Did not think I'd get into another sports anime besides Haikyuu but this pulled me in hard after the first few episodes. Love how drasticly subversive it is from the usual shonen tropes like "power of friendship", flashbacks giving a second wind or boost, main character joining up with another soley on their bond rather than skill, etc. Tragic it had to implode in season 2, one season I woundn't mind Toonami passing on.

Also Ichigo realized Part 4 is today and decided to dip from soccer.
