Ooi! Tonbo 2nd Season

After graduating middle school, Tonbo Ooi sets sail from the isolated island of Tokara to Kumamoto in hopes of advancing her golf career. Using his connections, Tonbo's mentor Kazuyoshi Igarashi is able to convince coach Hajime Udou to train her. While Tonbo initially has trouble showing off her abilities with her peculiar playstyle and inexperience with using a variety of golf clubs, she quickly proves her worth at her course debut by making use of her unique skills.

Leaving an impression on Hajime and the people around her, Tonbo is sent to compete in the Kyushu Women's Championship. Met with familiar faces and new rivals, she is determined to dive deeper into the professional world of golf.

Are you looking for the best sports anime in 2024? This anime is the answer..

The reason: because I, who don't know about golf and its rules, still enjoy the anime since the 1st season of the anime. The 1st season might have some shortcomings because Tonbo is still a junior high school teenager, but the 2nd season "chef kiss"

I was made to laugh and scream with joy many times watching this anime, the character of Tonbo is really a character that comes out of the box.

From the music, animation, and story is very interesting. Sometimes the drama makes us excited, sometimes we will be sad. ... For this 2nd season, the focus of the story is not only telling about Tonbo, But some characters will also be introduced and the portion is good. The character development is also all interesting. I just watched episode 8, but I'm sure I will watch the anime again if it's complete.

Preliminary (8/? eps)

What a wild ride we've all been on who decided to stick with Oi Tonbo for a second season, and as such I've been moved to once again write a view for this show—as it deserves people talking about it.

As I stated in my review for season 1 of Tonbo, THAT show was not really about golf, but rather a semi-philosophical confrontation between its two main characters about what was important in life—all played out through the "medium" of golf.

When season 2 for Tonbo was announced, I was very worried that it would be unable to live up to and continue what has quickly become ... one of my favourite shows of all time. Oi Tonbo season 1 is a VERY complete story, and it didn't really feel like it needed to continue. So where did that leave the creators of season 2?

The answer is that the creators of Oi Tonbo season 2 clearly knew that they couldn't recapture what made season 1 so special and complete, and instead they simply "decided" to do the next best thing; telling a truly excellent sports anime story in the more classic style. Said differently, where season 1 wasn't really about golf, THIS show very much IS about golf, and more specifically the feelings that the people playing it has for the sport, thus reminding me of other sports animes such as Captain Tsubasa or similar.

No, Oi Tonbo season 2 might not be something "unique" like its predecessor was, but where it shines is in telling a story about the "joy of sport" in the best way; focusing on a diverse group of heroines, all with their own unique styles and struggles when it comes to the game they play. And it is all very engaging to watch as these characters try to outdo each other in their own special ways—and all while standing in awe at the oddball antics of our protagonist. Indeed, though Tonbo is our main character, as one watches the show, it is hard not to root for all of her rivals. The viewer comes to like all of them and wanting to see them succeed.

Said simply, with Oi Tonbo season 2 we once again have a very good show on our hands. And watching it feels like spending time with old friends after not seeing them for a while.

I hope this review has been helpful and thank you for reading.
