The context of this anime is quite simplistic. The main character with glasses called Makoto Tsukimoto a.k.a "Smile" with his best friend Yutaka Hoshino a.k.a "Peco" have been ping pong players since childhood. Unlike Peco, who devotes all his energy to this sport, Smile only plays for fun and shows his disinterest in making a career out of it. In their adventures, these two protagonists will face extremely powerful opponents and will be training like crazy in the hope of shining on the international stage.
Even if all the episodes are interesting to watch, the best thing about this anime is clearly its ending with its brilliant moral. These 11 episodes were clearly not a waste of time because it made me realize how much more important the love we bring to the sport is far more important than the desire to win. The conclusion is perfect for a story like this so I recommend watching it!
