Haikyu!!

Haikyu!! is in a merchandise and event build toward two 2027 screen works, with a mobile training sim open for pre-registration and a Thank You Mart goods line of 26 items at 429 yen on web pre-order as of November 4, 2026.

Synthesized from 21 Yomimono stories · updated 1h ago

Since June 2026 the franchise has run on two tracks: a dense merchandise and event calendar, and a slow build toward two 2027 screen releases. The merchandise dropped almost continuously. Pop-up shops in summer water-gun and jinbei themes were followed by loungewear, mochocho chibi goods across rival schools, a Coleman outdoor collaboration, a MAZZEL-backed On the Court event, a Rilakkuma tie-in, a Production I.G cultural festival shop, and an and GALLERY cafe running November 3 to December 6. The latest addition is a Thank You Mart line of 26 everyday items at 429 yen, with web pre-orders opened on November 4.

The screen side is anchored by two 2027 works. On Haikyu!! Day, August 19, 2026, a concept visual for Haikyu!! The Movie: VS The Little Giant put Hinata Shoyo against Hoshiumi Korai at Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium, and an action PV for the special anime Haikyu!! Where the Monsters Go featured Bokuto Kotaro and Kiryu Wakatoshi. The day also brought a handwritten illustration from creator Haruichi Furudate and a free three-day ABEMA marathon of all 85 TV anime episodes, five OAD/OVA episodes, and the puppet anime. ABEMA returned to the series in September with free sports marathons.

On the game side, TOHO Games opened pre-registration for Haikyu!! ALL Challengers on the App Store and Google Play on October 20, 2026. The training simulation from TOHO Games and G2Studios carries newly drawn 2D animation and new voice recordings, more than 34 trainable players, and a free-to-play model with paid content. The release date is undecided. New promotional video and a main visual followed the same day.
