Where Does the Haikyuu!! Anime End in the Manga? (Post-Dumpster Battle)
Confused about where to start the Haikyuu manga after the "Dumpster Battle" movie? Here is the exact chapter and volume you need to read to finish the story.
The Short Answer
If you have watched all 4 seasons of the Haikyuu!! anime AND the recent movie (Haikyuu!! The Dumpster Battle / Nekoma vs. Karasuno), you need to start reading the manga from Chapter 323, which is at the very beginning of Volume 37.
Finish the Match: The final arcs of the manga are legendary. Pick up Haikyuu!! Volume 37 on Amazon.
Why You Should Read the Manga Now
The Haikyuu!! anime committee decided to finish the remainder of the story through movies rather than full TV seasons. While the animation is incredible, adapting over 100 chapters into just two or three movies means a lot of content will be cut or rushed.
If you start reading from Chapter 323, you get to experience:
- The immediate aftermath of the Nekoma match.
- The grueling match against Kamomedai (which is heavily tactical and character-driven).
- The highly anticipated Time Skip / Final Arc, which gives a satisfying conclusion to almost every single character we've met in the series.
Haruichi Furudate’s art style in the final volumes is incredibly dynamic, capturing the speed and weight of the volleyballs in a way that rivals the anime's animation. Don't wait years for the next movie—the perfect ending is already written.
