Japan's latest competitive sport, keijo, is dictated by a simple set of rules: female-only participants must stand on circular platforms floating in a pool—referred to as "lands"—with the goal being to knocking off opponents using only their breasts and butts. Despite this outlandish premise, the sport attracts millions of viewers across the country and boasts a lavish prize pool. Many aspiring athletes take up the challenge in hopes of becoming the next national champion.

gently caress real sports are so lame compared to anime sports.

On the planet Earthdash, its inhabitants gaze on its moon and the technologically advanced lunar city of Mooneyes with awe. Dan JD, a boy living in Rollingtown on Earthdash's surface, gets caught up in Bigfoot Basketball—a fast-paced sport played with giant Bigfoot robots.

gently caress that'd be so cool. Come on Elon, Jeff put your money to good use.

Exploration is ill-advised.
There's a shitload of animes where they just flat out play sports. One of the original big ones, Aim for the Ace, is about tennis. (and Gunbuster is basically Aim for the Ace with giant robots instead of tennis)

There's even one where they play American football, Eyeshield 21. The heroes' team are called the Devil Bats.

What's that you say? More anime sports? Can do. What if we added motors to rollerblades? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp3AKDe48GQ&t=1066s Bammo. gently caress yeah gonna get me into some air trek. I would imagine the lack of protective gear would lead to many deaths and injuries.

I ordered luscious new gemstones from India and made new earrings for my SA mart thread

Remember my earrings and art are much better than my posting

New stuff starts towards end of page 3 of the thread
You mean they don't do a real life one with the boobs and breasts with real people pushing each other off lily pads?

Also if you think it's a guy thing you'll be happy to know that there is a thriving anime industry aimed specifically for women and women only. It's mostly about cute, effeminate boys who hold hands and kiss.

While this does have an OVA so I can count it as anime it doesn't exactly feel like a sports anime you know? (I could be wrong I haven't watched it) Where's my senpais trying to get in the nationals in their last year? Where's my female team manager? Hmmm? I mean Hikaru no Go isn't exactly a team sports anime, but it still has that sports anime spirit.

That's not to say their aren't Mahjong animes out there that qualify.

Anime that has sports is not necessary a sports anime. Skateboarding? Yeah we got that anime. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guStf5P4Js0 I watched an episode yesterday (dubbed of course) and have decided it's pretty good.
