On Monday, November 6, 2023, the official Jump Festa 2024 website made an announcement regarding the Haikyuu Final movie, stating that new information will be unveiled during the upcoming December event. Although the specific details of this information remain undisclosed, it is worth noting that the convention event traditionally serves as a significant platform for releasing trailers, key visuals, premiere dates, and more.
The Haikyuu Final movie is set to be the first installment in a two-part film series, intended to bring a conclusion to the immensely popular sports anime series, which has previously seen the release of four seasons. Production I.G has been responsible for animating the series up to this point, and as of the time of writing this article, they continue to bear production responsibilities for the film.
While many fans eagerly await the series’ culmination, there is some concern among others that the Haikyuu Final movies may rush the adaptation of the remaining manga content within the anime. The task at hand is undoubtedly substantial for Production I.G and the rest of the adaptation team, yet it is hoped that the revelations set for the Jump Festa 2024 event will help alleviate the doubts of skeptical fans.
Haikyuu Final Movie Likely to Release Trailer In Jump Festa 2024
As mentioned earlier, Jump Festa 2024 has gained a reputation as a prime platform for unveiling trailers and release dates for both anime series and films. This has generated significant excitement among fans awaiting news about the Haikyuu Final movie. While concrete details about what will be disclosed at the upcoming event are currently unavailable, it’s anticipated that unofficial news and rumors will start circulating in the weeks and months leading up to the event.
The forthcoming two-part anime film, likely to be the focal point of Jump Festa 2024’s announcements, bears the subtitle “The Battle at the Garbage Dump.” This title alludes to the forthcoming volleyball match between Karasuno High School and Nekoma High School, a rivalry that has been referred to as such due to their past showdowns.
In late September 2023, a teaser trailer for the upcoming film was released, accompanied by a key visual featuring the series’ protagonist, Shoyo Hinata, and Nekoma’s Kenma Kozume. The approximately 90-second trailer predominantly showcased scenes from Nekoma and Karasuno’s previous encounters, with a brief glimpse of the upcoming film’s match.
The Jump Festa 2024 event is scheduled to commence on Saturday, December 16, 2023, and will run for just two days until Sunday, December 17. Despite its brevity, the convention, organized by Shueisha, is renowned for delivering key information on their most popular anime and manga series. In addition to updates on the Haikyuu Final movie, fans can anticipate significant announcements regarding other well-loved Shueisha properties such as One Piece, Spy x Family, My Hero Academia, and more.
