It sounds interesting and an good alternative to obtaining fansubs illegaly. And despite what most people think, a lot of people enjoy dubs, even if the hardcore fans find the voices terrible.

Sounds like an interesting way to get people to watch anime. I forgot to mention, but it's in the source article- it gets launched June 17.

When did they start doing Prince of Tennis?


And also, how the hell does an anime about ******* Tennis get to be over 100 episodes long?!

Add a flaming tennis ball here and there, gravity defying manuvers everywhere, take away a little bit of logic, add a little bit of shounen cliches, viola!

Seriously though, I thought it was fun. Stopped before the end because I wanted the whole thing to be animated, but guess that didn't happen. The OVA's might be a good enough consolidance,but don't have the time for now.

And Prince of Tennis has been rumored to be licensed for a while, this confirmed it though. So it's not coming for a little longer.

I prefer Kenshin with Tennis instead of swordplay.

Samurai Tennis, not Ninja Tennis, thanks~
