I’m Just Going To Leave This Here…

I’m pissed with everyone saying haikyuu was a dead fandom for the past two years. So much content was created and movies were out and people were still loving the show. Ntm the people who read the still-coming-out manga. (This “fandom was dead” attitude is to an extent insulting to Furudate and their team who work hard to keep the manga going as well) If you think the fandom was dead it’s because you jumped ship as soon as the 3rd season stopped airing and didn’t bother to check to tags on any site. Saying the fandom was dead is such an insult to everyone who’s been in or joined the fandom, esp creators, in the past two years.

Yuki Hayashi Birthday Project! 2018 edition

In case you watch recent anime shows and you are somehow not aware, Yuki Hayashi is the brilliant composer behind the magnificent OSTs to many popular titles: Haikyuu!!, Boku no Hero Academia, Death Parade, One Piece Gold, Ballroom e Youkoso, Kiznaiver, Gundam Build Fighters, Karakuri Circus, Dive!!, Kaze ga Tsuyoku Fuiteiru —and that’s only the tip of the iceberg. Last year we already organized a project dedicated to his birthday, it was pretty grand lol and kind of complicated, we ended up having about a hundred participants from over 20 countries, and the composer was incredibly happy to receive such a gift (not even gonna lie, I’m pretty happy that we managed to make him cry x). So we decided to do something similar this year as well, only it’s going to be WAY LESS COMPLICATED and will literally take you UNDER 5 MINUTES!

Here’s what you need to do:

1) Go to this Google form and leave one (1) wish for the composer. 

That’s it. Literally.

We’ve procrastinated and now it’s finals hell, so we don’t have much time, but still couldn’t help doing at least something.

I know that many of us listen to his (and not only his) music for free for obvious reasons, and guys, first of all, I really recommend you to buy at least the CDs with your favorite music to directly support the creators, but if you can’t do it, such projects are literally the least we can do to thank them for the incredible work that they’re doing to make our experience of seeing our favorite characters come to life an unforgettable one. So please, do help us out, especially since it barely requires any effort at all from you! Just try and be creative about it :)

We’ll translate everything into Japanese, probably put it into some kind of an album and make sure it gets to the composer! I’ll let you know how it goes in January. 

His birthday is on December 31st, so please hurry up! We’ll probably wrap things up around 29th-30th.

You can also do something on your own if you wish! Hayashi-san really appreciates such things, and he absolutely loves it when people draw his dogs (especially Chloe-chan, we can see her on many OSTs covers), so don’t be shy! You can @ him on Twitter or Instagram. 

Thank you in advance for your help! Let’s show the composer that his music is really appreciated outside of Japan as well! ᕙ( * •̀ ᗜ •́ * )ᕗ

I just wanted to ask a question for bnha do you write for Shiragaki?

Hi! Uh, well, currently I haven’t really thought much about writing for the villains, but I’m always willing to give it a try! I can’t promise it can be perfect, though.
