I am a daichi fan. I do play volleyball and my role has been like daichi, not flashy, not a genius, no extreme talent, just good all round game, solid received and assigned team motivator.
Imagine if Tsukishima went all out during games and practices and gave his 💯....he'll probably be one of the best blockers (and maybe spikers) in the series!
in episode 3 when his eyes move to where Hinata was aiming, that was terrifying, shows you he doesn't just have good intuition, his reaction time is crazy
There was a game where Tsukki kept the rally with "one touch" for quite a while, anyone remembers when it was? That was so good! I love his growth among them all I think.
Let's analyze 0:45. Kageyama has a good receive and therefore full attack options through positions 6, 4, 3 and 2, also taking into account a dump. Tendo guesses 3 correctly (his timing would be messed up for any other attack). That's already has than a 1/5 chance of happening assuming equal distribution of sets, but this is not the case. Most sets go to 4 and 2, lowering even more the chance of an attack through the center. But let's assume equal distribution for the sake of it. He then predicts hinata's direction change, a 50/50. All combined makes the play he predicted well under 10% probability of happening. So in summary, his gamble had around a 95% to fail, but through reading the slight changes in body language of both players for a split second, he chooses the correct option. A monster, indeed.
