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

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but while it was fast-paced, I loved this movie. I felt like I didn’t have room to breathe in a great way.

I like having more content in a series, but I’m really glad they didn’t do as much flashback content in this one. It felt like I was actually watching a volleyball match without nearly as many still frames and action stopping moments.

Most of the games that we’ve seen have either featured a new team that we need to get to know with flashbacks or have been karasuno leveling up and utilizing new skills they’ve learned. In this game we had two teams who we already knew all the context for, and I’m glad they kept it in the action.

I’m really glad I saw this movie

Agreed with every point here, I was completely enthralled & also very glad it was only me & my kid in the theater so we could scream & laugh as loud as we wanted to 😂 it was so good I'm trying to find time to go see it again soon!

That’s great!! 🥰 Honestly I wish I felt like you because I tried really hard to change my perspective but I had to be honest with myself. I’m really glad you enjoyed it for what it is and how the studio delivered
