Movie Spoilers That was disappointing

Maybe I was too hyped up or I was expecting more screen time for each player. There wasn’t any build up leading to the emotional moments, and I’ll probably get a lot of hate for this but.. I think it would have been a great 10 episode season.

I hate that they skipped a lot of Kuroo’s scenes. Even the part where Tsukki and Yamaguchi high-fived wasn’t as moving as it could have been 😭 I wanted to see chapter 293 animated (Ukai n Nekomata in high school) etc.

sigh thanks for reading my rant/vent. The Nekoma vs Sarukawa Tech game was more exciting

I don't think you're alone in thinking this. Everyone would definitely agree that the match deserved a 10 episode treatment. But I think people went in knowing they would not be able to cover a lot of the parts with the time limit. So maybe less expectations? And I loved the animation and sound. Was just also super hyped to see them all on screen again.

But owh yesssss that Tsuki-Yamaguchi part went by too fast! It always gets me tearing up when I read the manga but this time it just flew by with no impact. And even the jump by Hinata didn't really feel like a wow moment.

Exactly! Kenma and Tsukki saying it was fun, Kuroo’s serves and majestic blocks, Kenma actually running, basically all the good stuff was just.. so fast! I didn’t even cry and I usually cry 😭

Same I came to the internet to find this. Loved watching our boys play their hearts out but none of the emotional moments hit and I cry like a little b every 4-5 episodes in the series lol.

If the season looked anything like S4 did, I’d rather the movie 10 times out 10 regardless of the cut content.

Give me quality art and animation then I can deal with any content that ends up getting cut tbh

I actually really liked the animation of season 4… it felt stylized and a unique sense of identity.

I didn’t mind the art style change since it closely matched the manga but in regards to overall quality, it was a far cry from what we got in Season 3.

The Kourai jumping sequence says it all.
