I'm all for people hitting yams with the "long hair and a cool fashion sense" beam but my favorite timeskip flavor is lame office worker
#dont worry he still has his joy and whimsy#so what if the other first years are on TV every other week? Do they have their own cubicle? I didn't think so#I like to think about him casually dropping that he knows a good 80% of the Japan Olympic volleyball team during water cooler talk#his coworkers are like “What do you mean you know THE Hinata Shoyo” and he's like “Yeah i lost his shoes once"#yamaguchi tadashi#haikyuu#haikyuu!!#haikyuu fanart#hq#hq fanart#my art

behind the scenes sneak peek into my brain, i have so many drafts now of my thoughts on hinata and loneliness and obsession and greed and adhd that all feel incoherent that i just have to fuckin, sit on it and write an essay one of these days, but in short
i dont think its explored how deeply lonely Hinata was before karasuno, how unseen and misunderstood he felt until he became rivals with kageyama
and OUGH its the way kageyama respects hinatas *greed* so much, cherishes it, even though at one point it scared him, its scared him but it pushed him to be more and he has his OWN greed that hinata relates to and wants to see flourish and they are both creatures of want and so they understand each other like no one else has understood them before and
how freeing is that? right??? this wasnt short i started rambling again augh but are u catching my drift are u seeing what i am seeing????????
#hinata shouyou#hq!!#look i have peer reviewed adhd#and i relate and maybe projecting onto Hinata rn#bc MAN my hyperfixations as a kid were OBSESSIVE#one time my brother said i wasnt even human bc all i talked about was [cherished media]#it hurt!! i felt isolated from a lotta ppl#bc i cared SO MUCH#about these things and i couldn't help talking about it#like it felt like bubbling over joy that i wanted to share but tpo u know? i didn't always get that#and that feels a Lot like how i read hinatas middle school volleyball#that make any sense??#conspiracy lvl: text

hey guys. tumblr user thawthebeez back at it again with yet another haikyuu essay B) the topic of today is one that i see NOBODY talking about which is crazy because this motif is (in my opinion) one of the main foundations of the kagehina community.
now may someone please explain to me why the HELL nobody ever talks about how whenever Tobio expresses an insecurity of ANY KIND, Hinata is ALWAYS the first one to swoop in and tell him not to worry about it?
yes, we've all established that Hinata Shouyou is the #1 Kageyama Tobio understander. we get that. BUT THIS IS ONE OF THE MAIN DISPLAYS OF THAT AND I'VE SEEN LITERALLY NOBODY SPEAK OF IT EVER.
i'm pretty sure there's an instance of it in season 2 (either that or my brain just made it up) when Tobio is a little worried about his and Hinata's quick attack not really working out but Hinata tells him "nah you'll figure it out eventually" or something along those lines. i'm not going to lose my shit over it because i can't find it but if you know YOU KNOW.
a part that i COULD find from season 2, however, was this:
here we have Tobio explaining how talented of a setter Oikawa is- how he's so much better than him- and it's clear that this is something he's insecure about given his facial expression.
THEN we have Hinata's INSTANT response:
and it blows Tobio away because WHAT
because, to paraphrase a little, Tobio basically just said "yeah oikawa can make any spiker look good no matter what team he's on" to which Hinata replied "yeah but that team wouldn't be Karasuno" which is essentially "Karasuno is strong enough as it is" BUT- if ur crazy- " dw he wouldn't take your spot babe" (<- which probably isn't how it's meant to be interpreted because they just finished talking about The Team That's Stronger As Six thing so like... context clues. it's probably not the insane interpretation).
ANYWAYS boom there it is. Tobio expresses insecurity, Shouyou swoops in and goes "Ermmmm Actuallyyyyy🤓" WHICH IS SO FUCKING ENDEARING ON IT'S OWN BUT THE FACT THAT IT HAPPENS MORE THAN ONCE AND AT SUCH A CRITICAL POINT TOO
the critical point in question being:
(context: Tobio just came back from his training camp in Tokyo and is a little frustrated because he's gotten so used to playing with other prodigies like himself so to go back to talented-but-not-prodigious players is a bit of a switch for him. don't get him wrong tho he loves this team to DEATH it's just a little different that's all. hashtag number one Tobio apologist right here)
SO THERE'S THIS! and it goes without saying that Tobio is DEEPLY insecure about his late middle-school days and being referred to as a king. Tsukishima adds a little salt to the wound and while I didn't take a screenshot of it Tobio makes this look of absolute HORROR after he says what he says
(which, side note, shows a lot of a character development within Tobio. especially since I've been flipping between season 2 and 4 a lot looking for these clips. Tobio didn't even notice when he was acting kingly before but he realizes it INSTANTLY now which is so so so good for him yayyyy character development!)
this also leads fantastically into my next tangent which is
TOBIO FUCKING APOLOGIZES!
now, admittedly this isn't entirely related to my thesis but i absolutely ADORE talking about this scene and i genuinely think it is one of the most prevalent displays of character development within Tobio because i feel like he tends to get overshadowed by all the other characters (especially Hinata, which i'm not upset about in the slightest like it makes perfect sense and if Tobio got all the attention all the time the show would be soooo unbalanced)
but I feel like a lot of people skip over Tobio's overall development over the course of the show. I mean compare s1 Tobio to s4 Tobio THAT IS NOT SAME PERSON ANYMORE. he grows so much over such a short period of time (which is another essay I could write. something along the lines of "Explaining Why Tobio And Shouyou Need To Be On Separate Teams Actually Because Character Development Purposes" because the amount of people i've seen on tiktok complaining about kghn being on separate teams and how they should just be on the same team forever makes my blood boil violently) and it's so refreshing to see Tobio's growth especially as a big Tobio enjoyer.
ANYWAYS back to the main thesis.
So Hinata steps in IMMEDIATELY here. literally cuts Tobio's apology off because HE HAS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR. he was expressing his thoughts whatever that's fine he could have done it in a nicer way SURE but listen the guy still has a LOOOONNNGGGG way to go but still, nothing to apologize for. it's just growing pains, y'know?
now the quote "What's wrong with him being the King again?" appearing here isn't the first time we're seeing this. Hinata has ALWAYS been confused as to why calling Tobio a "King" is a bad thing. literally from day fucking one Hinata was like "nah dude I think that title is cool" WHICH, AGAIN, TOBIO BEING INSECURE ABOUT SOMETHING AND SHOUYOU REASSURING HIM THAT IT'S TOTALLY CHILL HELLO?????
LITERALLY FROM DAY ONE SHOUYOU HAS BEEN DOING THIS. THAT MAN MAY THINK TOBIO'S AN ASSHOLE SOMETIMES (and he kinda is) BUT NEVER WILL HINATA INHERENTLY HATE A PART OF HIM. and i don't think they realize it here nor do i think the realization comes soon after but at some point there will be the realization that they love each other. every single part. fucking Tobio probably realized it way back in junior high but that's a tangent for another time.
now this line.... this one right here...... oh my god i can be SO NORMAL ABOUT IT.
the main reason why Tobio had this look of HORROR on his face after he yelled at everyone was BECAUSE HE KNEW THE ENDING. he knew that yelling at them would have consequences (if it weren't for Hinata stepping in thank god). HE'S SEEN IT ALL BEFORE. in his final year of junior high he yelled at his teammates to run faster and jump higher and be better AND THEY LEFT HIM!!!
so Tobio yelling like this instantly makes him afraid that he's just ruined the entire balance of the team. he thinks he's going to be left behind again because he yelled and everyone is going to leave him BUT!!!!!
BUT SHOUYOU IMMEDIATELY JUMPS IN AND SAYS "idc what u say honestly if i don't like i'm just not gonna listen" OR, TO TRANSLATE "i'm not going anywhere regardless of what you say"
Tobio's biggest fear is losing this team. I literally do not need to explain why. that man would fucking DIE for this team (if you really need an explanation just to go the end of the Kamomedai match when Tobio admits that he's upset they lost because he wanted to play with that specific team more).
and for Hinata to essentially say "you could literally be as kingly as u want and i simply would not care, pal, i promise you i am NOT going ANYWHERE!!!" which has got to be SO FUCKING RELIEVING FOR TOBIO.
(also something something "nobody was there" / "i'm here" something something "doesn't matter what kind of toss goes up if you send it my way i'm hitting it" something something they're soulmates or whatever they are literally bound together by the universe they were destined to be together and it's a crime that universe kept them apart for so long and now that they're together they will always BE together two peas in a pod literally inseparable they are hot glued and duct taped together.)
and then there's this. i mean at this point you already know what i'm going to say like you get it by now but again IT MUST BE SO RELIEVING TO TOBIO to know that shouyou thinks his biggest insecurity is cool. that shouyou thinks that it's not something to be concerned about. that no matter what, no matter how much a King he is, they're not going anywhere.
SOMETHING SOMETHING "you drew stars around my scars" IF YOU EVEN CARE
and just the fact that it's always ALWAYS shouyou to do this. the fact that there was dead silence before shouyou spoke up. the fact that it's ALWAYS HIM there to understand Tobio (someone who has been misunderstood for as long as he can remember) GOD THEY DRIVE ME INSANE.
anyways thank you for being a witness to this madness👍
#i know kagehina day was like 3 days ago LISTEN#i'll be there on hinakage day i promise#but again the fact that this is not as commonly talked about as it is is WILD to me#also the “Hinata and Kageyama need to be on separate teams actually” is an essay i think i will genuinely write at some point#just one more tiktok of people saying “noooo the boyfriendsss they need to be on the same team” and i'll do it i'll fucking do it#THEY CAN BE BOYFRIENDS AND BE ON DIFFERENT TEAMS PLEASE UNDERSTAND!!!!!!!!!1#they needed to be on different teams in junior high for obvious plot reasons#they needed to be on the same team in high school for character development reasons#and they NEED to be in different teams going forward so they can continue to motivate one another#THEY ARE EACH OTHER'S GREATEST MOTIVATORS#there is nothing they love more than playing against one another like did you SEE the adlers v. jackals match HELLO#even when the adler's were LOSING tobio looked like he was having the TIME OF HIS LIFE#and you could tell that Hinata loved it too. not just because he was finally making up on that “i'm gonna beat u one day” promise#if they end up the same team forever they will just never feel that joy THEY NEED TO BE ON DIFFERENT SIDES OF THE NET I PROMISE#a net is not enough to stop a red string of fate#anyways#volleyball guys#wahoo another essay for the haikyuu tag!

sorry for who I’m going to become tomorrow
#going to see the haikyuu movie in theaters on release day#listen am I getting close to 30? yes. have I been watching this show since high school? also yes#during my total rewatch this month in prep for said movie did I openly weep real tears and holler at the same scenes I did when I was 17?#ALSO YES#there’s just Something About It that triggers a very specific set of emotions in me#rip to everyone who never played competitive team sports but there’s no way I can explain the secret jock emotions that come from it#and this damn show somehow captures it perfectly#anyway. this is a heads up for the deluge of anime gifs of high schoolers playing volleyball I’m going to put on ur dashes tmrw#we are finding joy where we can#hq#blue speaks

mario & sonic at the olympic games is genuinely the greatest thing on earth i hope they never stop making them
#nothing brings me greater joy than seeing mario and sonic characters compete in ridiculous events together#how did they even fucking think of this shit dawg its so unserious i love it so much#yes of course i'd love to watch sonic and eggman play volleyball against silver and luigi. do you even have to ask#serena.txt#also fun tidbit for the longest time as a kid i only knew vector as the guy from mario & sonic 2012#for some reason i heavily associate him with the big trampoline event idk why#i always liked playing as blaze as a kid cause i liked her design. i knew nothing about her#nor basically any of the other characters because i had only ever played colors. so it was my introduction to a lot of them#which is funny to me

natsu sends a photo of her first jersey on a professional team to shoyo, saying that he's the first to see it as it was shoyo who taught her how to fly.
"this jersey is my new wings, nii-chan," she announces cheerfully, the red fabric of the uniform matching her ginger curls. "now we can keep flying together!!"
needless to say, shoyo turns into a sobbing mess as he congratulates his lil sis, trying to blink his tears away. he never felt so proud before 🧡
#haikyuu!!#hinata shoyo#hinata natsu#hinata siblings world domination!!!!#headcanons#hinata natsu professional volleyball player#hinata shoyo best big bro ever!!!#theyre my pride and joy#haikyuu manga#haruichi furudate#aaaaaaaaaa#🧡

#she bork#tbd#i've been crying for like an hour while my bf is like 'no no no calm down it's okay!!!!' and all bc i watched vids about baseball on tiktok#and started thinking about how i wish i could've played softball bc i think i would've been good at it but my dad said no and then i started#thinking about how i miss playing sports (volleyball) and then i started thinking about how my life has so little excitement and joy bc all#i do is work full-time. like idk i'll get over it (again lmfao bc this is a recurring breakdown for me) but i'm just sad. whatever. gonna#get my words in for the day and maybe that'll make the stormclouds fuck off#AND ANOTHER LAYER TO THIS: being disabled at 22. i feel like by the time i retire and theoretically have the time and money to do what i#enjoy (if that's even possible in this fucking capitalistic hellscape) i will not be physically able to do so. like if my body is in such#poor condition in my early 20s how the fuck am i gonna be able to do ANYTHING in my 60s???? i'm not. hopeless hopeless hopeless

I drew this back in Feb 2020. I'd been ready to join a volleyball league that summer but it got canceled due to covid. I have not played volleyball since, until last night, three years later. Turns out, the joy I found in volleyball in 2020 is still there in 2023. So I figured it's time to bring this back, and maybe one day there'll be more.
#art#i once described volleyball as the best thing i ever did for myself#over the years I lost that feeling and wondered if maybe i had been exaggerating#but after last night i remember why i said that#sometimes the world gently reminds me i am capable of feeling true joy over simple things#and turns out i still feel that when i play volleyball#even after all this time#mart

I want to play volleyball so bad. I want to play but I don't think I'm at a level where I can fully enjoy it yet. I need to get stronger and better at it, but I have to go through the acceptance of sucking at it first. Also I'm a little scared because of how small I am for that sport, and I don't want to face the fact.
There's a few exercises I could do on my own to try and get better but I don't know if I'm doing it right, with the right position and the right move. But I want to. I want to get stronger, I want to be a better player and fully enjoy it. Lately, the few times I've played it feels more like I'm reacting to it, like I'm spending all my enthusiasm and adrenaline in it. I try to keep a few core things I've learned in mind to play better but I still rely so much on instincts and my love for the sport to give me enough stamina to keep going. Building strength and stamina takes a long time though...I hope I'll get a little better before september when the new season starts.
#I want to contact the few clubs I've been told about#but I'm so scared of refusal that I'm petrified before even sending one message#I feel selfish doing it but i don't want to lose that possibility because I KNOW that I need a coach to learn and if I just go in a#leisure session it'll be almost only matches and no time to learn or understand how to get better#well...at least it'll be volleyball so I should be grateful#I just want...more. I want so much more from this sport because I know it can give it to me. Even more adrenaline and satisfaction and joy#idk I've rarely felt so selfish about something
