HAIKYUU! SEASON 1 ANIME REVIEW


 

HAIKYUU! SEASON 1 ANIME REVIEW
-HARUICHI FURUDATE
(JULY 07 2019)


Overall: 10

Plot: 10

Haikyuu! is a sports genre anime, mainly tackling about Volleyball. In this kind of story, there's only one direction it will go through. There are practice matches, competitions, win lose set up. They have only one goal, to win. It will all be the same. The skill to make it unique, interesting, exciting to watch or read is what makes the difference. The story of each and every characters. Their struggle, their persistence, it's what make this kind of genre great. Haikyuu! is one of those sport type anime who can make the viewer scream with excitement. This series will not only make you hope of victory for them, but can also make you want more. Their battle from the bottom of the rally until the top is nerve racking, satisfying, and real great. 

Character: 10

Every characters have a story to tell. Each of them have fears that they need to overcome. Each of them have that greatness that they don't know until someone pushes them. I love how every characters have that spotlight to tell their story, even if they are not one of the main characters. It was good that it explained why they are doing such thing because of that experience. Apart from that, the efforts exhausted by the main character to reach his dream, even if it is nearly impossible is really something. Though it seems like everything is against that goal, he is making his best effort to compete with that flaw. And that focus will lead to something magnificent, that's for sure.

Sound and Animation: 10

I really love how the characters were made. I like the expression of their faces when they are mad, when they are angry or they are focus to fight. Apart from that, the differences on their image, from their faces to the structures of their body is something unique for me. It's really hard to create characters difference from each other. The voices of the characters has been picked in a way that it really adds up to the attitude of what they are portraying. It was an incredible watch. 

Enjoyment: 10

Oikawa, can you be mine? He is so handsome and his character is too unique. There's never a dull moment watching this series. The spices was divided perfectly. The fun scenes, the serious ones, it all matches. What I like the most is how they focused on their goal, how much feelings and efforts they've put just to grab it and make it their own. 

Ending: 10

Losing is just the beginning. Losing is not everything. It's just a lesson we need to learn. Losing on the last match of the series is inevitable. It is needed for the characters to grow. It is needed for them to know what they need to improve. I guess, losing is a blessing in disguise is really true. This ending reminded me of Kuroko no Basket. They did have the same ending, same feeling of pain, same feeling of wanting to improve more. In this kind of scenario, in this part of story, I think this is the best ending.

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIE 4 LAST GAME SUMMARY

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIE 4 LAST GAME SUMMARY -TADATOSHI FUJIMAKI When you thought that the story ends after the Winter Cup Tournament, this movie turns out to be the final phase of the story. Well, basketball does not end in one's country. After winning the game, there is no doubt that another player, much more talented, much more better, will go your way. During the movie, American Basketball Team, famous in the field of Basketball visited Japan. A point where all of the members of the Generations of Miracles, along with Kuroko and Kagami, will have to fight them comes. It is a very interesting and exciting movie since it will be the first time showing how they play as a real team. How they realize that there are players who can match up on their level, who can take them head on, that will trigger them to do more than what they are doing. And to depend on their teammates because basketball is a five player game and not one. Well, Kuroko did made them realize that fact. What I find k...

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIES 1 2 3 SUMMARY

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIES 1 2 3 SUMMARY -TADATOSHI FUJIMAKI 1. Movie 1 Winter Cup Soushuuhen - Kage to Hikari 2. Movie 2 Winter Cup Soushuuhen - Namida no Saki e 3. Movie 3 Winter Cup Soushuuhen - Tobira no Mukou Movie one, two, and three is a summarize version of Season one, two, and three. Though unlike the Season one series where it tackles first the plays Seirin made in order to participate in the Winter Cup and Season 2 moving on to the tournament itself, the Movies focuses on the Winter Cup alone and show only a bit of introduction from the Season one series. The movies consist of the highlights and the outplays Team Seirin did in order to defeat every team with a Generation of Miracles member. It is a waste not to watch them but I decided not to. Not because it will be a waste of time but I know that watching it will make my memory jumble. Since I've watched each episodes of all three seasons, I already know how the story goes. But apart from that fact, every bit of extras, no...
