to be first, to be best by kittebasu is an Iwaoi Haikyuu fanfic. It was written for riots during the Inter High Exchange 2014.
Summary
Hajime is apparently something of a masochist, and as he stares down at the tie-dyed AREA51 T-shirt in his hands, he thinks “I’m totally in love with this asshole, aren't I?”
Reception
As of May 2021 the work has over 22,000 kudos and over 6600 bookmarks on AO3. It is the fourth most popular Haikyuu work on AO3 by kudos and second most popular by bookmarks after In Another Life, a Bokuaka fic.
this is one of the first iwaois i’ve read and it’s the epitome of brilliantly written slow build. fantastic writing, amazing buildup, i adore everything about this fic. i just take it as the canon continuation of iwaoi after hs basically.[1]
This is hands down one of my fav Iwaoi fics ever. It feels so realistic to their relationship on the show and it so fluffy but also some angst ugh its just so cute. Basically Oikawa moves in w/ Iwa after he blows up his kitchen and things go from there.[2]
