Tsuki: Gh?!

Voice: It's a break for Karasuno!!!
Scoreboard: Shiratorizawa | Karasuno

Saeko: Yuu's amazing, ain't he!!
Shimada: Woow, that block was nicely done, too.

Shimada: It kinda feels like Tsukki's broken out of his shell, doesn't it?

[p007]

(Asahi): Tsukishima isn't just getting better as a single blocker.
(Asahi): He's becoming our blocking playmaker.

Washi: Tsutomu!!
Washi: Put yourself right in the middle of things, or you're not gonna be able to do digs or one-touch follow-ups, got it!!
Goshiki: R-right!

Goshiki: Urgh... coach is calmer than usual,
Goshiki: except with me...
Reon: Why do you think he's yelling at you the most?

Goshiki: Because I'm inexperienced!!
Reon: It's because he expects the most from you.

Goshiki: Okay,
Goshiki: bring it on!!
Gata: How simple can you get...?!
Reon: It's the truth, though.

[p008]

Voice: In front!
Reon: Got it!

(Ukai): One point after another...
(Ukai): Ushiwaka doesn't hesitate in the slightest...

[p009]

(Ukai): Things haven't gone as they expected, so he doesn't plan on letting the match continue any further than necessary, huh...?
(Ukai): He may not look it, but that's one bullishly stubborn setter they've got.

(Washi): Hm... but
(Washi): we don't need an assertive setter like that.
(Washi): Nah, it's different.

(Washi): It would be wrong to say that Shirabu
(Washi): doesn't have any assertiveness as a setter.
(Washi): He's quite the rascal, carrying out intensely assertive setups that practically shout "Well? Take a look at our ace."

(Washi): A rascal who fits in perfectly at Shiratorizawa.

Ushi: My bad.

Scoreboard: Shiratorizawa | Karasuno

Tendou: There!

[p010]

Tendou: You're so sloooow~

Tendou: Blocking is
Tendou: all about reading and placement, y'know?

Tsuki: Blocking
Tsuki: is a system.

Gata: Uryaa!
Voice: Nice receive!

[p012]

Shirabu: Goshiki!

(Tobio): It's the guy with a sharp straight spike.

(Tobio): We'll close him out
(Tobio): of the straight.

(Ukai): Alright! Hinata's caught on quick!!

[p014]

(Tobio): He hit it from even further out?!

Crowd: Woaah?!
Crowd: That straight would be insanely hard to pull off!!

Shimada: That bob-haired guy hit the ball through the mere crack of an opening between Kageyama and the antenna.
small text: It looked like they'd done enough to close him out of it, though.
label: Antenna

Box: OUT!!
Shimada: By the way, it would be considered out if you hit the ball from the other side of the antenna, or if the ball or player touched the antenna.

Tendou: That was a fluke just now, right? Totally a fluke, right? I bet your heart's beating like crazy.
Goshiki: A fluke? Of course not.

Goshiki: I am the miracle worker ace, after all!
Tendou: Don't put it another way to sound cool!

Voice: That's a break for Shiratorizawa!!
Scoreboard: Shiratorizawa | Karasuno

Daichi: Aaalright.
Daichi: That was impressive! But!!

[p015]

Daichi: We'll just use another method to get that point back!
Shou/Tanaka: YEAH!!

(Ukai): That's right.

(Ukai): Receives, spikes, blocks, and serves. All of them are individual variations of offense and defense.
(Ukai): With a team that changes every year and players who are still developing, you can't possibly perfect everything.

(Ukai): Everyone makes a choice as to
(Ukai): what weapons they will strengthen.

(Ukai): This is a battle of what they chose, what they trained,

(Ukai): and just how far they took it.

[p016]

Shou: Hogyaa!

Crowd: Nice kill!!!

(Suga): Use your "numerical" advantage

[p017]

(Suga): and go get'em!
left: Synchronized attack!!

(Kawa): Ugh... here it comes.
(Kawa): I hate this move.

(Kawa): But

[p018/019]

Crowd: He blocked itttt!!!

Voice: Nice kill, Kawanishi!

Crowd: Kawanishi!
Voice: Shiratorizawa's taken the lead!!!
Crowd: Kawanishi!

(Washi): If you're going with tricky new techniques and co-op attacks,

(Washi): then we
(Washi): will crush them using the strength our players have honed as individuals.

(Ukai): Individual physical abilities, height, and power...
(Ukai): If that were all you had to show as proof of your strength, this match would be a lot simpler.

(Ukai): But it isn't. Your strength runs deeper than that.
(Ukai): And that's what makes this interesting.
