The Art of Masahiro Sekita | Most Creative Volleyball Setter (HD) 

Bro same ! I’ve always commented that Japan’s setters are so underrated! Especially sekita, they both have elegant looking sets and theyre both so technically skilled.

Agreed

He should have gone to Shiratorizawa....that is why nobody talks about him

Well Sekitas setting brings the best out of nishida

Is he supposed to be one of the best players or something? I’m kind of new to watching volleyball bcs I’ve just finished haikyuu

It shows. Ishikawa and Sekita are synchronising beautifully.

So, Hinata n Kageyama 2.0?

Thx for the info

@@renatorojas8183 nope

Renato Rojas they the original😑

Not taking away from Sekita at all but blocking is 110% timing. I'm 5ft6 and I've blocked people 6ft6 before. I'm an outside so matchups are different obviously but that shit should not happen. like at all. Sekita's form and mid air hang time is so beautiful to watch. He's technically one of the most sound blockers out there. Just by watching him you can learn so much. You should look at hiroaki asano as well he's 5ft10 and hes the starting outside for the jtekt stings who won v league this season.

Its a nice sensation 😄😄. And im 5'5"

see him going as high as his MB?

@@aidangayadeen4186 I'm 5'6 too and I play as setter or opposite. I know how hard it is and you don't get as much credits if you're not very aggressive or flashy as a setter. Yes,I think Sekita and Sánchez(Argentina) deserves more credits. I saw a video on Sekita and me be like: finally...

@@anferneeleung694 no idea about setting i played middle for 2 years and im an outside now. Blocking is particularly important for a setter though. When I go pro Ik its going to be the hardest of the skills to get down properly

YAAAAS

I think haikyuu fans comment it in every volleyball videos lol .

HAHAHAHA

I was not expecting that comment when I clicked on the video

He is Oikawa, but in real life

A Kageyama perfomance

DON PISHARI

kageyama who

@@l0ve366 there's an anime about volleyball which is rlly famous....nd kageyama is a setter in tht anime

Atsumu is q u a c k i n g

I agree, this setter is very underrated but in reality he is one of the best

Haha! Nothing against Bruno. He's quite a genius but I'll never acknowledge setter dump as “genius". It's just one form of a attack. Setter's job is to fool the blockers

@@41dhir Micah Christenson : Hold my quick set from backrow.

i don't acknowledge bruno for his dump,the thing that makes me think bruno is the best setter is that as long as the ball is high,he can set it to any angle he wants

@@Luke-pr7mz yeah that's what setter needs to do. but making a setter dump attack is not an easy decision either. if you misread the situation and timing to do it, it will be a super easy to block or super easy to recieve attack, which is already wasting your chance to score and you as the setter will think, maybe it's better to use my spikers. but nonetheless, bruno still a god calibre setter.

Judging by your pfp you may have a thing for expert setters 0_0

Same

Yea, the sport deserves the recognition because it’s really fun, but as someone who plays volleyball for their school and is decent at the sport, it’s very frustrating when people compare the anime and the sport, they can’t just walk in the gym and expect to be good like in the anime(I’ve really seen this too, it’s hilarious and an embarrassment)

@@cheesymac6732 when people mention haikyuu in a context like this, i don’t think they mean to say that volleyball is easy. if anything, haikyuu shows that volleyball really takes a lot of hard work to get good at. haikyuu has made me appreciate the sport and all the hard work the players do a lot more. not to say you’re wrong. there are some people who are ignorant enough to compare real life to anime and i can see how it would be frustrating.

Swim free for swimming, Yowamushi Pedal for cycling and Food Wars for cooking. Anime’s that got me into those respective areas lol

@@cheesymac6732 Many sports animes cover loss, dedication and that "talent" or "being a genius" isn't enough. Some of my favorite sports characters were the underdogs and or plain characters. Like the clinch server in haikyuu or Ippo from Hajime no Ippo, one of the most famous sports mangas. It can be frustrating when people compare the two, sure. But also, the writer of Haikyuu used to play volleyball and has a passion for the sport. Now, if you've seen first hand, unathletic people, or overconfident people just thinking they can immediately be good, they're likely the minority. Most people are smart enough to understand that it isn't as easy as it looks. And it's an insult that you act like it's common.

@@cheesymac6732 I started watching volleyball after seeing the anime. Really interesting sport.

He crossed the line tho

@@nicholassiew5159 did it have anything to do w the jump?

@@nicholassiew5159 he never hit the net

​@@gmacphee7953 Ye i mean, it technically is not a violation unless 1. someone from opposing side accidentally lands on his legs, or 2. his leg completely crossed the line. But it is pretty dangerous for the opponents. I tore my acl because someone overstepped the centre line during his spike

@@gmacphee7953 we're talking bout jump

Shows that height helps, but it's not the only thing to win in VB :)

To Scott sterling?

@@khristianidica1463 yep

compare to marouf he's an amateur

It is impressive, though it is the kind of play that is planned beforehand

You should be. His skills are incredibly impressive. The way he assesses the situation on court and plays accordingly. He knows whom to set which ball to make it work. It's really awesome to watch. :) And that pararell to the middle - my fav. :)

If i were to compare him to a anime character. I'd say miya or kenma.

i wish that’s how it was

@@beanzzinc783 surprisingly, watching it does give you a head start, you just have to pay close attention. When I started playing I was shocked how much I already knew because of Haikyuu!

@@bacon6734 that’s a fat lie, everyone who has joined my school’s team, cuz of haikyuu, quit because it was too hard or they never played cuz it was too much work

@@cheesymac6732 bro why would I need to lie about it lol, some people just have more athletic ability than others. Though I won’t lie I suck at setting. I’ll probably stick with being a libero

@@bacon6734 well that won't help you. A libero should be good at setting and receiving. I'm pretty sure there was this one part where Noya played the role of a setter. So if you want to be a libero I recommend being a setter first. Its going to help you so much and I'm talking from experience. I also want to be a libero from the moment I learned what a libero was but my coach instead made me a setter and that helped me alot. Anyways I also think that haikyuu made me a "better" player. I started volleyball before haikyuu and when I watched the anime I loved it. It did taught me things pretty early on so yeah.

IKR! What a line shot!

Bruh you make me pissed

Volleyball is a sport it’s not only an anome

@@antondrasdo5321 i know that. i’m not dumb

@@antondrasdo5321 your English comprehension pisses me off

But the guy who tried to do a pancake 💀

i thought it was ''volleyball''

It means "one more point" in Japanese.

@@ichiko621 I know

Reminds me of Hinata in S1

it means one more

His form is amazing, the way his entire body turns in mid air is incredible

100th like

I wonder how many times people have hit over his block tho 😂

Haha 😂

LMAO

LOOKED FOR THIS COMMENT

@@Kidpunk98 the final match gave me goosebumps..how oikawa did that last set .. The lines from him " instinct is something you polish ..talent is something you make bloom'...AHHHH..DUDEE

@@wolfboi3962 bruh? Are you me? I literally watch the “Chance ball” video all the time. Goosebumps every time. And that quote is my all time favorite quote ever!

At least someone

Except he didn’t crash into those wallthings

he'll be scarier when he gets stronger on jump serve and add jump floater to be one of his secret weapon lol.

BRO UR AMAZING THANK YOU FOR RECONIZING HIS SKILLS (srry for bad english)

yes. imagine creating aces with serve speed less than 100 kmph

@@ravell.ananta5466 i bet he want to try overseas career. hopefully.

@@visualina he has jump float. His serve is the most variable in Japan.

Nishida is literally the little giant, there is no stopping this man when he gets in gear

Quick, yet far jump. What a beautiful scenery

If that was in an Anime-

I felt that spike

How his knee didn't explode on landing baffles me

Kageyama was 181.2. Sekita is only 175 cm tall. It makes him that much more impressive.

@@marikothecheetah9342 As an adult, Kageyama grows to 188 so all the more impressive from Sekita.

@@tommoolenaar3901 I missed that, thanks. Indeed :)

Nope he is akashi in real life bruno is kageyama in real life

@@boiii6798 for sure

quick set from outside the court. that one is difficult af

Nope its oikawa's set

A lot of Haikyuu moves are inspired from the Japanese national team so I wouldn't be surprised xD at 2:25 it is also very similiar to the synchronized attack from Karasuno, it's a genius move 😍

@@tinycharlie6694 not specifically Japan's Vball Team moves, but actually Volleyball moves and techniques in general. In a pro level Vball, variety of attacks like Pipe, Block out, and Synched Attack are common to use. Kinds of spikes like Deep Cut Shot or Straight Shot is also common. The only thing that rare to be seen is the Minus Tempo Quick and undeniably very hard to execute, because it needs super high accuracy for the setter.

@@ravell.ananta5466 True, of course they use Volleyball moves in general but I think they might focus on Japanese teams a little, since it takes place in Japan ^^ The Japanese team has a very unique style, like every team has, they are very quick and creative with their moves and everyone plays a pretty equal part while the Iranian team is pretty much guided by their setter (as an example) and I think this Japanese form to play is kind of shining through the anime xD (esp. Karasuno) I play volleyball myself so I am aware that block outs, and quick attacks are common moves

There's two of us :)

He doesn’t get enough credit. He is my second favorite setter. First being Micah Christenson

@@Simply_saikyo I like Christensen, too! He's really good.

@@Simply_saikyo yoooo Christenson's amazing too

Wasn't this the last shot hinata made with shiratorizawa

THE QUICK

How much does Haikyuu contribute to the spreading of volleyball is amazing...in any video I find Haikyuu-related comments

@@stefors8397 cause Haikyuu is good af lol I used to only care about volleyball in high school cause of the bitches watched Haikyuu and now I see this shit high key hard

Mouu ipoo!!!

How on earth did he pull that of?

your dont say incredible here you say *SUGOI*

@@Nipunnhaha we are all not an otaku (excluding me since I am)

I had to keep rewatching like Was that sound the ball or his chin??

@@jasmine9581 probably just the ball, hurts to watch every time tho

Haha

i think you should watched Japan vs Canada where Fujii was starting and Sekita was benched. You'll see a huge difference between them. Without Sekita, Japan's ofense was unable to flow and their spiker couldn't alter their full power.

@@ravell.ananta5466 It's mostly because they're used to Sekitas all the time setting. Nothing stops Sekita from setting.

当然です。

基本です。
