Still not digging the opening theme. I mean, I think it could be better... I'm hoping that when they switch themes they'll get something better.
Empty courts... and then an Echizen. How many times are you going to bounce that ball, Ryoma? Cue first flashback. Angry tennis and determined eyes.
OH FUCK. Really? I was hoping to be saved from Horio. I mean, I know he's in the manga, but not very much.
Food spread. Everyone looks shocked except for Tezuka.
Hi Atobe. You're so pretty. Ahn~? And you called Kaidoh and eyesore. lololol
Tezuka, you'd rather run than eat. No wonder you're a fucking stick.
Momo, you do NOT need to be excited about your match. Do you not remember who you're going against? Seriously. You are an idiot. Your mind is clouded by all that food.
I'm agreeing with Kikumaru here. What the FUCK is up with that racket? TWO STRINGS?
Oni, I think I love you. You're basically a redheaded high school Sanada. That's kind of hot.
High schoolers, please stop taking over the explanatory shit. That's Inui's job. Or some random first year. Like Horio.
Momo, you're so screwed.
Thanks Captain Obvious. I mean, Oishi. Like I can't see what's going on.
Oni, you look like you should be a vampire. Kaidoh, what is with you. Why were you smiling. Kamio, did you dye your hair darker? It looks darker.
Tezuka, again, not looking shocked, just pissed off. Fuck, that's really fucking hot.
Rikkai's just standing there like, yeah, he so went to our school before.
MOMO STOP. JUST STOP. YOU ARE AN IDIOT.
Of COURSE Ryoma's not answering you dumbass. HIS BFF IS GETTING POUNDED.
DA DA DA DAN!!!! OMG, he is so fucking cute. .....Urayama, not so much. I can't see how he is a member of Rikkai. Unless he has an Akaya-like personality.
Unpopular opinion #1: I don't like the Rikkai first year.
Momo, please just stop. Please. It's making me sad. EVEN KAMIO IS WORRIED ABOUT YOU, BIKE-THIEF.
/shakes head
I just can't. I know Momo's skull is thick, but FUCK this is just pathetic.
And now the first years are inside. Lovely.
TROIKA. TROIKA. TROIKA!!!!!! Sanada... Yukimura just kind of proved your little theory wrong. Then again, you were being oddly optimistic. Even Atobe can see the real deal. Well, of course he can. Duh.
Of course, no one can watch the end of the match. But look, Momo, you impressed Oni. That's saying something. Cause he seems like a total hard ass.
Random Akutsu.
Jack ass high schoolers appear. Ryoma goes to give them a piece of his mind. And nothing comes of it.
The new Sakaki. With his Aizen hair. And his weird metaphors. I don't know how I feel about him.
Was Momo bandaged by Shiraishi? Oh, Kaidoh, you're worried. And you still need to get a fucking room.
Tezuka, ever the voice of... oh, that's not reason. That's just you.
Rikkai... I'm sorry, but I don't think your "harsh training" is going to help you with this.
Inui... that's just creepy.
"Mental coach?" Saitoh, I think you're acting that way. OMG DID YOU SEE THE BITCH GLARE YUKIMURA GAVE THAT GUY? DUDE I would NOT want to be you.
Now everyone is pairing up. Shipping wars. Kaidoh, your little crush on Tezuka is so fucking adorable.
Mizuki, you are such a creeper. Ew.
I swear Kintarou has fucking Koshimae radar. It's so ridiculous.
OH FUCK. MY HEART IS BREAKING BECAUSE I KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. And here they all assumed it would be doubles vs doubles. Though, I would have really loved to see Sanada & Yukimura against someone. That has got to be one hell of a duo.
Ryoma, your little smirk is totally going to fuck you and Kintarou over, FYI.
Yeah, still not enjoying the ending. I will remain hopeful for something new. I just don't like the animation. But the song still doesn't do anything for me.
Preview: Stop messing up on purpose Kikumaru. Yagyuu, you look so hot. You too Oshitari.
Unpopular opinion #2: Gakuto, I don't like you, go away.
Unpopular opinion #3: I'm not digging you Niou. I don't know if it's your hair or if it's fandom STAN-ning for you, but you're rubbing me the wrong way.
