Possibilities of Haikyuu Season 5 Release
Thankfully, there is easily enough source material for at least one more season. The manga will officially conclude in chapter 402 and with season 4 only starting with chapter 207, there is plenty of content left to adapt. Moreover, there is a probability for a sixth season too.
As the anime has not been officially renewed for a fifth season, a release date has not been revealed.

Haikyuu!! Plot
Inspired after watching a volleyball ace nicknamed “Little Giant” in action, small-statured Shouyou Hinata revives the volleyball club at his middle school. The newly-formed team even makes it to a tournament; however, their first match turns out to be their last when they are brutally squashed by the “King of the Court,” Tobio Kageyama.
Hinata vows to surpass Kageyama, and so after graduating from middle school, he joins Karasuno High School’s volleyball team—only to find that his sworn rival, Kageyama, is now his teammate.
Thanks to his short height, Hinata struggles to find his role on the team, even with his superior jumping power. Surprisingly, Kageyama has his own problems that only Hinata can help with, and learning to work together appears to be the only way for the team to be successful.
