5/15/23 “For today…you happen to be the defeated. But what will you become tomorrow?” Furudate must’ve been waiting YEARS to come through with all these quotes in this volume. Truly a rollercoaster from the end of nationals, the end of them all in high school, to Hinata taking on the beach in Rio.

-I will cherish and protect Kenma til the day I die for what he did for Hinata this volume (and also bc I love Kenma)
-“But..I wanted to take this team further”
-“Getting you for our adviser, Coach Takeda…was the biggest stroke of luck we had this entire year.”
-“Don’t try to surpass your limits. Work to push those limits higher.”
-Coach Washijo (even though I still don’t like him) setting Hinata up with contacts for beach volleyball
-Hinata having “He who would climb the ladder must begin at the bottom” framed in his room
-Hinata and Oikawa—need I say more?
