kagehina's argument arc means the absolute WORLD to me. It's EVERYTHING. it's genuinely one of the most realistic, human portrayals of an argument, a fight, a discussion. 2 parties with differing opinions. both have absolutely valid feelings and opinions each and although they are kind and good people, they both display this innate stubborness due to which they refuse to budge on their view DESPITE hearing the other one. "Yes, i hear you, YES you have a good point, but you're NOT HEARING ME!!" BUT THEY DO!! THEY HEAR EACH OTHER, THEY JUST DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIND A MIDDLE GROUND!! That's what makes the conflict so devastating to watch, you can't truly pick a side, blame one of the two for being unreasonable. You empathize with both of them, and you want them to find a solution to a problem that appears so huge and unsolvable and you are as terrified as either of them that this is it! this will cause the rift that is impossible to bridge!! and what do we do then!!
And the only way they resolve it is by taking a leap of faith. Both of them. Sure, maybe Kageyama more than Hinata, but Hinata also has to trust that Kageyama believes in the possibility of something new and even better to work out. And ultimately they need a village to make it happen and work it out and take that leap. And it's changed irreversibly and forever. They cannot go back to the way it was ever, but what they go on with is so much better and it's built on growth and trust instead of trying to cocoon yourself in stability that is simultaneously stasis and ugh!! fuck, it's such a beautiful arc. It pains me to warch it every time, i recoil physically at the explosive friction and tension that build and build and builds until it snaps, but it is so devastatingly real and human and there is so much wisdom and beauty in this argument and its progress and portrayal and man. It really means the world to me.
