Unwelcome95In essence an anime that astonish your heart for its characters, atmosphere and message.

Becoming best at ANYTHING doesn't come without strong desires colliding with each other.
An outstanding combination of the sports and shojo genres that is slightly hamstrung by its narrative's manga origin
Incredibly funny, heartwarming, and educational to boot.
Say goodbye to your Daddy Bears
A great sports show overall, not just for girls.
