Synopsis

This is the story of Nanase Iruke. She's short, tomboyish, and her one joy in life is volleyball. On Iruka's 17th birthday her Volleyball club is disbanded. Feeling somewhat depressed she and her friends from the club take a trip to the beach and discover Beach volleyball. Iruka cant wait to play and rushes to the court only to be told to give up being a player because of her short stature by the local Volleyball Diva. In a rage Iruka challenges her to a match to prove her abilities. It doest look like she has a chance but Iruka has a secret weapon and nobody will ever make fun of her on the beach again....well....Not about her ability to play Volleyball anyway...

This is more or less your typical "sports" story, all be it with cute girls in bikinis on the beach , playing beach volleyball.

The story honestly until the latest few chapter was a bit dull and sluggish , despite all the nice eye candy.That said the last few chapters, have picked up a bit offering a bit more character and plot development.


All in all its not totally bad , worth a look and hopefully will continue to improve in the future.

They are both about smaller people proving that they are good at the sport they do the olny difference would be the echii feel is not there in New Prince of Tennis.
Beach Stars follows a female volleyball team, while Overdrive follows a bicycle team comprised soley of boys. The main protagonists energy and passion for their respective sport is what i've found similar in both of these manga.
