description Haikyu!!: Lev Appears! Overview
Nekoma High School's volleyball team recruits a new member: the half-Japanese, half-Russian Lev Haiba. Though the self-proclaimed ace is blessed with great height, he lacks basic volleyball techniques. This gives the team's setter, Kenma Kozume, a hard time when matching up with him. To everyone's surprise, Nekoma's coach suggests that Lev play in the Kunihira Senior High School's practice match, leaving Kenma no choice but to cooperate with the tall player.
Will Kenma be able to overcome this new challenge?
help Haikyu!!: Lev Appears! FAQ
When does Haikyu!!: Lev Appears! take place in the Haikyu!! timeline?
The OVA takes place after Nekoma loses the Tokyo Interhigh preliminaries and before the Tokyo training camp seen in the main series. It focuses on Nekoma preparing Lev Haiba for future matches rather than advancing Karasuno's story.
Why does Kenma struggle to set for Lev Haiba?
Lev is a very tall first-year middle blocker, but his approach timing and basic technique are still unreliable. Setter Kenma Kozume must adjust to Lev's unusually high contact point while teaching him how Nekoma coordinates its attacks.
Is Haikyu!!: Lev Appears! an OVA or a regular TV episode?
It is a bonus OVA commonly called The Arrival of Haiba Lev, not an episode from a numbered television season. The approximately 22-minute special was originally bundled with a limited edition of Haikyu!! manga volume 15.
Does Karasuno play a full match in Lev Appears!?
No, the story is primarily about Lev, Kenma, Kuroo, Yaku, and the rest of Nekoma. Karasuno is not the focus, so viewers looking for the next major match should continue with the main Haikyu!! television series.
