Atsumu and Kiyoomi’s first disagreement over parenting is over ‘pressuring’ their kid(s) into being a volleyball player.
Kiyoomi hated being told what he should be growing up but Atsumu reallllyy wants to be a sports dad
I love how Miyuki and Eijun affect each other on a level that goes beyond just mutual admiration as a battery.
There are two ways to think about what Miyuki means to Eijun: the influence Miyuki has on his baseball philosophy, and Miyuki Kazuya, the person.
I’m obsessed w this detail 😭 how ironic is it that the English scans make him seem like a motormouth bc there’s literally no way to translate his shortened vocab
My favorite testament to how Eijun changes Miyuki in Act II is how much more outwardly supportive he acts. Miyuki praises Eijun more often, scolds him more gently when he makes mistakes, and is more likely to trust his judgement and ideas. Eijun has softened Miyuki’s rough edges.
