Where to Watch Haikyu!! in 2023? Is It on Netflix, Crunchyroll, Hulu, or Disney+?

It was recently announced that Haikyu!! would end with a two-part anime movie that will conclude the story. In this article, we are going to tell you where you can watch the Haikyu!! anime online.

The only place where you can currently watch Haikyu!!, aside from Japanese television, is Crunchyroll. No major streaming service has the series at this moment, but that will probably change at some time in the future, although we’re not sure it’s going to happen globally. As for Crunchyroll, the service will offer the first three episodes via the free-with-ads model, but if you want to see the remaining episodes, you’ll have to subscribe to Crunchyroll.

Haikyu!! is quickly becoming a global phenomenon and although the first season has only recently premiered, it has gained a lot of attention and has become a talking point among the otaku communities around the world. In this article, we are going to give you the ultimate guide for watching Haikyuu!! online.

Where to watch Haikyu!!?

As of January 2023, Haikyu!! is only available in a limited number of places, or, to be more precise, on just one streaming service – Crunchyroll. Crunchyroll will offer the full show with English and other subtitles, as the episodes come out in Japan (simulcast). Although Crunchyroll is now a fully-paid subscription service, it will allow users to stream the first three episodes of Haikyu!! for free, after which you’ll have to buy a subscription.

Sadly, the anime is not available for streaming on any other platform, unless you’re In some specific parts of the world. This might change in the future, though, but as things stand now – there’s only one place where you can find Haikyu!! online.

Is Haikyu!! available on Netflix?

Haikyu!! is actually not available on Netflix, regardless of where you are in the world. Haikyu!!, neither in dubbed nor in subbed format, cannot be watched on Netflix; this shouldn’t come as a surprise, since Netflix doesn’t really invest in older anime series, especially those that have already been licensed by other streaming services. The reason for this is probably related to various licensing reasons.

It might be a little disappointing that a leading network like Netflix didn’t make dubbed episodes Haikyu!! available for streaming, but we assume that it has to do something with the licensing and distribution rights, although we cannot be sure that that is the actual reason.

Netflix is doing a great job in providing its subscribers with great streaming content, but it does have some restrictions in general. So if you live in a country with geographic restrictions, you may not be able to watch some of the content on Netflix even with a full subscription. And yes, in case you were wondering, you can check directly on Netflix to see if your country is geographically restricted.

But, all of that does not matter since an English dub of Haikyu!! is not available on Netflix, regardless of where you are. If you want to watch the show, you’ll just have to look elsewhere.

Is Haikyu!! available on Crunchyroll?

All episodes of the Haikyu!! anime series will be available for streaming on Crunchyroll with English subtitles. Crunchyroll currently has all of the episodes that have aired as of the time of writing this article and we’ll just have to wait it out to see when the final two-part Haikyu!! movie is going to be made available. The dubbed version of the show premiered a while ago on the platform as well, and will also be updated regularly.

So, if you want to watch all of the Haikyu!! anime episodes, Crunchyroll is your best option if you ask us.

Is Haikyu!! available on Disney+?

Disney+ does not offer any Haikyu!! content, which is, as you probably know by now, not surprising as Disney+ is generally very conservative when original content created by other studios is concerned, and anime is not just that, it is also direct competition for Disney, who takes pride in its original animated content. On top of that, this kind of content is definitely not compatible with Disney.

However, if you prefer Western animation and maybe some other anime series (although the offer is quite limited), Disney+ has a more than great library full of amazing animated content that will satisfy all your needs.

One of these animated series is The Simpsons, which is still very popular with 33 seasons as of December 2021. Some other similar shows, both animated and live-action, that might attract your attention include Gravity Falls, The Mighty Ducks, and the Star Wars series, including the very popular The Mandalorian.

Is Haikyu!! available on Funimation?

Haikyu!! is not available on Funimation either. The best dubbed-anime source in the US doesn’t offer this series to its subscribers, which is a bit surprising, but the series is licensed by Crunchyroll so it’s understandable that they want to keep their assets for themselves.

One major issue with Funimation, in general, is that it is not available around the world, so even if you could stream the complete Haikyu!! series, you’d only be able to access it from a limited number of countries. Luckily, these problems don’t apply to this show.

Is Haikyu!! available on Hulu?

At this moment, Haikyu!! is not available for streaming on Hulu, neither the subbed, nor the dubbed version of the show. Hulu is not one of the major players in the world of streaming, but nonetheless, it has a solid anime library, which is why it’s a bummer that Haikyu!! is not in it.

Hulu is a streaming service that primarily offers live-action shows and movies, but, as we have said, there’s also a lot of anime, although Haikyu!! is, unfortunately, not among the anime in Hulu’s library. Another big issue is that Hulu is not available around the world so there are certain restrictions if you don’t live in the United States.

As you can see, Hulu is not a good place to look for Haikyu!!, as it doesn’t have it in its library, but it wouldn’t be your best pick even if it had it, since the location restrictions on Hulu are large and if you’re a non-US fan, you’d have a lot of trouble with Hulu.

Is Haikyu!! available on HBO Max?

Haikyu!! cannot be streamed on HBO Max either. Namely, the streaming service simply doesn’t have the show among its titles, so if you’re a subscriber and have been looking to see the show, we don’t have any good news for you. HBO Max does have some anime series you can enjoy, but Haikyu!! is not on it.

But, if you actually do have a free trial or an ongoing subscription to HBO Max, you can also watch other great anime shows, some of which are true classics that need to be watched regardless of whether you’re a fan or not.

Luckily, HBO Max has a truly great anime library so fans will definitely find something for themselves if they want to explore other shows aside from Haikyu!!. Some other great anime on HBO Max include Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Death Note, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Re:ZERO.

Is Haikyu!! available on Amazon Prime?

Haikyu!! still isn’t available for streaming on Amazon Prime. This is relatively strange as Amazon Prime has a solid slate of anime on its service, but it seems that Haikyu!! isn’t on it at this moment. This, sadly, also includes Amazon’s non-Prime pay-per-view library, which means that you cannot rent or buy the individual Haikyu!! episodes as well.

Now, as we have said above, what surprised us the most is the fact that Amazon doesn’t even offer the anime episodes for purchase, as it does with a lot of other shows via its pay-per-view model (for example, One Piece or Black Clover). Such series cannot be streamed, but you can buy each episode individually and then own them, so you can watch them anytime you want.

One advantage of the rent or buy option on Amazon is the lack of restriction, either in time or location. Anywhere in the world, you can buy any available season or episode of a show, which is a good thing since some streaming services don’t offer their full slate for all countries. Once rented, you have only a limited amount of time to watch each episode for the same price, whereas with a purchased copy, you have unlimited time.

But, sadly, none of this applies to Haikyu!!, whether you’re an Amazon Prime member or not.
