Haikyuu is my favorite sports anime. [haven’t watched hajime no ippo yet]
The show makes you the part of their teams [karasuno]. it makes you feels like we know the members like a friend or teammate. It is one of the consistent shows airing now

Haikyuu s4 had some problems but overall it is still really good.
There were some changes like in art. The art style is now more inclined to the manga. Most of the viewers doesn’t seem to like the new art style. I can agree with this, I also liked the old art style.
But if this is more similar to the manga, then I can’t complain more, usually every good show have art style similar to manga. So I was able to bear this.
Animation was also weak compared to previous seasons. This season was more like a training arc before the tournament so I hope they will improve the animation quality more in the second part.

[THE RATING SEEMS TO BE LOW FOM LAST SEASON, I THINK ITS MAINLY BECAUSE OF THE NEW ARTSTYLE, and animation was a little lesser in quality]

• Story 9 awesome
Story is very good. We feel the the pressure in the match even it’s a story. That makes it incredible.

• Art and animation 8 Pretty good. [THE REASON FOR RATING DECREASE]
Not a fan of the new art style, but is adapting to it slowly. I hope animation improves in second part.
I MISS THE OLD MID INTERVAL SCENES.

• Matches 9 awesome
We had one training match, which was really good. We also got the first stage matches of the tournament. They end this season in kind of a cliffhanger which keeps you hype for July.

• Sound 10 Outstanding
The osts are really good like always. The opening was awesome. Some new osts were really good.

• Character 9 awesome
Characters are one of the good things in Haikyuu. The series takes time to let us know the characters in the team really well. This season we got some major Hinata focus and developments.
We got more focus on Kiyoko, Tanaka, etc. more. We got introduced to some characters who can be major threats in the tournaments.

• Enjoyment 9 AWESOME
I enjoyed very season of Haikyuu. It is really consistent.
The change in art style in a thing I have to adapt to, especially when it is more similar to manga. Animation was weaker but not bad compared to many shows which have bad animations.

• Overall 9
A pretty solid season, ¾ was training arcs and the rest was the beginning part of tournament.
The training arcs are as good like always.


In short, apart from art style change and some animation laziness, this season of Haikyuu was also really good.
