I am sure all you sports lovers out there must have watched this animated series Prince of Tennis at one point of time or other. As for me, I was thrilled to watch every episode of the series. My love for Tennis combined with my being a cartoon freak, automatically turned be into a devout fan of the series. I really felt let down when I came to know that the series was going off the air and I bet you must have felt likewise. But I just came across a tit bit that might cheer you up a little. Staring April next year our sporting hero is going to feature regularly in the magazine Jump Square. In the December issue of the magazine, which was released on fourth of November, it has been officially confirmed that Takeshi Konomi will be developing a new series of The Prince of Tennis especially for the magazine.

I guess the magazine did not want to lose a wonderful chance to use the immense popularity of the show for its benefit. The cartoon show revolves around the life of Ryoma Echizen a teenage boy who plays against seasoned players with ease. His calm and confidence together with his skill to play an un-matched “twist serve” puts him ahead of all the other players. In addition he practices really hard to be able to meet the expectations of the higher members of his team. It is yet to be seen how the magazine manages to capture the excitement of the show in its pages. I know it is not the same as watching the actual show, but hey remember something is always better than nothing.

Well, it’d be pretty hard to pick up an episode and to entitle it as ‘the best’…. especially in case, when series ran for 8 very successful series. Yeah, that’s case with ‘Prince of Tennis’. As being a huge tennis fan, I watched the show right from its beginning. As of now, it’s not an air but I’m still watching my favorite episodes. Yesterday, I downloaded ‘A Day on Survival Mountain’, a special episode aired during the eighth season. And, also the ‘Two of Us’, aired on March 23, 07.

Last season was the best season throughout the whole runtime. Hey! It doesn’t mean that previous seasons were not good, they’re….. But I most liked the series finale season. In the beginning of the season, we see that Seigaku is on his way to win the National Championship. This is the time when only the best schools are left in the competition and Seigaku must beat all his rivals to be the best one. And, he does so… simply! He’s the best after all.
‘The Fourth Counter’ is also a good episode. Here we see that Kawamura and Fuji have a hard time as they’re playing in doubles. Episode deals with a twist- whether or not they’ll win the match. Oh… yeah ‘The Longest Summer’ is also fantastic. ‘The Man Called Killer’ is an episode which I think has, the most terrifying title, of all. Here, we see that Higa Middle School’s coach is about to quit and their captain stops him. Tezuka has his own troubles… will he be able to beat the guy named ‘Killer’?

In ‘The Prince of Volleyball’, Seigaku goes to the beach to get relaxed after his success in the first round of Nationals. Unexpectedly, they meet Rokkaku, and this meeting results in a Volleyball match where the loser team would have to drink the Inui juice.
Rest of the episodes was also good and we bidden farewell to ‘Prince of Tennis’ on March 23, 07. Still looking for some more episodes…….
Do you like Pete Sampras, Steffy Graf, Leander Paes and Mahesh Bupathi duo? These are all my favorites and why not these are Wimbledon champions. Well whoever likes tennis loves these players and loves ‘The Prince of Tennis‘ as well. Most of the people recognize it as the video game under the title of prince of tennis. But this was a wonderful animated series with a distinct concept of sports and which came to its eighth and final season in the past few months. All the video games related to the game of Tennis are associated with this series, as this is a Japanese series so it was obvious of its being different than other animated series.

I am very fond of such off beat stuff and that’s why today I am here to download its episodes. You know what’s the specialty of this series? If you are crazy about tennis then you will definitely gain some new tactics and sharp moves from here. To mark a win every player needs to learn the cunning shots as well as excellent defensive techniques. All that you will get into this series, what I got from here is energy, enthusiasm and the team spirit. The main characters of the series Ryoma, Tezuka and Shuichiro Oishi are handling the whole team very well and the sportsmanship and encouragement they generate, I think is missing among real life players. Besides them the other three who are my favorites from the anime team, are, Eiji Kikumaru, who has the exceptional vision for moving things. I like Sadaharu Inui who is called the Data player of team and the ‘Viper’ who keeps on hissing in the court, his actual name is Kaido. He is just adorable when he gets irritated on hearing his nick name Viper.

You know I’ll definitely do some wonder in the court today, you just dare to have a match with me. Now I’ve learnt the data playing lolz. You know one odd funny thing of this series? The tennis players have long hair like rock stars…..watch up.
