Wow. Been a while since I’ve watched a whole game of Annie’s. Her arm swing can be so quick. It was also nice to see KP have a good match and watch them go head to head. I wouldn’t fault either one too much for their blocking. If you were playing these teams and had any ball control, you probably wouldn’t swing into the 6’4”+ blonde girls. I actually thought watching the match that Annie did a nice job setting up the block and getting involved (had a good block touch all the way over on a D ball that KP hit. Might have been net, but she was there). With that being said, I thought KP very wisely did a nice job avoiding her.

Finished watching the Denso v JT match and there appeared to be some pretty bad calls in the last set that ended up being against Denso. That could've easily gone the other way... There were quite a few bad calls. In the third set, a falling ball on Denso's side actually hit their court but was called their point. (JT 20-18). That's what happens when there's no challenge system lol. I wonder why they can't just rent out V1's system.

I think there is no excuse over not having a challenge system now for the Japan pro league. Yes, there were controversies and confusion over the system when it was first implemented internationally, but now most top level leagues should be familiar with it.

This view is so much fun to watch. The bench celebrating is hilarious. At one point, one of JT's reserves was rolling on the floor.

The Japan league (JVL V1) has a challenge system. This cup, I believe, isn't organized by the JVA? I'm not sure but it's puzzling why there is no challenge system for this cup.

Yeah I was thinking it's odd because I thought they had a challenge system...but not in this case...different rules?

Drews has such an unaesthetic swing... even more so when its not a fast set lol Anything is better than Ebrar's swing... She is the sole reason i cant watch THY... She's an eyesore despite her talent I definitely disagree. Her arm swing itself is fine. It’s her approach that’s unaesthetic and also the fact she can’t land on 2 feet. I honestly find Goncharova’s goofy footed approach the most annoying thing lol

Looks like they are dressed in high school sailor uniforms (sailor uniforms are the standard school girl dress in Japan and one of the inspiration for the popular manga and anime magical girl series "Sailor Moon"). So they are playing high school kids and talking about high school life...that's the extent of my Japanese, haha.

Sailor Venus (Minato) plays volleyball apparently and the team eventually has to fight a volleyball monster...or something like that:

Coach Yuri delivers. Denso vs. JT Can't believe how mediocre these Japanese setters are.

Concur. KP's defense and footwork has gotten better. Seeing a lot more stutter steps in the back row.
