I watched the anime and absolutely adored it, so naturally I had to pick up the manga. I was surprised to see how closely the anime had followed the original material and breezed through this pretty quickly with the same sense of endearment. The movement on the pages is handled really well so it doesn't lose anything as a sports manga. I will say though, I personally enjoyed the anime more because the animations are more fun on screen. I probably won't finish the series for this reason, but Haikyu is absolutely worth reading. You can't help but root for the characters and their motivations.

It was nice and heartwarming and I definitely like the mc and I can really feel the passion just radiating from the pages but other than that it was pretty standard to me? Like honestly I kinda prefer blue lock but it's still nice!

I was very, very pleasantly surprised by this book. It’s not often I finish a manga and want to seek out volume 2, but I’m invested in these characters. Sure, there are some tropes, but fan service is non-existent and the focus is on developing the team dynamics rather than action scenes. I really enjoyed it.

while i found the story incredibly intriguing and quite interesting, the art was unfortunately lacking. the character design unfortunately had same face syndrom and it kind off ruined the story for me 

but it is great if you love the anime or volleyball in itself
