> "Show me a sweet dream" - Coach Maeno
And that's just what this show was. A sweet dream. My only regret about watching this anime was that I watched it too quickly. Probably the fastest I've ever watched a 24+ episode anime. But I couldn't help it. And there were many reasons why. Gripping,…

This wasn't just my first anime from Mitsuru Adachi; it was a revelation, an introduction to a storyteller who, in my humble opinion, perfected his craft with this very series. I know, I know, the common refrain is that Adachi's characters can look a bit simi…

One short History about me and this series. I'm Iustin, five years ago I did make a review on the manga cross game that I read and I quite like it with a simple review.

I've devoured countless sports anime over the years, earning myself the label of "huge fan." From the iconic Slam Dunk, Haikyuu!! and Kuroko's Basketball to the gritty boxing of Hajime no Ippo and the innovative Megalo Box, I've explored both classics like Baby Steps and Ahiru No Sora and more obscu…
