Haikyuu!! Watch Order
16 entries · · community-maintained
Also known as HAIKYU!!, High Kyuu!!, HAIKYÛ !!
The Haikyuu!! watch order runs through four TV seasons and 60 episodes, plus four films and a handful of OVAs, all slotted into the right sequence. Begin with Episodes 1-25, then catch the Quest Picture Drama and Lev Genzan! OVAs before the two recap films, Owari to Hajimari and Shousha to Haisha. The next block, Episodes 1-10, follows, with the Vs Akaten OVA sitting just ahead of it and the Haru-kou Volley OVA after. Movies three and four, Sainou to Sense and Concept no Tatakai, bridge into the later Episodes 1-13 and Episodes 1-12 runs, with the Riku vs Kuu OVA and the standalone Haikyuu!! OVA placed between them. Watching it this way keeps Karasuno's tournament arcs in order and folds every movie and OVA into the spot where it actually lands, so you get the complete story without guessing where the extras go.

How this order works
AnimeChrono watch orders put every season, movie, OVA, ONA and special for a franchise in chronological story order, the order the events happen. When an OVA or movie takes place partway through a season, the episode range is split so it sits where it belongs. Entries you can skip are marked optional, and each order says where to start. Release order, sorted by air date, is a secondary view once every entry has a date. The orders began as a hand-curated set, and episode counts and air dates come from AniList. Fans maintain the orders from there. Any signed-in user can edit one. Edits from trusted contributors go live right away and the rest are reviewed first. Every change is versioned and can be reverted, and each order shows when it was last updated and last checked.
