Just about 2 more months until the qualifiers. Tsukishima's brother invites him to practice with his own team, Kageyama goes to observe a certain team, and Hinata and Kenma promise to have a match that they wouldn't be able to repeat.

Karasuno is finally playing in the qualifier prelims. Their first opponent is the 4th best team from the Interhigh prelims, Johzenji High School. Their motto is to play. What will Karasuno do against their rather unconventional playing method?

Karasuno can't get back into rhythm without Sawamura, and are having a hard time playing to their full potential. Meanwhile, Hinata battles it out in the air with Wakunan's ace, who has a similar playing style to the Little Giant.

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...

Underway into the second match, Karasuno tries to attack, but Shiratorizawa's middle blocker is a Guess Monster. Using fast intuition, he keeps blocking all of their attempts. As he blocked Karasuno's spikes one after another, Tsukki calmly assesses the situation for a counter-attack.

As the third set starts, the bout is tied at 1-1. Attempting to seize momentum after stopping Ushijima, Karasuno tries to stay aggressive. However, Shiratorizawa's setter, Shirabu, seems unfazed by the loss of the second set and swings momentum back to the undefeated champions.

Just as Shiratorizawa gets to match point, Karasuno regains spirit as Tsukki returns to the court.. Players on both teams are at the end of their ropes, but they continue to give their all to the last part of the match!

As the Karasuno High School Volleyball Team is trying to get ready for nationals, they receive word that Kageyama has been invited to the All-Japan Youth Training Camp. On top of that, Tsukishima had been invited to the Miyagi Prefecture Rookie Select Training Camp. Despite not being invited to the Miyagi Prefecture Rookie Select Training Camp, Hinata decides to show up anyway?!

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!!

While Hinata, Kageyama, and Tsukishima are gone, the Karasuno High School Volleyball Team do practice matches with Tokonami High School. Meanwhile, as the other boys are doing a practice match with the Shiratorizawa third-years, Hinata watches them play and begins to realize that all he’d ever concentrated on is chasing after the ball..

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?

The second day of the Spring Tournament. Karasuno faces the team that placed second at the Inter-High and one of the favorites to win the Spring Tournament, Inarizaki High School. The team also has the best twins in high school volleyball, the Miya twins. Karasuno’s battle against one of the best is about to begin!

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?

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.

Inarizaki starts to turn things around with Miya Atsumu's serves. Suddenly, there is a play that changes the flow of the game.

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!

The Miyagi Prefecture Inter-High is now over. Hinata, Kageyama, and the other members of Karasuno have a lot on their minds...
