BLUE BOX SPOILER FREE REVIEW https://nami.news/wordpress/wpcontent/uploads/2024/10/AonoHakoMangaCoverVolume1e1729635989293.jpg I was looking for some anime to watch and found myself watching this DONT REGRET IT. Yes as you just read I started this anime blind I didnt really know what it was about I only knew it combined some romance with sports but never would I have thought it would do it so well. I think this is my first anime where sport is blended into romance this well and I think I might have discovered a new favorite genre. So what is it about? And why is it this good? The premise its quite simple. Inomata Taiki is a firstyear badminton player who has a crush on a secondyear from the girlss basketball team Chinatsu. Chinatsus family goes abroad while she wants to remain in Japan to play basketball with her team and because of that Taiki without knowing is struck by luck. Chinatsu has to move in with a family so she can continue playing. What Taiki doesnt know is that shell be moving in with his family. https://i.ur.com/EtsKCp9.png Thats basically how they start getting to know each other and well... from there you know yourself. I said SPOILER FREE. I think this anime might be one of my favorite romances Ive watched lately because the plot characters everything blends so well and it creates a bingeworthy anime. From what I have written so far you might have thought this anime is just about a love story between Taiki and Chinatsu right? Well you were mistaken. https://i.ur.com/fL9hwC6.png There is also a third character because of course there is a love triangle. Her name is Hina Chono and she is a member of the Rhythmic Gymnastics Team. She is also Taikis long friend who has feelings for him. She is an interesting and complex character but Ill leave it at that you have to watch the anime. Did I convince you to watch it? I hope so. Anyway I bingewatched this anime when I first started it and then had to wait for an episode every week which I was cool with surprisingly because I was processing the story a lot better. https://pbs.tw.com/media/GZj25shboAAizig.jpg:large I wouldve liked it if there had been a few more sports scenes.. I really liked it when I saw Taiki playing badminton. Never thought it could be so interesting to watch. There are not a lot of side characters but if there is one its good. There is also another couple that people thought it was better than the original main characters but I wont go as far to say that. Long story short if you are looking for some good romance some sports you dont have to like badminton and some great side characters. You have to WATCH this anime This small part has SPOILERS
