Other Haikyuu Fans: "Kagehina Is Better Because X!" "No, Atsuhina Is Better Because Y!" "Bullshit, Neither

If you think Nagi's confession and Reo's reaction is dramatic in blue lock, then you're not ready to see it from epinagi's perspective.

The level of yearning is gonna be astronomical.

So this was a pre-planned (and likely paid for by the Kremlin) show: to invite Zelenskyy, scold him like a kindergartener in front of the press, present him with an unreasonable "deal" - an ultimatum - knowing full well he will refuse it (as anyone in this position would). And then tell the world: "Look, our mighty Orange King could've ended this horrible war in a day, but this poorly-dressed, warmongering, ungrateful twat just doesn't want peace! It's not our fault, we did what we could!"

The show is so cheap, so transparent, yet still effective for so many brainless people.

Why can't we ever use bullshit bioessentialism for fun things

You can complain or hate Chris Prince for being an extra or annoying coach in previous chapters but you can't DENY THAT HE DID SOMETHING RIGHT IN THE LATEST CHAPTER AND THAT'S TO PASS TO REO AND HAVE HIM SCORE A GOAL FUCKING FINALLY.

Look Manshine City is not a terrible team. It's one of the greatest teams with stacked players like Agi, Reo, Chigiri, Nagi etc. The problem is their strategy.

First and foremost, you can't just center a whole ass strategy with one striker. Okay, we understand that Nagi is a genius but what if there are circumstances or situations during a match that makes him unable score? That's where you center and focus on another player or striker to make that goal.

Personally, I really like Loki's plan on having a team Rin and team Shidou in PxG because you're utilizing two of your best strikers on the pitch against the opponents. (I have reservations about their recent match against BM. But that match is done. So there's that).

Just like with the other coaches, he saw a POTENTIAL WHEN HE SEES ONE. REO DESERVES THIS SPOTLIGHT. REO TYING THE GAME IS MAGNIFICENT.

I'm just really liking Reo's own agency so far. It really reminds me of how he just tried to overcome his co-dependency with Nagi in the previous U20 arc. Reo's growing more confident and assertive on his own. Own it mf. OWN THAT CHAMELEON TECHNIQUE AND BE YOUR OWN EGOIST.

For those of you who may not be too familiar with the manga, during ch39: Portrait of a Father, Akutagawa shows up, as Dazai's informant, to give Atsushi documents about who the orphanage headmaster was and what happened to him.

At that moment, Akutagawa shows an uncharacteristic clemency towards Atsushi, saying that "Atsushi's master died today", and compares this to his own relationship with Dazai.

This was a long time ago now, and a lot has happened since. The Cannibalism arc is right after this, where they are very antagonistic towards each other, and includes this scene:

Akutagawa, despite his bitterness towards Atsushi for who he is to Dazai, has seen how similar they are in this sense. Atsushi hasn't, because his gratefulness towards Dazai prevents him from seeing that Akutagawa's experience was completely different with this same person. (he's also not given any time by the narrative to wonder about it)

but then just came along chapter 122!!!

Atsushi gets to see, 1:1, the relationship between Akutagawa and Dazai. For the first time, Akutagawa is relatable to him.

And of course, at the end, Atsushi calls out the illusion as being the headmaster wearing Dazai's face because we are closing this loop! We are forcing Atsushi to see Akutagawa the same way Akutagawa has been seeing him!

The new chapter peaked
