    Baby Steps



    Summary: Eiichirō Maruo, a first year honor student, one day decides he is unhappy with the way things are and lacks exercise. He finds a flier for the Tennis Club and decides to check it out. He is instantly captivated by it. With no prior experience and poor physical conditioning, he embarks on a tennis journey using his smarts, dedication and work ethic. He uses his inherent studious nature to develop an extremely strategic approach to tennis, taking notes on the habits and tendencies of his opponents thus allowing him to predict their shots before they make them.

    Another good sports anime to watch. The characters are good and the progression is genuinely interesting. Eiichiro is funny as fuck.

    Yeah same here, shame it didn't seem to get noticed but I enjoyed the series. Glad to hear a second season is coming, same with Haikyuu I suppose?

    I haven't seen confirmation for Haikyuu which makes me incredibly nervous / sad.

    I thought the series and the animation itself was kind of slow and meh to begin. But it's really gotten better and better as it progressed. Stoked to hear about a second season. It has TONS of source material in the manga to go off of. Like 200+ chapters worth.
