Daichi's voice actor in Spanish (Spain) has posted a retweet 8 HOURS AGO about the next Haikyuu movie trailer posted back in March SAYING THE FOLLOWING:
"Looking forward to finishing the Nationals."
1. THE MOVIE IS SOONER THAN WE EXPECTED?!
2. How SWEET of him to post that?? 😭
3. Ain't that a thing Daichi would totally say?? Especially with the final "." JAJAJ
I genuinely cannot describe how much I love haikyuu. I once told my friends that the show gives me more joy than my dogs (don’t tell my dogs I said that). Who are my pride and joys.
It was just so well written, the character development in everyone is amazing. Then just volleyball in general I love how they animate it. It makes me anxious while watching it. All the joke make me fucking GIGGLE. I love every character. And the friendships they produce too such as Tanaka and Noya 😭 I literally love them SO much. Then Noya and Asahi too. Like I can go on for hours. And the team part that kageyama learns it’s BEAUTIFUL. Such as you cannot play volleyball alone and you HAVE people. And as a person who plays and loves volleyball they portray that love for it VERY well. Idk I just think haikyuu is the best 🥰😋
I needed some happy chemicals in my brain so I watched the only English dub Haikyuu thing I could find (I am still anxiously searching for all four seasons because I know they exist, they just aren't on Netflix anymore), which was The Dumpster Battle movie. You could say I'm a fan.
I accidentally went on a tangent so I'll put a cut in here lmao
I have fairly limited knowledge of the characters because I've only really seen clips and scrolled through fanart and fics, but I am very attached to Kenma. That's my little guy. I adore him. He's such a scheming little punk <3 But anyway, he was a big part of why I enjoyed the movie. I loved his relationship with Kuroo (and I love Kuroo in general. New husband alert fr fr) and how motivated he is by Hinata. I feel like I got to see him grow just within the span of the movie (I was dancing around my room when he said he was having fun. So precious). He's also just so smart and getting to see his POV was cool as hell (I do see what people meant about the literal POV scene making them feel vaguely nauseous, though). I had seen fanart of the "thank you for teaching me to play volleyball scene" but seening the scene itself made me all emotional. Kuroo is literally me in this scene.
I have even more limited knowledge of Nekoma specifically and I'm really only familiar with Kenma (obviously), Kuroo, and a little bit of Lev and Yaku. I could sit here and type up an essay about Kenma in this movie but I won't because my stomach hurts.
So let me yap about Karasuno instead. Even as someone who hasn't watched the show in full, I am obsessed with them. Tsukki and Yamaguchi? I love them. Their small little moment in this movie made me so happy (you might find me on my other account gushing about them under fanart). Yes, I do like Tsukkiyama. And let the record show that I'm also a fan of Kuroken (what do you mean you fell for his flattery, Kenma??!!). Are you sensing a pattern? Can you tell I like childhood friends (or just friends) to lovers? Good! Tsukki didn't get a lot of moments in this movie but I really enjoyed the few he had. That's my favorite tall blonde, no I don't take criticism. I wish Yamaguchi got more time, but when you're trying to fit everything into a single hour and a half movie, some characters are bound to be pushed aside. I don't think Kiyoko even spoke in this movie and neither did any of those three second years that I can never remember the names of. Daichi, I loved you despite how few moments you had (affectionate bro hug with Kuroo at the end surprised and delighted me). I will enjoy you even more when I actually get the chance to sit and binge this show. SUGA!!!! SUGA IS MAMA! I FUCKING LOVE SUGA. He also didn't get a lot of time in the movie but he used his time well. I love this man. The mother of all time. Nishinoya and Asahi are another favorite duo of mine. I know bits of their relationship and history and it makes me weep. Someone hold my little Asanoya heart. Special Yachi shoutout because she's braver than I am. That ball went right past her face and I swear she didn't even flinch. Absolute queen shit right there. Bonus shoutout to Bokuto and Akaashi, who I like very much. Bokuto is a complete dumbass and I love him for it.
AND OF COURSE, you can't talk about Haikyuu or this movie without bringing up Hinata and Kageyama. LOOK AT THAT LITTLE BABY CROW FLY. LOOK HOW MUCH TRUST THERE IS. I LOVE THESE STUPID KIDS! I feel like a proud mama, they did so well. Also Hinata is also stronger than me because Kenma was putting him through the wringer and I'd have cried in the middle of the court. But Karasuno adapted and they flew! My amazing crows!!! Kageyama can't take a compliment and that's adorable. Bend down here you giant, I'm going to pinch your cheeks and coo at you.
But I don't think I'm saying anything that hasn't been said before (though I do have the weird perspective of this being the only content for it I've watched in full because my stupid ass doesn't enjoy subs as much-though I'll watch them if there's no other option, i.e. a lot of the movies won't have dubs at all or they just won't be offered, so I tend to watch those subbed) and I've been yapping for a while. So long that my laptop fucking died on me!
But anyway, if anyone wants to A. inform me of a good place to watch the dubbed show, or B. just chat Haikyuu with me, feel free to say something in the comments! And once again, I'm so sorry for whatever the hell this is.
Judge me all you want but Haikyuu dub is actually what highschool boys sound like and I’ve never seen a more accurate representation and I fully believe it’s better than the sub
the performances on Haikyuu dub were done so genuinely well and was so entertaining yet it’s basically lost media. why on EARTH would you make a whole entire english translation of all four seasons only to make it completely inaccessible and not to sound like those angry anime redditors who snap their fingers from typing complaints over nothing BUT THAT DUB WAS SO GOODDD
or maybe i just have a big attachment to it since it’s the first ever anime i got super into back in 8th grade that’s probably it
sorry i’m definitely a dub over sub typa lad because im usually multitasking while watching things and i could never read subtitles in time id have to keep pausing or rewinding 😭 the dub vs sub debate is dumb anyways unless theres a translation in one language that added more to the story, otherwise its complete preference dude
Can someone upload the haikyuu dub on YouTube or tumblr so I can listen to it while I work I literally can’t find it anywhere except for some very expensive DVDs I JUST WANT TO LISTEN TO THE DUB WHILE I WORKkkkk
