Ohhh, my babies, my poor, poor little babies, you did such a great job, my babies...*sobbing*

*sniffle* Okay but seriously, that was devastating. These guys did their best and I am SO DAMN PROUD OF THEM! And while the rest of the volume was pretty much just "stay or think about your future" drama, it's realistic to the situation and I'm glad it was there. And I loved the moments between Hinata and Kageyama after the match, those two are such opposites in terms of personality yet they know how to motivate each other and push them further. They have such a strong dynamic, even compared to other Shounen Jump protagonists.

Now that this arc is over, I'm curious to see what's happening next. While I love the action and team building, it would be nice to have some more calm, slice of life moments mixed in. No matter, I'm pumped no matter what, onto volume 9!
