| @ZeroMajor12 It may well be, but it’s better not to raise your expectations in advance, remembering how in a number of cases LiSA’s songs were the only plus of some shows. However, given the popularity of the manga and the hype of the adaptation, I think that the anime will be at least not bad, even if I am not sure about the adaptation character design. |

| Looks amazing! I like sports series, hope for 20+ episodes! |

| Pretty excited for this one. I don't know what others are thinking, but for me the art and the animation in these trailers really stand above the rest. That side shot of the sitting female protagonist reminds me of the super-high detail shots that WIT Studio used to do with Vivy and Bubble. The sports action shots also feel very real and detailed. |
