Stormy Weather & The Gamer parallels

Can we please talk about the damn parallels and how much I hate Haikyuu

This might be just me seeing things, really, but I’m just one hell of a masochist and I hOPE I’m not the only one seeing this.

So, for the 2d ED of the 1st season (”Leo”) we had this special cover:

Kageyama throws the King’s Cloak away, and it disappears in a flock of birds (welp, ravens). The metaphor is pretty clear — Kageyama’s no longer the Solitary King, his times as the King of the Court in Kitagawa Daichi are over, and his new stage with Karasuno is starting, with Hinata leading the way. Basically, the disappearing cloak is the end of Kageyama’s past and him becoming a new player and person. 

!BEWARE people who haven’t read the manga because there’re some heavy spoilers down there!

And now we have this for the 2d ED of the 2d season (”Fever”/”Hatsunetsu”):

At first I was just struck with how freaking gorgeous it looks, but then I compared the two covers and just. Fuck my life people. Oikawa’s holding Aobsajousai’s banner (”Rule the Court”), which is disappearing behind him in a flock of green leaves (青葉, “aoba” in the name of the school means “green leaves”). It’s almost like Oikawa’s time with his team is coming to an end… right… He runs and only looks forward, just like he’s said, and he doesn’t know just yet, but it’ll be over way faster than he could’ve anticipated. He probably won’t notice up until there’ll be barely anything left in his hands, up until the ball will bounce off his arms with no one to cover that far behind him. 

Defeat is not an option for Oikawa — but sometimes people just don’t get to choose, because that’s the way life is. 

It has always fascinated me how Ishida uses his parallels throughout the whole story for differents events and characters. And I wonder, how long before the pilot chapter he has planned all these detailed elements. Is he human? :O We could write a whole book about it and we will never know for sure, haha.

Kimura Ryohei-sama >////<  Is that why it’s called Prince of Stride: Alternative? Like an alternative universe?? Hahaha

Prince of Alternative Stride x Haikyuu

Was looking for a similar scene with Bokuto instead (because Kimura Ryohei) but I couldn’t find one. So I just went with Hinata~

out of left field, this comparison (sorry for the bad quality Mados- phone pics of my physical copy ;a;)

there are two things to note: the ED card is drawn by ISAO, not Ishida, but the character portrayal is spookily similar. Also, Mado is referring to ghouls in general as “trash” not just Touka and Hinami, whereas Haise is probably just referring to Eto. 

and in case you didn’t need the reminder I found something else:
