This film is about a volleyball game that runs through the entire runtime of the film. As opposed to other recent anime films, this one though does not have much of a story and the drama doesn’t swell into fevered action or excitement. This film, is part of the 10th anniversary celebration of the Weekly Shonen Jump manga series from Haruichi Furudate - which it is based on.
This series is a popular sports about a high school volleyball team. It’s been said that 33 chapters of have been adapted into this movie. So, much of the intimate detailing is lost in the macro battle that ensues on film.
“The Dumpster Battle” doesn’t have backstory. So if you are not clued in on the anime series, this would seem like just another volleyball game. Haikyuu makes do with emotional moments, and adrenaline generating action sequences.
The movie revolves around the highly-anticipated Battle at the Garbage Dump, a match between rivals Karasuno and Nekoma High School. Shoyo Hinata, the newest member of the volleyball team at Karasuno High School, is excited to be on the team that his athletic idol, “Little Giant,” was once part of. But the excitement doesn’t last long - once he learns that one of his teammates will be Tobio Kageyama, his bitter rival from middle school.
Tobio’s team had in-fact beaten Shoyo’s, last year. Now, since they are on the same team they are forced to collaborate with each other, to make their team a winner. The animation continues to be exacting.
