When he had made the video in June, it had been technical but also easy on the eyes of people without volleyball knowledge. Now, shortly before Asahi’s birthday, what he put together took both sides to the extreme and added technique to the mix.»

Somehow, Nishi was not as bothered by Tsukishima's snide remark as Asahi thought he would be. Asahi was so amazed by the realisation of the two having fun with giving each other a hard time, that he briefly forgot why they had asked Tsukishima about subtle hints at all.»

When he had rubbed his leg against Takanobu at his friend's dinner table, Takanobu had wondered if he could swallow any food despite his fear.»

Takanobu's body reacted before the thought fully formed in his mind.

Haikyuu manga panels with Kageyama's head shown only above the nose, remembering Koganegawa's high set to Aone during their match against Seijoh and Hinata saying, "I THINK TSUKISHIMA HIT THE BALL HIGHER WITH KOGANE-GAWA SETTING!" In the lower panel Kageyama is staring at unsuspecting Koganegawa looking to the right and talking to someone out of the frame. There is a halo of flames behind Kageyama and the Sound effect "Fwoosh!" written above his head.

Why did the fandom sleep on Kage/Kogane? How don't people see this as one of the most fun and most cute dynamics?
