Hey guys! Thanks for watching! Quick question: do you all notice any difference in the sound? I am using a microphone but it was the first time trying it. I’m not sure if it’s any better. Let me know please under this comment! Thanks!
Sound was good. I could hear what sounds like wind in the background. Trade winds must be blowing pretty well.
Ok ok thanks! I’ll try figure out the wind.
Is good to me
Sounds mostly clear to me
Hi erik. I've just subs to you're channel. I'm from jakarta Indonesia. I like you're videos because you speak not so fast and I can understand the vocabs. I will wait an watch the new posts. Sorry if my english is not good. 🥰
i really love how erik appreciates how yanagida plays. masa is really a good player. looking forward to see him in court playing for the national team once again with yuki, yuji, and ran. 🥺
I really love yanagida's form when serving then he rips the ball hard
Yes. His form is just elegant
Yeah the match 2-3 to Moscow DO was very unlucky but you guys had given everything for sure. Good luck in the VNL with the national team!
it was very difficult but basically we had to win 3-0 to advance to the semifinals so we gave everything we could
@@ErikShojivolleyball it was still a great game for you guys! Also you, Volkov and Bogdan have amazing defense
Yanagida is a literal beast in the service line🔥
Sorry to hear Taylor Sander had a minor ankle problem in Poland recently. Hope he can recover to his highest jump soon and wish Team USA good luck in the coming VNL.
Hey Erik, I think it'd be pretty cool to have your dad jump into a video if he's around! It would be great to see his perspective on a match with his experience as a coach as compared to your perspective as a player and libero.
Also, that mic sounds awesome. The quality is definitely clearer and more crisp, even in a room larger than where you usually record.
thanks for letting me know about the mic!
you read my mind about my dad! coming soon!
Yay! So glad to watch these videos again, and great to see that you made it home safely!
Can you tell me where can I watch Japanese v league
I've seen this match since the v-league finals but I just noticed the Sunbirds' libero trying to block(?) Haha. I wouldn't notice it if Erik didn't drop a comment. I focus to the setters too much. More power sir Erik!
Hi Shoji! Do you think you could post a workout video or something? Yuji Nishida posted one recently and it was really insightful, but as an aspiring libero I’d die for some insight in how you workout at the gym! :) Congratulations wrapping up your season!
can you make a vlog with team usa 🙏
That would be awesome!
Of course!
The suntory sunbirds' libero is very energetic 😂 love watching him move. Good luck team usa in the vnl!!
bounch of superb players in a court.
'sure you were already faced Otake and Fukatsu(Phanter's setter) and you'll meet Oya(Sunbird's setter) because he's one of Japanese national team right now. once again, your explanations about Japan's hitter's tech is kinda interesting even for an audience like me.
Good luck in your upcoming training! Can't wait for the Olympics!❤
I love the fact that after two months, this video has only one dislike. I’ve never seen that before
your home looks so beautiful and comfy !!
Welcome back to Hawaii. Mahalo for all the content you have put out there! 🤙🏻
thank you! its so nice to be home!
Great video Erik, I’ve been really loving your analysis of volleyball! Your channel is so entertaining to watch
the “hit” where he ended up setting is super smart i think it just needed to get it higher so that his outside could hit
Ow Yanagidas not part of the 2021 mnes national roster. Gonna miss him so much😭
Why ?
@@OnFraudWatch got replaced by the new guy Ran Takahashi and the other OH
@@jyfelisilda8194 it doesnt make sense to me tho yanagida is the better player for now imo
Do you know if he will play with the club still or is he ending his career completely?
I think he will still be participating in his club since he's one of the key players there.
@@OnFraudWatch The coach said in the interview that Yanagida does not fit in their new tactics, has a weak block and no court presence🤷♂️
I am 1 Year late, but Erik you are such a likeable guy! holy I felt everything you felt in this video! Love it!
Hopefully you'll make some content about prepping for the Olympics (Maybe a vlog??) I'd be really interested to see what goes on behind the scenes. Thank you for all the great content!!❤
If we're allowed to ask questions than I'd like to ask one, What do you think separates good Liberos from the best like Thales, You and France's Libero since I refuse to try and type his name?
I appreciate the compliment! I think consistency, ability to control the ball, and command of the back court!
Thank you for the new upload! So great to have you back, Erik! :D Also, I noticed that Panasonic Panther's libero had his own mop(?) that he used to wipe the floor. Then he tucked in behind his shorts. Is that normal? It was my first time seeing that happen so I got intrigued! I've only seen other people do it (who are not playing in the match)
They started doing that in the V-League when the league started once again after covid, they played with very little to none audience and the players are the ones to keep the floor free of any sweat and suchlike
That's normal for japanese players esp. the volleyball players. Grade school , High School, and even pro Volleyball players attach a piece of cloth in their back to wipe their own sweats in the floor. They're pretty disciplined.
its not really normal but ive seen it before. he knows he probably leaves a lot of sweat on the floor or he wants to dry his hands and arms. who knows!
What a beautiful room!
I like how you coments the plays. Thank you
Where can I find more of these front-back view of volleyball matches? I find them a lot more entertaining and educational to watch.
I think, he gets them for scouting reasons, so they are not available to the general public
The only place I've seen them consistently is a channel called Volleyball Source 2.0. They have matches from I think the 2019 CanAm games and 2019 NORCECA matches that have the same view.
Here's the channel link: ua-cam.com/channels/l-of--T0AlMOePVnpwx2rA.htmlfeatured
@@christianwalsh419 Thank you very much, will check it out!
Will you do a reaction on Imoco Conegliano vs. Vakifank 2021 finals when the match happens in May? It will be a amazing match no matter the results.
I might depending on how the match goes!
who’s you favorite player to play against? and or the most fun/scary whatever you pick?
Always enjoy these videos
I loved the little bunny hop Muserskiy did to block 😂
react to Jtekt Stings...? I basically want him to react to more Nishida clips xD
Have you considered playing in japan v.league?
Ur awesome!
thanks you too!
Kubiak seemed like he was not playing his best. He is usually so consistent
Seems like it. He looks pretty mad during the awarding ceremony, he took off the silver medal from his neck instantly.
i hope we can see u play in japan vleague 🤗
i wish but i dont think that will happen...
@@ErikShojivolleyball why not?
Hey Shoji, can you react to all top volleyball teams of difference countries????
大竹って良い時はめちゃくちゃ良いんだよなぁ。
Any tip on the waiting position in passing? Im really so bad at passing like, i dig a spike better than how i receive a service 😭
i have 2 videos all about passing! hopefully those help!
@@ErikShojivolleyball ❤️❤️❤️
Were there any other careers you considered going into if you didn't consider going pro for volleyball?
I was studying to go to medical school!
@@ErikShojivolleyball The Volleyball doctor is in
I haven't watched much of volleyball, or any sport for that matter
How much does your height matter in the game? (this Japanese team seemed to rely on one exceptionally tall player, is that common practice?)
Height can definitely help!
Will you be able to vlog with national team training? Please get lots of Taylor screen time lol
Hi Erik, I just started playing volleyball at 16, but I'm worried I started too late to become good and I can't even think about coming close to your skill level. Do you think it's too late for me now?
Many of the national team guys started around age 15 or 16. So you can do it,
@@ErikShojivolleyball thank you so much for answering, I'll do everything in my power to become a good player and maybe even go professional. Again, thank you so so much
Nice home you have there!!!
Hey, do you play some other sports?
Thanks! I played tennis pretty seriously growing up but I love all sports,
@@ErikShojivolleyball YO! TENNIS! THAT'S MY SPORT! LOVE IT! Do you play doubles or singles?
5:40 This arm swing is just lovely. I wanna try it wanna practice it wanna execute it. Imma give it a try
thank you
Who the heck shouts at 6:38???? That server must be really scared lmao
Hi Erik, please QnA with Kimberly Hill
Please react to this game. Oita Miyoshi vs Suntory Sunbirds
Good luck!!!
I play voleyball but i dont play matches because there is no leage for my age 😅
We need more indonesian react's from you🇮🇩🇮🇩
love ur english, bc i can learn
Erik pls react to Taubaté x Minas in Brazil Superliga Finals. The first game happened yesterday and Taubate can win it all on Friday
Shoji asked you to take care of yourself during covid19.
Can someone please explain to me, I’m so confused. Why was Erik playing in Russia if he’s from US?
There isn't a pro league in the USA, if you want to keep playing professionally you gotta move over seas everybody on team USA is doing it.
@@sebastian2456 thank you so much, so how do you get in a team overseas. Do you by any chance know
@@TokyoShift They have agents who help them get contracts with the overseas clubs
@@TokyoShift you play domestically until you get called up to play for your country in Olympics or VNL, then coaches from other teams can see you
@@Ow_Ragnarsson thank you so much, also so you have to finish college in order to participate in your national team
Erik what volleyball club did you play for when you were young
Outrigger
Outrigger!
@@ErikShojivolleyball thanks!!!
such pog?
I swear youtube doesn't show me Erik's banger vids....uh!
Great reaction! Is there anywhere in which I can watch the video you are watching? (I want to see the game from that perspective)
His name is Oya Masaki...
The reception positioning at 10:54 looks really odd to me. Two thirds of the court is covered by one player.
But I guess if you know it's a float perhaps you have enough time to react to it wherever it may land.
Yeah, I don't quite get some serve receive positions.
Ohh new background ! :D
How tall is the GIANT DUDE
Is he actually 7’2”?
@@hotdang8885 yep lol
@@leopravednikov9753 sheeesh man making be feel small..
@@hotdang8885 Ik I’m 6’5” and still couldn’t imagine looking up to that
@@leopravednikov9753 what position you play?
Hey erik shoji can u tell where u get these side view clips of matches
Erik is using the Volleymetrics site by Hudl. It is a subscription based service for teams from high school - pro. Excellent service for scouting.
@@JamesBond-ww5ud ok thanks
Next video pls....tutorial about the position libero😊
Isn't the VNL tournament coming up next month? will you be playing in that?
yah it’s in about a month! we will be there!
@@ErikShojivolleyball can't wait!!
whats a pipe? or a pike? im really new to volleyball 😅
A pipe is a back row spike usually from the middle of the court!
@@ErikShojivolleyball oooooh ok thanks :D
When you spike the ball in the middle from behind the attack line (the white line across the field on each side).
@@yung_naius4556 thanks :D
that when the middle backrow player (the "six") attacks - basically jumping before the attack line :)
I have request pls react to the libero of the Philippines dawn macandili 😊
why is Dmitriy Muserskiy not playing middle like he does for Russia
He's actually been known to play OPP sometimes. Most notable is when at the final sets of the 2012 olympic final when Brazil was clearly going to win it they put him on OPP and they came back to clutch the gold.
It's not a rare thing to be done in Japan or other Asian leagues, that they put their one big foreign player on the opposite position, even if they were originally not playing there. (Robertlandy Simon and Kévin Le Roux were handled similarly when they played in Asia) Muserskiy is a MASSIVE guy with a lot of hitting power, so to maximize his offensive output, they put him on a position that makes him easier to reach in most situations.
I'm very late but if you want to utilize someone's offense to the max then they shouldnt be playing middle
Hey Erik where do u watch these replays?
italy VS japan 2019 set 2 3 please😍
UPLOAD MORE PLEASE
Did you ever feel like your team will lose a game just because of the roster of the opposing team??
Msby black jackal
Hope you are healthy!Hope you will come back to Russian league.
Note: Japanese league now used another type of ball. Better visible, but far from perfect..
Why musersky plays in the v league ?
And isn't he a MB ?
They probably made him a really good offer or something also I think he's playing opposite because the want him hitting more since he's taller than pretty much any player from the V-League.
he’s so good he can play both. I think he plays in Japan because it’s a good offer and he loves the country!
ERICK ANSWERED ME OMFG !!!!!!!!!!!!
Is there an age limited to be on Team U.S.A??? i meant.....when you reached the "age" but you still good. Will they keep you? kakakakaka
As long as there aren’t people better than you
Nope, if you are good enough you can 60 and still playing
Wow
Why does Muserskiy play oppo? Anything other than middle seems a waste.
he’s so good he can play both. as an opposite they can set him more often!
Boy haven't you seen the gold match of men's volleyball in London Olympics? Watch how Muserskiy did magic as an oppo.
i suggest you to watch the 2012 Olympic gold match!😁
His offense would be wasted in the middle tbh
Хех, Муся может даже не прыгать
did the libro try to block
Looked like it. Lucky for him he didn't go above the net and the opponents blocked it so it just hit the libero as he was falling. I think.
I don’t like the angle, I can’t see kubiak
Ciao Erik , check also our final last season here in Japan .
Jtekt-Panasonic
;)
pleace react to volly ball proliga indonesia
What do you think about when you’re passing ? I also play libero and I have trouble with this
the server, communicating with my other passers, and my technique!
Hi Shoji, I would like you to review Nootsara Tomkham, please read my email.
Will you join V-League???
Some day I want to play for the USA volleyball team im MB even tho I'm 5'4 I can jump a little tho 8,3
Do u have asian blood???
japanese, i think.
He is Hawaiian
@@MegaRaptor9 japanese-hawaiian?
I’m 5’5 and can hit from the 3m line with a vert of 7.5 ft and I’ve only been playing volleyball for the last 3 months
Oh hey same height! I'm just a back up setter lol
Not a good match for Kubiak
hes sooooo fckin weak. i have hope that he will be not play OG
from what i know he was sick
@@Clara-pc5ui hes weak, not sick
@@cincin6376 he's not weak.
He's captain of a team that won World Championship and was officially recognised as the best outside hitter of the tournament,. So pay respect. Sure, he might not be as physically gifted and flashy spiker as Leon, Ngapeth or Zaytsev, but he's better in defence, receiving and team leadership.
Muserskiy plays with kids xD
