okay maybe we are all panicking a little bit too much
Hinata has definitely been running around way too much and he also didn’t rest in between the break properly for which Kageyama actually gave him shit right back then
And it’s not just this. It’s expected that he would get a little bit tired after doing so much running around and jumping (the BAM jump is something he’s not used to and it probably takes a greater toll on his body than the normal one) AND IN JUST THE ONE RALLY FROM Chapter 364, he:
PLEASE TELL ME YOU ALL AGREE THAT ALL THIS HAPPENING WITHIN THE SPAN OF A FEW SECONDS WOULD TIRE OUT ANYONE, HUMAN, MONSTER OR VOLLEYBALL FREAKS. Besides, I think this is just an emphasis on the fact that Hinata is pulling his weight more than usual and a segue into the ‘absolute confidence and pride of being an ace’ segment of the Karasuno vs Kamomedai arc where we will get both Udai’s and Asahi’s backstory. Hinata was in the back row and I think Yamaguchi will get substituted earlier, now instead of at towards the end of the set and Hinata will get a few seconds of rest from a time out and Noya’s presence on the court. If they can all buy some time for Hinata to rest, he will definitely be back towards the end of the set.
Edit: I said I thought Yamaguchi will substitute Hinata but I think it’s going to be Suga, after giving it some more thought. Yamaguchi for pinch serving would probably come in the latter part of the match and especially if we are going to have Asahi shine, I want it to be with Suga’s setting. Just makes more sense man.
