What an unsatisfying ending!! I need to see more!!! Why are there only 13 episodes (I know, because the manga is just released as well but) TT______TT

Kinda sad to see Tezuka leaving, wonder if he'll appear again somewhere in the series..

Just a question though, is Yukimura not part of court 3 (former court 5)? He wasnt there on the benches during the court 5 versus (former) court 3 match... Though I think Yukimura is already beyond that of the level of the other high schoolers there, maybe except for Tezuka. Would've loved to see more Yukimura matches.

Want to see more Ryoma in action! And the others as well in matches between the middle schoolers versus the court 1 guys!

Really want and need a sequel of this!!!

Edit: wait a second, there's already a sequel (OVA) and it's ongoing?? But where can i watch it? O_____O

Minna, if you want to see the detailed matches of the parts that you are unsatisfied in the New Prince of Tennis anime, then here is the link to it: http://www.animenova.tv/category/the-new-prince-of-tennis

There are the continuation of the NPOT's 13 episode series which are the OVAs of the NPOT (New Prince of Tennis Specials). But please be reminded that those episode haven't been subbed yet... so just bear with it. :D

Not a bad season overall. I wish we got to see more matches though. During the National Tournament we got one match per episode. It's too bad this wasn't 26 episodes.

It looks like the OVAs are next.

Seems like the author lost track of the direction of this series. The original anime had much better character development and story, which made it very enjoyable. It started becoming kinda random in the nationals arc and now with the hitting multiple balls it's getting further and further away from tennis.

Well I enjoyed this one. Much better than the Nationals arc as it focused on the actual training and hard work and mental fortitude the players built up in order to play well, instead of auras and power battles and such (although if they had shown all the training that led up to the auras, I doubt I'd have minded the ridiculousness of the nationals OVAs). I do wish it was longer and showed us the matches in full though. I liked seeing the pairs duke it out once more at the end, but the lack of resolution for Ryoma vs Tokugawa is a rather anti-climactic end. This season really doesn't stand on its own, it's clear it's meant to be just one chapter in the Tenipuri journey, and I have the next OVAs to watch so I don't mind too much the lack of a real ending.

Anyway, it was nice to see Tenipuri done with gorgeous animation. All the characters looked really good, even Kin-chan was kind of handsome in his own way lol. And I'm always happy to see the different schools interact with each other.

I really love the New PoT I wish they'd make some more episode's instead of just hacing it end like that. I also love all the dramaticism in this one I how the show the players grow instead of them just coming up with some new technique out of no where.

Glad to see that the Black Jerseys took in charge of the Court 2. While the players in the opposing courts are competing, it seems like Ryoma took a step further by challenging Tokugawa again xD

IMO, this season is inferior in comparison with the old series (though much better than the National Tournament), but it's still enjoyable on its own. I'mma go ahead and watch the specials and OVAs~

7/10

Great to see that everyone's improved but I feel like Echizen still wont beat him.

Season was pretty good despite it mostly focusing on the training for the losers.
Art was fantastic too, so fun to look at.
