Sports Anime? (Including Racing)

[y0l3itches]

Well besides Major and some soccer animes, all the animes I came across are pretty good but some of them turn out unrealistic. Major is like a slice of life anime with baseball and I myself is a yankee fan but watching 40 hours of baseball is too much for me. All the soccer animes I came across aren't that good either. Eyeshield I like alot because one of the latest eposide, eyesheild was able to pound the crap out of someone, which I kept watching over and over again. But this is still pretty unrealistic in a way. Slam dunk is a bball anime but its old setting but its pretty interesting. Initial D is still a good anime and Capeta is good also. I myself like racing animes like Overdrive also...

I haven't seen that many but I am fond of Initial D, after watching the live-action movie with Jay Chou. Still need to see the anime but I'm having trouble finding the first volumes. Hajime no Ippo is a great boxing series that you can actually learn things from which is cool. Other than that I haven't seen all that many. Does IGPX count as a racing anime? If so that was very good too i thought.

Yea I guess it goes for future racing, yea I like that anime also, since they do alot of nice tricks on the track

Hmm i'm not a big fan of Sports Anime, I would much rather watch a crazy girl with red hair and a huge sword have epic flying battles than watching a sporting anime.

Surprising to myself I actually liked Prince of Tennis. It actually got me to want to take up tennis. Initial D is awesome too. But yea the soccor ones seem to suck. I didn't even finish Whistle. It was probably the first and only anime I ever dropped from watching

not that into the sports genre, racing like initial D at the most (mostly thanks to friends more into the racing scene). havent looked into most of the others.

I like racing anime the most outta all and I think Prince of tennis is not as good as people say it is

I mostly avoid sports anime for I don't really see anything fun about them. If I wanted to see sports then I would go out in RL and watch a football game or something. Probably I would be interested in war-game sports (airsoft) like in one episode of School Rumble since many aspects of gaming can be related to it. Initial D is swell too, I like the mechanical terms they use with a mix of course racing that avoids a full out drag race of who is faster.

i don't really like sports anime, the only one i saw was the first season of captain tsubasa, and i didn't quite like it.

 

[Serph]

Am not much of sports fan i use to watch some card games but other then that i dont like much of the sports games

 

[Shinji Ikari]

I'll agree about Prince of Tennis... I liked that anime. The characters were likable, and the originality of a tennis based anime got points. I'd buy it if i came across it.
