I'm just amazed that someone who plays at the highest level is just here on youtube chilling and watching stuff with us. It's so surreal to hear "oh it's us."

[shirsl]

He's like a Volleyball playing Bob Ross, he's so chill

[littlechris]

didn't expect this man can talk in a such soothing and relaxing tone

[joeystablein]

someone once tried to convince me that libero was the easiest position. i switched spots with him for a day, i’m a libero, and he stopped talking

[khoirzwagery]

"Thats something you gotta watch for from brazil"
ah yes if i have the chance i will certainly remember it

[thefilthydjinn]

"Some one ought to go for that." "Somebody should have covered that" the quintessential libero.

I love how you give us the behind the scenes, how Ishikawa practices fake hit set, and how you guys tried setting a hitter on first contact (failing a bunch) to get it work. It communicates hard work and practice vs "talent".

[PurityXD]

You always talk about "wow he's only a couple inches taller than me thats crazy", i was anticipating something like 5'9 or 5'10

You're 6'1???

[SurfandSand]

Wow. I remember watching Erik playing around with his brother when they were about 5 years old in Klum gym while my friends and I were playing; they were already super good players as little kids. Super awesome to see how great of a player he's become.

[caiocabral]

I see the title and thought: oh no one more clickbait
Than I saw the name of the channel and recognized Shoji from USA national team and: WHY HE HAS A CHANNEL?

[seldenlaboucan]

I love his reactions. 🤣 “I don’t know if that was a smart play...”

[collinrohr]

It's so cool to see videos like this. You get a perspective on professional volleyball that is so humanizing. The talk of other players and their habits is so casual and cool to see the perspective of a professional player off the court and who they actually are.

[thesureshot]

I love the deep inhales when Erik is watching. It's almost like he's in the game that he's watching every time!

[Gianggiangvn]

OMG, I just found out your channel by chance, and I'm really excited to see you ^^

[sdepountis]

The amazing thing about Lucas is that no matter what the first ball is, he's always up there, available for the setter. He is amazing athletically.

[jasminetapia]

I love how your competitiveness shows you get when you see the highlights of Brazil or Japan! I can definitely relate I used to be a libero lol the hype is always real.

[timtimchaazn]

Ishikawa and nishida play was definitely my top favorite play of the year! Literally

[lincolneyar]

a lot of these were presence-of-mind plays but i still enjoyed the reaction we need more haha

[jackiehayes-authenticonly]

Thank you Erik for doing this, is very smart, you know all the players

[markjaysonsirue]

"Oh its us" and "it finally work!" One of the highlights of this video. Supporting team USA 🇺🇸 from PH 🇵🇭! and you're my inspiration that's why my position in volleyball is libero! 🙌🏼. More volleyball content E.Shoji! 🔥
