Magic + Tennis was very fun I thought Seiichi was going to play, since he's a captain. But he was the only captain that didn't play! TT_TT Atobe's legendary card was the best! \o/ Keith is very cute *-* I thought he was a bad guy, but he did all for Shiu. The last shot form Ryoma was fantastic! Excellent film! |

I KNEW THAT CHANDELIER WAS A BAD IDEA! DX Who on earth has a chandelier in a tennis court? :S Still, the animation was great. xD Made everyone look super cute, even Kaidoh. o_o Keith was awesome! And Atobe's Koori no Sekai was cool (his VA was, at least!), even though it only lasted for a few seconds. :D I was lol-ing at the part where Higa Middle came sailing along. xD Their little flashback... and everyone sailing/riding/speeding across the water. Then Atobe raised his arm... and I thought he'd drop off for a moment. And Ryoma dropped his cap and nearly dived after it! :D So cute! |

Trying out because of him (where is he in MAL?) and the theme song. Never watched single ep. of Tenipri before. Keith and Peter are enemies (Crack?/street tennis group)?? And this guy seems to be helping Japan teams (actually he wants to have a battle against his friend). So much comedy with unreal tennis in it except those serious stuff.

An Urahara look-alike? Eh, despite the sheer ridiculousness (glowing tennis balls, crater-like impacts) of these tennis moves nothing will beat the first movie. As we all know, Tezuka destroyed the dinosaurs. A good author leaves the audience enough material to be satisfied with, yet yearning for more. |

Fuji + White Horse = PRINCE CHARMING I can't help but say that Xiu looks like Kurogane/Logan (anime ver) & Keith looks like Urahara LOL It was a nice enjoyable movie, a lot more action packed but... that magnet-bomb thingy move... I can't get my head around how it works hahaa~ |

-Kafka said: Just utterly crap >_< Agree. As much as I could stand the DBZ style tennis they played, this is just so bad. What I meant was the story/plot. They should've just sticked with the Wimbledon. Btw, wtf is with those shounen ai undertones that I sensed? TBH, this is a waste of one and the half hours of my life, too bad I couldn't get them back, how I wish I could turn back time ): The most underrated/unpopular webtoon around - Tower of God For those who want a good story, with action adventure genre, with awesome characters, setting, and world building, and a tiny bits hinted romance along with badass actions, do try out Tower of God, it'll be the best thing you ever read in your whole life till date! (am serious not exaggerating) :D |

I dislike the ''dbz style'' in Tennis no Oji-sama. That's the main reason i rated it 6/10. I love to see all the teams together, but i feel that the WImbledon idea could have turned in a better plot than that. |

I miss this anime so much, hope they would make more movies in the future. Oh, and I like the idea they didn't stick to the Wimbledon tournament because it would be boring, it would just another international tennis tournament. Annnddd, there's always this shounen-ai undertones in tenipuri, you know, each pair even had their own name and there are TONS of them! Imperial Pair (Tezuka x Atobe), Alpha Pair (Sanada x Yukimura), Perfect Pair (Tezuka x Fuji), etc (btw these are my fav pair lol) 9/10 Everything just so tenipuri~ XD Atobe is so cool as always, and Fuji <3 Ryoma is cute~ Everyone saying their catchphrase XD I wondered when would Shiraishi say his "ecstasy~" catchphrase when everyone already did theirs XD The comedy is hilarious as always (Higa chuu and Atobe's card!!! Fuji on a white horse XD). Tenipuri comedy never fail to make me laugh. Keith is cute too XD Need more tenipuri!!!!!!!!!!!!! Modified by Shicchi, 02-13-13, 10:36 AM |

Creative Movie!!! I liked how they used London as a setting but wished they could have used it more combined with their tennis as it just seems it was based on a random setting in the middle. I was hoping they would show the matches in Wimbledon but at least it was enjoyable watching Echizen and Siu versing Keith and the matches in this movie were very magical and dynamic just like the 1st Samurai movie. Overall I enjoyed the characters and setting for this movie but really hoped they could have shown the matches in the courts of Wimbledon but nevertheless was entertaining and interesting. Loved that ending song with everyone playing in the matches and the two reuniting at the very end. I'm presuming this takes place right before the U-17 Arc. Finally you have to love Ryoma's signature phrase: "Mada Mada Dane!" and everyone's teamwork with him was excellent!! 9/10 ![]() |
