Netflix India Releases Haikyu!! the Movie 1: The End and the Beginning Film on July 3

Netflix India is listing the Haikyu!! the Movie 1: The End and the Beginning (Gekijō-ban Haikyu!! Owari to Hajimari) anime film on its streaming service. The film will stream on the service starting on July 3. 

Netflix India describes the story:

High school volleyball player Hinata is determined to win a national championship. He's even willing to team up with his former rival, Kageyama.

The film opened in Japan in July 2015. The second film Haikyu!! the Movie 2: The Winner and the Loser (Gekijō-ban Haikyu!! Shōsha to Haisha) opened in September 2015. Netflix India will also stream the second film on July 3.

Production I.G's anime adaptation of Haruichi Furudate's volleyball manga premiered in April 2014. The 25th and final episode of the first season aired in September 2014. The second season of the anime aired in October 2015. The third season of the anime aired in October 2016. The fourth season of the anime titled Haikyu!! To The Top started airing on January 10. The second half of the fourth season was originally slated to air in July but has been delayed due to consideration being given to the safety measures against the new coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic.

Furudate's manga has also spawned three anime specials, two other compilation films, a clay-animated special, a series of novels, and a Nintendo 3DS game adaptation.

Furudate first published a one-shot version of the manga in the Winter 2011 issue of Shueisha's Shonen Jump Next! magazine, and then ran another one-shot in the main Weekly Shonen Jump magazine later that year. In the following year, he launched the series version of the manga in Weekly Shonen Jump.
