The Hollywood Reporter shares that the anime film is exceedingly popular all over the world, especially in China where the film is reported to have made a large profit at the box office.

With Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle still in theaters worldwide, we expect the film to continue to smash through viewership heights that we never thought possible. For now, let's explore what fans can expect now that have a good feeling that the upcoming second part of the film will also be a hit at the box office.
Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle is only the beginning of Karasuno's fight to the top
During the 2024 film, Karasuno and Nekoma finally face off as rivals on Japan's acclaimed volleyball stage!
A showoff between the two volleyball teams was always fated to happen but never did. This is because neither team was skilled enough to go to Japan's very best tournaments. That is until now.
With Karasuno polishing themselves to be a formidable team and with Nekoma being as sly as ever, understanding how to make aggressive but effective plays as a team, the showdown between the teams is everything but boring. Every player desires to be on the court, showing their skills to the world. And now that they get to the place they've been vying for quite some time, there is nothing holding them back.
Nekoma gives it their very best. So much so that they even get their most timid player, Kenma, out of his shell. However, Karasuno, with their many parts that have created an unstoppable machine, are just too good and, ultimately, secures the victory.
With Karasuno moving on to the next stage of Japan's quarterfinals, they are off to play against yet another team that will dictate whether they will go to the final stages of the tournament. The teams that will play in the decisive quarterfinals and finals include Karasuno, Kamomedai, Fukurodani, Inubushi Higashi, and Ichibayashi.
But who will come out on top?
We expect Haikyu!!'s sequel film to follow these tournaments as well as the aftermath of everything that happens after Japan's finals, so if you've been itching to see some more epic showdowns and, potentially, some time skips, the upcoming sequel isn't one you want to miss!
More information regarding the next part of the Haikyu!! series will be revealed soon enough. Until then, be sure to head to your local theater to aid in making Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle, a film that goes down in history!
