Rose Faerie's Review Violence: Just some fighting, along the lines of roughhousing. No one intends bodily harm. Sex and Nudity: None. Theological Themes: None. Problematic Themes: Their coach is seen smoking cigarettes a few times. There is some swearing, though it's mainly in the subbed version. The d-word, h-word, and s-word are used. The s-word is the most infrequently used. Overall: Haikyuu!! is a fun watch. I was skeptical at first, since I hate watching sports (with the exception of the Olympics), but I had heard good things about it. Now I know more about volleyball than I ever did before, and it was actually pretty interesting. It's very fresh, rather realistic, and there was enough drama and comedy to pad things out. I never expected to be so entertaining to watch volleyball. The characters themselves are diverse and endearing. Hinata and Kageyama have great chemistry and balance each other out. Not everyone gets along, which adds to the realism, though the team is close knit for the most part. It's fun to watch them evolve and grow as people and players. The art is really cool, and it employs a unique use of shading, which I haven't seen in any other shows yet. The songs all have an inspiring atmosphere and add to the environment. I recommend this one to preteens and up, due to the swearing. |
