Ping Pong The Animation

Ping Pong the Animation is a brutal sport that puts players to the test in ways that most other sports cannot. Makoto Tsukimoto is among many youngsters that aspire to be a top ping pong player. Alongside his boyhood chum Yutaka Hoshino, the pair will battle it out with the globe's finest players. Their objective is to demonstrate their affection and enthusiasm for the realm of ping pong. Their abilities will be put to the test, but together they could demonstrate to the world that ping pong is much more than a boring game of table tennis.

Ping Pong the Animation receives some of the oddest praise we've ever heard for an anime series. Due to its very distinctive design aesthetic, Ping Pong is sometimes ignored as a real sports anime, yet this is a mistake. Ping Pong the Animation is indeed an action-packed 11-episode animated series that makes us wish we were better at ping pong!
