    I came for the tennis and ended up crying

    I thought this was gonna be like a new generation of Prince of Tennis, I was wrong. It's about a friendship that resulted in a very good teamwork but it's also about the issues in families and teenagers today and I like the fact that they focus on the boys cause it's hard for boys to talk about their feelings. I really do hope this doesn't end badly

    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...

    Unique and realistic!

    The anime isn't really your typical sports anime, to put it shortly it's like Magical Madoka. There are several incidents that are touched upon and are very well written in. Your characters seem almost dislikable at the start however they grow and mature which you dont see in most anime . I highly recommend this as it shows how something as simple as soft tennis (unofficial tennis) is an escape for people who have very bad problems at home and their team mates help them cope with their issues in a healthier way.
