Shoyo Hinata joins Karasuno High's volleyball club to be like his idol, a former Karasuno player known as the "Little Giant." But, Hinata soon finds that he must team up with his middle school nemesis, Tobio Kageyama. Their clashing styles turn into a surprising weapon, but can they beat their rival Nekoma High in the highly anticipated "Dumpster Battle," the long awaited ultimate showdown between two opposing underdog teams?

Because even if crows and cats battling in a dumpster doesn’t appeal to you, there’s still the promise of watching good athletes play a good game — and that’s worth a seat in the bleachers.

For the uninitiated, you might as well be a cat or a crow watching this: much of it will leave you cold or simply go over your head.

Rated: 2/5

It's very much your standard issue "anime sports story," but it delivers on it. If you enjoy volleyball, you will have a lot of fun with it.

You have to admire director and co-writer Susumu Mitsunaka’s ability to stretch a single game to feature-length without it ever becoming dull and his attempts to make things as immersive as possible

Rated: 3.5/5

Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle will make for an entertaining viewing experience for long-time followers of the anime... But if the names Hinata Shoyo and Kageyama Tobio mean nothing to you, you probably can give this a miss.

Rated: 3/5

... One of the best animes in history and, without a doubt, the best sports story in a series or on film. [Full review in Spanish]

I didn’t care for the rival antagonist character on the opposing team. He strategizes well, but he starts off as someone who doesn’t really get interested in volleyball until he gets involved with the protagonist. It has a little bit of weak writing there. However it’s not too big of an issue. The movie is good. & the antagonist is a friend to the protagonist. With that being said, all works out. They also still friends in the end. Making for a good realistic friendship and friendly rivalry that I wish was more present in sports nowadays.

The only thing I disliked was that it had to end. This was well done.
