    I loved it ! Highly recommend

    I thought it was a sport average anime. But turned out a really nice story , and especially the characters amd their story ????Each one of them?!!? I love it !

    And the two last minutes took my breath away

    Highly recommend!

    Another sports anime you would like to see

    I have recently got obsession for sports anime and definitely this is not shame I really like this one.. It is also slice of life and not going of the track telling what happens at home but still keep fighting the best.... Like it alot...

    It's good

    I enjoyed it, it's not the best anime out there but it's entertaining. I liked the friendships, the representation and the message that tries to convey: everyone struggles with something. Recommend.

    Despite the genre, not a sports anime

    I came into this anime expecting it to be another sports anime. Instead week after week my hearts breaks a little for each of these characters as their backstory gets told and their home life is revealed. I've cried way too many times this season. This is one of the best anime I've seen in a long time and it's going to make you feel things.

    More than I expected, highly recommend

    This show is really good, it's so much more than just a typical sports anime. It deals with serious themes and can be hard hitting at times. So far I'm loving it and the characters are warm and realistic. I seriously hope it does well, if you haven't watched it yet please do, also be sure to stay around till after the credits or you can miss something important. Was supposed to be a 24 episode series but got cut to 12 but the writer wants to complete it when possible, so likely to get continued if supported for anyone who has heard the ending isn't finished it's because there is supposed to be more after it. Really hoping for more, I love this show so much
