Okay, so. I loved this volume. LOVE the match between Shiratorizawa and Karasuno. I love Tuskishima being the tall pillar of salt that he is, and I am LOVING his development through this match.

HOWEVER, I feel the need to bring up an issue that I've noticed for awhile but never really discussed, yet it was glaringly obvious in this volume. This series suffers from improper editing, usually just a name misspelled or incorrectly placed, normally not a big deal. However, in this volume, there were TWO instances where players were switched out and the WRONG TEAM NAME was written during the substitution. I know, I know, this isn't a super big deal and obviously based off of my star rating it didn't impact my overall feelings for the volume, but it is SUPER FUCKING DISTRACTING. And the fact that it happened twice, to me, shows that the editor in charge of this volume was not doing there job in catching such a glaring error twice.

That being said, this was still an incredible volume and I am LOVING the character development during this arc. First we had Yamaguchi, now we have Tsukishima, and who knows who else is going to get some. Another great volume in this arc, can't wait to see what happens next!

Karasuno is trying so hard.  It's admirable.
