reincarnation as a slime
This is my hunch. It'll be easy (and I would love) for them to continue Haikyuu!! especially while the anime is still such a successful franchise. If there's anything to go from the dialogue in the recent chapter by the mangaka character it might be a hint that they are already working on their next project now.
I would be inclined to agree! I honestly can't think of another WSJ series in the modern era that feels so grounded, devoid of typical Shonen tropes, and mature in how it handles the psychological damage/aftereffects of the protagonist after their "battles". I hope it gets a successful anime soon and stays in the magazine for a long time.
This is wrong, btw. Haikyuu has taken breaks, most notably when Furudate went to Brazil for research.
Haikyu has only taken 3 breaks throughout its run, I believe.
Thanks for the information.Mashle has never left Shoseki since the day it went on sale.
I say there's a good chance of getting one eventually, though maybe not right away. A lot of the time we get sequels a few years later after the author's next couple series flop.
Just seems unlikely when the next chapter is the olympics, plus characters have been going overseas already to play. I dont think anyone wants more beyond just seing the dream team play [1] match. Anything more is just overkill especially in the context that its just another repeat of the current arc just putting Kags beside Hinata as he was for 350+ chapters already.

apart from illustrations, I thought Furudate isnt the writer of the novels. Also I dont know if people were saying step away from the franchise completely since even old series get new illustrations, I thought the conversation was more about heavily involved exploration of HQ, or the original conversation was what will Furudate do next.
I guess they could, but I really hope it doesn't end up being the case. Furudate has shown to be an amazing writer and artist, and it would be kinda sad for me if they just decided to stick forever with the same universe, characters and mechanics, instead of exploring other genres or maybe not necessarily that, it could be even sports but something else completely different. I don't think someone with so much talent and effort, that has been shown during all these 8 years, should reduce all of it to a single production/franchise. I'm really expecting them to come back in the future with maybe horror, which is something they tried previously. Of course, this is all coming from the mangaka's own volution. If they decided to stick with Haikyu!! with new sequels and content I'd completely respect their decision, but I wouldn't find it the most suitable one considering their tastes.
Story-wise they could pick up where it's ending, though we'll have to see how much the final chapter actually covers. Like SharkBait mentioned, there's also the years between the time skip - there's easily years of potential content there to mine for cash, but I doubt we'll ever get the full story. I think if Furudate does continue with Haikyuu!! content then it'll be in the way of short spin-offs more than anything. Whether it's that or a new series entirely I'll happily take anything they offer.
. I feel this manga is extremely underrated here.
It would make a lot of sense. Also worth pointing out that the final chapter is coming out on the same week the 2020 Olympics were supposed to start. Too bad the two events aren't crossing over at the same time on and off the page, that would have been something else.
wouldnt it have come out before the olympics since jump skipped a week or two because covid??
Obviously we have no way of knowing if Furudate planned it for certain to end on next week's issue, but if they did I'm sure it would have been possible to make the story a few chapters more or less overall somewhere along the way to compensate for changes in Jump/scheduled breaks. Might just be a coincidence, albeit a very specific real world crossover that feels intentional.
