Prince of Tennis: The National Tournament Semifinals

Story
As the National Tournament continues, Seigaku tries to climb to the top by beating relatively stronger opponents and in the semifinals they face one of the most intimidating tennis clubs--in order not to spoil anything, thats all for the plot ^^--.

Art
Splendid! Yep, it is almost flawless and some visual effects are way better than some so-called supernatural, action anime out there...

Sound
Seiyuus are just great but there is not a major change or improvement in the music or the sound from the original tv series, thus we can say that it is not best but again one of the better ones...

Character
Delicious! It will serve at least one character you will like. For instance, in Seigaku, we have extremely coooool guy called Tezuka(i saw him smile just once O.o), genious, cute but dangerous one called Fuji, collected and helpful Oishi, acrobatic as well as faithful Kikimaru, burniiiiing Takashi, snake-ish and sometimes scary Kaidoh, energetic Momoshiro, data guy Inui and, quite cocky and talented shounen Ryoma... These are just from Seigaku, there are many new, well-drawn characters in this OVA as well...

Enjoyment
This IS PoT, even in this short 6 episodes, it gives nothing less than what you expect regarding enjoyment. Since i have never seen somebody who started watching PoT and had remorse afterwards, should you watch PoT, it will certainly keep you quite a loooong time and you will gladly accept this fact^^... However, sadly when it finishes, in the end you will realize that you want more of it... Anyways, I throughly enjoyed this show, so it's a 10 out of 10.

Overall
Just watch PoT, you will see what i mean!
