Haikyuu!! Tokushuu! Haru-kou Volley ni Kaketa Seishun

(Quick Review)

This OVA was short episodes that showed the important teams that participated in the qualification matches before the nationals. We see each team on what they think or feel about the other teams or about the qualification matches like Datekougyou, Aoba Jousai, Shiratorizawa and Karasuno and how each match went for them and how Karasuno won the qualification and we see how Nekoma will be ready for Karasuno for their match in the nationals.

So this was basically a really quick recap within 20 minutes if you want to watch it before the new seasons, and I think it was ok.

Story 7/10

Character 7/10
Enjoyment ... 7/10
Overall 7/10

It's pretty decent for a recap episode. It stitches together events in an interesting way and includes interviews to get more insights into how the characters were thinking, which seems particularly helpful for those that lost. I think it missed opportunities to flesh out more of their opponents and, since there is no new story here to trod, it just feels like it's filling to space and refreshing memories for anyone who hadn't seen the previous three seasons in a while. As someone who is binging this series, I can't say I was invested in this, but the character moments were good. Worth watching regardless, ... but nothing particularly special.
