Sports series and their lessons
SLAM DUNK: Ball is life.
HAPPY!: Ball is life and sex workers are great babysitters.
PRINCE OF TENNIS: Ball is life but a big responsibility because you might accidentally cause a mass extinction event.
KUROKO NO BASUKE: Ball is life and fistbumps are dangerously powerful.
FREE!: Water in large quantities destroys lives and the battle between a well-done coming of age story and capitalism and fanservice will give a director no choice but to seek solace in emotional devastation and violent action scenes.
HAIKYUU: Ball is life and volleyball is made up.
REAL: Ball is life and legs are optional.
ROBOTXLASERBEAM: Ball is life and it's important to teach this lesson to robots before their uprising so we have common ground.
YURI ON ICE: Getting shitfaced to meet your idols will only benefit your personal and professional life.
ALL OUT!: Ball is life and if you embrace this you can overcome your physical insecurities.
SK8 THE INFINITY: You don't have to be the best at something if you're enjoying it with someone you love and if there had been skateboarding in England in the 1880s JoJo's Bizarre Adventure would have been much shorter.
OOKIKU FURIKABUTTE/BIG WINDUP: Ball is life and your pitcher's health is paramount because if he is injured you have to take him to the outfield and shoot him like a horse with a broken leg.
TEPPU: There is no point in sports if you don't draw blood and excessive Jean Claude van Damme movies will permanently alter your sexuality.
EYESHIELD 21: Ball is life and Satan rules.
MEGALOBOX: No matter how dystopian the future, people will always want to gamble on the outcome of two men punching each other.
HIKARU NO GO: Ghosts are real.

I really am a sucker for dual male lead media where they appear as complete opposites only to end up being eachothers foils and somehow also ending up being completely depended on eachother despite of (because of) their differences

Match 14 of Hikaru no Go was fucking incredible. What a fantastic episode showcasing why shows about rival sports can be so vastly compelling.
Tumblr media
Like, not just as a piece of writing but as a piece of TV animation, supreme episode all around in terms of balancing out small character movements to convey a LOT of emotion with not a ton of budget. The simple line boil to convey how hard the kids are trying not to cry is so smart and effective as an artistic choice. No one is happy with how the matches went, everyone is disappointed, and the episode is so fucking good at conveying the very real feelings that come with trying your absolute hardest to get what you want and simply not receiving it. It was absolutely needed at this point in the story, because none of the characters are in a spot to get that kind of catharsis yet.
The show did a supremely good job of balancing the three simultaneous matches, showcasing why each of Haze Middle School's competitors were there, and what lead to the downfall of each game. You understand how each of the characters failed at their game, and the show spent several episodes setting up how that would happen. It doesn't come out of left field, it's something that you as the viewer kind of always knew would happen, and it's strangely beautiful in that way. Everyone is feeling a lot of emotions and the show is okay just...letting us sit in them. This was a big moment for a bunch of only-now-pubescent teenagers, of course they're going to feel everything extremely strongly.
I dunno. I didn't think I'd feel this strongly about an anime about playing Go, but the series has compelled me in ways I hadn't seen before with how solid the characters are. It rocks.

He's too busy thinking about Hikaru that he just let his mom pick his clothes instead (and it's awful!)
