The Haikyu!! franchise is running a steady stream of merchandise collaborations and pop-up shops through 2026, all building toward two 2027 productions. The most recent material for those productions came on Haikyu!! Day, August 19, 2026, during the Haikyu!! RECEPTION #3 program. A concept visual for the film Haikyu!! The Movie: VS The Little Giant shows Hinata Shoyo and Hoshiumi Korai facing off at Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium. An action PV for the special anime Haikyu!! Where the Monsters Go features Bokuto Kotaro and Kiryu Wakatoshi exchanging spikes.
The day also brought a handwritten illustration from creator Haruichi Furudate, a post from voice actor Nobuhiko Okamoto, and a free three-day marathon on ABEMA. Furudate's illustration teased a collaboration manga between Hina Garasu and Manga Hinata, and the ABEMA broadcast included all 85 TV episodes, five OAD/OVA episodes, and the puppet anime. The franchise used the date to coordinate a wave of announcements and fan engagement.
Merchandise has been extensive, spanning loungewear from Palude featuring Aoba Johsai, Fukurodani, and Inarizaki characters, a Coleman collaboration with BBQ-themed goods from Season 2 Episode 11, and a Honeys apparel line covering four schools. The Qset+ figure line added Atsumu and Osamu Miya, and the mochocho series expanded to rival schools. A real lottery 'Kuji Rack Haikyu!! ~Block Ren!!~' opened September 26, and a summer pop-up shop ran from June to September. The franchise also continued its live sports tie-up with a third Volleyball Nations League collaboration, with a new visual from Production I.G.
