Haikyuu Season 4 has officially been confirmed to be in production based upon an announcement at Jump Festa 2019. In August 2019, Weekly Shonen Jump confirmed that the fourth season will be coming out during the winter 2020 anime season.

In September 2019, the “New Series Kickoff Event” for the anime series announced that the fourth season will officially be titled Haikyuu!! To The Top. The event also announced that voice actor Natsuki Hanae will play as Korai Hoshiumi of Kamomedai High School, while Mamoru Miyano will voice Asumu Miya of Inarizaki High School.

What’s more, new Haikyuu OVA episodes called “Land vs Sky” and “The Volleyball Way” will be released on Blu-Ray/DVD on January 22, 2020. The new episodes will first be available for purchase at the Toho Animation booth at Jump Fest 2020, which takes place on December 21st and 22nd in Makuhari Messe in Chiba. (Please see below for more information about the OVA episodes’ story.)

The new anime is highly anticipated by Haikyuu manga fans now that Shoyo Hinata’s story has reached a good stopping point for the anime adaptation by Production I.G.

In June 2019, Weekly Shonen Jump released the first key visual for the Haikyuu Season 4 anime. The fourth season received the lead cover for the new magazine issue to commemorate reaching Chapter 350.

In late July 2019 and mid-August 2019, several new key visuals were released on Twitter. They show the new Haikyuu Season 4 character designs for more of the characters. (See the featured images above and below.)

Manga readers love to watch Haikyuu creator Haruichi Furudate’s art be put into action. Since the fourth Haikyuu movie has been out for a while now, it’s hoped that the fourth season will air in late 2019. But why hasn’t the fourth season been released already? No one except Production I.G. knows for certain, but it is possible director Susumu Mitsunaka might have been the missing critical factor in beginning the anime production.
