Fuji: Let's throw this match, it'll be fine.

Fuji: Okay wait, that's my brother. I'll crush you.

Fuji: Here's a lob!

Tezuka: Play seriously. Fuji: No.

Fuji: But I will win this thing even if I'm blind!

Fuji: Ahh... can I just pretend I tried? Echizen: No. Play seriously.

Fuji: Okay fine maybe I will!

Fuji: ...or maybe I'll just quit tennis for good or whatever.

Fuji: Haha, joke's on you, here's the super serious new me!

Coach: Fuji, you're on! Fuji: I'm ready! Echizen: Actually, I kinda really wanted to play tho... Fuji: Ohh yeah no that's cool you can have this match I don‘t mind :3

To be continued ad infinitum?

SUWABE JUNICHI, ATOBE'S SEIYUU: you guys are still middle schoolers jfc

video version cus gifs get crunchy in live2d (though tbh i kinda like the crunchiness too)

gakuto recognising that yuushi isn’t cool/hasn’t shut off his emotions despite the fact that his face and voice are barely any different than usual lol 

oshitari leg fetish yuushi cool spraying gakuto’s ankle 

the fact that they both have the same Spot(tm) (a la golden pair’s shipping container, such a married couple thing)

gakuto reaching out to the grouchy new transfer student 

the moment when chibi yuushi falls in love 

yuushi putting aside his cool/strategic tennis for the sake of gakuto’s dream

(and you all know how i feel about the impulsive/emotional dreamer and the cool-headed partner who puts aside reason to spoil/indulge them combination)

yuushi/their combination literally boosting gakuto to new heights that he can’t reach alone 

the way he yells “gakutoooooooo” as if that isn’t the least collected, most heated/passionate we’ve ever heard/seen yuushi be in his entire life

and how gakuto just knows what to do, meaning they’ve either practised this before (unlikely?) or they’re basically on the same wavelength

the absolute faith they have in each other doing this manoeuver 

yuushi dropping his racket and running over to catch gakuto as he faints like something out of a romance movie 

the way he looks so concerned when gakuto falls but then relaxes/is relieved when gakuto opens his eyes and speaks 

yuushi doesn’t say “we won”, he says “you and i won” 

also bonus jabun feels:

marui and jackal always being the parents of their underclassman 

jackal gave up his spot playing doubles with marui for the sake of rikkai despite really wanting to play with bunta ;~~~; 

also think of how long he’s had to wait for this opportunity/how hard it must have been to give up considering everything that happened at U-17 camp!!

the way that they share the same values of being selfless (jackal giving up his doubles spot, marui giving jackal’s grip tape [the last token he had of his partner] to choutarou)

marui being angry at tamagawa for wasting jackal’s time and sacrifice 

he probably got his “just try to get in my way” philosophy from jackal covering for him while he was trying out his volley techniques in matches (◡‿◡✿)
