How many of you guys saw the Daichi is dead meme? Because after seeing the guy so unmoving on the field I understood where it came from. He had even lost a few teeth! Tanaka hit hard apparently. I almost had to fight Ukai to let Ennoshita on the field instead of me.

I was not taking that spotlight from him! If you wanted me to take the field then switch me out with Tanaka, no one else. Luckily that didn't happen, Ennoshita became the field captain as he was the only one that could fill in that role.

Well technically I could as well but this was a pretty crucial point of canon.

I can proudly say that I completely zoned out for the entirety of the Wakunan game, so much that I actually got startled when the whistle sounded. Indicating the end of the match. We had won, of course.

Tanaka nearly burst out in tears when he saw that Daichi was completely unharmed and well enough to play against Seijo.

"How are you so sure that we're playing against Seijo though?" Shoyo asked me, "they're playing against Datekou you know."

I hummed. "Well, this isn't an educated guess but my gut tells me we'll be facing them. And this time we'll win."

My raw determination radiated through the room and infected the entire team. We all felt the same of course, we all wanted our revenge. We wanted to win.

But first we would get to see the adidas setter from Datekou fuck up numerous times as he too was an idiot. Somehow, all the idiots in Haikyuu were just absolutely lovable. They were just far too cute for their tall builds.

What was that guy's name again? Kogane something. I didn't remember. I'd just call him adidas guy.

Because we wanted to be well prepared for our next match we decided to watch the Datekou vs Seijo match. Really, I just wanted to see what kind of differences I could find about our rival team.

Because this time I wanted to make sure, I wanted to make damn sure that we would win. Actually, now that I thought about it, I should probably take a look at Shiratorizawa. I saw one match of them and even then I didn't pay too much attention to the details. A mistake on my part.

"I'm going to take a look at the Shiratorizawa match, see you guys soon." I informed the team and nearly sprinted to the other court.

I wouldn't get the chance to observe them in depth, seeing as it was the second set and that Shiratorizawa was already in the twenties. Oh well, something was better than nothing.

I'd take any advantage I could get. Calmly I watched the rest of the match, not surprised in the slightest that they won. I pointedly ignored Tendou's frantic waving at me and walked back to my team. As expected, Seijo had won. Which left us all preparing for our rematch against the powerhouse.

The mood was grim and I found myself feeling the same. Somehow I couldn't find myself to really look forward to the match. Was it because I had failed to change the previous result? Or was it because I knew it would be Oikawa's last match in high school? Probably the latter. Because let's face it, I did feel kinda bad for the guy. He tried so fucking hard, every time, to go to nationals but he would never get there.

I shook my head and sighed deeply. There was no time to dwell on that, that match would go exactly how I wanted it to. The reason for that was simple. I would control every player on that field and create the openings Karasuno needed.

But before that I had to reevaluate Seijo's abilities. I needed maybe one set for that, at the very most.

The teams met on the court and said our thanks for the match thing and the starting line up got ready. I had very clearly asked Ukai to let me observe the first set, after that I was free for him to use. There were just a few things I needed to make sure before I could put my strategy in action.

The first serve went to Seijo, meaning that Oikawa would sent us his best shot. Daichi received the ball which was sent up a bit too high, Kindaichi and Shoyo had a bit of a shove battle which ended in Kindaichi's victory. Kageyama managed to get the ball back up, letting Nishinoya set the ball and allowing Asahi to score the first point in the match.

Kageyama took the first serve on Karasuno's part and played the ball out.

"Fail…" I murmured softly. I had honestly expected better from him, why did the first part of this match have to go the exact same way as in canon. Oh well, if the first set went exactly as in canon then I didn't really mind. Especially considering that we won that one. Maybe I could manage it to have us win without playing the third set… highly unlikely.

But, as I had predicted, the first set went to Karasuno. And something that was even more pleasing to me was Kyoutani, the guy that ripped Seijo's rhythm apart. My strategies would definitely work, but it would take a while. No matter, I could be patient.

"Hey guys, you got a minute?" I beckoned to my teammates and explained what I wanted to do.

This wouldn't normally work on a team as composed as Seijo however, Kyoutani was now part of the team. Meaning that they had to rake up points as fast as possible before we managed to figure Kyoutani out. They were likely highly aware of my abilities, I knew Oikawa would be. Which was the exact reason their spikers would be far more offensive.

It took a little while for Karasuno to really be able to set my strategy afloat, it was easier to do so when I entered the fray. The score was 10-6 for Seijo, which definitely wasn't ideal but I was willing to sacrifice the second set in order to make sure my idea worked.

I gave Oikawa a smirk and chuckled lowly to myself. I hadn't read the manga in my previous life but I had seen a few screenshots from the manga on apps like Pinterest. One of those screenshots had impacted me, it had really shown me just what a genius Kenma was. Yes, I had taken a page from his book of strategies, even though he hadn't used it quite yet.

No matter, Seijo would fall under my hands soon enough.

Anybody able to guess what Matsuo's going to do? Cause Imma be honest, that strategy was brilliant.
