Freaking yes. I live for sports animes (a slight exaggeration but you know what I mean).

Can't wait for this to release! I know it's going to be quite awhile from now,
but I will occupy my time in the summer watching the swimming anime Free! xD

Anime made me love watching sports. I still can't play sports to save my life no matter how hard I try xDD

Reminds me of Ookiku Furikabutte for some reason...

Probably will have little resemblance to it except for baseball.

Nonetheless, will watch. :D

Yes! Yet another one. This is not the rumored sport manga that will be animated right? I remember the rumored one being related to volleyball, so that means we are getting another sport manga animated soon? F-YES!

STUDIO information is out. It will be a collaboration project between Madhouse and Production I.G.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

It's either High Kyuu!! or Shojo Fight. Those are the only viable volleyball series - High Kyuu has the popularity but only 60 chapters.

Haha, just like "man are from Mars, women are from Venus," the two shows appeal to opposite demographics with little overlap. Kuroko No Basket managed to narrow the gap by using basketball; which leads to its popularity. But it's look like these two shows are not compromising. Now, with the addition of great studios behind both projects, I'm interested to see which will win in sale competition between the two demos (I think Free! will be the winner since it has element of surprise)

Two bad they are not aired at the same time

this will get more TV Ratings that FRee by far ie will end making more money than Free

Looks good, i enjoy sports anime in general although baseball is not of my highest interests.

I did like one-outs and not just because of the smart-ass physiological aspect.

I'll have to give this one a watch ^^

Well, I think Ace of the Diamond is pretty much a guaranteed success seeing as the manga was popular and it has two prominent studios collabing on it.

That being said Free! is a wildcard and has gathered quite a bit of hype. Its current twitter follower count pre-airing is quite impressive, the commercial inspired a mini fanbase. It has no (published) material to gauge its success from though, so who can say? Free is pretty hard to guess at this point.

They'll probably both be quite successful though.
