“Haikyu the Movie!! Battle at the Garbage Dump” will be collaborating with the Volleyball Nations League!Shoyo Hinata and Kozume Shinji appear in the key visual of the tournament

It has been decided that there will be a collaboration between the movie “Haikyu the Movie!! Battle at the Garbage Dump”, “Kaitori Daikichi Volleyball Nations League 2024 Fukuoka Tournament”, and TBS’s “Volleyball Nations League 2024” program.

The Volleyball Nations League is the world's premier volleyball tournament, in which 16 of the world's top teams, both men's and women's, compete for eight weeks in up to 14 countries every year.

In particular, this year's tournament will have matches held in Japan in the second week for men and the third week for women, and will also be the last battle for the Japanese women's national team to qualify for the Paris Olympics, which will open in July. Since then, the first terrestrial live broadcast has been decided on the TBS network, attracting a lot of attention.

This time, characters from Karasuno High School and Nekoma High School, including Shoyo Hinata and Shinji Kozume, from “Haikyu the Movie!! Battle at the Garbage Dump” will support the “Volleyball Nations League” with various projects. It has been decided.

Shoyo Hinata and Kozume Kenji will be featured in the “Key Visual” for the Fukuoka Tournament, which will be held at the West Japan General Exhibition Center/New Building in Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture! The key visual for the Fukuoka tournament, a dream collaboration that can only be seen here, features a newly drawn Hinata and Shinji with the official Volleyball Nations League (VNL) mark on their uniforms, along with the players actually participating in the tournament. Attention!

Furthermore, a video featuring the Japanese national team and characters from “Haikyu!!” was released today on TBS Volleyball's official SNS. In the future, we plan to release collaborative videos between the two on signage in Tokyo and on official SNS, making the Nations League even more exciting.
