Haikyuu and dialects safe for new japanese reader?

@Jonapedia

Anyway, thanks a lot! In that case, I retract what I said about the ‘main non-standard dialect’ being the Kansai dialect.

There are still instances of Kansai-Ben that come up because of people from there but also because kids can think it’s cool to use Kansai phrasing.

ハイキュー・Haikyuu! (Beginner Book Club) - Week 3

@crayfish actually answered it above but you have to click the link: ～てなんぼ , where なんぼ is a kansai-ben version of いくら) is a little slangy set phrase that means “to be worthy only if ～”, “to be meaningless without ～” or “to be all about ～ing” More specifically: バレーボールは繋いでなんぼ大事のは - the important thing about volleyball is that it’s all about “connecting” (roughly translated)

But really, I think the way that kids in general speak is going to be harder to parse than any dialectical stuff.
