It's not a pure sports anime...But if you can get over that it is probably one of the best anime dramas in recent history... I play sports in high school and I can relate so much to every single one of these characters...Sometimes the only place you can get away from your problems is out on the field or court...And sometimes the only family you really have are your teammates...It's a must watch...I promise you it will have you begging for more!!!!

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

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.

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.

People keep saying that it's not a sports anime.. So what? I think it's more than that. It's about REAL LIFE STRUGGLES! I've found it really unique and ON point! Yes, I'm disappointed that it has finished but I'd like to support it! It's been a while since I've watched something so noteworthy!

I loved this show honestly I got really sad when I heard it got cancelled I hope the story gets finished though not gonna lie I cried a little after seeing that it might just end like that lol

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.

So, this is a sweet friendship anime about tennis, yes. However it is far more than that too and does not shy away from serious topics. I really recommend this show, it is very very good, and talks about some very real issues that need to be discussed. It isn't afraid to do this realistically and therefore many issues dont just get wrapped up happily, this in my opinion makes it a very real show. I truly believe this show is a gem, it made me so happy and yet was able to break my heart in other scenes. One thing to note about lower reviews on some sites, This anime was cut down from 12 episodes to 24 too late to change the plot, this is only the first half and sadly a lot of reviews on sites don't realise this and are judging It without this in mind, as some issues are left unresolved because there is supposed to be another 12 episodes which the director intends to make. If you watch it and like it I recommend showing support if you can .

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

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.
