Fastest finger first is obviously trying something new. something fresh to the sports genre. However, it just doesn't work. With so little variables in the actual sport of quizzes it's hard to enjoy that aspect of it. Who can push the button first and how to predict the question. Those are the only two things that really effect the quiz. The key to a good sports anime is to have lots of variables, making it unpredictable. This show just can't do that and it's obvious from the start. With only two things making the sport, the fastest finger and prediction, its hard to really get excited.

The characters don't feel very connectable or interesting either. Especially with the over exaggeration of common tropes.

- hidden talent main character
- dude with the glasses always making those poses and pushing up his glasses
- overpowered rival, seemingly undefeatable
- over analysing simple things to make the situation more entertaining

I feel like i cant really get across these tropes very well but believe me they are present. I am not usually effected by common tropes but the characters feel like they had zero effort into creating them.

Also, the main female character in the show has a horrible voice actress, or at least a bad choice of actress. The voice doesn't suite the character at all. It becomes very off putting very quickly, especially because of how much screen time she gets. It sounds unprofessional, which just adds to the list of things wrong with the show.

Overall, it's good that they tried something new, but it just doesn't work. The show is quite boring and just doesn't work as a sports anime. The characters are weak and had little to no effort put into them as of episode 6. But I don't see them improving at this point. The soundtrack is present, neither good nor bad. Animation is good. I wouldn't recommend this show to anyone.
