Haikyuu!!’s remarkable journey is gradually approaching its conclusion, with the release of the first part of the concluding anime movies, titled “Haikyuu: Decisive Battle at the Garage Dump” or simply “Battle of the Garage Dump,” captivating audiences in Japanese theaters. The movie, boasting a 90-minute runtime, has made a resounding impact in Japan, raking in impressive box office returns and garnering widespread acclaim. However, for international fans eagerly awaiting the English dub’s global release, the wait continues.
“Haikyuu: Decisive Battle at the Garage Dump” received a full-fledged theatrical rollout in Japan, where it continues to grace screens following its release on Feb. 16. As the franchise’s first feature-length movie, excluding previously released compilation films, it is receiving prime treatment in its native country. Unfortunately, for fans outside Japan, this means a longer wait to witness Karasuno’s latest battles. Concrete news regarding the movie’s international release date remains elusive, suggesting that fans in other regions may have to exercise patience for a few weeks at least. Nonetheless, given Haikyuu’s immense popularity, an international release is likely to follow sooner rather than later.
Where can you stream Haikyuu: Decisive Battle at the Garage Dump?
While nothing has been officially confirmed, it’s a safe bet that “Haikyuu: Decisive Battle at the Garage Dump” will eventually be available for streaming on Crunchyroll. The renowned anime streaming platform already hosts the original anime series, along with other dubs and compilation movies, making it a logical choice for the movie’s streaming debut. Previous Haikyuu compilation movies took only a few months to arrive on Crunchyroll after their theatrical release, suggesting a similar timeframe for “Decisive Battle at the Garage Dump.” Fans can likely anticipate its arrival on Crunchyroll by the summer.
What is the Haikyuu movie about?
