TOHO animation’s YouTube channel has released another trailer for Haikyu!!: Decisive Battle at the Garbage Dump, packed with enthralling volleyball animation, just two days before its February 16 debut in Japanese theaters.
The last Haikyu!! anime was Haikyu!! To The Top, the series’ fourth season, in 2020. In 2022, an announcement revealed that there would be a two-part Haikyu!! Final movie. The first season of the show aired in 2014.
Haikyu!! is based on the Shueisha-published manga by Haruichi Furudate, which was serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2012 to 2020 and is collected into 45 tankoubon volumes. Viz Media describes the manga as:
After losing his first and last volleyball match against Tobio Kageyama, “the King of the Court,” Shoyo Hinata swears to become his rival after graduating middle school. But what happens when the guy he wants to defeat ends up being his teammate?!
