Brief Description:
Following their participation at the Inter-High, the Karasuno High School volleyball team attempts to refocus their efforts, aiming to conquer the Spring tournament instead.

When they receive an invitation from long-standing rival Nekoma High, Karasuno agrees to take part in a large training camp alongside many notable volleyball teams in Tokyo and even some national level players. By playing with some of the toughest teams in Japan, they hope not only to sharpen their skills, but also come up with new attacks that would strengthen them. Moreover, Hinata and Kageyama attempt to devise a more powerful weapon, one that could possibly break the sturdiest of blocks.

Facing what may be their last chance at victory before the senior players graduate, the members of Karasuno's volleyball team must learn to settle their differences and train harder than ever if they hope to overcome formidable opponents old and new—including their archrival Aoba Jousai and its world-class setter Tooru Oikawa.

Violence: The same as the first season. Mild slapstick and roughhousing-esque fights.

Sex and Nudity: I think there was a single comment about Tanaka's sister's chest. You can only hear the beginning of it, since other characters begin to talk over it.

Theological Themes: None.

Problematic Themes: Same as the first season. Some swearing while under stress. The d-word, h-word, and s-word are used. The s-word is only used in a joke scene, where one of the characters is using the word literally and a teammate berates him for his bad language. (Of course that leads to him saying the word a few more times to annoy the other character.)

Overall: I liked it better than the first season. Yachi was a welcome addition to the team, and, unlike Kiyoko, she actually has a defined personality. Tsukishima and Yamaguchi get lots of screen time and character development. Even one of the resident background characters, Ennoshita, gets an episode. It's very awesome.

Of course Hinata and Kageyama get a lot of focus and they grow a lot as players and people.

Every match the characters play is full of emotion. Sometimes you aren't even sure who you want to win.

The art and music are great and atmospheric as always. Haikyuu!! has a very distinctive and fun style.

Like the first season, I'll recommend it for preteens and up for swearing.
