Haikyuu!!

Really enjoyed this well-made anime on Volleyball, I didn't know much about the sports and its rules, didn't realize so much strategy went into it and how important team play is. The plot is your typical shounen sports stereotype, an underdog who excels with determination, along the way he makes friends and each one in the team is a standout specialist. The anime is well-paced and keeps things exciting all throughout, there is lots of humor to give you big laughs. The storytelling utilizes the full spectrum of emotions from losses to win, from giving up to never giving in, from timidity to overconfident, from solo play to teamwork, it covers each aspect of the gameplay with relevant emotions. Another good side to the anime is the realistic gameplay, no over the board plays, and super moves. The characters are all likable, one of the few anime without having any evil guy in it.

The anime itself is really good, got great art and colors. Did feel the music could have been better, nothing of it stands out in mind after a week of watching the anime.

It was enjoyable enough for Binge-watch, so hopefully, you get the idea. Season 1 & 2 both were great, after a break of 2 years, I have binged watched Season 3 & Part 1 of Season 4 also, again they were really good.

Can I just say that I freaking LOVE Haikyu.

The show itself is pretty simple. It follows the adventures of a boys' high school volleyball team, and it is a bit overdramatic at times, but it's so much fun!! It's hilarious, the characters are so easy to fall in love with, there's no constant peril or evil overlord or magical powers, it's just volleyball. It sounds pretty boring and stupid at first, but trust me, watch the first episode. You'll be blown away.

The production quality is super as well. They never get lazy with the animation. The funny bits are perfectly worked into the show without ruining the intense bits. Every single episode is completely and totally worth it.

I just don't really have much else to say. It's an amazing show all around.

I saw the great reviews and thought, how good can a volleyball manga be, the answer is a 11 out of 10! High flying action, great characters, excitement all the way through..... I could not stop watching! Exceeded every expectation I had about this show! I strongly advise you to stop reading this and go watch Haiku right now!

Had doubts watching this because I wasn't that much into voleyball but man oh man it's so entertaining now I am totally into it. You would like every character in this series even antagonists are hella nice, certainly a show to watch for sports lovers.

Excellent characters incomparable to other anime or other tv series for that matter. You connect with each one in a deep way that and you just want to be rooting for all of them, even the opponents. PS I've learned a lot about volleyball also thanks to this and it just makes me want to play!
