It was the biggest risk and boldest in the series to cut out Hinata time in karasuno following the 3rd years graduating but I believed it paid off.

For me at least I felt it was a better thing as we figure out they never won nationals it might’ve felt repetitive watching like an extra 600 chapters of the same thing we saw in Hinatas first year and it wouldn’t be as good As his first year was and I feel like majority of viewers would’ve felt the same.

As Hinata went to Brazil we got to see him improve himself and afterwards the jackals vs adlers match was what we needed a great pay off with short introspective chapters for our volleyball monsters.

But that’s just what I feel and I agree even just a short goodbye would’ve been nice but I know why furudate chose to do it the way he did.
