Haikyu the Movie: Decisive Battle at the Garbage Dump Runtime Revealed

Haikyu!! has revealed the run time for its new movie, Decisive Battle at the Garbage Dump!

Haikyu!! is readying to hit theaters across Japan with a new movie, and the run time has been revealed for Haikyu the Movie: Decisive Battle at the Garbage Dump ahead of its debut! Haikyu!! wrapped up Season 4 of the anime's run a few years ago with a cliffhanger teasing the Nationals rematch between Nekoma and Karasuno High School. This would be their first official bout with one another, and have the highest stakes yet as they both are attempting to get even further in Nationals. It's such a big occasion that fans will see this match play out in a new movie

Haikyu the Movie: Decisive Battle at the Garbage Dump is the first of the final two movie projects planned to bring the Haikyu!! anime franchise to an end. Hitting theaters in Japan starting on February 16th, the website for the movie has revealed that it will have a run time of one hour and 25 minutes. Which means this will be a heated adaptation of this major match that will help bring the anime franchise to an end. But it also might be skipping some of the finer details for this adaptation.

What Is the Haikyu Movie 2024? 

Haikyu!! The Movie: Decisive Battle at the Garbage Dump is the first of the two new movies planned for the anime's grand finale, and will be releasing across theaters in Japan on February 16th. A release date has yet to be announced for the second and final film of the franchise, however, nor have there been any international release plans confirmed for either film as of the time of this writing. If you wanted to check out the four seasons of the Haikyu!! TV anime series before the new movies release, you can now find it streaming on Crunchyroll. 

They tease Haikyu!! as such, "Based off of the original Weekly Shonen Jump manga series from Haruichi Furudate, Haikyu!! is a slice-of-life sports anime revolving around Shoyo Hinata's love of volleyball. Inspired by a small-statured pro volleyball player, Hinata creates a volleyball team in his last year of middle school. Unfortunately the team is matched up against the 'King of the Court' Tobio Kageyama's team in their first tournament and inevitably lose. After the crushing defeat, Hinata vows to surpass Kageyama. After entering high school, Hinata joins the volleyball team only to find that Tobio has also joined."
