In honor of Haikyu!! Day on August 19^th, Jump Channel has dropped a fresh JUMP MV powered by the high-energy anthem “Hikariare” from BURNOUT SYNDROMES — just in time to spike fans’ excitement.

The music video blends Haruichi Furudate’s manga art with videography from the Sendai City Gymnasium. The facility is undergoing renovations after 40 years serving the community’s sporting and recreation needs.

Formed in 2005, BURNOUT SYNDROMES is a three-piece rock band from Osaka comprised of guitarist and vocalist Kazuumi Kumagai, bassist Taiyu Ishikawa, and drummer Takuya Hirose. Three of their songs have appeared as opening themes for Haikyu!!: “Fly High!!” in season two, “Hikariare” in season three, and “Phoenix” in season four. BURNOUT SYNDROMES actively tour the word, successfully completing their first solo series across the United States in 2024.

The Jump Channel included a synopsis on Haikyu!!:
