How is it so god damn hard to dislike any character in Haikyuu?

What's with the 190cm (6'2") at the end of the chapter? I checked back at the beginning of this arc and it says that Hoshiumi/Hinata are both about 173cm (roughly 5'8") yet this chapter has the 190cm at the end as if to imply that's Hoshiumi's height which doesn't make much sense as 190cm is still fairly tall even in volleyball.

@WUJUM i think it's implying that despite hoshiumi's short stature, his midair skills are top notch and that makes people feel that he's as big as others normally.
since in the world of top volleyball, 190 cm is usually the height minimum of OHs pros. even then 190 cm is considered as short. normally you see that they're around 2 meters tall. granted, this is japan pro league, so what they consider tall is around 190 cm. but if this is Italian League, or others high level league, hoshiumi and hinata might have harder time fighting the tall guys

 

[WUJUM]

@RayneForest, that makes sense. Thanks for the explanation.

"Being short is a disadvantage, but it doesn't hold anyone back".

Run that by me again? Because I think that's the very definition of a disadvantage.
