People really be throwing 2's and 3's on this anime. It's a good anime. If you think you're going to Japan and you'll be welcomed by ara-ara's then yeah, it's not for you probably.
You guys need to stop butchering this anime. Maybe I pumped up the ratings a bit, but this anime does not deserve a 6.5 rating (18 feb).
The anime resembles real life more than anything else that I've ever seen. I enjoy it, it just feels like something that would happen in real life. Don't compare it with the other volleyball anime, this one is more realistic. You won't be able to hit the ball with your eyes closed.
It's a slice of life, but sports edition.
Don't be bothered by the reviews, just give it a try, it won't disappoint.
