Review of Haikyu!! Movie: The Dumpster Battle
I saw someone saying that this is the first time they didn't elevate the source material and i couldn't agree more The only issue with the movie I felt was it was much less intense than the show, mainly because it was short of time, the main reason Haikyuu seasons felt so intense was they stretched a game for around 6-8 episodes and a rare case when it's always good and intensity maintains, now they had around 3-4 episode runtime to do the same, and because of this you see a lot of instances where the set suddenly ended or something went way too fast inone take without any drama and that is very un-Haikyuu like and may even disappoint you if you haven't seen enough sports Anime. The match felt like I'm watching 2.43: Seiin High School Boys Volleyball Team, but with Haikyuu characters
Despite that the movie succesfully connects with you emotionally when it's needed and that's what makes it good, definitely worth a watch, just a bit overrated tho
