Even Shoyo Hinata, the ever-energetic volleyball player, needs a boost. In a new animated commercial for Aquarius sports drink, Hinata is seen recharging with electrolytes to keep reaching new heights. The commercial is part of the “Michiteru Kimi wa, Ii Kao da” (“You Look Good When You’re Full of Energy”) campaign, which highlights the importance of staying energized.
Produced by the Haikyu!! anime studio Production I.G., the commercial is tied to Aquarius’ flavor relaunch on April 21. The extended version of the ad features professional basketball player Yuki Kawamura and skateboarder Coco Yoshizawa, alongside Hinata.
In addition to the commercial, Haikyu!! fans can look forward to the upcoming Haikyu!! vs. Chiisana Kyojin (“The Little Giant”) anime film. Serving as a sequel to last year’s HAIKYU!! The Dumpster Battle, the film is currently in production at Production I.G. A release date has not yet been confirmed.
Haikyu!! is available for streaming on Crunchyroll, which includes the latest film, previous seasons, and specials. The anime, based on Haruichi Furudate’s original Weekly Shonen Jump manga, follows Shoyo Hinata’s love of volleyball. Despite his small stature, Hinata forms a volleyball team in middle school but faces a tough defeat against the “King of the Court,” Tobio Kageyama’s team. Vowing to surpass Kageyama, Hinata eventually joins the high school volleyball team, only to find Kageyama there as well.
