The View From The Summit - How Haikyuu Makes You Care

  • Haikyuu is a show that is easily skipped. It's a sports anime about volleyball - a niche genre about a sport that pales in popularity compared to other ballgames. But Haikyuu trascends those limits, offering a show with such wide appeal that anyone can find something to love in it. It's one of the best anime I've ever seen - and as someone with little interest in sports or sports anime, I almost never saw it - so today let me take fifteen minutes of your time. That's all I need to convince you that Haikyuu might just be one of your favourites too.

    Daichi is like 'Jack of all trades but ace of none', he is second to Noya when it comes to receives, he contributes to spiking when his team needs it. Plus he is a captain who can lead the troops and know how to keep calm during tense situations.

      John Truby said something that stuck with me so much when I think about the shows I like:
      There should always be some flaw that keeps the heroes from accomplishing something. The goal of writing is pitting them against that thing so they must overcome it in order to grow and develop as characters. That is why it's important for them to play against such unique and well developed characters. We like that they are so well fleshed out, that they have their own goals, that we not only feel victory but the devastating loss of knowing that we weren't enough in some way. That's how most of these hard working players end their careers: on a loss in a low level tournament. That humanizes them. Like Oikawa not wanting Kageyama to beat him because he was afraid he was much better and that he'd be replaced. Or Goshiki feeling as though he failed Ushijima, whom he idolizes.
      No victory ever feels clean because on the other side of the net, someone's dreams have used been as a stepping stone.

    Sports shounen seems to be a genre that consistently produces surprisingly captivating, innovative and at times, downright impressive stories.
    I skipped Haikyuu for ages as I thought the hype was unjustified for what initially appeared to be a 'typical' sports shounen/ shippers dream. But holy hell, ended up binging it HARD and was shocked by how much depth even the minor characters had.

They all made fun of me and said I'm prob just watching it for the cute boys and shipping them which was really annoying so I just gave up on them... flash forward to 2016 when S3 was at its peak and then suddenly all of them loves Haikyuu and I got the last laugh XD

      Haikyuu! is the best sports anime ever because of the hype, the emotions, and the characters. Kuroko no Basket is great too, but it is not the same as Haikyuu! because it is about characters who are there to try to be the best. Haikyu! is a show where they try THEIR best and want to stay on the court the longest. It is not just about winning, but it is about having fun and giving it your all.

    Omg that episode with the girl volleyball team gave me chills!! The parallel from Daichi’s middle school friend, to the Karasuno women volleyball (that I was also lowkey rooting for). It just puts even more weight when they beat their opposing team, I was so awed with how the episode was laid-out. Also, since we’ve seen all of our players lose and deal with that lost (Karasuno during the previous year, Hinata & Kageyama) especially with Hinata, I feel like it adds more depth to the team, and make them way more likable when they took their first opponents seriously despite having a huge gap in the scores. Damn it made my eyes water a bit

    I got recommended this anime by a friend with the following statement "It's like Slam Dunk, but about volleyball and not like Slam Dunk". I laughed and laughed until I watched it and I understood what he meant, I was completely hooked. It's also reminds me of my favourite anime of all time, Hajime no Ippo, which is honest and as realistic as an anime can really be if it's about sports.
    This, like HnI, made me care about the rivals, even to the point that some made legitimately root for the antagonist of the fight (in this case match), made me care about the secondary characters and specially the protagonist and his ultimate goal.
    This video explains, with better words, exactly why I think Haikyuu, and by consequence Hajime no Ippo and Slam Dunk, should be on anyone's radar.

    I've been severely depressed and full of anxiety for a while now. Haikyuu gave me happiness when I thought I would never feel it again. Even then, the threat of feeling joy only for it to end severely spiked my anxiety. What with an uncertain future because of the virus, and regrets that I could've done more in highschool before it ended so early... The first two minutes and thirty seconds of this video help lift me from that mindset. I don't know why, but they do. I didn't focus on just one thing through school. I focused on many and did exceptional through them all. So I don't need to hold such regret and distort my memories because of fear. Thank you for this video honestly, it helps.

    I started watching Haikyuu!! while the last quarter of its first season was still airing. I didn't know anything about volleyball at the time, but I did watch some sports anime. I saw a few clips of Hinata, and it was his resolve that pulled me in. I saw a kid who was fighting for a dream with everything he had, absolutely everything. and like you said: it made me care. I was rooting for him before I knew anything about him.
    this video is a fantastic love letter to a series that deserves it so much. you're very right about the reason why they fight being more important than actual winning. it's something that too many action-oriented stories (anime or otherwise) seem to miss. I also never expected to care so much for the rivals and opponents, yet found myself tearing up when some of them lost. the Seijoh 3rd years' final match is the most memorable example for me.
    thank you for this awesome video. the editing, music, script - all of it is fantastic. I'm going to send this to anyone I recommend Haikyuu!! to in the future; it really shows everything I love about the series.

The character narratives in Haikyuu are some of the best that I have ever since in any television show that I have ever watched. Over the course of 3 and half seasons, I have come to care as much about the members of Nekoma, Aoba Johsai, and Fukurodani as much as Karasuno, that's how good the characterization is in this series. Your video expertly explains just about every aspect of Haikyuu that makes it so special to me, bravo!

    But your video piqued my interest, at a time when I was lacking focus and direction you spoke about a show that characters make up for what I needed in spades.
    And I can't thank you enough for it.
    Over the past week, I've seen all 3 seasons of Haikyuu!! and I've caught up to the 4th. It's the best! I love these characters and their stories and I can't wait to see what happens next!
    So thank you for making this video, you showed me what is now one of my all time favourites, a Rocky movie as an ensemble to inspire and motivate me and also make laugh.
    Thank you!

    If you think haikyuu is great, then my god does it means so much more if you play volleyball as well. From attending the beginners classes 8 years ago to playing 4 times a week now with my volleyball club and friends, I’m so glad to have haikyuu complement my volleyball experience along the way. Season 1 Hinata was very relatable, I wanted to play volleyball but there was no one to play it with but thanks to Haikyuu, the interest in volleyball has spiked and the community has grown immensely. Unlike some, I’ll never be dismissive of those who only picked it up after watching the anime. I’m just grateful that the story about high school volleyball boys was compelling enough to encourage more people to play the game.

    Thanks for covering this! You captured the heart of the writing and character development so well! I just got into it last year because I needed something to fill the void between BNHA seasons, but it's been a fantastic series in its own right. I'm so glad I got into it just before the 4th season is due to come out. The hiatus between 3 and 4 would have been painful.

    Dang, I find it amazing that exactly at the day I watch some of your older videos after a while again you had to upload a new one ... I bet you can't imagine how suprised and happy I was when I saw it hahah.
    I'm happy to see you did a video about one of my most favourite Animes, great work by the way! :)
    I never was much into sports before Haikyuu, I never could understand or relate why people were amazed by (different kinds of) sports until I watched this great piece. I mean, I'm still not much into sports, but after watching this I could at least understand it a bit and it helped me to grow a little fascination for volleyball. Anyway, I just love this Anime, its characters, setting, and animation. I was so damn amazed the first time I watched it, feeling this incredible excitement I don't find in many other shows. Sometimes I wish I could delete my memory about a certain movie or series just so I could relive these moments, feeling this incredible fascination and amazement. It'll never be the same after the first time of watching it, but I guess I'll still love it for a long time for the emotions it invoked in me back then.
    Soo, thanks once again for your work! Maybe it's too abstract to explain my emotions, at least I can't really put them well into words, or maybe they're too abstract to really understand them, but your videos are so incredibly touching and interesting to watch. Hope you realize how your work is influencing (at least some of) your viewers. It really is a pleasure to watch your videos from time to time. I'll definitely share your video(s) to some of my friends, hope they'll be amazed by this show, and maybe find a new great RUclipsr to watch for the future aswell ;)

    The thing that I really love about channels like yours, is how you perceive/look at things in certain anime.
    You help to convey those feelings and put thoughts into words in ways that I tend to find difficult to do so myself.
    Nothing is perfect, taste is subjective and everyone has their own perception of things...so of course some people would just find something like Haikyu and other series to be nothing special, mediocre, overrated or etc.
    Because of this, I tend to watch videos or some people/channels and the way they seem to see things, even “nitpicking” if you will, often just feels so different from what I appreciate from the series in question. Thus, I find myself disagreeing about many things with them.
    However with certain channels/people...it just clicks
    I feel more connected to these people, like I am more so on the same page as them, I see things similarly as them
    And that’s why I appreciate them and value their thoughts and recommendations on things more than others.
    Of course I will still disagree or think differently about some things, but as a whole I feel like I am more liked minded with these people
    So I just wanted to say thank you, because your content is another one of those few channels that I feel more connected with

  • @ArgKnoxville86
    @ArgKnoxville86 3 года назад

    The line in 14:09 is so real, in fact if you pay attention the 1st season cuts the matches between episodes. You'd think they would organize the matches to fit within each episode but not at all. That is because as it states here, the result barely matters, what matters is the characters and their stories.

    I can wholeheartedly recommend, if you havent already did a video on this - Kaze ga Tsuyoku Futeiru - man.. this really hit so many spots that also haikyuu hit, just way more compressed. It still gave so much inside into every character in such a short amount of time. It always amazes me, how much I cared for them in the end. Besides, I love running myself in private, so this might have clicked for me even more. Shed a tear to your awesome snippets. Haikyuu is love. lol.

  • @cozydayzandnightz
    @cozydayzandnightz 2 года назад

    I originally discovered Haikyuu long past its end for its cool Shonen animation. How I never found it earlier, I will never know. While the charm of the show led me to continue the series, I think a big part that kept me going was the stories seen and lessons learned from opposing teams. I found myself in deep reflection, learning more about myself and of others. Those, in my opinion, are the best anime; the ones which straddle the line between creating engagement and introspection.
    Great video, as always, I'm surprised I missed this one.

    I was in track all four years of High School, and in my Junior year we had the strongest team I'd ever been a part of after years of squandering in the middle ranks of our division. We worked so hard, and at the end of the season, at the last meet of the season that would determine the year's champion, we came in third. We were strong, and two other schools were so much stronger.
    The end of the Inter High Tournament in season 1 really hit me hard, and I had to walk away from the show for a while because I was so damn emotional.
    I love this series.
