Since its release, the highly-anticipated Haikyu movie has only been available in Japan. Therefore, is there a global release date set for the new Haikyu movie?
Haruichi Furudate’s Haikyu!! series, a beloved sports anime and manga, released its long-awaited film, titled Haikyu!! Movie: The Battle of the Garbage Dump, on February 16, 2024. Unfortunately, the movie was initially only accessible to Japanese viewers. As the series has gained immense popularity worldwide, it comes as no surprise that fans have eagerly awaited the first of the two final movies.
The anime movie is highly acclaimed for featuring the legendary Battle of the Garbage Dump between Nekoma and Karasuno, which has been eagerly anticipated by fans for a long time. The movie was a massive success in 2024, grossing over 61 million USD in just two months after its exclusive release in Japan. This further solidifies its popularity among fans.
Despite its success in Japanese theatres, with first-day box office earnings ranking behind only Jujutsu Kaisen 0, One Piece Film: Red, and Demon Slayer: Mugen Train, the release date for the Haikyu movie on a global scale is still uncertain.
