Prince of Tennis - Atobe's Gift

___________________________________________ Review the 2nd

Chihuahua Review(short&sweet): A fun, continuation extra to the Prince of Tennis. If you like the original series non-chibi fillers you'll probably like this.

------------------------------>In Depth Review:<------------------------
STORY: This is a huge bonanza with every single character from the original series participating. Here Atobe of Hyotei Gakuen hosts a celebration to express his deep gratitude to a certain friend. During this time a variety of games are played including a dating game>_< and a relay. Story not really, but entertainment is there.

ART: Art was well done again the characters looked vibrant and the animation quality is still improving. But still it wasn't really as great without the high quality tennis scene. So in my opinion quality was passable for an extra episode.

SOUND: There wasn't an opening so i can't judge it. The ED though was one of my favorite of the series as it created some nice closure to the episode and had a really fun beat to it.

CHARACTER: All the chracters were here. Obviously no character developement unless u count Atobe's sudden good will. Even without the character developement its nice to see ALL of the characters that werent shown for a while. My favorite reunion was the lame joke guy who made the wackest japanese puns ever and then doing his little blow laugh psshXD. Seigaku fans however may feel a little unsatisfied with the regulars small but hilarious appearances.

ENJOIMENT: As a filler this definately isn't my favorite but like i said earlier it is fun to see all the characters in various events. Only one episode so no reason to not just watch it. ^_^

OVERALL: Not really a story but with some decent sound and art it doesn't really matter. No developement, character wise but with all the fun who really cares.

Recommendation: If you liked the original series watch this for sure. And if you liked this watch the National Tournament ^_^ for more tennis antics.

If you dissagreed OR agreed fully with me on anything feel free to message me and discss it. Always fun. @_@

I didn't particularly like Atobe that much in the Prince of Tennis animes, but after watching this, he became one of the characters i like the most (not first tho, because that is Kaidoh
