Volleyball Couple Reaction to Haikyu!! S1E1: "The End And The Beginning" 

oh, now sarah gets to experience the "oh, just you wait" moments we have

Adam seeing 13 year old Kageyama acting like a maniac and immediately thinking “ah yes, reminds me of my wife.” Is top tier comedy.

"He's too dramatic for a team sport" "Oh my gosh adam dont ruin it" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Love that Sarah realized she is a matured Kageyama who married a matured Hinata (Adam) lol. And it’s so funny watching Sarah guarding spoilers with such ferocity. Appreciate it Sarah! I’m sure you’ll enjoy a second watch too, so I highly encourage you to bully Adam into more reactions. Can’t wait for the next one.

Okay now that you're rewatching too can I just say how much I love Kageyamas "what have you been doing for the last three years?" because it hits SO different on a watch compared to first time? First time hearing it you go "wow, what an asshole, we can't all be on big teams Bakageyama" On the rewatches you go "Ooooh this is Kageyama for 'you're too good to have been hiding, where have you been all my life?'"

Sarah went from non anime watcher to dragging more people into watching Haikyuu this is the character development arc I'm here for 😂

Okay Adams dynamic with you and having his thoughts as a coach is incredible, we need the full series rewatched with him PLEASE

Now sarah gets to play the “spoiler game”. Lets see how long she can keep from spoiling adam😂

“This is gonna be like a 25-8 shellacking” holy crap Adam is psychic. Great idea to have Adam join you Sarah, this was so much fun!!

"I was under the impresion i had no choice", this man already knows.

I would like to invite Adam to keep digging on Sarah's past lmaoo. Who would have thought she was a Kageyama as a child??

I loved loved loved this reaction so much. Seeing Sarah rewatch Haikyuu with the perspective of the whole show is great. Seeing her watch Adam’s reaction and bring him into the world of Haikyuu is great. Seeing their dynamic as a couple is great. Seeing Adam expose parts of Sarah we wouldn’t know is great. Everything about this is great.

Honestly, since Sarah first reaction, I hadn’t seen any similarity between Sarah and Kageyama, but when Sarah said ‘You should have been more outraged’, isn’t that parallel to ‘’come in faster for the quick” by Kageyama 😂 and don’t you remember when Sarah did Kageyama’s look in Ep 3 😂 DAMN. The moment Sarah described Hinata’s jump though, so cute!

I love Adam's honest and direct approach to his opinions. As for your identity crisis, remember that you are a lefty. That is closer to your identity.

I like how Adam just nailed the entire show's progress with his coaching insights. 😂😂 This is great. My week has been significantly improved. Thank you Sarah and Adam so much!

I feel like people that claim that are that not that expressive are the best sometimes if they end up showing emotion at some point because you know is genuine. So yeah. Also, Sarah is going to become the: ''um, actually'' person this time

*Affectionately:* “I’m a nerd at heart” *Defensively:* “Not that anime lovers are nerdy!” I feel like a lot of guys know what Adam was thinking in that moment 😂 I love your banter together! _That’s.. not what I said_ 🙃

Sarah's content has always been great, but this is somehow SO much cooler and engaging than what I imagined when I just read the title of the video!! It's so fun to see Sarah sitting there grinning and just barely holding back at some points, and Adam's commentary complements hers so well it's amazing; he also clearly reads the characters pretty well, and some of his insights are Very spot-on, so I'd 100% be down for you two covering the whole series again if you're feeling up to it!! One thing I would maybe suggest is, because Haikyuu has a really high rewatch value and you will be able to see so many setups and details in a new light (already knowing what happens next), should you have anything to say that'd be spoilers for Adam, maybe record it in a small separate section by yourself, if it's not too much trouble? Either way, thanks for trying this out, very excited for whatever comes next!! Oh, and I just noticed this, but "this guy overwhelms me" in Kageyama's thoughts isn't quite accurate lol - he's actually talking how he had trouble following Hinata even just with his eyes, highlighting how fast he was in that last play.

Sarah is now the youtube comments 😂 Adam seems to pickup the details easily, Im sure he'll get invested just like we did eventually. Fun combo

The initial insights from Adam were so on point, understanding the perspective of the storyteller in balancing the two concepts of Hinata & Kageyama. It would be fun for him to go on the Haikyuu journey & also Sarah rewatching the whole thing with a new light. I hope they do the whole series, it will also give me my Haikyuu fix for a while😅

The dynamic between them is off the charts. They compliment each other so perfectly.

Quick correction- junior high in Japan is 7-9th grade, so the boys are going into 10th grade! Also, the fact that the intro was made kinda signals to me that Sarah convinced him to do the whole thing lol

IDK WHY I’M SMILING EAR TO EAR WATCHING THIS LOVELY COUPLE UGH ❤

Seeing Sarah's enthusiasm for Adam's reaction to scenes is so wholesome and cute. Your banter makes me laugh so much when you tease each other too. 😆

OMG! This is going to be great and I feels there going to be alot of Sarah going "well we don't know" and Adam saying " I heard you scream about this like a year ago"

the aggressive affection between you guys is so cute and funny HAHAH soooo excited for this series!!

We've already learned from Coach Donny that rewatches of Haikyuu absolutely work. Love the idea of you seeing the show again and being able to notice more details - and bringing in Adam will be so much fun! I hope he ends up enjoying the show as much as you do, Sarah. Looking forward to the next part! ☺️

I was getting sentimental as Sarah finished S4 but who would know this happened.

This is exciting! We get to rewatch haikyu again and this time Sarah will be the one holding back from saying things hahaha she’s with us now. I love Adam’s predictions. I wonder what how he will react towards a certain blonde middle blocker in the team 🤣🤣🤣 can’t wait.

Loved seeing Adam’s reaction to HQ! But even more than that, I love how you get the chance to watch it all over again from a different perspective. It’s so funny to see your frustration when Adam doesn’t necessarily react the way you thinks he should 😂😂

Oh shoooot! So excited for Adam to see this. I'm actually so curious how the experience will be for him - what things will be similar, what things will be different, what characters he'll love and hate... This is gonna be so fun ❤

I mean I’ve rewatched this show like 4 times, why not 5 times lol :)

This was actually very funny watching you both Adam reacting to Haikyuu and Sarah trying to spoil anything it was great please continue

This was so fun to watch! Adam's read on this is very different from Sarah and I'd honestly love to see how he'd approach Karasuno's issues as a coach. Really hope y'all keep doin these

I can't believe we get to experience this all over again with you guys 😄

What i love about this new reaction is we get new “eyes” i think and interpretations and it’s so much fun to hear and listen. And Adam is a good reactor too!

LOL I love the interactions between Sarah & Adam. This is so great!

Omg please watch the whole thing together 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

OMG i can't wait for the rest of these reactions, to see someone who's actually coached volleyball for nearly a decade? react to all the different coaches and what they say and do will be SUPER HYPE to see

I LOVE this! Please do the whole show with Adam!

Absolutely the opposite of a failure. I didn't think it could get better than watching Sarah react but adding in Adam is a game changer. Please please please get him to watch more.

This is legit my 7th time watching and i got chills and teary eyes the moment Hinata started talking at the start of the episode. Looking forward to this sm❤

Thats what makes this series so good in terms of writing. Even on a rewatch, the feelings are still there, in addition to the anticipation of what they become later on. I love this show so damn much

I actually love this dynamic between the two of you. I'm really excited to see Adam's analysis of the characters and how it differs from Sarah's perspectives.

Because I'm so incredibly obsessed with this show...if you rewatched this whole series with Adam I would ABSOLUTELY be along for the ride. Thanks so much for finding the time to do these Sarah, seeing a video from you always brightens my day

I love how you’re clearly fangirling about Haikyuu all over Adam. Like you couldn’t hide the feelings. It got me to feel excited with you too. It’s such a nice feeling introducing a story we love to someone new, can’t help feeling full of hope to see them taking a like on it too.

"ok he's talking too much now" Omg I literally died laughing 😂

My wife got me into Haikyuu as well. She blitzed the first two seasons (which was all that was out at the time) while on maternity leave. I remember sitting at the table marking books and hearing the roars coming from the laptop. I assumed she was watching some sort of nuclear war based on the dramatic noises and music. Then she explained that she was watching an anime about a sport that she'd never played. It took me another couple of years before I gave it a try. Now it's one of my favourite things ever.

Wow the first 1 minutes into the video and I, a grown ass man, am weeping a little at the love I'm seeing. Between the gentle teasing about him being quiet and then Sarah's look of quiet admiration as he starts to speak up about his volleyball experience. It's an arc in and of itself lol. Can't wait to finish the video and I'm so excited to go through this journey again with the two of you! Big respect to Adam for getting Infront of the camera and putting himself out there! Not an easy feat. Power couple vibes 🏐🏐🏐 "I wasn't bouncy..." *Sarah glares menacingly* Lmao this reaction is making my day ❤️

The passion never ends ^^. It's gonna be so fun to watch Sarah doing faces that mean "I know what's coming but you don't". The best part is, if they continue t hey might discover season 5 together when it'll be released

I am so ready for a rewatch of the series with Mr Coach 🔥

I have already watched/read haikyuu like 12 times…one more isn’t going to hurt😂 I played boys Vball in highschool for 4 years and then beach on and off recreationally ever since, so this show hits me everytime. Based on Adam’s input I can tell he’s one of my people haha. Would love to see more of these!

You two are a joy to watch! And Sarah, I really enjoy how much you try not to spoil him while still elaborating and explaining things that are difficult to pick up on on the first watch. Would love to see more of that!

YES MORE PLEASE! Getting Adam’s fresh take along with Sarah’s second viewing … I didn’t know I needed this in my life until just now.

I've seen haikyuu 10+ times, easily my favorite series. One of my favorite things to do is to watch athletes (especially volleyball players) react to it. And I'm sure a majority of haikyuu fans will agree. Great reactions!

Adam's interpretation of young Kageyama's behavior made me tear up. I agree with rewatching being just as enjoyable as the first time since the hype doesn't die.

THIS WAS SO GOOD I HOPE YOU GUYS DO THE WHOLE SERIES PLEASE !!!!

sarah getting mad at adam for not having a bigge reaction was so cute lmaooo you guys are so perfect for each other

it must feel so good to see all those little snippets of our karasuno players without their faces and now understand so much more LOL

yooooooo this is so cool! What a great idea! Edit: also I’m excited for Sarah to catch things she might’ve missed on a 2nd watch through.

this is soooo cute! thanks for re-reacting to this with Adam Sarah!!!!🤩🙏🫡

Just some general info about Japanese education system and school year that I've learned over the year: Elementary school: 1st - 6th grade Middle school: 7-9th grade High school: 10-12th grade Also, only children who fully turn 6 before the school year starts would start first grade that year, the rest would have to wait for next year. So we have Tanaka, Hinata and Kageyama all born in 1996 but Tanaka is one grade older because he was born in March (Hinata in June and Kageyama in December). School year calendar: First semester: April - July Summer vacation Second semester: August - December Winter break Third semester: January - March InterHigh tournament is usually held in July/August and for a lot of sports, not just volleyball. Spring Tournament (or Harukou) is held in January (It used to be in March but got moved up to January).

The way Adam threw Sarah under the bus at 26:54 was hilarious!

I like it. Thank you so much for watching it with us. Now we got Sarah experience being us. Love to do this all season again!

5:10 I'm having flash backs w/ sarah predicting the episode based on titles 😂😂

Sarah having an identity crisis gave me life 😂

Okay. This is super cute haha. Sarah, we love you! Edit: also I REALLY hope you and Adam make it to season three on a rewatch because I am extremely interested to see his reaction to one of the big moments in that season. Especially considering he seems to be less emotionally reactive and more analytical.

I'm actually really excited to get the perspective of someone who's primarily done coaching for the past decade or so, especially when it comes to Coach Ukai, his approach and mindset. Aaaahhhhhhhhhhh I hope we get another full watchthrough with Adam!!! This was great!!

I need 12 hours of them watching the entire season now. Greetings from Argentina

This is great! Keep it going. There is a great dynamic and you guys comes across relaxed. The bantering is entertaining and brings a smile to my face. Looking forward to episode 2 to see Adam take on it and how Sarah reacts to it again.

I'm so glad that the Haikyuu love is spreading :D I've watched and read through this series on my own and with others a dozen times at this point, and i still love it dearly. Hope that Adam would love it just as much as we all do, and that you'll enjoy your second lap too :D

This video was so much fun. You need to keep this going! It's aways nice to see other perspective, even better if he has a different perception about it. More serious and analytic. Please, give us more! Haha

This was fun to watch and I’m curious to see Adam’s thoughts/reactions to more future episodes.

This is really exciting!! Hello Adam and welcome! Don't worry about things like you might not give big reactions or that you don't react to something a certain way, just to let you know that your genuine thoughts and insights are just as good for us 😊 I also want to say that I got water in my nose when Sarah was having her identity crisis 😂😂 so funny!

You're both so adorable. I love this rewatch for Sarah and Adam now being new to this too. Please keep this series up.

ahh i luv this. happy to see sarah sharing her love for haikyuu. u both look so great, amazing couple

Lol I love this dynamic duo between y’all both man I can’t wait to see more I think Adams nonchalant and laid back reaction is perfect and I do love the literal vibe

I enjoyed their conversation very much! Please continue this by all means! I will definitely be watching it.❤

The tears in the end, from Hinata. They come from getting down of an adrenaline high, combined with the loss, of his very first and only game played. He has worked 3 years , in frustration over , not being seen or heard... so therefore the tears. I would say that it's a feeling of helplessness, being one little person, in this big big machine called wollyball world.

Sarah's expressions during this second watch were amazing! I'm glad that she loves Haikyuu that much

I love rewatching haikyuu. Makes the first few episodes way more emotional than watching it the first time.

Oh YASS I didn't think we'd get a rewatch of Haikyuu but I'm clearly not complaining. I hope you can watch all the episodes until the movie comes out, this is great.

OMG, I love this content so much! I didn’t know I would love your reaction even more, but now I did lol And I scream TEN, TEN, MAKE EVERY REACTION VDO POSSIBLE.

I'm here for it. I love Haikyuu. Watched all seasons multiple times, and read the manga from beginning until the end (so basically a lot of unreleased content compared to the anime). I love to see people get into the Haikyuu world (anime and manga). It's an encyclopedia for Volleyball. edit: Also, since Adam is more analytical (as you guys mentioned in this video), he'll appreciate all the technical details this series has: The serves, the blocks, the sets, the receives (the receive techniques), the exercises, the tempos of the approaching hitters, the timing for sets and blocks, the synchronization of blockers and receivers, the observation of the court, the mindsets, etc. There is so much in this anime. This series was written by someone who played Volleyball in his youth himself, and he wrote this detailed Volleyball encyclopedia in manga form, and then adapted to anime form. In Japan, Haikyuu, single-handedly boosted the interest of young kids in Volleyball, and the enrollment rate for Volleyball at schools rose to some crazy amount. There's a Japanese media company called NHK, which did a documentary on how much Haikyuu had an impact on kids [specifically boys in their data] to join Volleyball clubs. Since 2012 (the release of the manga, and Volleyball interest was actually on decline before 2012) when enrollment was at 36000 in Japan, the interest started to grow exponentially. In 2016 44000 Highschool boys at Japanese schools were enrolled in Volleyball clubs. If you watch Highschool Volleyball games of Japanese boys teams on RU-vid, it's crazy how technical they are. They all watched Haikyuu. You can tell, because almost all of them do the "split step" on receives. LOL That's something you don't even see professional teams use on the world stage (Brazil, Iran, Italy, China, etc.) None of them do it. Japanese Highschool teams do it, and the Japanese national team does it more often than not. Same goes for the "cross-receive" (opponent serves, and on your team one player receives the ball, and a second teammate is tailing behind him in the opposite direction - like a cross - to receive the ball as well should the first receiver fail, it's a safety). You see cross-receives in Japanese Highschool videos and Japanese national team games all the time. I haven't noticed if other countries do it too, and I've watched a lot of international games on RU-vid. I just see Japan do it all the time...and that's a Japanese Volleyball Style thing...which is also depicted in Haikyuu. Haikyuu is an encyclopedia for Volleyball. It's also not a story about one protagonist, but a story told from different perspectives (different characters and different teams), and it's ultimately more so about the sport Volleyball itself. It's so detailed. Since Adam is teaching kids Volleyball himself, he's probably aware of all sorts of techniques to teach. Maybe he can take a couple good ones from Haikyuu too. This series might appeal to him as a trainer.

I’M SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS REACTION?! OMG YOU GUYS ARE SO CUTE

Yess. I have been watching Haikyu!! Non-stop since the movies are about to come out. And this is the show that I can re-watch and re-watch to whatever point, arc, episode and will never got bored.

Wait... are we doing this!? OMG It's happening guys... omg omg

OMG. I love your dynamic and reactions soooooooo much! Please rewatch it until the very end together!

Rewatching Haikyuu is an integral part of the Haikyuu experience and it just gets better every time. It's why we watch you and it's why everyone will gladly watch you rewatch it haha. Fantastic episode I am in for the full rewatch with Adam :)

YES! I'm so excited that we get another chance to watch Haikyu again w/ Sarah lol

I cannot express how much I genuinely enjoyed this reaction, I absolutely loved you two pausing and discussing, expressing your opinions and thoughts on things, it felt like you (Adam) were getting a deeper understanding of the plot than just watching the episode, calling it a day and not actually understanding what is happening, which is where Sarah's experience of already knowing what is going on comes in handy 😄 I am so so excited for the next reaction I can't wait 🤞

I love how different Adam's reactions are, hope you can keep roping him into this for more episodes!

Wow! Didn't expect this!!!. When Sarah finished her Season4 reaction, I was planning to watch another reactor, but! I didn't know I need this! Your grin is my grin when you first reacted to this episode! Also, you're so cute together!!!

Ah, well guess I'm rewatching haikyuu for the 1 millionth time haha. Excited for this series!!

You guys make the perfect duo we need more episodes of this!!!!

I love the whole new perspective your back and forth brings. If you guys enjoy doing them, I'm here for the ride. On a side note: Cutest. Couple. Ever. That is all! 😂

Wow, the series we didn't know we needed! Can't wait for more of this 😊

this was brilliant! we are gonna need a daily couple's reaction to haikyuu now Sarah, thank you!

You guys are hilarious together, guess I'm watching people react to this again. Lol.

The smile that comes across Sarah’s face at 6:49 because she knows what’s about to happen for Hinata and then Adam’s smile appearing shortly after is SO wholesome! This was a GREAT reaction episode!
