I'm on episode 7 or 8 of Haikyuu now, so it's nice to see more is coming. It's good, with more humor than I thought. I like that the main character is kind of awkward rather than just being straight-up SUPER SHOUNEN BELIEVE THAT! style. My one criticism is that it can be very over-dramatic at times, with long DBZ type pauses while the ball is up in the air and the character currently having a revelation is reflecting on their entire childhood and having flashbacks of all the advice they've been given by their teammates. Sometimes I find myself checking the episode time to see if I'm near the end. Overall, though, it's an entertaining series with lots of potential character development. It's kind of amusing how little of any match is actually shown but that's the way a lot of sports anime are presented.
