Just a cage of bones, there's nothing inside.
Baby Steps is pretty cool, I absolutely love that it's just "really studious guy spergs out about every minute detail about tennis and Gets Good" combined with it being a sort of perpetual training arc that I so love from my burning spirit genre.

For those loving sports manga/anime I would recommend One Outs. It's Seinen so a little bit less about burning shounen spirit etc. but it's really good. Both the anime and manga are finished. The Anime covers about half of the manga.

This show is so good I can't believe it isn't something that more manga authors don't try to do. "Akagi but with baseball" is 100% correct and it's a blast to watch, I also love how the main character is designed and the way he stands out against all of the other actual baseball players.

This cliffhanger broke me and I too have joined the "now reading the Baby Steps manga" bandwagon.

Is it really possible for somebody to play tennis the way Iwasa does, with having such precise control as to land the ball anywhere with any kind of swing?

Can't wait for Kuroko's Basketball to take the same spin as Prince of Tennis did. Literal Chaos Dunks. :getin:

Somebody please gif the Haiykuu scene where their tears explode from their eyes, I've never been so happy with the delivery of a joke from this show as I was then.

Baby Steps: A show not about Tennis, but about the chronicles of Kageyama, Ultimate Wingman.
