A Manga Legacy
Haikyu!! originated as a manga series created by Haruichi Furudate, serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from February 2012 to July 2020. The story of Hinata’s determination and growth quickly resonated with readers and viewers alike. It’s worth noting that Haikyu!! ranks among the best-selling manga of all time, with over 60 million copies in circulation globally. The series also received recognition, winning the shonen category at the 61st Shogakukan Manga Awards in 2016.
Anime Adaptation
The journey of Haikyu!! extended to the anime world, with Production I.G. bringing Furudate’s work to life. The initial anime adaptation ran for three seasons from April 2014 to December 2016, chronicling the efforts of Hinata and his teammates as they aimed for the National Volleyball Tournament. The sequel series, Haikyu!! To The Top, premiered in January 2020, offering a glimpse into the National Tournament’s challenges.
The Final Chapter: The Haikyu!!
Final project aims to provide a fitting conclusion to the anime’s narrative.
