Because normally the appeal of this sport is ass cheeks hanging out bouncing everywhere. Guys do everything better, so when you see a serious game of VB it looks intense as fuck lol
More than half those saves were just Libero being a Libero. Love that there aren't really formal positions in volleyball, anyone could spike, set, recieve or serve if they need to. Except for "Guy Who Does Awesome Saves and Nothing Else"
Not really accurate title tbh, Liberos are defense specialists yeah, but they can Set and Spike. "no formal positions" i mean yes and no, the "Setter" is usually the brain of the offense, theres Wing Spiker, Ace, Pinch server. Those are formal titles, but i know what you meant... you can do teams in two ways, complete specialists, or "one for all", i mean everyone does everything. In Haikyuu, Karasu is a team of specialists that somehow come together to make a powerhouse.
@@jestfullgremblim8002 I adore Yamamoto's receives. Just when you think the ball's finally touching the floor, that man sprints towards it like his life depended on it.
That would be about 3 episodes with 14 intense flashbacks of how they've been playing volleyball all their lives Just for clarification I have never watched Haikyuu Guys I'm not saying that Haikyuu has lots of flashbacks I'm just talking about sport anime's in general
Gotta appreciate the rival team for not only giving JP the chance to shine but for being a strong fierce competitor that took JPs all to shine against.
It's really crazy how you can see the techniques being used.. like my favorite is when they gather a small group to the front to nullify a spike so the back lane can catch it and create new opportunities.. they probably have all unique roles but all play the same mindset..
It's just called blocking. The people in the front row are allowed to block and the libero makes the receive after (the guy in the different coloured shirt)
Not enough people are talking about No. 5. He played incredible defense too. You can see him sliding for a save early in the clip at the top left, but his teammate was able to catch it. No matter where the ball went, No 5 was ready to support the defense. I’m glad he got his moment to shine with that one-handed dive receive!!
Wow, what a slam dunk that libero just threw from the outfield! The serve really had some curveball action, and you could see the setter running a perfect pick-and-roll before kicking the spike into the back of the end zone. Absolute hat-trick material, and the crowd goes wild like it’s the bottom of the ninth in a power play!

@@nataliazolecka I live in Germany, mate. Our bigger cities are all feeling very unsafe since 2015…it‘s getting worse by the minute. I‘ve been hearing a lot of great things about how safe Poland had become in comparison.
I watched this internal rugby game Russia vs Japan. The height difference was absurd let alone weight. Yet the Japan team absolutely stomped the Russian team haha sweeping their legs from under them and speed blitzing into chaos coming out with the ball in hand and scoring over and over and over. Russia lost that day but it was a brutal battle on both sides
Since we're talking about disadvantages Japan has and has overcome its also worth noting that the nation they're playing, Slovenia, have less than 1/60 the population and can go toe to toe (if not outright wins) in most of the top team sports.
@@pueohoot543 he mentions a match on video. Its in Poland Łódź You speak about diferent match. You guys are both right just speak about two diferent things
Cause that is the most important part of the sport. If you cant receive well, block well with blocking direction giving the receiver being more view, you get trashed. If you receive so well, you dont even have to attack. Let the other team try and try and try again. It is demoralising. And bam, like here, just 1 real and complete attack from the japan team and the other team fail.
Yeah, good sports anime like Haikyuu or Hajime no Ippo stick quite close to real life when it comes to the sport they're portraying, they just styalize how it looks to make it look even more awesome. Then theres Kuroko where they just do dumb shit for the sake of it.
Why?? It is the equivalent to say imagine god playing volley-ball. He does not have to touch the ball. A swing of his arm would push the air and stop the ball. It would not be interesting.
Dude that final receive from the libero that just went directly to the setter and was high enough for the whole team to get ready for the set. *Chef's kiss*
Finally volley ball getting some love… also the reason the one in the red has such crazy saves is because he is the libero, his aim is to keep the ball in play
Hot dang, both sides are impressive. One side felt well oiled, they kept setting things up- they weren't excessively using energy and they were making shots that would tire out the other team. ... But the sheer persistance and frantic scrabble of just hitting it back from the white team is crazy and awesome to watch. Like- hot dang, it felt like an anime- I swear that time paused for a solid minute for them to have a heart to heart speech or some other trope xD

Ok but why does this actually look more entertaining to watch than any other sport.
It's rare to have this long rally in volleyball.
because it's a technical but very free sport, soccer is similar but it's less technical, other sports tend to be too rigid
Give hockey a try :)
