There's no way to watch Haikyuu!! dubbed as of now.
Fans believe it'll come back to Crunchyroll because they're also dubbing the movie.
It's still not confirmed, and the date is unknown.
The merger between Crunchyroll and Funimation (both platforms were owned by Sony) was far from perfect. Fans were promised that all the content would be transferred from Funimation to Crunchyroll, but the reality was completely different.
Many series were simply left in a legal void, unavailable for legal streaming. Others were made available only subbed (or only dubbed) when Funimation had both versions.
One of the latter anime is Haikyuu!! — and it's especially upsetting because fans believe the dub for that is actually good. However, after the transfer, the dub is no longer available on Crunchyroll. Fans are disappointed, but they actually believe it will come back.
Movie Will Be Coming to American Theaters, and It's Receiving a Dub
The recently released movie Haikyuu!! The Dumpster Battle is one of the most anticipated releases of 2024. While it's only available in Japan, it's also coming to North American theaters, as well as other territories later on — and, presumably, to legal streaming later this year.
And of course, in the West, the movie will be available both subbed and dubbed. As such, fans believe when it finally comes to Crunchyroll for streaming, the dub will also be available — and because of this, they also expect the dub for the TV seasons to be made available too.
Why Fans Are Still Optimistic
With Sony owning both Funimation and Crunchyroll, they also have the rights for both subbed and dubbed versions in the United States. So, logically, the dubbed version should be available on Crunchyroll — but it isn't. Fans believe that's because the merger between the two services happened very quickly, and there was no quality control.
Still, fans believe the dub will come back at some point. The reason is simple: with the dub for the movie (presumably) coming to Crunchyroll, the rest of the series should be made available dubbed as well. After all, there's no reason to only have the dub for the latest entry in the series.
It's important to remember, however, that while fans are optimistic, that actually might not end up being the case. Many series were left without any way to legally stream them after the merge.
The dub for Haikyuu!! might not be an exception, as sad as that sounds. And even if it does get to Crunchyroll eventually, there's no set date for when the movie (or the dub for the series) is coming there, just speculations from fans.
The movie is getting dubbed, too.
