Hello! :) I just recently finished watching Haikyuu!! (I watched all three seasons in just 4-5 days because of how addicting it was! :'D) so I checked to see if there was a survey posted here and I couldn't find one so I thought I should make one! :D Feel free to post your answers, if you wish! :)

[Credit for most of these questions belongs to http://viria.tumblr.com/post/82572575344/30-day-haikyuu-challenge because I chose 9 of my favorite questions out of the 30 from here lol, but the 10th question was something I thought of myself!]

1) Favorite character?
2) The character you first fell in love with.
3) The character you gradually warmed up to.
4) Favorite friendship?
5) Favorite animal presentation? (crow, cat, eagle, owl, etc.)
6) Character that touched you the most?
7) Character that underwent the most development?
8) Character you want to be friends with?
9) Favorite uniform?
10) Overall thoughts on Haikyuu?
_______

1) Favorite character?

Kuroo, Nishinoya, Tsukishima.

2) The character you first fell in love with.

Nishinoya.

3) The character you gradually warmed up to.

Oikawa.

4) Favorite friendship?

This is a hard one because I actually have a lot of favorite friendships. Dx But this is my top three: Hinata-Kageyama, Hinata-Kenma, and Oikawa-Iwaizumi.

5) Favorite animal presentation? (crow, cat, eagle, owl, etc.)

Cat. I think I just love the fact that pretty much all the Nekoma High volleyball players have a cat-like eyes. I don't know if it's a coincidence or on purpose, but I love it, haha! :D

6) Character that touched you the most?

Oikawa, Tsukishima, and Aone.

7) Character that underwent the most development?

Tsukishima and Yamaguchi.

8) Character you want to be friends with?

Nishinoya. He just seems so fun to be around with! :)

9) Favorite uniform?

Nekoma High.

10) Overall thoughts on Haikyuu?

This was my first sports anime, so I wasn't sure what to expect going in but the first episode of season one was enough to get me hooked (especially because of what happened at the end LOL) and I just binged it in a few days! It's definitely filled with lovable characters with great character developments (can't really think of anyone I don't like), stunning animations, intense matches, awesome first OP in S1, and it made me feel so many feels! Can't wait for season 4!! :'D

I too loved Haikyuu!!

1) Oikawa (that's a tough one)

2) Hinata of course lol

3) Kei (I feel like I have the most basic answers lol)

4) Hinita and Kageyama

5) Definitely the eagle. It was a perfect representation of the team.

6) Kei. While Hinata had ALOT of really great moments, Kei takes the cake. That moment in the third season was so cool!

7) Skill development - Hinata. Character development - Kageyama

8) Azumane

9) Any uniform that Shimizu wears lol

10) Fantastic. I don't like sports outside of anime and I've never even come close to being interested in volleyball, but that just goes to show how good this anime is. It took a topic that I wasn't intrest in at all and made it approachable and enjoyable. The characters where near-perfect and the art was awesome (even better than the manga!).

10) Overall thoughts on Haikyuu?
Great show with great visuals, characters, plot, development etc... But lacked realism is terms that professional sports are much more difficult and take much more time to master... Not only that but people have different abilities and learn at different rates... In the Karasuno team even the nonexistent 1st years magically became on par with the 3rd years... Everyone on the team seems to improve at an insane rate which isn't realistic at all... The actual suffering that is gone through in order to reach great heights takes months if not years in any sport, yet it took them only takes them a couple weeks to get good enough to beat a top school even with their captain missing... I'm also athlete in a specific sport myself for almost 10 years, the representation of the training of athleticism, progression in mastery of skills and so on is not accurate... Otherwise the series is a 8-9/10 for me...

Pretty boring to be honest, most of the characters were meh, Hinata was annoying as hell, I didn't care about most of the matches and the music might as well not exist. There were some characters I liked and matches I enjoyed, but other than that it was pretty meh.. Could've been worse, but I have mixed feelings and I don't really get the hype. Kuroko>>>

Inb4 this gets moved.

1. Favorite character?

God. Um. MH. Probably Daichi.

2. The character you first fell in love with.

Nishinoya. Of course.

3. The character you gradually warmed up to.

Tsukishima. That character arc yooo.

4. Favorite friendship?

Friendship? lol. Nishinoya and Tanaka if that's the case.

5) Favorite animal presentation? (crow, cat, eagle, owl, etc.)

The Crows.

6) Character that touched you the most?

Asahi. I understood his ambivalence on continuing something you failed with extremely.

7) Character that underwent the most development?

Tsukishima and Kageyama by a long shot.

8) Character you want to be friends with?

Kenma.

9) Favorite uniform?

Karasuno. Either version.

10) Overall thoughts on Haikyuu?

It was the first sports anime I had ever truly went for, it really changed my entire mind on it because of the cast having me fall in love with the sport. Is it the most original or anything of that nature. Heck no. But it's very emotionally moving and damn impressive that it made me fall in love with the entirety of the cast the way it did.

Now if only we didn't have to wait another year or two for that s4.

Thank you for answering! :) And I totally agree with you on Oikawa! I wasn't fond of him at first but I really began to understood his character and warmed up to him after his backstory was shown and he's now in my top ten favorite characters of Haikyuu. :)

(1) - Kageyama.
(2) - Uh, Kageyama i guess?
(3) - Hm. Not sure, i generally liked all the characters from the start. If i had to pick, i'd say Tsukki.
(4) - Hinata and Kageyama
(5) - Dont really get it tbh, or never really paid attention to it.
(6) - Yachi, or Yamaguchi. Their goals were a lot more realistic to me, simply because im not a sports guy. I love all the characters, and all of them touched me, but because Yachi and Yama were closer to me i feel they touched me the most.
(7) - Tsukki by far.
(8) - Probably Yamaguchi.
(9) - Shiratorizawa. I liek Purple.
(10) - Far exceeded my expectations. I never thought i could love a sports anime in general, let alone have it become one of my favorite series of all time.

1. Oikawa, hands down.

2. Also Oikawa.

3. Kageyama. I found him to be a bit irritable at first, and by a bit I mean “rather irritating”, but he really softened on me as time went on

4. Hinata & Kageyama, Bokuto and Akaashi, and Kenma and Kuroo, also love Oikawa and Iwaizumi’s friendship but that should go without saying

5. Nekoma’s cat. cats are basically my fav animal tied with dogs.

6. Oikawa’s arc, Suga, and Yamaguchi

7. All of them have development periods, but again it was probably Kages transformation from pompous douche to team player that I enjoyed the most, as well as anything Oikawa focused

8. lmao I’d be friends with almost all of them bye

9. Fukurodani’s muted black/white/pale yellow scheme is nice, and Dateko’s green is magnificent. All their uniforms are great tho

10. Literally one of my fav series of all time

1) Favorite character?
Kenma!

2) The character you first fell in love with.
I want to say Kenma but it was definitely Oikawa lol

3) The character you gradually warmed up to.
Tendou - I really didn't like him in the manga but S3 changed my mind lol

4) Favorite friendship?
Toooooo many but top 3: Kenma-Hinata, Tsukishima-Hinata, and whatever the hell the relationship between Yahaba-Kyoutani is lol

5) Favorite animal presentation? (crow, cat, eagle, owl, etc.)
Cat, 100%

6) Character that touched you the most?
Tsukki man, he just,,, he's changed so much

7) Character that underwent the most development?
Tsukishima obviously - and I think for how many episodes he got, Kyoutani was well developed as well

8) Character you want to be friends with?
(All of them) TBH Kenma because he's really the only character I think I could chill out with.

9) Favorite uniform?
Aoba Josai or Nekoma

10) Overall thoughts on Haikyuu?
It's my favourite sports anime. I think, for a sport that isn't all that interesting to watch irl, Haikyuu did it well. While things are exaggerated, nothing is too far from the realm of reality and the characters are all likeable in their own right. The OPs are amazing too. I don't want to ramble too much but it's a fantastic anime and it makes me want to go out and play volleyball.

1) Nishinoya, Yachi & Daichi respectively.
2) Nishinoya from the very first appearance to till ever!
3) Oikawa, Kageyama & Tsukishima.
4) Hinata - Kageyama, Nishinoya - Tanaka, Daichi - Sugawara - Asahi & Kenma - Kuroo.
5) Definitely Eagles (Ushijima - Shiratorizawa) and Crows ganging up hype moments (Karasuno).
6) Asahi, Nishinoya, Daichi, Tsukishima, Hinata, Yamaguchi, Tendou and many more!
7) Tsukishima & Kageyama leagues above the others, in all honesty.
8) Nishinoya, Tanaka, Yachi, Shimizu, Lev, Daichi; Actually, you know what - All!
9) Karasuno - Nishinoya's 'All Black Statement' really hits home! Shiratorizawa's gets a honorable mention from here.

10) Overall, an awesome, engaging and frantic show! Season 1 is one of my very favourites with the consequent two up there in the top tier list too, so I suppose that speaks volumes by itself! Can't wait for Season 4! Seriously, can't wait!

I feel like I could add in a few more questions to this already great set of questions so here goes:

11) Favourite matchup in the anime franchise thus far?
Absolutely Dateko vs. Karasuno! It truly was something else out of this world in my opinion. Nishinoya and Asahi in particular blasting through the iron wall for the pay-off after everything in stake and whatnot really was a blast to watch, I suppose it's mainly because of this match in the first place that I consider Season 1 to be the best of the franchise!

12) Favourite (Actual, not Fujoshi-like not implied whatsoever) Ship?
Easily Michimiya x Daichi but a special shoutout to Yachi x Hinata and Shimizu x Sugawara too! Needless to say, these three are just glorious and I honestly can't wait to see more interactions between these characters!

13) Favourite Opening:
Definitely "HikareAre" much thanks to the exhilarating visuals plus BURNOUT SYNDROMES! God, those Crows vs Eagles representations though.

14) Favourite Ending:
"Climber", Galileo Galelei with his A-game! "Leo" ED 2 by tacica with a close second though. Visual-wise, ED 4 was easily the best!

15) Favourite Soundtrack:
Yuki Hayashi is bloody amazing, first and foremost. But the one soundtrack that just about tops any other from the series for me is "Frustration" or "Chagrin". Listening to the extended 30 minutes video of this on repeat on YouTube is a serious bless! "Above" or "Ue", "Team Potential" or "Chimu no Jikiri", "Direct Confrontation" and so many more, this show has really got one of the finest and most fitting Soundtrack!

Woww That seems really interesting 😆😆

1)Favorite character :hinata!!!! Followed by Nishinoya and oikawa!

2)Character you first fell in love with :Nishinoya definitely. I loved that guy from first sight!

3)Character you gradually warmed up to:
Mmmm I'm not so sure I mostly liked everyone from very early. Maybe yamaguchi?? I didn't care for him very much at the start but he certainly grew on me later!
And if we are talking about manga then I would say


4)favorite friendship : Hinata and kageyama!!! They just understand each other the best out of all the others!!

5)Favorite animal representation :I guess the crows...they are the only ones that really stand out to me and I also never get tired of all the symbolisms they do 😊

6) Characters that touched you the most :Tsukishima, Oikawa, Hinata definitely... and I will also say Nishinoya for an upcoming moment of his😄

7)Character that underwent the most development :Tsukishima and Kageyama!!!!

8)Characters you want to be friends with :I think suga and Ashahi would make really good friends as they are both kind and really nice😊😊
Also hinata is very sociable so I can definitely see us being friends

9)Favorite uniform :Would it be too obvious to say karasuno 😅I just love the black uniforms!!!!

10)Thoughts one haikyuu :
One of my absolute favorite series and I don't see that charging anytime soon!!!
I absolutely love haikyuu from animation to soundtrack to story to comedy to development to everything
But the biggest selling point for me is definitely the characters!!! They are all just so likable/interesting and bounce of each other soooooooo well
Definitely one of the best all around assembled cast I have seen!!!

1) Favorite character?

yamaguchi (✿˶˘ ³˘)~♥



how do you even pick a favourite in haikyuu..... and i thought it doesn't need to be mentioned that everyone's favourite is hinata x)

2) The character you first fell in love with.

i always thought it would be kageyama (even appearance-wise), but it was actually hinata, he was just so likeable & inspiring!

in terms of appearance-wise, terushima, he has the kind of look i go for in a guy ˘ ³˘



3) The character you gradually warmed up to.

tsukki!!!!!! initially did not take a liking to him as i felt he was overly bitter/unfound confidence, but his back story and his arc in season 3 was one of my favourite & best moments in haikyuu!



4) Favorite friendship?

noya x everyone

yachi x hinata x kageyama these 3 are so cute!



5) Favorite animal presentation? (crow, cat, eagle, owl, etc.)

crows! the imagery & symbolism of them being the fallen crows were very strong

6) Character that touched you the most?

ennoshita, his back story was so relatable & real



7) Character that underwent the most development?

definitely tsukki/yamaguchi

8) Character you want to be friends with?

HINATA!!!!!! his attitude is contagious & his cheerful personality would definitely rub off on me!

9) Favorite uniform?

nekoma in their school uniform





10) Overall thoughts on Haikyuu?

i have only seen up to season 3 & am trying to catch up with the series before october's release & so far i think it's incredibly well-made, from its art & sound direction to its well-written characters. it set a really high benchmark for sports anime for me! i was actually recommended to watch this by a friend of mine who plays volleyball professionally & she loves it! my first sports anime was actually free! & i usually watch shoujo, josei, romcoms, and this really widened my eyes to how amazing, epic, well-written, INSPIRING, a shounen sports anime can be! thanks to haikyuu, i am definitely interested in other shounen sports anime now such as kuroko no basket!

haikyuu can definitely be enjoyed by everyone, the characters are so likeable & well-written with touching back stories, incredible passion & drive & they inspire me so much & put a smile to my face. it's also one of the few animes i can binge through like mad, it's that addictive! it has also made me interested in volleyball as a sport, i usually only watch competitive swimming/basketball, but this anime actually did a great job explaining & showing volleyball to its common viewer. of course, much of it is dramatized but hey it's an anime & i'm definitely in for the ride! i can definitely see why it's so well-loved ♥







but i’ll probably remember over and over again
you were there and everyone else was there

1) oikawa, nishinoya, hinata
2) nishinoya
3) kageyama
4) hinata - kenma
5) has to be Karasuno crows. The whole clipped crows thing is so cool to me
6) oikawa
7) tsukishima
8) nishinoya, but also kenma
9) shiratorizawa
10) watched the first ~10 eps months ago and got bored, started it again on a whim and binged the first three seasons in about a week. It was my first sports anime, so I had low expectations, but I fell in love with the characters and loved all of the intense moments. At the moment it's a 9.5/10 in my top 15, and I don't expect it to rise but it definitely won't be dropping that quickly either. Basically I love this anime.

1) Fav character- Kageyama Tobio
2) Kageyama was the first character I loved cause I see so much of me in him, with getting misunderstood due to not being able to convey your feelings properly and actually having nightmares of hurting people and the guilt that comes with it. And it's just so comforting to see him succeed and grow in life.
3) Ushijima. At first I thought he was hella cocky but he turned out to be an absolute sweetheart (and his cockiness is actually well deserved).
4) I love all the friendships in Haikyuu cause of how wholesome they are but if I had to choose one, it will be our main duo's, only cause we got to see the friendship being built gradually. I don't think they'll still call each other as friends but they have the ultimate faith in each other regardless.
5) Ravens. I loved the analogy presented of how crows just adapt and survive no matter what environment they are when they were learning from all the teams in the 2nd season Tokyo training arc.
6) Again Kageyama with how he is misunderstood by others and Tsukishima with his realist/passive attitude and him realising that the intangible things like the feeling of teammates having your back or "that moment" are worth all the work.
7) Hinata in terms of his volleyball skills, with starting as a newbie with no skill to an monster on the court, from the guy who just wanted to spike to the desire to be best at everything. Emotionally, I'll say Kageyama from a sweet little boy to angry teenager with nowhere to go to gradually understanding letting go of control and teamwork to a servant who will follow all orders to calm Kageyama to actual "King of the Court". Then there is Tsukishima going from its just a club to falling in love with volleyball to actually being so passionate about it that while being really good at studies he decided to choose volleyball as his profession. And lastly Oikawa, going from I'm not good enough as I'm not a genius to stop worrying about what he could have been to trying to better himself and the being the best version of himself.
8) Sugawara senpai cause he is so caring while being so sassy. And Miya Atsumu cause he is one of the funniest characters in the series especially in the last arc of the Manga.
9) Shiratorizawa's, Aoba Joshai's and Inarizaki's uniforms.
10) I just adore the show. It's my comfort watch. I have a huge smile on my face the entire time I watch it (barring the tears a few times).

1. Nishinoya and Azumane
2. Tanaka
3. Azumane
4. Oikawa-Iwaizumi, Azumane-the girl's volleyball captain (i forgot her name lol)
5. Don't really like it
6. -
7. Tsukishima
8. Nishinoya, Azumane, Kuroo
9. Date Tech
10. I like sports, and sometimes watch football (soccer) or badminton. I also like volleyball, although i don't really play it, i've only play volleyball in PE class back in my school days. But i don't really like sports anime, same with Haikyuu, bcs there's a lot of slow motion, and especially lots of shouting techniques names. You don't have to say Synchronized Attack everytime you gonna do it, eventho you don't really "say" it. Yeah there's quite amount of flaws that i didn't enjoy while watching this particular season. I enjoyed the training session more than the match tbh lmao. Overall a quite decent show but there are some stuff that i didn't like. I gave the first 2 seasons an 8, but i can't give this season more than a 7

7) Character that underwent the most development?
Tsukishima

Karasuno's uniform.

10) Overall thoughts on Haikyuu?
Easily my favourite sports anime and one of my all time favourite shows. I didn't think I would like it that much, as I wasn't very interested in volleyball but tried it anyway because I kept hearing such good things about it and I was hooked from the very first episode. I'm going to read the manga as soon as I get my copy of the last volume.

1) Favorite character?
Tsuki, Oikawa, Kuroo, Ushijima, Bokuto

2) The character you first fell in love with.
Tsukki. I relate so much with him and I love how he interacts with others. My love for him didn't waver at all.

3) The character you gradually warmed up to.
Kageyama and Tanaka. I thought one was a regular edge lord and the other a regular loudmouth. But I like them a lot now, there's dept to both of them.

4) Favorite friendship?
Weirdly, I love the friendship of the two schools (is that allowed), Nekoma and Karasuno. There's such nice positive rivarly there and they are the reason why they had such a nice training camp last season.
For human friendships I liked: Karasuno third years, Kuroo-Bokuto-Tsukki, Tanaka-Noya, Aone-Hinata, Bokuto-Hinata.

5) Favorite animal presentation? (crow, cat, eagle, owl, etc.)
Though choice since I'm a huge bird person and a cat owner, but I'll go with the crow presentation.

6) Character that touched you the most?
Everyone had their moments depending on the episode/match, so rather hard to pick.

7) Character that underwent the most development?
Tsukki. There's such a contrast to how he started in s1 to s3. A lot of characters had to push him till he finally got fired up. This is also why he hasn't changed as my favourite. Yamaguchi is also right there next to him in terms of development.

8) Character you want to be friends with?
Any of these: Kuroo, Tsukki, Bokuto, Suga, Daichi.

9) Favorite uniform?
Karasuno. Black looks cool after all. Nekoma also has a fine uniform

10) Overall thoughts on Haikyuu?
I avoided it due to artstyle for YEARS and I regret it now since I'm blown away. Certainly the best sports anime I've seen.
