Haikyu!! is currently in production for its second anime movie, marking the end of the franchise. It’s impossible to cover everything that was intended due to the limited runtime. Previously, Haikyu concluded its TV anime series after Season 4. To the delight and disappointment of fans alike, it was announced that instead of a fifth season, the story would conclude with two feature films destined for the big screen. As anticipated, there’s simply not enough time to include everything planned.
Last year, the movie “Hailkyu!!: The Dumpster Battle” premiered globally as the initial part of a two-part conclusion for the anime’s grand finale. It portrayed the Nationals match between Karasuno and Nekoma High Schools, continuing directly from Season 4 events, and even included a post-credits scene hinting at the following game. However, there remains an entire final chapter of the series that may not be shown in the anime.
What’s Next for Haikyu’s Anime?
Haikyu is set to commemorate its 10th anniversary in anime with a special event slated for March, which may provide insights into how the series will conclude its storyline. This is one of two final projects under the title “Haikyu!! FINAL,” but specifics about this new animation are yet undisclosed. There might be mild spoilers from Haikyu: The Dumpster Battle and beyond, as Karasuno advances in the Nationals tournament, and a post-credits scene in the movie hints at the next match against Kamomedai High.
In the upcoming developments, following the conclusion of the Nationals, there’s a significant leap forward in time that takes us years into the future after Shoyo Hinata and his companions graduate from high school. The closing act of the series unfolds with an older Hinata honing his skills as he learns beach volleyball in Brazil, eventually transitioning to play as a professional. Fans are then gifted with a thrilling final match where Hinata competes against mature versions of characters familiar from earlier arcs.
Will Haikyu’s Anime Get to the Timeskip?
There’s been some uncertainty about whether the Haikyu anime will include a time skip or not, but hints have been dropped suggesting fans will witness matured versions of their favorite characters in action. During a 2024 Anime Expo panel with Production I.G., WIT Studio, and Signal MD, it was suggested that “everything” would be animated for the finale. The meaning behind this hint is still unclear, but it certainly points towards exciting developments. However, this also raises questions about what exactly lies ahead.
The anime adaptation of “Haikyu!!: The Dumpster Battle,” based on Haruichi Furudate’s original manga, concludes with Chapter 325. However, the series has a total of 402 chapters. This implies that the final movie will need to condense more than 70 chapters. Given that some content is bound to be skipped to focus on key moments, it’s unfortunate for fans of “Haikyu” as this might mean missing out on certain aspects of the story.
One standout feature of the series Haikyu!! lies in witnessing characters like Hinata evolve through their trials, and what makes it truly special is the interludes between matches that underscore these developments. This build-up intensifies when the actual game unfolds, leveraging the character progression we’ve seen thus far. Regrettably, the final 70+ chapters, which offer the most growth due to a time skip, might be overlooked in the anime adaptation because it may not have enough time to fully explore this critical phase. This is something that devoted fans may find disappointing as they anticipate the conclusion of the anime, knowing they’ll miss out on this crucial part of the story.
The acclaimed series “Haikyu!” from Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine merits a grand finale like those seen in popular shows such as “My Hero Academia.” Fans should have the opportunity to witness its climax unfold over several years, and enjoy weekly instalments leading up to it. Unfortunately, those who have only watched the anime may miss out on a significant portion of the grand conclusion. Though there’s a chance for a resolution that leaves fans satisfied, the reality is that “Haikyu!”‘s anime adaptation will leave much unexplored.
