Reader’s Question:
I have a question about Haikyuu. I’m currently watching the anime, and I think I’m in the second season. The story is in the middle of the match between Oikawa and Kageyama during the Spring High qualifiers. I heard there are more anime episodes and movies. If I watch
everything, will the storylines all connect? Also, the manga is already complete. After watching all the anime and movies, which volume of the manga will I be around? I noticed in the manga that Hinata has grown up and looks a bit muscular. I guess that’s what happens to athletes as they mature, but it was a bit shocking. Hinata is so cute! Please, no spoilers! Thank you!
My Thoughts on Haikyuu!
So, I totally get where you’re coming from with your Haikyuu! journey. It’s such a fun ride—like, I remember the first time I saw Hinata bounce around the court, all that energy! It’s infectious. And Oikawa? What a character! His charisma is off the charts. I can’t help but giggle at all the little rivalries and friendships that develop throughout the series. Now, when it comes to your question about the anime and movies, I think you’re in for a treat. The anime does a fantastic job of connecting the storylines, and while there are some films, they mostly expand on the characters and their backstories rather than altering the main plot. It feels like a bonus more than anything else, you know? It’s like getting extra fries with your burger—why not? As for the manga, it’s such a fulfilling experience to dive into after finishing the anime. I won’t spoil anything for you, but I can say that Hinata’s growth is something that really hits home. Seeing him mature, both physically and as a player, is like watching your own kid grow up. It’s bittersweet but also super rewarding. And trust me, you’ll be cheering for him every step of the way! I remember when I was watching the series—I got so invested that I ended up binging a bunch of episodes in one sitting. I think I got a bit too comfortable on the couch with snacks all around me. You know, “just one more episode” turned into a full-on marathon. And yes, I definitely regretted it the next day! Anyway, I’d love to hear what your favorite moments are so far! Have you had any characters that made you laugh out loud or even cry? Let’s share those experiences—after all, that’s what makes this journey so special, right?
