Interhigh is coming up next month. The Karasuno volleyball club is pensive, tension rises. They endeavor in training individually and with clearer vision as a team, as they get more inspired. In the meantime, pairings of the preliminaries get announced...

Thanks to Hinata and Kageyama's cornerstone "freak quicks," Karasuno is in the lead against Date Tech. But with Aone blocking, Date Tech starts catching up to Karasuno. This is when the ace Azumane must prove his worth. Will Azumane blast through Date's iron wall?

Because Karasuno's plays become messy and the match's rhythm gets thrown off, they change setters. Sugawara goes onto the court in place of Kageyama and because he's always seen things from outside the court, he says he knows what's going on, and Karasuno starts their counterattack. Meanwhile, after seeing the match from the outside, there's a change in Kageyama as well.

Aoba Johsai begins to pull away in set 3, forcing Coach Ukai to make some drastic decisions. Yamaguchi is subbed in as an ace server, but the pressure proves to be too much to overcome. A service error occurs, but the error allows Karasuno to calm down and climb back within two.

After suffering a heartbreaking loss to Aoba Johsai, the third years must decide if they will retire or participate in the spring tournament. Kageyama and Hinata vent their frustration on the court after their practice has been cancelled. The winner of the fall tournament is revealed, and Karasuno begins their first real practice to get ready for the spring tournament.

The second day of the Tokyo away games. Karasuno isn't able to get a single set against Nekoma, especially with their new player. Hinata and Kageyama's weirdo quick doesn't seem to work on the new Nekoma or the other powerhouse schools for long. Seeing this, Hinata makes a decision...

The members of Karasuno continue to strengthen the new things they've learned while at the Tokyo training camp. However, Hinata and Kageyama still can't get their quick down. Kageyama is anxious about Hinata losing his spirit and tries to do a normal toss during a practice match, but...

Johzenji's carefree rhythm almost breaks Hinata and Kageyama, but they manage to regain their cool with Sawamura's help, and continue the match. Meanwhile, Johzenji's manager, Misaki, tells the team how she really feels about them.

Karasuno is facing a completely different Seijoh now that they've called in Kyotani. Karasuno can't seem to gt their rhythm together, meanwhile, Seijoh seems to pick themselves back up. When the flow of the game seems like it's going to change drastically, Karasuno...

Neither team is willing to let the other team get ahead. They're both reaching their limit, yet the match continues. They proceed into the final battle to determine who will make it to the finals.

Thanks to Tsukki and Nishinoya's blocking, Karasuno comes back at the end of the second set. It is a heated battle in the end, resulting in multiple deuces... Who will score the final point?

Karasuno manages to win the fourth set. The fifth set begins, but has a different set of rules: whoever gets 15 points first wins. Keishin sees that Kageyama is exhausted, and switches him out with Sugawara. Determined to hold up his end, Sugawara shows how he has improved.

The battle goes well beyond 15, as the fifth set for both teams enters the 20's. Shiratorizawa shows off individual strengths, and Karasuno continues to show the strength as a team. In a battle of volleyball philosophy, Karasuno and Shiratorizawa fight for who moves on to Nationals.

In the Miyagi Prefecture qualifiers for the Spring Tournament, Karasuno High School Volleyball Team manages to defeat Shiratorizawa Academy in an intense battle and secures their spot in the national tournament. Meanwhile in the Tokyo qualifiers, Nekoma High School, Fukurodani High School, Nohebi Academy, and Itachiyama Academy fight for the 3 slots to go to nationals. Will Nekoma High School be able to secure their spot in the tournament? Will we see a rematch of Nekoma and Karasuno’s Battle of the Garbage Dump on a national level? The Tokyo qualifiers are about to begin!!

The Miyagi Prefecture Rookie Select Training Camp is reaching its final days. Hyakuzawa from Kakuzawa Academy has very little experience playing volleyball and is having a hard time keeping up in practice. Then Hinata tells him something. Meanwhile, Kageyama is at the All-Japan Youth Training Camp playing with various other amazing players from all across Japan and...

The practice match against Date Tech before the Spring Tournament is about to come to an end. Each member of Karasuno tries to better themselves personally. Will they be able to acquire a new weapon and evolve as a team?

Karasuno manages to make it to the second round after their victory against Tsubakihara Academy. Meanwhile, Hinata runs into Hoshiumi Korai, one of the players from Kamomedai High School who went to the All Japan youth camp that Kageyama went to. Hinata witnesses the plays of Hoshiumi, who’s considered the next Little Giant, and...

Because of Yamaguchi's service ace at the end of the first set, Karasuno is able to get set point first. However, Inarizaki then starts targeting Tanaka, who seems a bit off his game. How will Tanaka deal with this pressure?

Karasuno starts to break down Inarizaki's dominance with Kageyama's serves. And to counter that, Inarizaki sends in their captain, Kita Shinsuke to get their rhythm back.

The game is now in a deuce with both teams are pushed to their limits to try to get that one final point. This match against Inarizaki brings out everything that both teams have to the very end!
