I'm crying... Crying... So sad, that this season ends here. It was just so cool how Karasuno never gave up in fighting no matter how hopeless the situation is. I'm glad thay are the one that won the preliminaries. So happy for them.

I will miss this show like forever, I wish they would continue it to season 4 because this anime is just so good I can't get enough of it. I know the manga is already farther than this but somehow I can't get the same feeling of when I watch the anime then when I read the manga. Its just not the same.

I would give this season a 10/10 because of all that they've been through and watching this whole season with each episode being a clifhanger is quite tough and really exciting

I hope they would make season 4 because this anime is awesome

And so yet another amazing season of Haikyuu comes to an end. I'm not finished with this series!! I love it too much to stop!

I'm glad the boys were finally rewarded for all the labor they put in. Not only did they beat Aoba Johsai but they also even TOPPED that and defeated Shiratorizawa! They struggled for so long but they finally made it - I'm so happy for them :) No matter what happens now there's no taking this away from them. And they finally acknowledged Tsukki as the MVP!

This season delivered plenty of hype. The ending felt a little weaker compared to the rest of the series, but all that crying really was a cathartic moment. 9/10 from me - I'm gonna miss watching this.

The animation/style/directing, I don't know exactly what, was so different in some scenes of this episode! Not in a bad way at all, it reminded me a lot of anime movies instead of anime TV series. It has a lot to do with sound effects (less music and more of real sounds), too, and the way the camera pans out. Regardless of any difference, if there's something that Haikyuu!! always manage to do is make me feel like I'm right there with them. When they laugh I laugh, when they cry I cry, when the moments are tense I feel like I might burst with excitement.

There's nothing I would change. I'm very thankful for everyone involved in Haikyuu!!'s production, and, well, Furudate, obviously. :p

Actually, in my opinion there has been a lot of amazingly produced (I use this word interchangeably, but I mean also written, directed, etc) anime, with so much nuance and attention to the details. Haikyuu!! (all seasons) is no doubt one of the best representatives of this.

That's it, then. 10/10. Karasuno, fly!

pretty solid season, was the most intense one so far. (except maybe for the Aoba match) 8/10 for me


hmm Kageyama got invited to some sort of training camp...i have a bad feeling about it because maybe it will intervene with the future games or something. not sure when it is though, i doubt they would make the camp the same time as the games. but kinda sad that he was the only one who got invited...i can feel tension stirring up because of that. could be just me though

probably gonna be a while to next season but i hope they don't rush it

AHHHHHHHHHHH KARASUNO KARASUNO!!!!
Great finale episode. That final rally was so freaking intense. Congrats to Hinata on the winning Spike.

Congrats Karasuno on winning. I teared up a bit there.
So emotional seeing everyone crying. Kiyoko crying is so cute & sweet.

Round of applause to Shiratorizawa for being tough opponents.
Would love to see Kageyama & Hinata rematch with Ushiwaka.

Spring Inter High Tournament. LETS GOO!!!
Kageyama offered the chance at a National Training Camp.

WOW another fantastic & spectacular season. This final match was so freaking intense from start to finish. Everyone’s determination to win no matter what was amazing to see.

Tsukishima’s character development throughout the match was amazing. M.V.P for sure.

Congratulations to Production I.G. & everyone involved in the production of this anime. Such an awesome job. So sad it’s already over, but hopefully we get Season 04 within a year or so because I want to see Karasuno & some familiar teams at the Spring Inter-High.

Overall this gets a 9/10.

SEASON 4 is a necessity after that ending with Kageyama being selected for National training. Is it going to interfere with the Spring tournament?! If so what's going to happen to Hinata?!?!

GAH SEASON 4 please!!!!

Was Oikawa selected to the Japan national team?


*Kageyama

I think he was selected for the training camp of the youth national team yea

This training camp is only for 1st years. I don't know why they didn't mention that in the show. Also, there is a regional training camp for the best 1st years of the area. We have the Tokyo Qualifiers arc, then we have Nationals Training arc at these camps for the boys who got in or at karasuno for those who did not. The training camp arc drags on for a really really long time. I loved everything they do, but reading only one part a week was exasperating. I'm sure you guys will love reading it far more. Lots of development.

Don't expect season 4 anytime soon because the manga only got to the first Nationals match about two weeks ago.

So the training camp was only for the first years? did they mentioned it in the manga? haven't notice that. I thought that it was for 1st years and 2nd years.

Oh man this show got me so emotional ;_;

I have to agree that in this final tournament Tsukki is definitely the MVP because without him I doubt they can stop Ushijima's attack. Of course everyone did their best as well be it in physical attack or mental support.

Guess it'll be a while till the next season comes. So sooo gonna wait patiently for that.

Tsukiii MVP!!! Daichi, Nishinoya and Tanaka deserve some praise as well. I can't imagine how this match would've turned out without their constant support.

No S4 for a while it seems , since Suga's voice actor is going overseas to study next year T_T

What an incredible finale.

The battle for the last point was enthralling! But still not as good as penultimate episode of S2 against Seijo's team.

But damn, the animation and OST for the first half was so on point. It got me all revved up haha.
Also, I loved the symbolism of Ushijima (the eagle) pinning down Karasuno (crows) while the teammates helps them and fights together.

I found it funny how third years were rejoicing while crying out but the first years remained dumb founded after their victory XD

And yes, Tsukishima was indeed MVP of the match. Happy to see his character growth and the spotlight he was given in the season :D
I enjoyed Tsukishima and Tendo's reactions throughout the show. Dunno about others but watching Tendo and his antics during the match was fun lol

Overall, it was a good finale but sad HxH slipped in the rankings because of the anime D:

Tsukishima's development was amazing to see and it was great to see Nishinoya get his moments too.

Thank you for this amazing season. After reading the comments, it's too bad that they didn't put all the scenes with Shiratorizawa, but it was already so good.

Aghhhhh shouldn't have read the manga before watching this season. If I hadn't I probably would have enjoyed this ten times more :'(

Btw, I liked the after credits scene better in the manga. Should've done that in the next season so they wouldn't have had to rush it :<

I'll still rate this 10/10 'cause im biased lolololol I love you haikyuu <3 (Although I don't want to see it above hunter x hunter bc hxh's still the best :L)

This episode... no, this entire anime and not just this season but from the start 'til now is PURE GOLD. So much feels for a sports anime I thought I'd never feel since regardless of the sport it's centered on, it usually goes on and ends as if it's nothing new. But Haikyuu.... even if it still ended as all the others (with the main team winning) it still got my heart racing and feeling so tense just watching it!!

I really hope and actually expect a season 4 somewhere down the line. Maybe not anytime soon since I assume the manga doesn't have much content yet. I actually read the manga up to somewhere in the middle of the Shiratorizawa vs Karasuno match and stopped because it got too tiring waiting for an update. I'm glad I did since it made watching this season more of a suspense. I'm sure there isn't enough to make another season whether 1-cour or more. I'm willing to wait though. I love Haikyuu!! I give it a big 10/10!

I have so many mixed emotions. On one hand, I'm flailing over the scenes I love that were animated but so mad that they cut out one of my favorite scenes in this whole arc.

The anime staff must hate Shiratorizawa because they keep cutting out their scenes. They made Ushijima look like a monster and cut out the whole scene that showed just how important his team is to him. That scene made me cry and I was so looking forward to seeing it animated.



Anyone who wants to start the manga now, start from chapter 190.


Honestly, after reading the manga I did not get very much emotionally invested in Shiratorizawa, but the anime creators seem to really ill-treat the team. The boys did not get enough screentime (background stories, interactions). In the manga I sincerely admired Tendou's abilities despite his creepiness, but in the anime he appeared even repelling at times.

By the way, what's your fav. scene that you mentioned? :)




I really liked his creepiness.

They may actually show that in the first episode of S4 though. I know it doesn't make much sense but I refuse to believe that they'll skip it just like that.

P.S. Keep in mind that what they showed in the last scenes were things that happened in chapter 207... so yeah :D

Yahoo! Kageyama, congrats for getting one step closer to being in National team. Kageyama setting for Ushiwaka, Japan team would be invincible, eh? I don't know if the author will ever be writing something like that, so I'll just post my idea of best team here:
Kageyama, Ushiwaka, Nishinoya, Aone, Kuro, Bokuto, Hinata/Lev.

Hehe, probably because they want to show the senpais helping out the juniors. Also, Kageyama is actually on another level altogether, he doesn't feel intimated ever (except when facing Oikawa).
