It pains me when ppl bring up kageyama never visiting hinata in brazil as if it's a marker of him not caring about hn or being a bad friend when its kgym literally understanding n respecting the promise they made to grow stronger and meet eo at the top???
like to think that most of the adlers apart from like,, houshimi and ushijima knew nothing about kageyamas history n rivalry with hinata so when hinata ducks under the net after adlers v jackals and LAUNCHES at kageyama with a huge smile everyone Is like ??
@choppyama
STOP AHH I think about this all the time like he acknowledges his height as a "u do realise that if u don't have height ur gonna have to work harder" but he NEVER makes him feel like he shouldn't be standing on the court bc of it or that it's a "weakness" just. Kgym the man u are
I envy the people who always have the right manga panels ready when they make a point it's like they're a pastor quoting the bible how tf Teach me your ways😭😭
When kageyama misses hinata while he's in brazil he goes to the gym alone n practices sets picturing hinata as his spiker until he can't anymore, sinking to the floor tired and sweaty with a lump in his throat, hating himself for being impatient bc he'd promise he'd wait
Especially bc I feel like kageyama doesn't talk about anything other than vb with most teammates so a lot of them think he's reserved/private n then they see him w hinata shoyo sunshine incarnate in a yelling match yet looking absolutely thrilled and they're like oh! Okay then!
kagehina's first meeting being in front of the bathroom w kageyama telling his middle school teammates to stop making fun of hinata only to then say "guys who can't look after themselves shouldn't talk big" bc hinata had a stomachache 😭😭🫶
Kageyama >> Since hinata had a fever at the spring tournament he's become a little overprotective in winter
Hinata >> "That fever wasn't because of the cold" he thinks, but kageyama is being unusually gentle so he doesn't resist
THEYRE SO CUTE IM FJSKBSMDM😭🫶
KAGEYAMA WAS THE FIRST PERSON TO TAKE HINATA SERIOUSLY AS A PLAYER AND A RIVAL!! even when hes at the olympics at 19 hinata is his main rival, and he trusts hinata. He doesnt need to visit, he knows he is working hard to meet him at the top like they promised.
highschool kghn going to a sports store tgt for new vb gear & kageyama is rlly involved with hinata picking the right shoes & the right knee pads kneeling on the ground to feel hinatas legs n how they fit and the sports store employee is watching them from the counter like 👀👀
@fromtheasphalt
HINATA BEING ONE OF THE FIRST PEOPLE TO GET MAD AT PEOPLE SAYING KAGEYAMA IS A GENIUS HES LIKE NO MY BOYFRIEND WORKED HARD FROM DAY ONE PUT SOME RESPECT ON HIS NAME!!!
accidentally liked tsukikage art on the tl and recoiled so hard I almost dropped my phone im still shaking i didnt mean it kageyama n hinata im sorry it was an accident pls 🙏😭😭 kagehina for life I swear
@sixshayou
RIGHT like they're used to calm collected volleyball genius and then hinata crashes into him and he's like HINATA BOKE!!! and they're like who is this man wtf
i just know hinata & kageyama on the same team at the olympics was INSANE they are the two people who push each other the hardest and constantly take eachother beyond their limits.... not only freaking out the opponents but also their own teammates by how intense they are mhmhmhm
in 3rd year when hinata grows out his hair kageyama starts wearing hairties on his wrist so he has one for when hinata inevitably forgets to bring any to practice
ppl r allowed to ship whoever they want (legal ofc) but when i see either kageyama or hinata i expect cute kagehina fanart only to see them kissing n hugging someone else and stare at my phone like
sometimes I think about a different hq where hinata played volleyball at the same rate as kageyama. Like he got started young and played with the same passion from the very beginning. Still a shorty when he meets kgym but he doesn't just fly he's got SKILLS
platonic vs romantic kagehina I honestly don't care but they are each other's number 1 like I cannot picture them with significant others whatsoever?? How u gonna live up to actual soulmates
hinata learning the word for partner in portugese but not realising it means /romantic partner/ so he goes around telling everyone that he's training hard for his ~partner~ and gets confused when they call him cute and romantic
autistic kageyama & adhd hinata is fun for the meme but it also destroys me bc neurodivergent people finding home in one another in a world where it feels like no one else understands them is a very specific brand of found family curated for me actually
「Thought something was wrong」Hinata: What is it?
Did something happen?
Were you hit somewhere?
Does your stomach hurt?
Kageyamaaaa?
Kageyama: 😴😴😴
Hinata: SO YOU'RE JUST SLEEPING!?
hinata so caring for nothing ahfjskfm😭🫶
Okay so I'm curious is your favourite hq character ur favourite bc you relate to them the most or are they your favourite bc u relate most to the xhatacter that's in love with them. Bc I am %100 a tobio kinnie, so naturally my acc is all about hinata shoyo
@littlegnoblin
I was talking about this witha moot yesterday like... thinking kageyama would date casually or have hookups is just blatant mischatacterisation and it kinda annoys me lol💀
outsider perspectives on kagehina being a little confused about their relationship but always coming to the understanding that they're simply each other's person in every way
@milanddraw
no but there's also something so gratifying about curating a very specific collection of fics from authors who get ur ship EXACTLY like u do
Read such a good fic last night of kageyama telling hinata through his grief and using it as an opposite to finally tell him any kazuyo whfjskfnit was so beautiful and well written🥹🫶
nah but being kagehina's ex teammates n seeing them play together at the Olympics is next level insane like?? telling people u played with them in highschool and how stupid they were back then and everyone's like ok buddy, sure. I feel sorry for karasuno so bad😭😭
there's way too much good shit in haikyuu to be able to talk about everything on one acc that's why we all have our disciplines it's like medical school we've all done the same studies n then we pick a specialty I'm a brain surgeon but an expert in kagehina instead of brains yk
From the beginning the first think kageyama criticises hinata for is the fact he isn't looking after himself and isn't fully prepared for the match. Even in MIDDLE SCHOOL kageyama knew and emphasised the importance of looking after yourself. Furudate ily
DUNNO JUST MIGHT BE FUN FOR IT TO NOT BE "where have you been doing these past three years?" BUT "where have you been these past three years I need to stand on the same side of the net as you NOW pls let me set for u"
why do I genuinely feel so anxious over that joking kagehina better than atushina tweet I made that had ppl mad at me in the quotes😭 as much as I'm a kagehina defender I'm never actually gonna hate on someone bc of a harmless ship they enjoy pls guys don't fight me I'm sorry😭🫶
obviously excited to hear that we're gonna get the timeskip animated but is nobody else wondering how tf they're gonna do it bc its not all gonna fit in one movie hello???
hc that pro vb players kagehina have their own "which could mean nothing" tinhat conspiracy theorist fans who make analysis videos & Twitter threads detailing all the lore and are absolutely CONVINCED they're together (they're right, kghn watch the videos while cuddling n laugh)
thinkin bout hinata making the rounds telling ppl about brazil & is nervous for kgyama but when he does kgyama is silent for a moment processing. then just "don't take too long dumbass" and all of hinatas anxiety drains away at once bc ofc. Kageyama understands better than anyone
writing in kageyama pov comes so naturally to me this man is me i am him being in love with hinata shoyo is as natural as breathing let me compare thee to a summers day
i wish i had the intelligence and skill to articulate the intricacies of how i think kagehina's dynamic works and all my analysis and headcanons i have for them but i go to write it down and all that goes on in my head is GWAHHHHHH!!! KAGEHINA😭😭🫶🫶🫶
kageyama finally comes to visit and hinatas friends all congratulate him for bagging such a handsome guy but he just responds like "yea!! My partner is really strong!! I won't lose to him😄" (they act sm like a couple there's no difference)
realised all my fav ships have this thing in common where they're both a little crazy but bc they understand eachothsr they're cute and love in their own world while everyone around them is like yo these guys are CRAZY (good for them)
@artistsniff
NO LIKE THATS EXACTLY IT hinata isnt moving to brazil for fun sight seeing times with his bestie hes TRAINING. hes working hard everyday so that he can return to japan as soon as possible to play with kageyama again on the same level how r they missing the point😭😭
@yamascourt
in my mind kageyama has been in love since like,, second year but places volleyball first (even though he'd pining bad) but for hinata the distance when he's brazil really makes him realise it
I just can't see a way they're gonna fit the kamomedai match, aftermath, brazil training, jackels v adlers and wrap it all up neatly in ONE movie?? maybe I'm delusional but convinced they're going to split it up bc it feels impossible
@omitsu387
See I know this is probably the truth but it's funnier to me to think they're just Goated and somehow know specific panels and pg numbers from memory just so they can whip them out in twt threads
Rereading haikyuu isn't enough I need a brain chip in my skull that just plays it at all times I need that shit DOWNLOADED into me pls some computer person help me out
thinking about hinata is so friendly and likeable and how he went to Rio knowing no one and made a family for himself on the otherside of the world sobbing I love hinata shouyou sm
@UhohShouto
this is what I've been saying😭😭 like I can't comprehend ppl shipping hinata or kageyama with other people at all when kagehina is RIGHT THERE 🙏
@belovedkuroken
he has so many good spikers to practise with but somehow none of them compare to the feeling he gets when it's hinata jumping for his toss :((
this entire thread is THE interpretation of how kagehina realise their feelings for eachother and how they deal with them it's just sossososo perfect OP understands their characters perfectly NO CRITICISM THIS IS CANON!!!
rightio this is just my interpretation of their characters and how i like to write them, but i just ate a giant slab of bread and jam and am buzzing on a late evening sugar rush, so:
HINATA AND KAGEYAMA: FALLING IN LOVE; A THREAD 💙🧡🧵
deleted the tweet this acc is a place of peace never gonna mention atshn again let's all just live and ship who we want without yelling at each other over it pls
@ackamama
RIGHT like I imagine he's not perfect or anything but he's like,, houshimi level good at everything but what rlly gets kageyama is his speed bc hinata does a super fast slide and he's like oh THAT GUY can hit my sets I NEED HIM
@kghnenjoyer
even hinata is a little embarrassed like kageyama stop this is unnecessary but kageyama is deadpan "no we need to make sure its good so you do well on the court" and continues touching him lol
SAME THING AS BALL BOY ARC!! kageyama didn't question once why hinata would go be a ball boy bc he has so much faith & trust in hinata's promise to meet him the world stage that he knows hinata is learning and growing anyway he can to fulfil that promise and be stronger HELLO??
they cut a lot out of nekoma match but still managed to retain the skeleton n ensure a lot of the emotional build up & character development remained, if they want to do the same thing with the second movie they can't just go around cutting whtvr bc the movie will fall apart
I just can't see a way they're gonna fit the kamomedai match, aftermath, brazil training, jackels v adlers and wrap it all up neatly in ONE movie?? maybe I'm delusional but convinced they're going to split it up bc it feels impossible
locked into my translation project so hard literally felt like I was gonna die when I had to stop to go eat something hinata shoyo levels of passion LETS GO
it's so frustrating to me that I don't think I'll ever be able to put into words how much haikyuu means to me like furudate actually changed my brain chemistry with every chapter haikyuu is just so peak guys i
