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.
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.
@@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
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
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
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.
@@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.
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. :)
Every time sekita does a set that looks like he's setting for the front and suddenly arched his back and sets to the back just gives me chills all over my body
@@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.
@@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
can't believe he even win a 1-on-1 against Clevenot, so satisfying watching Japan national team on tournaments. Great teamwork and excellent player. 1 respect from vietnam

It’s so fun watching something you actually understand. Thankful to have encountered Haikyu and taught me the things I need to know and watch closely when watching volleyball matches.
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 😍
@Ravel L. Ananta 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
@Ravel L. Ananta lol I'm very short (so I'm lucky if I even mange to get a proper block, I mostly soft block and try to stay out of the way of my middles lol ) Working on my jumping tho 😂 Same goes for attacking, I'm happy if I manage to hit the ball and get a decent amount of power behind it. Lucky for my team I'm a setter lmao
Finally! I'm truly glad to see that he is receiving the attention he deserves. Heck, he doesn't even have a Wikipedia page of his own ffs. He's right up there with Micah, Bruno and Marouf!
Wow.. his sets are so precise and quick. It doesn’t give the other side much time to predict where the spike is coming from. We also have to admire their team work. Since his sets are so quick all of the front row has to be read to attack.
The author of haikyuu is a volleyball player himself (MB as I rmb). He started drawing haikyuu because there were less and less male volleyball players in Japan. He wanted to get more young players to be interested in volleyball, and haikyuu successfully achieves this goal. So I would say haikyuu not only gets more people to watch volleyball (irl) but also contributes to the development of male volleyball.
Some of commenter call him 'little Sekita'. Yep, he is little with big heart and skills. I'm so glad you guys made a special video for him. He is one of the talented setters. I love how Ryujin Nippon's players on fire. 🔥
Setters are the engine of the team in volleyball; just like midfielder in soccer. Most of the times they are the ones who set scores and goals but unfortunately mostly underrated
haikyuu: takes 20 seconds to analyze the ball real life: *happens under 2 seconds* spikers in haikyuu: fall gracefully and land on their feet real life: *often fall*
Finally he got some recognition for his ability to set amazing balls for Japan's hitters to shine, really underrated setter
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
Fun fact: Sekita played on the same university team as Ishikawa and the same high school team as Yanagida.
It shows. Ishikawa and Sekita are synchronising beautifully.
So, Hinata n Kageyama 2.0?
Thx for the info
@@renatorojas8183 nope
