| Wheee~ XD Glad to see all of 'em come back!! >w< This episode really made me excited~ |
| EXCUSE ME?! D: They're all in middle school?! You gotta be kidding me. =__= most of the original characters from Prince Of Tennis look way older D: eh.....messed up. I had hope Echizen grew taller :P Anyways YAY! new prince of tennis:) I like the art alot more then the old. You can clearly see the upgrade this had compare to the old version. lol and so many "four eyes" xD haha I really like the court 3 dude and court 1 dude:) the court 5 dude just looks way old and weird o.O high school eh...... I actually really looke forward to this season:)looks to be a good one....although......what the heck is up with the ED? pfft XD i can't imagine most of that dancing! |
 |
| I hope it gets more than a 13 episode season, why not a 24 or so episode season, then return next winter, like Bakuman, if it is really only 70 chapters of possible manga material they could cover. |

| Hahaha, I loved the return of all the old characters! :D Atobe, Ryoma and Shiraishi! Ecstasy~ What was with Ryoma's epic entrance into the train anyway?! And the clapping! Haha, made me laugh so hard. :D I quite liked the opening... for about half of it. I could feel the smile slipping off my face when the singer started singing so dramatically. xD I didn't like the ending, though... I love the improvements in the animation! :D It feels waaaay better than the first season. For the dissatisfied people, compare it to (dear lord) the animation of episode one in season one. NOOOO. Eyeburn! Although as many people have mentioned, the material for this show is being used a rapid rate... I suppose the tennis matches will be drawn out over more episodes than necessary? And -insert filler here-. I loved all the fillers, though, so it doesn't matter to me! :D Yay, I'm really looking forward to this season! :D |
| Good first episode lol the ending was good with the dancing figures and all |

The problem is, many of the recent chapters only were about 6 (ye, 6!), 10 or 12 pages long. So it's gonna be 13 episodes or filler like crazy. |
 |
| I loved it! Seeing them again was so wonderfull! <3 |
    |
| WE BACK!!! Im looking forward to the show. I really hope it doesnt disappoint. Im not satisfied with the OP nd ED themes though |
| Didn't like the new art style, didn't like the op/ed. Not much I can say about the first ep.. introductions/setup and some showing off. The story better be good >_> |
| mada mada dane it shall get better |
 |
| I have been waiting for this for soooo long XD I just loved the first episode :) I missed Ryoma so much XD gotta love the ending!!!~ And His beginning shot :P |

| Holy crap. Tennis is some serious damn business here. It was pretty funny. Their shots are like freakin' magic! Also, do I need to have watched the prequel in order to enjoy this show more? |

| ASDFGHJKL I MISS THIS SERIES SO MUCH. ;A; Hearing everyone's voices again was just... ;___; ♥ The tennis matches/moves are over-the-top, but that's how it's always been. :'D I love this. And the animation was superb. *-* Loved the 'four-eyes/glasses incident', lol. BUT SERIOUSLY, THAT OP AND ED ARE AWFUL. Sanguis said: Also, do I need to have watched the prequel in order to enjoy this show more? The prequel's about 200+ episodes. I know it's long, but there's a lot of character development and whatnot (more matches, etc.) One reason I enjoyed watching the sequel was because I got to see the old characters again. I guess watching the prequel's not really necessary, but it does help. |
| [insert awesome signature here] |
| I still want to know just how strong Ryoma dad is. Ive been reading the manga and i pray they dont do any fillers. I bet Ryoma still cant touch his dad. |
| yahoo great start!! |
| sorry, my english is a little bad T_T |
| I loved it! I was an excelent ep. ^^ I'm so happy that there's a new pot *-* I missed Rikkaidai sooooo much~ TT_TT And I got the chance to see Ryoma with glasses. He's super cute! o*0*o~ |
| As an avid TPOT fan, I gotta say that I was soooooo excited that Prince of Tennis is having a sequel! I haven't watched Prince of Tennis since almost.... 4 years ago? omg.. that long. I have read the manga but not that long since I prefer the moving pictures better. But hey, I'll definitely keep watching.(I'm going to see Eiji,Seiichi and Atobe-sama in action again :3) |
 |
| I am actually preferring the anime over the manga, and that rarely happens. Good episode. |
 |
| FUCK YEAH, Echizen getting on the subway was so badass; what a way to start the series. I'm extremely surprised that they got all the voice actors back to reprise their roles... or at least all the important ones retained their voices. |

| Great episode and great entrance of Ryoma! I am just too happy prince of tennis is back! XD |
 |
| :) I just watched all the OVAs to come see this <3 Ryoma! I'm so happy! And I hate when people underestimate him -_-" But like I can't wait for more matches~! Sadly though, I want more Sakuno, Tomo, and all the other little guys from Seigaku. But it's sweet that all the middle schools are together in something. I think I'm the biggest PoT fan in history.. I love Prince of Tennis with my whole heart :) Ever since I was like 8. :D But, Prince of Tennis (I now see) has some flaws.... but that's okay because it's awesome even in its craziness. |

pladmd said: I'm confused. i thought Kaidou is the new captain of seigaku? Why's Tezuka still there? :) *just asking :) This is before Tezuka went to Germany. I actually don't know if this is canon, but it's just something after the national tournament but before everyone leaves. So yeah. Lawlz. |
| LOL, this overly dramatic opening song, it's so bad it's hilarious xD Being in the middle of the first series I had to peak in this one but the guys just turned on my fangirl mode again~ I needed some motivation... |

silvanatri said: Manga is shit compared to the anime. Anyone who is a newcomer to this show, i highly suggest you watch all the previous seasons of this show because frankly, your missing out. Sure the animation is a bit old, but the story line and the sheer epicness of it all will have you at your computer for months on end trying to watch every episode. I got into the show after it was almost done a long time ago and i spends hundreds of hours watching every episode, so i proctically died of shock when i saw the first episode of this already coming out when i have heard no news of it prior. Couldn't have said it better, I've watched the entire series several times because of it's pure epicness!! I'm a Prince of Tennis fan for life, and I'm not particularly drawn to real tennis haha.

| El Psy Congroo まだまだだね!!! |
| The animation seems really good. I'm looking forward to this little series. ^^ But holy crap the ending credits made me want to rip my own face off. What the buhfriggidy is up with the dancing???!?!!? D8 |
 |
| Oni Jujuroh is NOT a high schooler. He looks like he's the father of five high schoolers! Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| RYOMAAAAAAA <3 I died Everyone looks so good ahhhhh I was grinning the entire ep. I think I'll like Irie a lot. He's so cute. The OP & ED were meh. Ryoma + Kintarou + Tezuka + Marui + Akaya + Kenya for the ED? Strange combination. (... I still don't like Kintarou's voice though) GREAT OST as always :) |

| GODDAMN!!! The animation and art look amazing. Even our first year duo (Echizen and Toyama) look handsome as well! The comedy is really great so far, and this season looks like it has lots of potential as long as they don't throw on those copying battles or jesus door matches. That court 1 guy is hot oh god. Too bad he's too emo rn. Have I mentioned how much I like the animation? The OP doesn't suit this kind of show LOL but I like it in a way...The operatic singing is pretty damn awkward though. |
| I can't believe I put this on hold for 8 years O.o Anyway, I decided to go back to POT after the old series. I watched it more than a decade ago but I didn't get many chances to watch the sequel OVAs. Now I did and I'm now here. I fairly enjoyed this episode. The plot doesn't make sense to me for some reasons (lol) but I appreciate seeing more POT xD Ryoma with glasses is <333333 |
  |
| Echizen kicked things off with some serious style and I'm already liking where this is going. The premise of the court battles to advance higher up seems like it'll be exciting. Nearly six years since I started PoT, I never thought I'd actually get this far. |
 |
| This is looking pretty damn entertaining already. Echizen off with a strong start making sure to catch the train. This camp and the court settings could be good stuff. |
 |
| What a bunch of haughty, egotistical kids. Definitely not one of the better sports anime. |
