    I usually avoid sport anime, but this is addicting as hell.
    Welcome to the awesome side.

    I just finished binge re-watching it over the weekend. EP15/16 still has more feels than I could carry in a fucking oil tanker.

    I love Haikyuu. I think I picked it up because of comments on here as well, but I still think the most feels I've ever had for a sports anime is season 2 of Kuroko no Basket. It has some of my top favorite moments in anime period.

    I felt that way about sports anime for a long time.

    Hajime no Ippo, Yowamushi Pedal, One Outs, Chihayafuru, etc all seem to break the mold of what you'd expect from a boring show and make it great instead.

    I never watched One Outs. The concept of gambling and baseball did sound interesting though. The other 3 shows you mentioned are fan-fucking-tastic though. There are a lot of good sports anime and most of them follow the mold of either being about kids struggling and learning a lesson or blah blah, or they involve super powers (like Eyeshield 21 or Prince of Tennis). Major follows the protagonist from childhood to winning the World Series, which is rare and kind of funny lol

    Made the mistake of reminding myself that Toaru blahblahblah Railgun exists. Does anyone know if there is a 3rd season in the pipeline at all or is it totally unknown?

    I mean...70% of the episodes from both seasons are crap but Railgun going all Railgun is A+ and I want more.

    ^ Fuck. Yeah. Man, I love that theme song! I am hoping the character portrayal of the more recent oav stuff stays. I love the original 3 TV series and early movies (as well as therecent Fujiko and Jigen oav ones). The 1980-2000 era moves are horrible type cast/stereotype personalities for the main cast. Still love em, but shallow ghosts of what this series is.

    Honestly most sports anime this past few seasons are great, Haikyuu, Yowamushi Pedal, Hajime no Ippo, Diamond no Ace, Baby Steps, Chihayafuru?, etc. The only little thing that put me off a little was the mix of supernatural/magic with basketball in Kuroko and it was still decent after the fact. Probably same reason I dont like prince of tennis all that much either.

    Agreed. Though I did found the magic basketball in Kuroko an interesting quirk that I enjoyed nonetheless.

    Now all we need is a Slam Dunk! remake. The original series never covered all of the manga and I really want to see Shohoku vs. Sannoh animated.

    JC staff is too busy with other stuffs. We're due a S3 by now, but I'd expect index S3 if it did before railgun S3. If you really want more railgun, I'd recommend picking up the manga. Batoto has it and a bunch of specials/spinoffs. The index light novel also has a good amount of Biribiri. The part where
    Spoiler: show
    she finds out he lost his memories
    is one of my favorite parts.

    The only sports anime I need in my life is Eyeshield 21. I'm only really excited for One Punch Man this season but probably also Lupin. That intro reminded me why I liked Lupin as a kid. Everything else.. doesn't seem as appealing.

    I just hope it's more Lupin and less Gijinden Roman.

    The only thing on this list that isnt a continued series that looks interesting to me is Comet Lucifer. (I see wings/feathers. I'm a sucker for wings.) But I'm with several people that have said already, I'll wait for word of mouth.

    Zero interest in sports anime! And Chari knows whats up with some more Yuruyuri coming our way.
