The best thing about Haikyuu is that when it is other schools' turn to compete, Furudate makes sure that he thoroughly captures the teams' exploits, strengths, and weaknesses instead of making it look like a simple summary of what they are capable of doing. You will never catch him making a well-decorated team too overpowered or a lesser team too weak. Any team can be a threat in Furudate's world, even when they're not in the national championship yet, as seen from how both Aobajohsai and Date Tech circle around each other during their game.
