Reflections:
It all started one summer morning. I was utterly bored and felt like watching some anime. I went through a list of popular animes and this one came to my view. I frowned at bit at the name. Prince of tennis - oh come on! I thought and looked up the first episode. I prepared myself for a good laugh but instead I was hooked for life. I mean, a show about tennis just can't be that interesting right? Wrong! Prince of Tennis is one of the coolest animes I ever seen - and I've seen a whole lot :P It's full of comedy and bishonen - oh all these cute boys. How can you not love it? I love the plot in the story and everything it stands for: Determinition, friendship, love and teamspirit.

The show is 178 episodes - Then there is the OVA. (26 episodes)
Just now I watched the final episode of Prince of Tennis and what can I say? I can't breath, I'm litterly panting for air! O.o During the video I wanted to scream and cheer - but since the time here is about 4 am that's not an option. Anyway, I cried out of happiness. It was all too good to be true. I wasn't too suprised by the end, but then again it would be a bit of a disappointment if thing didn't turn out the way they did. All in all, I loved it!

Score: 10/10
