duos in which the other is the ONLY ONE who can naturally nitpick the other AND cut through the others storm of overthinking & doubts with genuine straightforward words-leading the other to actually smile (kageyama) and laugh (kita) kagehina & arankita ?
srsly just look at them after they're delivered the latter one. It's exactly what they needed to hear. ch 224 & ch 274 give a look into kageyama & kita respectively, a tie up for the former & a backstory/intro for the latter. & in both there is that one person shakes them ?
anyway remember that bonus chapter of yachi feeling insecure until yamaguchi told her something uplifting well MEANWHILE kageyama assumed their talking about hinata- basically another show of kageyama's ~hinata tunnel vision~
the fact furudate really made this line happen in canon is valuable in itself, but the way they weaved it in, kageyama's words come from his heart, with the most content expresssion we've seen from him, during the peak of their fateful match.... the execution is breathtaking https://t.co/gn2X6YnJNF
haikyuu ain't a BL but it's prototype kghn first meeting sure gives off that vibe huh
so that kageyama and hinata huh *breaksdown*
hq 365 & 370 scenes in which we never see kageyama's & hinata's expressions, is when they're staring at each other, during important moments that involve the other. there's this hidden vulnerability about both panels. in a way, by keeping it hidden, furudate already tells us sm-
insane... oh to be kageyama tobio & fall endlessly in love with a particular someone's prowess in the sport... that is basically his love language ??
well glad one of my favourite ever mini panels was animated, gremlin sugahina headlock!! ??
387 anniversary also means happy kageyama miwa reveal anniversary!! a year ago another interesting & loveable woman was introduced to haikyuu. she showed us that one could love volleyball deeply but still pursue other things. a character who strongly follows her desires ???
kageyama tobio, sexy setter of Ali Roma, is not a virgin. why? because:
having fun uncovering kageyama tobio's rival-esque lines @ hinata shouyou 😌
