Synopsis

The National Tournament continues for Ryouma Echizen and the Seishun Academy Boys' Tennis Team as they face off against last year's semifinalist, Shitenhouji Middle School. As winners of the Kansai Regionals, Shitenhouji is one of the top contenders to win this year's tournament. What's more, each member of the Shitenhouji team has skills that are said to surpass their Seishun counterparts. Shitenhouji also has Kintarou Tooyama, another "super rookie" who rivals Ryouma in strength and technique. Seishun will have to push the limits of their abilities to stand a chance at defeating the Kansai champions in this East versus West matchup.

Score: 7

Art: As good as ever but not perfect. For a sports anime though? It's more than enough...
Score: 8

Overall Review: 4.8 out of 10

Story: 3

First of all, let me clarify that in this section there will be a majority of "SPOILERS" regarding these OVAs, because I want to exemplify the reason for my discharge. Now with this explained let's get started.
In previous reviews I have always chosen to defend this title, its history and above all the fantasy that carries over it, because there is more of this, there was always an "extra" that caused you not to notice so much in the amount of inconsistencies and situations outside of physics they were happening so it was fun. Unfortunately at this point there ...

This rushed mess is weighed down by how much it has to get through in the short amount of time as well as bizarre writing. Not only is this super rookie new rival a brain damaged shonen hero (if you’re going to be someone’s rival, at least get their damn name right and don’t try and throw a tantrum when you don’t get your way) but what are these umpires doing when someone plays tennis violently enough to cover a child and the court in blood!?

The Prince of Tennis on a larger whole has suffered from the fact that people are allowed to brutally ...
