Yes, I agree, but I am from Russia and golf here is not so well-known.
Ochen' interesno. (Very fascinating.)Yes, I agree, but I am from Russia and golf here is not so well-known.
Well, golf is a very sensitive individual sport. It can be quite boring.

No, you are wrong, I watched some sport series and it was explained.
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.

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.

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.
Looking at today's shonens and gacha like D4DJ, there is a second renaissance of edgy and agnst things these days. I wouldn't be surprised if emo becomes trendy again lol.Hopefully it'll be better than this "Birdy wings" or what's-it's-title.

Agree with you here. I was disappointed with how Birdie Wing turned out.
However, I might keep an eye on this one to see if it's gonna take a different approach.

Don't worry, it's not all-female and it's not moe.
