Frostwork said: Agree with you here. I was disappointed with how Birdie Wing turned out. Hopefully it'll be better than this "Birdy wings" or what's-it's-title. I'll give it a try if it focuses on sport itself, it's rules and explain how golf works (like karuta was in the 1st season of "Chihayafuru" or Go in "Hikaru no Go"). And if it's just a background for another teenage "drama", than no, thanks. However, I might keep an eye on this one to see if it's gonna take a different approach. |

MalchikRepaid said: Golf is like a very common kind of sports in Japan. So, I think this anime wouldn't explain a lot about golf-related rules and norms. How is it a popular and they won't explain rules of the game? You contradict yourself. |

MalchikRepaid said: Memore said: You don't see any Japanese baseball anime or movie that explains about baseball rules.How is it a popular and they won't explain rules of the game? You contradict yourself. No, you are wrong, I watched some sport series and it was explained. |
|
MalchikRepaid said: Memore said: Perhaps our definition of explanation is different. When I watched Birdie Wing, I didn't recognize concrete things on explaining golf rules because how obvious they are. I thought most people know about golf rules like a stereotypical Asian-Canadian or Asian-American.No, you are wrong, I watched some sport series and it was explained. Yes, I agree, but I am from Russia and golf here is not so well-known. |
|
| Birdie Wing is goated so hopefully this will be as good (But not in the same way lol) |
| IMO there are way too many males in BW and therefore I ignored it If this only going to have cute little girls, and ALL of them are lesbians I might watch this =) Little golf lesbians should kiss each other,,,YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES |

| The era of more golf anime coming? |
