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
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.
You might say "Another sports anime? come on". You are wrong, even unlike Haikyuu this anime takes on more Slice of Life approach and kids with some serious heavy baggage they carry. Just like any person on earth has problem, these kids have too and not many, almost 99% of the anime have overlooked this part of the characters life. But not this anime.
So far not many episodes have been released, so this anime might become and discard the only beautiful and unique thing it has, Slice Of Life! But let's hope this anime meets the expectations it has created in the first 5 episodes.
all in all, this is a very unique sports anime and has a good style so far.

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.
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
