Although the music presented in the Prince of Tennis does suit the mood and is pretty upbeat at times, there really isn't a score that will stand out to you, where you'll be saying, 'Ah!! I need that on my computer/ipod.' Nevertheless, its relatively enjoyable The sound, I would say, is probably the weakest point of the show. As for the animation, you'll see a lot of repeated frames throughout the show (as usual with sports anime), but the way they animate all of the new skills and tennis matches is just so amazing, that after some of the matches, you just stare in awe at its magnificence. It starts off so-so, but before you know it, it gets to that level where you're impressed by it.
And of course, the overall theme is to aim for the top of the tennis world. Echizen join the Seigaku high school tennis team and participates in tournaments with them. Now you're probably thinking, 'Well, where's the fun in that?' Well, Echizen is always going up against top-notch opponents and throughout the show, you'll witness him going from a cocky, immature kid to one who actually respects his opponents (well, sort of anyway) and development of new, exciting skills. The Prince of Tennis pulled something out of the ordinary and made Echizen an amazing tennis player right from the start. Normally, with sports anime, you see the rise of a certain young star from not being a very good player to being the ace Along with Hajime no Ippo, the Prince of Tennis helped start the rave with sports-driven anime craze, and its not really a wonder why a lot of those anime use many of the elements from the Prince of Tennis - its so good that its still being animated (in OVA form) this very day. The Prince of Tennis - a sports-driven anime that debuted back in 2001, depicts the story of Echizen Ryoma and his experiences in the world of tennis.
Ryouma and his teammates must learn to cooperate if they want to become the champions they aspire to be. Yet, the road ahead of them is shared by a plethora of strong schools, each playing tennis in unique ways for their own reasons. In order to do so, the team must qualify by playing through the Tokyo Prefectural and Kanto Regionals. Due to his age, the rest of the Seishun Boys' Tennis Team are initially reluctant to accept him, but his skill and determination convinces them to let him in.Īrmed with their new "super rookie," Seishun sets out to claim a spot in the National Tournament, hoping to take the coveted title for themselves. Aiming to become the best tennis player in the country, he enrolls in Seishun Academy-home to one of the best middle school tennis teams in Japan.Īfter Ryouma catches the captain's eye, he finds himself playing for a spot on the starting lineup in the intra-school ranking matches despite only being a freshman. At the request of his father, tennis prodigy Ryouma Echizen has returned from America and is ready to take the Japanese tennis scene by storm.
