HYPER-PROJECTION ENGEKI: HAIKYU!! China Tour Begins! Reports and Comments from the Dress Rehearsal Unveiled

HYPER-PROJECTION ENGEKI: HAIKYU!! Overview

STORY
Shoyo Hinata, a boy fascinated by volleyball and inspired by the "Little Giant," finally manages to play in his first and last official junior high school match—only to be soundly defeated by genius player Tobio Kageyama, known as the "King of the Court." Swearing revenge, Hinata joins the Karasuno High School volleyball club, but upon entering finds none other than his bitter rival Kageyama there. As Hinata, Kageyama, and the Karasuno volleyball club grow and change through practice, each member’s passion for volleyball is clear. Volleyball is a sport where you cannot let the ball fall, nor can you hold on to it—you must "connect" with your teammates through three volleys to attack. What vistas await at the end of this teamwork?
