Ping Pong The Animation - Kazama is a monster

[@KitesoKumoe]

First time seeing this, I thought Smile was calling Kazama a monster for his skill, but after finding out how skilled Smile actually is, it makes more sense that he's calling Kazama a monster for his willingness to crush Wenge's hopes of going back home. Next level deepness.

This anime is underrated

[@TheLivingVirus115]

I wouldn't say underrated but definetly under-appreciated. Too many people overlook this great show just because of the visuals which are surely unappealing at first but once you got into it they fit very well and it grows on you, and because of the sheer fact that it is a sports anime. That's sad because Ping Pong is the best anime this season, probably also of the year and easily one of the best anime I have seen so far.

[@athenazang1201]

CanIgotosleepnow1 this is the first anime with the most authentic northern Chinese I seen in an anime . Well it is one of the first I even seen to include foreign countries realistically . I was really happy with that. And they capture each frame with a strong sense of angles and perspective. (Which from a person studying art appreciates) ONE OF THE BEST ANIME .. but with a quick end (probably because everyone into anime can only accept a similar stylized art style)

This anime is so underrated... It's something different and special that's probably why ;). Either way it's greatly executed only problem is the time shifts moving the story so fast. They could make some fillers or anything 6 episodes is around 1 year or more... Would be more enjoyable if they extend it somehow. It either starts in half of year which is stupid because nobody knows nobody (maybe peco/smile moved to new school at half of school year? or school year in japan is executed differently) or it starts on the beggining of school year and 6 episodes took us to second christmas ergo 1,5 year.
