To be fair, there’s not much of a variety to volleyball unless you spice its fictional version a bit, but that is exactly what the author should have done, as the 45 volumes of unchanged formula with no points of interest are a drag to read.Īt this point some might object that the reason that I didn’t like Haikyuu is because I don’t like volleyball and therefore it’s my fault, not the authors. As someone who doesn’t care about volleyball at all, all of the matches felt the same. Practically speaking there is no story in Haikyuu, it’s just a string of matches with brief breaks in between mostly dedicated to training that is even less interesting as no matches. Haikyuu does neither of those – it only has relatively regular matches. You see, the major driving factor of most of sports anime and manga in terms of both plot progression and drawing the audience attention is either human drama, or insane over the top action, frequently one that non-drawn media could not hope to fully convey. Haikyuu is a bit of unusual sports series, though not in a good way. ![]() Haikyuu is like one of those porcelain dolls that can surely be found at your grandma’s place – it might look nice, but ultimately it lacks point and only takes up space. AND FOR INTRODUCING TO US THE WORLD YOU SAW. So if Oikawa can do it, so CAN you (reference from the future chaps).Īgain, this is not a review. "Rather than despairing and giving up because you're not a genius, believe that your strength is not limited to this and continue on the path straight ahead of you." - This line from Oikawa's scene has always kept me going. Hinata and Kageyama's story will always have a place in my heart. Truly a masterpiece that I hope will be remembered forever. Furudate really knows how to tug one's heartstrings. The character developments of each character is by far the best. The success and praise for this story is very well-deserved. Such a story foretold with so many life lessons and memories, I can't thank Furudate sensei enough. It feels as if I was saying goodbye to a dear old friend. And until the end, the emotions were still there. Haikyuu made me laugh, cry and feel so many emotions. I started this in college, and now I am also an adult like the characters. It is the first shounen and sports manga that I read and stuck with. I say long but it actually felt short now that it has ended. Just recently, the 8 long year journey has finally come to an end. ![]() I actually don't have the words worthy enough to give to Haikyuu, while it has given me so much. Now, Hinata must establish himself on the team and work alongside the problematic Kageyama to overcome his shortcomings and to fulfill his dream of making it to the top of the high school volleyball world. Hinata enrolls into Karasuno High School seeking to take revenge against Kageyama in an official high school match and to follow in the Little Giant's footsteps-but his plans are ruined when he opens the gymnasium door to find Kageyama as one of his teammates. However, his team is utterly defeated in their first game against the powerhouse school Kitagawa Daiichi, led by the genius, but oppressive setter dubbed the "King of the Court," Tobio Kageyama. Determined to reach great heights like the Little Giant, small-statured Hinata finally manages to form a team in his last year of junior high school, and enters his first volleyball tournament. The awe-inspired Shouyou Hinata looks on at the ace's crow-like figure. The "Little Giant," standing at only 170 cm, overcomes the towering net and the wall of blockers. A sport where two teams face off, separated by a formidable, wall-like net.
