I think one of the things I love the most about Haikyuu is that even though the whole manga comes from a place of love from Furudate who created the story specifically to get people into volleyball, there is nothing to make you feel bad about not wanting to play anymore
There are characters who are completely obsessed with volleyball. There are characters who aren't obsessed but are interested enough to keep going. There are characters who weren't into it but did it anyway and then just couldn't stop. There are characters who started doing volleyball and then realized they didn't like it anymore, then left and were better for it. There are characters who are like "this was cool and it was nice but I don't want to do this forever". There are characters who never play but still support the teams anyway
And the story validates every single one of these experiences. There's no "this experience is better than that experience", there are just characters who like it, don't like it, are obsessed with it or can appreciate everything that happens in a game regardless of their feelings towards it
It's just really nice to go through the story and feel the whole acceptance through the writing itself, to see that Furudate is encouraging you to try volleyball, to experience how fun it can be, and if it's not fun for you or you fell out of love with it or just don't want to do it anymore, then that's fine! At least you experienced it! At least you tried! At least you learned something about yourself! And hopefully you made friends along the way!
Haikyuu inspires people to try something new but never does it show a characters negative feelings or lack of feelings towards it as invalid and wrong. It just encourages you to do what makes you happy. I really appreciate that

I feel like a lot of discussion in worlds of how we do socialism and also people trying to (with varying levels of genuineness) do philanthropic or ethical versions of capitalism we talk about ‘the working class’ as if either they’re some people to empower or a human rights problem to fix. and yes there’s a struggle of power and for ownership of profit and yes we need to do that fairly and ethically but I think what people miss either deliberately or from trained and systemic invisibility of marginalised groups is that the working class have never been the lowest class. in fact the average person you could say is and has always been working class (don’t let the middle in middle class fool you). there are an entire diverse caste of people who have fallen out of the bottom of society due to inability to work or fit into a nice role in the system and when some of us don’t fit, none of the systems people think of to ‘help’ are going to work when they’re within the same narrative. disabled people can’t work the same as a abled people, so what is a fair share of the profits? neither can addicts, at least not without help. and this group of people often do actually require more capital to have their needs met in ways your average working class person doesn’t. like I don’t want to invalidate your working class plight but. do we not remember centuries of shame when something befalls a relative causing them to fall into that category, be it at birth or later? do we not remember the people we locked up away from society? to those of us who have always existed and exist now, I love you. you deserve to have your voices heard and your needs met and your value not tied to your productivity. you deserve to be centred and not sidelined in these discussions and you deserve a new conceptualisation of how we create an equitable society. and while I don’t see that in mainstream yet I want to normalise as able, working to meet our own needs and then some for those we love who we can feed into the ecosystem and invest in. I want to normalise celebrating the work of existing and being present and staying alive and caring for yourself more than working to feed the economy. that’s work we can all do. and I want to be careful in saying this, but I want to normalise the idea that there is no leisure until we can all have liberation and sustenance. there is rest and reminding ourselves we’ve done enough and we are enough. but there’s no sitting back in comfort, which many of us raised in middle class lifestyles might be used to. not while part of society is still invisible.

Also another highlight of ER gameplay is how much Patches helped me without intending to (Fantomette don't read if you didn't find him yet)
So like I explored god knows how much and leveled and seen all kinds of caves yet, until I went down in the lake one (haven't killed dragon there yet, I am working on it). So there was that basic bitch boss cave ok? And I waited for like TEN DARN MINUTES for the boss to appear! TEN minutes!! I thought the game lagged so I gave up and decided to dig in the chest, and MOTHERFUCKING-
HE WAS THE BOSS HGKMKKGYHV LITERALLY THE LAST THING IN THE WORLD I EXPECTED!!!! PATCHES WAS A BOSS AAAAA
And so many years later he invented a new trick than just throwing the player off the cliff gfhfjgb And this time it is ACTUALLY player's fault because he didn't ask for help, nor gave advice, nor tossed shiny coins near the cliff, he just... left a chest near a place that looks like a camp, so it was ACTUALLY unfair to open it if you think of it. Damn, they made him have a point instead of being hostile when you didn't even do anything bad ;-; He's grown so much xD unlike his hair
As for how that helped me, I returned in that cave later. He wasn't there (later I learned if you take too long he leaves, so I had to see what he'd say in Youtube), but there was the trap chest. It teleported me in unfamiliar area but I already knew THIS kind of bears was dangerous, so I just snuck away for a bit... Found some sort of chapel, stepped on the round lift there, and it was just. Going down and down and down until it opened such a beautiful sight????
So apparently that took me into a super fun secret map UNDER the main map, it was so entertaining to explore! I could not stop taking the screenshots because there THE SKY AND THE COSMOS ARE THE ONE, and there I found those herbs I needed to craft the anti-madness boluses but had NO idea where to find. Also there were pillars I kept igniting and pillars on the way up the stairs, so when I found them all I got to fight a cool giant reindeer!
Basically the coolest adventure ever that would have missed out on if Patches didn't do his thing bykgjhgfg Because I honestly doubt I'd be able to find that spot on my own.
