Haha to be fair though, that's a clip from one of their OVAs/movies rather than from the actual anime show. I loved PoT and so far I like the 2nd season. I just love all the crazy moves and mind games they always throw at each other.

Shit, I forgot Tezuka killed the dinosaurs! So good in its ridiculousness, haha.

Prince of Tennis was awesome, plus the anime had those hilarious chibi-style filler episodes, aka BEST FILLERS EVER. Only sad thing was I ended up not liking Seigaku as a team very much which is kind of unfortunate since, y'know, they kept on beating everyone else...

Also, if you haven't watched the live action musicals, you should do yourself a favor and get on that. I think most of them are on youtube. Playing tennis! And SINGING about playing tennis! They're something special

It gets better when the main character beats Lleyton Hewitt in the US Open grand final, and comes back to Japan and struggles to defeat his rival from high school.

Its best to just stick to the first arc and ignore it after that, because after that it gets into filler hell, and everyone knows that's when shit stops making sense.

never liked prince of tennis sadly, it was interesting at first but then it went retard mode, come on its a sports anime for gods sake.

and that is why to this day and forever Slam Dunk will remain the best sports Anime/Manga.

The only thing I disliked about PoT was that as soon as a character learned how to do a technique correctly, they instantly won because they could pull it off perfectly and it automatically trumped every move the other player had. I'm taking about taking match point, 0-40 0-5 and winning the set just because they learned a new technique. Even though it took them half the game to figure it out, as soon as it clicks, they can perform it perfectly without stamina/nerves/messing up issues.

This is one of the reasons I liked Kaido because you saw that he had to earn his skill and techniques.
How does it feel knowing you wasted another 3 seconds of your life reading this again?

It really sucks how every sports manga/anime eventually adapts the DBZ storyline after the 1st arc. You learn all these cool things you never knew about a niche sport. A while later the main character starts learning about some inner energy and learns that instead of outwitting your opponent or training, you can simply just wait till you're just about to lose and then suddenly gain the ability to do a kamehameha and win the game.

Very rarely do you get one that keeps it realistic and fresh at the same time.

Although not anime, you guys should really watch Shaolin Soccer. Its a great live-action satire of the DBZ style storyline, but soccer.

Prince of Tennis was fun I'll tell you though, every time Seigaku is playing early on against... I think it was Tachibana's team? When it's the guy with the Spot shot, and Echizen's going up to play him, and it's towards the end of the episode and there's this massive build up using the Opening song... I seriously just get chills down my spine thinking about that moment. Does anyone else know what I'm talking about?

Reading this remind me that i need to make a thread about the godlike manga/anime Gintama
Edit: Also talking about sport manga:
Slam Dunk (basketball): One of the best sport manga i have ever seen, funny too.
Jindo?(soccer): Not sure how to translate it from my languange but that manga is super funny. The first part is really good. The first half of the second part is SUPER SUPER FUNNY and then i don't know what happened but the manga starts to slip after that. Maybe because of the mangaka doesn't get enough money
I hate all this singing

This is why I never got into PoT or any other sports manga/anime. I want them to be realistic but I know they will most likely never be >_>

Hajime no Ippo was cool though.
