The 16th issue of Weekly Shounen Jump of 2016, which will go on sale on March 19, has announced a third anime adaptation of the Haikyuu!! volleyball manga.

The manga by Haruichi Furudate was first adapted into a TV anime that ran for 25 episodes in 2014. That series was summarized in two compilation movies last year. A second season has been airing since October and will end on March 27.

The series recently won the 64th Shougakukan Manga Award for shounen manga.

As expected, this was the big announcement. I fucking love Haikyuu, so this is great news!
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

I just found out 10 minutes ago, and I've been losing my shit ever since!
I was worried for a second that this would be cutting it close with the manga, but then I remembered how far away Fall '16 actually is
so it'll be fine! I'm ready, so fucking ready.
I was also recently pretty bummed about season 2 ending soon, but now I actually know we're getting season 3 before the year ends, I am content.

I'm sure we'll be waiting a while though, so they can have enough to produce the usual 25 episodes for a series...

No surprise here. It was expected, at least from my side. Although not much looking forward to it; season 2 wasn't that impressive for me so my priority for season 3 is low.

Wow, surely they won't have enough source material for 25 episodes though, so it'll be 1 cour?

I hope this isn't the case though! I'd much rather wait for 25 episodes :)

YES. Looking forward for it.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Even if I was pretty sure, that we would get the 3rd season (it is extremely popular after all), I feared, that we'd have to wait till next year. But bless the anime gods, Fall 2016 is going to be awesome x3

Was expecting this but it's great to know that we're getting it this fast. The hype train never stops. :>

Though the anime will barely caught up with the manga by that time so the wait for S4 will definitely be long.

Still waiting for second season to finish so I can watch it all. I suppose this is good news, I mean it's not the worst show out, so I might actually try to watch it weekly this time.

Really excited for this! I love Haikyuu to death and I'm happy we'll have at least one sports Anime per season.

Also, fuck ANN for low key spoiling me on who wins the current match.

I know it was totally expected,but not that soon though? Nevertheless I'm super excited, Fall is already guaranteed to be good.

According to ANN: The season will begin with Karasuno High's match with


There will be enough content for the 3rd season- it will catch up with manga and will leave space for a 4th season as well.
That's kinda weird,since KnB had 3 seasons and covered the manga fully,as I heard. Meaning Haikyuu will be longer~

I didn't want a confirmation though ;A;

I mean, some sports anime (I'm not gonna list what) actually don't follow the cliche paths.

I'm not surprised, but I'm still ecstatic!! Given it's ending in two weeks, I was heartbroken since I won't have any ongoing sports anime to watch next season. The promise of Haikyuu!! 3 will get me through it though. :')

Well, it sure looks like it can go on for at least 4 seasons and I sure hope so. But like I said, the anime will be caught up with the manga by the time S3 done airing so it will take some time for S4 to come if it does get one.

In before the Karasuno-Shiratorizawa's match to take 12 episodes. -_- I really hope not. It was really dragged in the manga so I can see the anime dragging it too, even if we have good pacing in the matches.

They all do


I also think the word cliche in the sports genre is moot. They are all cliche with varying degrees, it's all about execution specifically in this genre imo.

And I'm not saying it's bad but it's quite nice when series can break it and go in an unexpected route.
