Haikyu is coming back for the first of two big movies bringing the anime franchise to an end, and Haikyu the Movie: Decisive Battle at the Garbage Dump has revealed its theme song for the new movie! After Haikyu ended the fourth season of the TV anime some time ago, it was quite a while before the anime announced that it was going to continue. But rather than a fifth season of the anime itself, it was instead announced that the anime would be coming back for a new set of two movies bringing the anime’s run to an end overall.ย
