Ushijima's brief flashback with his father really resonated with me; it made his whole powerful aura feel less like arrogance and more like a deep-seated commitment, which is actually kind of moving. Seeing Karasuno struggle so much without Tsukishima in the game is tough, even with Narita stepping up, because Ushijima just feels inevitable. But then Akiteru's face when he realized how much his brother truly loves volleyball? That was a moment that made me genuinely emotional, thinking about how much he'd held back.
