As my favorite anime/manga of all time. Haikyuu has a very special place in my heart. I truly loved it from the first chapter right down to the very last.

So far this is my most fave story. Funny and Interesting plot, a good one I'll say. A good character growth will be seen and enjoyable to read. 100% recommended✔️ I was sad that it has to end but I guarantee it will never leave you hanging, you just to wish for more though.

The sign of a good manga is that I feel unable to put it down even if I'm telling myself that I probably should because I have other things I want to do. This held true for the vast majority of this manga. A recurring theme is that trying hard isn't lame, even in the face of almost certain defeat. The volleyball matches are exciting and intense. Hinata and Kageyama are the core of the plotline, with Kageyama's amazing ability to set the ball combining with Hinata's extreme athleticism to create a freaky quick set that plays a central role in their team's offensive strategies. Hinata's small stature is also something fe has to deal with. On that note, obviously height is an asset, but sometimes it's referred to as a "talent," which is an odd word choice.

I really enjoyed this manga. Haikyuu is really and addictive manga/anime and I really love it. This manga was a roller coaster of emotions. It made me happy, laugh, cry and excited. I'm really sad that this art will end tomorrow </3 (19/7/20) I really will miss the characters, the teams and the manga. Thank you Haikyuu

Plot/Story/Themes: The first thing I will say about Haikyuu's plot/storytelling is that it never allows itself to be too predictable; the manga consistently throws curve-balls at the reader, some big and some small. The first example of this is putting Hinata and Kageyama on the same team - obviously I knew this would happen, but if I had been reading this when it came out, or if I had gone in with 0 outside knowledge, it would have surprised me. I think the next big example is Karasuno losing to Blue Castle in their first match, which wasn't completely unpredictable (I went into the match knowing it was 50/50 on whether or not they'd win), but the standard/lowest common denominator way of doing things would have likely been to make Karasuno win that match and then hit Shiratorizawa at full momentum. Other examples of this include the reveal that the "Little Giant" quit volleyball after HS, having Hinata get injured and taken out of the game against Kamomedai, and the final twist of the tournament arc in which both Karasuno and Itachiyama lose in the quarterfinals. Regarding that twist, my first instinct was to say that it was a stupid idea, that it ruined all the narrative buildup of Karasuno reaching the finals and playing off against the #1 favorite team. However, on second thought, I don't actually mind it. It was used to build a decently interesting theme about defeat and how it can always be around the corner, even when you think you're the strongest sitting at the top of the mountain, someone stronger may come along and knock you down at any moment - and that's okay. That isn't to say I thought the twist was pulled off perfectly, I do still have some issues with it (mostly that Itachiyama and Sakusa's hype were never given a narrative payoff) and I think it could have feasibly been done in a better way. Somewhat related to the theme of sudden defeat, another aspect of Haikyuu's storytelling I enjoy is that the manga never makes it feel like Karasuno has very much plot armor, if any at all. This is done by giving them multiple losses throughout the story, whether those be minor losses in a game they will overall win or just complete losses. One of my favorite examples of this is when Tsukki's friend (I will never remember his name) tries to do a badass serve during the game against Blue Castle and he just straight ups fails, even though it was at a pivotal moment and he may have saved the game had he made it. Sometimes you lose even when you feel like you're "supposed" to win, and those moments of failure even after giving it your all are some of my favorite moments in fiction.

I'm going to preface this by saying, I'm not usually a fan of sports. I have no interest in real life sports, however, Haikyuu! brings something to the table that makes me keep coming back and anxious for the next chapter. I truly love this manga, the characters are well developed and believable as is the storyline. I also thoroughly enjoy the art.

I first came across Haikyuu on Facebook. I liked a Kuroko no Basuke page and it had pictures of artwork done in subway platforms to hype up the current season. However, there was also art of people playing volleyball as well. Being a former volleyball player myself I had to check it out. Then I found Haikyuu.

I love this series. It's hard to say why; it isn't very popular and there isn't anything special about it. There is the typical hot-blooded shounen hero who is a little ehh... on the IQ scale but is actually a hidden genius at the game and his dark-haired talented rival who initially clash in everything but gradually realises that they have things in common and work extremely well together to pulverise their enemies. Oh, and in true sport manga fashion, they are the underdogs. Does it sound a bit familiar?
