How was my first day back after a week or so PTO? Stressful. Well, not really. I just felt tired. I almost did not want to go to work. Definitely not happy to be back. But I need to pay the bills. So to work I went.

My hun and I finally got to hang out tonight! It was nice after not being able to when I was in SoCal. I had a good time. Although, I do have a headache now. We ended up finishing Haikyu!! season 3. And oh boy. Yeah. YEAH.

Haikyu!! The last three episodes of season three definitely had me on the edge of my seat. As my hun said, they did a good job expanding this 5-set game to 10 episodes. And there were no lulls the whole time. This season is the Tsukki arc for sure, hands down. His character development was top-notch. It took a while for him, but damn, this character arc was good. My hun cheered when Tsukki ran back to the court. One of my favorite panels, as well as my hun favorite panel, was when Hinata and Tsukki were being overpowered by Ushijima. Basically, the visual was Ushijima pushing Hinata and Tsukki down on the ground. As the other Karasuno team members helped to keep the ball up – Daichi, Asahi, and Ryu, the visual added them helping the first years push Ushijima off them. It was great. It was such a powerful representation that Karasuno is in fact a team working seamlessly, helping each other out. Well, the loss for Shiratorizawa was definitely an upset but I do not care. Their team was so boring to watch. The only animated player there was Tendo. Anyway, Karasuno is going to the Nationals.

Not that I watch sports anime in general, but if we end up watching some more of this genre in the future, Haikyu!! set the bar pretty high. I do have a feeling that we will have a hard time finding another sports anime that can keep us this invested.
