"Nice receive" is obviously the highlight of this episode, and the season for me, but I wanted to talk about Atsumu and Osamu's conversation about hunger for food and volleyball.
Hunger for food and hunger for sports is a pretty obvious analogy, but I love how Osamu got into the psychology behind eating and passion for sports. Specially how addictive good food and success at sports can be, especially when you're lacking both.
It's a nice thematical callback to Bokuto's advice to Tsukishima on how beating a talented opponent and realizing your potential gets you hooked on volleyball.
Hinata is the personification of this passion, or hunger, for volleyball, so it's perfect to have the one character (Osamu) who his lack that hunger for volleyball recognize its infectious nature in their opponents.
