What Season 3 of Haikyu!!
Karasuno finally reaches the Miyagi Prefecture final, but it faces the defending champions, Shiratorizawa.

The protagonists must choose between individual talent and the collective strategies they have worked on. As the sets go on, exhaustion takes its toll, and Tsukishima's injury makes things even harder. We'll also find out what drives Ushiwaka to keep playing.
