that kurotsuki in the chapter continues to be some Real Good Shit™
i’m literally screaming at kuroo and tsukishima talking like they’re not in the middle of the fucking game of their high school lives like what the fucking even
y’all i know he’s laughing at all of them for being played by yamaguchi but kuroo being in the same panel as a laughing tsukki makes this so much more funnier
y’all remember when tsukishima thought kenma didn’t like him?? well
i told y’all it’s because tsukishima is basically kuroo’s apprentice and kenma knows just how troublesome a blocker kuroo is being in the same team as him. on top of that tsukishima remembers EVERYTHING the training camp taught him and kenma PROBABLY KNOWS kuroo won’t be able to resist on commenting on tsukishima’s current blocks and, whether or not he’s aware of it, he’s also STILL giving tsukishima pointers IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FUCKING GAME
FUCK YEAH THAT’S MY SON. YES FUCKING WAY HE DID THAT.
BUT WHY IS EVERYONE LITERALLY ON TSUKISHIMA’S SIDE??? even the other guys from the tokyo training camp seems to be rooting for him?? what kinda assholery did kuroo do to them???
BRUH. EVEN BOKUTO IS ON TSUKKI’S SIDE AND HE’S KUROO’S BEST BRO OUTSIDE OF NEKOMA. (SHUT UP, AKAASHI ACCEPT THAT HE IS NOW YOUR SON) (also,@ bokuto - our?? as in…yours and akaashi’s? hmmm?? 👀👀👀👀👀)
yaku blaming kuroo for karasuno doing good at blocks is now canon. bless. he could have taught their blockers all the shit he taught tsukishima and more but NOOO. HE JUST HAD TO BE A BETTER TEACHER TO LITERALLY THE MAIN BLOCKER OF THEIR LONG RIVAL TEAM.
KUROO SAYING IT’S TSUKKI’S OWN ABILITY WHEN YOU KNOW DAMN WELL HE WILL PROBABLY LORD OVER TSUKISHIMA THE TOKYO TRAINING CAMP DAYS FOREVER. He’d probably be all like ‘you only knew how to do that because of me’ ‘ah, young padawan. i see all of my teachings have paid off’ ‘don’t get cocky now. i’m still better than you.’
ohmyfuckinggod. look at kuroo’s face. he’s genuinely asking tsukishima what he thinks of volleyball now. bet my ass he never forgot how tsukishima said volleyball was just ‘okay’. AND FUCKING LOOK AT HIS SMILE. that’s the smile of someone who knows he made a difference for the better. he fucking knows tsukishima is enjoying volleyball now and he’s genuinely fucking happy for him and he’s genuinely glad that he’s a part of that change.
TSUKISHIMA SAID ‘THANKS TO YOU’ AND HE THOUGH ‘TRULY, THANKS TO YOU’ HE DIDN’T FUCKING MASKED IT. HE DIDN’T SHRUG AND SAY IT’S JUST ‘OKAY’. HE ACTUALLY SAID THANKS AND–
let me just cry over tsukishima smiling and thanking kuroo for helping make volleyball fun for him
my bros, my dudes, my fellow tsukishima stans, we’ve come full circle my friends.
