Author's Note

Thank you for picking up Haikyu!! volume 34! The other day I felt like I was starting to come down with a cold, so I went to the nearby mini-mart to pick up some kakkonto herbal medicine. I walked up to the register to pay for it, and the pretty young lady clerk said "Feel better soon!" when she handed me my change. I think that was the moment my cold went away.

Synopsis

The long-awaited Dumpster Battle begins! Nekoma, known for its defense, shocks everyone by going with aggressive synchro attacks! Meanwhile, Tsukishima watches blocking master Kuroo effectively curb Karasuno’s assault and declares he can’t outdo him…at least, not on his own!
