MINDER

MINDER
BUT YES LAST TIME ON VOLLEYBLOBS
♔Kippie
MINDER
tanaka is the absolute greatest
MINDER
no one dare say otherwise
MINDER
BEGIN EPISODE 3
MINDER
k
MINDER
kageyama is that you sleeping in class
MINDER
setter-senpai is kind senpai
MINDER
setter-senpai is not good enough for hinata
MINDER
HINATA ONLY WANTS TO HAVE KAGEYAMA SPIKING VOLLEYBALLS FOR HIM OR WHATEVER
MINDER
OMFG hinata you only want to play volleyball to beat kageyama
MINDER
that's
MINDER
adorable and sad
MINDER
and kageyama is eavesdropping on him
MINDER
I would think think kageyama would be ALL ABOUT having hinata on his team given how hard he was on his junior high teammates for not being SUPER INTO IT
MINDER
and there is no one more SUPER INTO IT than hinata who lives, breathes and sweats volleyball
MINDER
i'm assuming this is somehow related to Kageyama's Middle School Drama™ we haven't explored yet
MINDER
everyone's scared of Daichi
MINDER
i personally am scared of these faceless other first-years
MINDER
kageyama is poking hinata with a stick and tell him to receive better
MINDER
"you don't receive with your face"
MINDER
hinata wants a cool nickname
MINDER
Instead, I am calling him dokired
MINDER
oh my god these first-years
MINDER
volleybully tsookie and volleyblob-adorable yamaguchi
MINDER
okay so Tsukishima is "Tsookie's" real name I'm fuckin calling him Tsuki
MINDER
yamaguchi tadashi is the less douche-y pa one, and also
MINDER
HE IS ADORABLE
MINDER
TADASHIIIIIIII
MINDER
also hinata is already getting superprotective of kageyama
MINDER
'THIS DOUCHE IS MY DOUCHE'
MINDER
'YOU DON'T GET TO HARASS HIM THAT IS MY JOB'
MINDER
another montage
MINDER
i wasn't kidding this anime has been like at least a quarter montage
MINDER
kageyama drinking a juice box is sort of adorable by the way, just. throwing that out there
MINDER
TANAKA IS SINGING ABOUT BEING LATE
MINDER
TANAKA IS BEST
MINDER
o-oh no
MINDER
ere come the feels
MINDER
THERE THEY GO AGAIN I LIED
MINDER
there was this really emotional scene of hinata making an impossible spike and kageyama finally acknowledging him by tossing the ball, and
MINDER
and there was slow animation and intense music and stunned senpais
MINDER
and it was A BIT EMOTIONAL IMPACT
MINDER
then in the next shot hinata is literally a satellite for a cloud of happy sparkles and i remember that this is an anime about fucking volleyball
MINDER
now hinata is vomiting from volleyboverexertion oh god
MINDER
END EPISODE 3
MINDER
BEGIN EPISODE 4
MINDER
tanaka took off his shirt and started waving it like a flag to celebrate Senpaigate2014
MINDER
hinata + kageyama + TANAKA
MINDER
vs.
MINDER
tsukibully + ♥tadashi♥ + ...i forgot the last one oops
MINDER
oh huh it's daichi
MINDER
oh nooooo tsuki is bringing up kageyama's emabrassing middle school stories
MINDER
and by "embarassing" I mean "traumatizing for himself and others"
MINDER
o-oh his teammates ignored his toss and embarassed him after he screamed at them
MINDER
no one even jumped from the toss
MINDER
OH
MINDER
HINATA
MINDER
HINATA YOU'RE SO PRECIOUS
MINDER
i have to transcribe this verbatim there aren't words for it
MINDER
after tsuki tears into kageyama about his TRAUMATIC VOLLEYBALL PAST of being benched from the team for the most important match of the year and losing the esteem of everyone
MINDER
hinata just
MINDER
nah man it's middle school
MINDER
"you toss to me just fine"
MINDER
"it makes no difference to me"
MINDER
"THE REAL PROBLEM IS HOW I'M GOING TO GET PAST [TSUKI]"
MINDER
(because HINATA IS SHORT hinata more like hinatiny)
MINDER
"we'll win against Tsukishima, become official club members, and you will bravely play setter!"
MINDER
"and you'll toss to me."
MINDER
oh my god hinata just turned a really uplifting volleyball sequence and speech into a metaphor for both his and kageyama's terrifying loneliness issues
MINDER
NO ONE WAS THERE TO TOSS THE BALL FOR YOU THEN KAGEYAMA, BUT NOW I AM HERE
MINDER
I WILL TOSS ANY BALL I CAN GET
MINDER
I WILL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR YOU
MINDER
*NEED ME*
MINDER

MINDER
TANAKA
MINDER
MINDER
tsuki was bullying hinatiny about not being cut out to be a spiker 'cause he's SHORTY MCSHORT and tanaka he
MINDER
he broke out in this TERRIFYING FUCKING SMILE AND RAISED HIS FIST UP
MINDER
TO GO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF HIM
MINDER
I LOVE TANAKA
MINDER
kageyama is poetic
MINDER
"You have fast reflexes, so go like 'PAH' or 'GWAH!'" (increasingly elaborate hand gestures)
MINDER
okay bestsenpai is named suguwara
MINDER
kageyama is basically just telling hinata GO ANYWHERE YOU FUCKING WANT, I'LL GET THE BALL TO YOU
MINDER
kageyama has good detection skills
MINDER
SO GOOD THAT HE WAS ABLE TO HIT THE BALL TO HINATA'S HAND
MINDER
AND HINATA SPIKED IT WITH HIS EYES CLOSED
MINDER
kageyama is so blinded by this absolute trust that he loses his A-game
MINDER
and
MINDER
.......starts having fun during the match
MINDER
PLAYING FOR FUN
MINDER
