Haikyuu!! Movie 1: Owari to Hajimari

It's simply a recap movie. It didn't really provide new content or anything, but if its been a while since you watched the first season (and never continued to the second) it's pretty helpful. The artstyle, sound, and characters are same as before. Beautifully well done. The story is a little smooshed together (as all recaps are) which is perfectly fine. If you have just finished watching the first season of Haikyuu there is absolutely no need to watch this movie at all. If you're like I am, and watched it a few years ago and completely forget basically everything that happened I would recommend watching the first and second recap movie before moving on to the next season. You'll basically get all the information you need from the anime you've already finished in a much quicker time span. Which is the good thing about this recap! If you don't have all the time in the world to completely rewatch the entire season (which would be 25 episodes amounting to 600 minutes) you could watch both movies which would amount to 177 minutes instead. It's pretty convenient. Overall I'd give it a 6/10, it's fine. It's a good recap but it's not original content.

This essentially recaps the first half of the first season of Haikyuu!!. Except, in the ending, there is a scene of when Kenma and Kuroo were younger and when they originally made the decision to be a team and the kind of methods they would use. Other than that, it is essentially the same. The art style is lovable and memorable, but at the same time - if you pause it at almost any point, it looks VERY strange, i.e. facial expressions, weird arm movements, etc. This movie, as you would expect, uses the same sound effects and music as the series - but those sound effects are very strong. They always fit the overall feel of the situation perfectly and the music never fails to bring hype.

(Quick Review) This is a recap of some the anime first season. It has how Hinata joins Karasuno and how he meets again and teams up with his rival Kageyama, then we see how the team gets back Nishinoya and Ashai back into the team after there fight and finally, we see how Karasuno finally gets there match against there rival team Nekoma High. This recap wasn't bad, art, the sound stayed the same from the anime. Nekoma High team is my favourite team amongst the rest and I like some the character that is in the team I enjoyed this recap, as it refreshed me of the first half of the season of Haikyuu
