I really, really loved episode 22. That ep has set up the match against Nabae really well. Prior to watching, I didn't think that Maruo stood any chance against him, but with all the work Maruo has done and with him being in top form, and with the story seeming to pause to say that even Nabae isn't perfect, it does feel as if winning is a possibility. That doesn't mean he will win, of course, but it does mean (or at least I assume) that we are going to be shown a really good, fun match. And since Nabae's style feels similar in some ways to Maruo's it's going to be interesting to see how that plays out. Maruo and Natsu really are very cute together, and I like the direction the series has chosen to go with each of them being a strong positive influence on the other's tennis. I certainly hope this won't change and they won't end up dragging down each other's tennis in some way. It does frustrate me that we get to see such a small portion of Natsu's matches. I understand why; we are hardly being shown long matches from anyone unless Maruo is playing against them. But she's such a strong player and a major character, and we didn't ever even get to see a very detailed match between her and Maruo, though I'd rather see Natsu vs Megumi in detail. It gets harder and harder as time goes on to not just go and binge read the manga, but this is a tennis series. Even though the manga, from what I've seen of it, is excellent, having the tennis shown in action is superior. And the voice acting is good too.
