Wow. I really did not expect to fall down the rabbit hole that is Haikyuu!! I thought that the art style isn't one that I usually gravitate to but I was quickly won over by the story and characters. I loved all of the characters and their relationships and friendships with each other and it was inspiring to see the underdog climb to the top, that even though it seems as if one is disadvantaged, they can still succeed through sheer willpower and by working together with like-minded passionate people. Honestly, watching this made me regret not taking volleyball seriously during PE in high school.
This is anime leaves me speechless, seriously. It's just so brilliantly done. Some episodes pass by really quickly because you enjoy them that much and some episode feel twice as long because of the shows brilliant pacing. This anime has brilliant comedy, I swear I've laughed so many times. I've also cried too. If this anime was more popular I swear it has the quality to be a top anime. Imagine an Anime that makes you laugh when you're sad and makes you cheerful when you're bored, just imagine an anime that makes reading this review totally worth every word. If you decide not to watch this show then you are seriously missing out. This is the only show I would call perfect. 10/10
This anime is very brilliantly crafted. Compelling characters, beautiful and strong openings, natural comedy and superb animation makes this anime a must watch. 10/10
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.

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!
