What's great about this show (besides being volleyball-beginner friendly and amazing character-work) is that, despite it's realism, the stakes feel as high as any shounen nekketsu. A must-watch in my humble opinion.

Haikyu is the japanese word for volleyball although it's not used as much now these days. I actually didn't care about volleyball at all prior to watching this show. Now I play pick up volleyball 2-3 times/week and it's all because of Haikyu!! It's truly an exceptional experience. Haikyu!! was so impactful in Japan that it reversed the dying volleyball scene in the country. Most of the Japanese players have watched it and are fans of the show. They even played the different openings at the Tokyo Olympics during Japan's games. It is truly one of the most tangibly influential anime out there right now.

But ever since the manga and anime of Haikyuu was made, it made a huge impact to the country and the popularity of the sport increased.

Haikyuu is definitely a great feel-good show to watch in between darker shows. It has masterful character work (the blond guy with glasses is probably one of the best examples of awesome character development I've seen), great "action" sequences whose stakes derive from how attached to the characters you feel and a plot that feels both simple and interesting. I would love to see you watch at least the first couple of episodes of the channel. Great video! Keep it up!

The background music remix in your intro was a nice touch. :) That particular track is actually a pretty substantial plot point through Season 4. I love this series, but it took until about Episode 9 for me to be hooked. As a Japanese teacher, it's also really rare among anime in having realistic language. If you want to learn any Japanese by imitation, this is one of the few series where you wouldn't sound like a cringey sociopath, so that's a plus, haha.

ngl haikyuu is prob the best sports anime I've read/watched. it indulges in its fair share of genre tropes, but it adds enough realism and depth to the characters to keep it from getting anywhere near tiring. I'm not an athlete and knew very little about volleyball going in, but the cast & the themes of the story still really resonated with me. I'd love to see your reaction to the series - I tend to prefer more subdued and thoughtful reactors in general, but especially with haikyuu where character relationships, motivations, and growth paths are so important! also, the title of the show is just an archaic term for volleyball, from the kanji 排球 lol. in Japanese people usually call the sport the shorthand of the english borrowed word, "baree" (バレー). if you haven't already looked this up, the manga is concluded but the anime isn't. there are 4 seasons & we're waiting on season 5.

Man I love this anime. I don’t like sport, never saw a sports anime before this, and I knew nothing about Volleyball before I started Haikyuu. It’s very good. It’s exactly what you’d expect. There are no superpowers. No sudden explosions of violence. It’s about volleyball, teamwork, and character development. That’s it. It’s not over yet, S5 is coming out in the next year or so I believe. It’s pretty lighthearted and chill. But also really hype at times! Also in terms of animation, the episodes look the same as the openings. And for songs, 1 and 3 were both done by Spyair (who made a couple of the best Gintama openings), 4,5,6 were made by Burnout Syndromes (who have done a lot of different openings eg Dr Stone OP1), 2 was made by Sukima Switch (who made the 3rd FMAB opening, Golden Time Lover). And 7 was made by Super Beaver (who I haven’t heard any other anime openings by). Also my favourite OP was 4, Fly High.

It's the first time I'm watching any of your reactions but for what you're saying you would love Haikyuu. Loved your reaction so totally on board if you decide to react to the endings or the whole show. What everyone in the comments is saying it's true. Haikyuu is pretty realistic, of course it's still an anime but no crazy superpowers, and the volleyball is accurate (I knew nothing about it before starting and now, thanks to Haikyuu I often watch and can perfectly follow real games). It's a feel-good, highly motivational anime and not only you end up loving all the characters in the main team (which name means crow in Japanese, that's why there are so many crow images) but also get to know pretty well (and end up loving too) a good amount of rival teams. Even if you don't end up reacting to the episodes I seriously recommend you watch it, you will enjoy it for sure 😊

Just as you said, the anime is pretty realistic, doesn't have anything like super powers or anything like that. The WHOLE cast (and I mean literally the WHOLE, not only the protagonists) have their moments, at some points where you don't even know who cheer for. This is an amazing anime and a must-watch for sure. Hope you give it a chance, you won't regret it :)

This was in my recomendations, its the first video i see of your channel; i really like Haikyuu. About what you said about the type of reactor that you are: Haikyuu often has a bunch of symbolisms that i would like to see if you pick up on them, they are ones that escape me until i see a comment in a reactor pointing it out. And dont worry about your knowledge of volleyball, a lot of us entered with little to none knowledge, and Haikyuu will eventually explain you things here and there; especially the basics. About how real is the volleyball in the anime: I watch other people react to Haikyuu, mainly people with actual knowledge in voleyball, and they often say that the anime is actually pretty accurate in the volleyball basis, obviously not perfect all the time, but its gotten a lot of praise for its accuracy, and some reactors have shared their own anecdotes that are similar or felt the same as some things in Haikyuu. About the character development: there is a lot of that! There is a fan-favorite "mini" arc that starts in season 2 and "finishes" in season 3. About the meaning of the word "Haikyuu": For what i remember its like a less used name for voleyball in japanese. Haikyuu really knows how to make voleyball interesting! The initial goal for the manga was to make more people join volleyball teams because there was a lack of interest in Japan, and it work out even better than what they expected! The anime is not finished yet, but the manga is, so be carefull with spoilers, especially because there is a timeskip, so try to add "pre timeskip" here and there if you really need to look something up, to avoid spoilers. Also you are not really alone, Fly High is a favorite among fans. Im subscribing and looking forward to you reacting to Haikyuu!

And "Fly High", "Hikari Are" and "Phoenix" are all sang by Burnout Syndromes. My favorite OP is definitely Fly High, but the others are amazing too. Btw, the second OP "Ah Yeah!!" is sang by Sukima Switch, the same band who did FMAB OP 3 "Golden Time Lover." And ED 1 and 5 (my personal favorite one) are by NICO Touches the Walls, who also did FMAB OP 2 "Hologram".

This is a very engaging and inspirational series. I never played any sports (aside from gym classes) and never had interest in it. Honestly, I just happened to watch this show by chance. My cousin brought a copy of the first 2 seasons once when I was in junior high school and me and my group of cousins decided to sit and watch just because. After that, we didn't even notice that we've been sitting in front of the television for almost a day. That's how hooked we got on the show. This is actually subjective because everyone's preferences are not the same but Haikyu!! is the best piece of literature and series I have read and watched my entire life. This opinion of mine will never change. If you ever react to this show, I hope you will also feel the same way as I do for this anime. Thank you for reacting to the openings and I'm hoping to see more from you in the future!

Haikyuu is such an amazing anime for everyone. For everyone who ever wanted to be good at anything, or didn't feel like you were good enough, or worked too hard, or didn't work hard enough. It's really an anime that keeps is very real. It reminds me of FMA in which everyone is the main character of their story with their own motivations. The general consensus is that you'll love every single character in this anime and by then end you'll have like 1092819 adopted children. When teams face off against each other you'll always cry because there are winners and there are losers and you'll feel for them both.

I didn't know anything about volleyball but the main force of this anime is to show how fun and interesting volleyball is so no worries if you don't know anything about this sport. There is so much efficiency and the lives lessons through the characters are so inspiring and poetic in a very good way. So if you want to give it a try you shouldn't hesitate ! 😁

Never watched a sports anime before it, didn't know a thing about volleyball, and didn't follow or care about any real sports, so it's definitely one you can start from 0. And 5 is my fav intro. very cinematic, and the lyrics are weirdly intense for a sports anime, which i think is fun.

I got into Haikyuu with hesitation but from different reasons than most. I am a huge volleyball fan, I love the game, I try to attend as many proffesional games as possible, I was at 2014 World Championship finals, 2021 European Championship finals and many many more, including league games. Also played it a lot when I was younger. When I started to watch Haikyuu I was almost sure it wouldn't capture true beauty of the sport, ruin it with some superpowers or power of friendship. Instead I'm here looking for new reactors to witness how another one will fall in love with the show as much as I did. I wish someone would make a compilation of reactors saying "that's just volleyball, how interesting can it be?", "I don't see how they can make few seasons without being repetitive" and then same people crying from emotions, stating that it somehow bacame their top5 anime. Not to mention it is impossible not to smile while watching, it just makes you feel good. If you'll react to Haikyuu I will be here for sure!

I’d love to see you react to haikyuu! I also had little to no knowledge about volleyball going in aside from PE growing up, but this show does a really good job of teaching you what you need to know organically. I also tend to prefer shows with darker themes/conflicts and never thought I’d be so invested in a volleyball anime, but this show is just really something special. It’s passionate, uplifting, and just puts you in a good mood. The main thing that sold me was the character writing though. Everyone here matters and has a story, whether it’s the opposing team, a manager, or even someone on the bench, they all contribute in some way. But it doesn’t get bogged down, and the action, music, themes and imagery just tie it all together so beautifully. The character development isnt just a one and done type of thing either. I could go on and on about literally any of them, and if you like compelling antagonists, haikyuu has got them in spades. I think the fandom is actually pretty evenly distributed across the various teams in picking their favs, which just goes to show how carefully they’ve been crafted. And as the cherry on top, the further you get into this series, the more there is to analyze. The character arcs and themes/life lessons they and their teams represent are what have solidified this series as one of my favorite shows. The anime itself isn’t complete yet, we’re actually just getting into some of my favorite parts of the story (because it keeps getting better and better), but I hope you give it a chance someday!

I'm not a sport anime fan at all, and my best friend did not now shit about volleyball before watching Haikyuu, and it's one of our favorite anime now :) Hope you'll react to it ! In the meantime, I subscribe ;)

The series hasn’t finished. There’s still about 3-4 more manga story arcs left to animate. We’re still waiting for season 5 to be announced. Currently there are 85 episodes + 3 canon OVA’s, 2 of which adapt a story arc from the manga.

"How do they make volleyball interesting" Genius writing tbh. After finishing Haikyuu, Furudate-sensei (the mangaka) moved to the top of my personal list of best manga storytellers, even surpassing Oda (One Piece).

I was not into volleyball before watching Haikyu. I enjoyed it a bit more than other sports that we had to try in gym class, but that was about it. Despite that, I _love_ Haikyu. It's a very grounded show (no super powers, and there is real life footage from actual games for a lot of things that look like they wouldn't be realistic), and incredibly character driven, with characters that I really enjoy. This is the first video I've seen of your channel, but you seem pretty cool, and having another source of Haikyu reactions is always welcome, so it definitely has my vote

I subscribed to your channel just now cause I love how you definitely pay attention to the details of the opening not just bang your head to the song like other opening reactors. I get it that the song is really nice but pay attention to what's happening in the anime too lmao. Your observations and theories are really good! I don't want to say if they're accurate or not though 😌 And as someone who has seen Haikyuu several times, I wasn't really into playing volleyball before watching it. But Haikyuu does a good job in teach their viewers the rules, the position, the critical thinking of players while in the game and before you know it, when you watch live volleyball game you're gonna start thinking critically too 🤣 there's also no superpowers in it which is what I like about it. It's realistic and inspiring 👌 hoping you'll watch Haikyuu 🥲

In addition to being completely friendly with volleyball newbies, and a very realistic animation :). yes it's my second favorite anime (aot is first)

I started watching Haikyuu in 2014/15 out of boredom and just instantly fell in love with the show and the sport. I looked up real life volleyball matches and started watching tutorials and then tried out at a local club/hobby team and been playing ever since. I've also started coaching beginner practices one or two years ago when my coach got his second child and wanted to spend more time at home.

This is genuinely my favorite anime because I can come back to it and watch it time and time again and still feel just as excited as the first time I saw it. Even if I knew which team was going to win, I'd still just as hyped to watch it. Haikyuu is exceptional with building up characters to the point where you have a hard time choosing which team you want to root for. If I had to rank my top five favorite characters, I don't think any of them would even be from the main team (and that's not saying the main team is bad because every character is so interesting in their own ways and I genuinely love those characters as well) I think it's just a testament to how well the manga and show do with showing you more than just your main team. I played volleyball a little bit in junior high, but outside of that I didn't really care much for the sport, but even if you go into this show knowing absolutely nothing about volleyball you'll learn so much along the way and the show doesn't force terms down your neck to make you learn them. The show is also incredibly funny and feel good (and the dub is also my favorite dubbed anime I've seen yet). This video actually just came up in my mentions and I just looked at some of the other shows you're reacting to, and Haikyuu would definitely be a breath of fresh air from all the carnage even though I love all those anime as well. I hope you watch it!

Heyyy there, I’m gonna write down my thoughts through the video here. Just some comments on this and that ^^ - The intro is not too long, it’s perfect - “[…] anime reaction channels are definitely not the type of thing people would typically subscribe to.” - Me: *presses sub button and the bell just to prove otherwise* - You’re analyzing everything and I love that! - And you’re guesses are pretty accurate as well, or at least really understandable and logical - My favorite openings are 4 and 5 I guess. But mostly looking at the music and not the visuals, because I love these songs and they have been in my playlist for so long already :3 (and because I love the visuals in all of them) - “To the Top” is actually a fourth season and the anime is still not finished yet. So probably there will be one or two more seasons. But not even the 5th is announced yet D: - You learn so much about volleyball while watching this show if you didn’t know anything before. I think that’s pretty cool. And I actually started playing volleyball because of it :) - This anime is sooo emotional and exciting, even though they are just playing volleyball (and without superpowers or anything). That’s insane - The animations are awesome in this anime. Like about 3 or 4 times I almost cried just because of the animations and the emotions they caused. - “Not a very expressive guy, is he?” - stating facts right here - It was my fist sports anime and I loved it from the very beginning already - Overall opinion about the anime: It’s just insane, it’s my favorite and I would love to watch you reacting to it. - Overall opinion about you: This is how reactions work, just so! You’re almost talking more than you’re watching the video. That’s how it workes imo. Great job, keep up the great stuff. ^^ Don’t mind my not perfectly accurate English :3 🇺🇸 Anyways, greetings from Germany! 🇩🇪

for me i think haikyuu is a must watch even if you dont even play sports, so many relatable things about life and good tension in the match, and for a volleyball newbies it gots a pretty good detailed explanation too.. many reactor pretty reluctant to it at first just because they dont really like sports genre but ended liking it at the end

About his eyes being closed, it is not symbolic, he literally keeps his eyes closed, bcs if he keeps them open, he usually overthinks it, and would miss the ball, that is coming at great speed. He is no god given talent for volleyball, just infinite energy and will to play it.

I was so reluctant to watch this anime at first because I don't like volleyball and was really doubting how an anime about it cam be exciting. But after 1-2 episodes I was sucked in and I never looked back. If you do choose to watch it, you won't regret it. Compelling character dynamics are a selling point. The emotional journey you will go through will be a rollercoaster. It's not also called "Hype-kyu" for nothing. Tears of hype is definitely a thing when watching this.

You should totally watch it!! Especially if you like characters grow and symbolism, haikyuu is packed with it. The inside joke of the fandom is that there's no main character (or main team) because even the smallest background character or the one episode screentime team will make you care for them
