Two 2027 productions are set. A concept visual for Haikyu!! The Movie: VS The Little Giant shows Shoyo Hinata and Korai Hoshiumi facing off at Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium, and an action PV for the special anime Haikyu!! Where the Monsters Go features Kotaro Bokuto and Wakatoshi Kiryu exchanging spikes. Both were revealed during the Haikyu!! RECEPTION #3 program on August 19, 2026, which the franchise marked as Haikyu!! Day with a handwritten illustration from creator Haruichi Furudate and a post from voice actor Nobuhiko Okamoto, who voices Yu Nishinoya. ABEMA ran a free marathon of all 85 TV anime episodes, five OAD/OVA episodes, and the puppet anime from August 19 to August 21.
Merchandise drives most of the recent activity. Production I.G supplied newly drawn visuals for a Rilakkuma collaboration, with 12 images pairing Karasuno, Aoba Johsai, Nekoma, Fukurodani, and Inarizaki characters with Rilakkuma and Korilakkuma, and a pop-up tour running from November 20, 2026 into 2027. A separate Production I.G pop-up shop opening October 23, 2026 uses cultural festival visuals of eight characters including Hinata and Tobio Kageyama.
Beyond retail, the series continues to appear alongside real volleyball. The Volleyball Nations League collaboration returned for a third time with a Production I.G visual of Hinata and Hoshiumi, collaboration videos with Japanese national team players, and a position diagnosis tool. The Haikyu!! On the Court event in Tokyo drew MAZZEL members RAN and EIKI, who tested their reach against the characters' athleticism.
