"The Prince of Tennis" follows are young boy named Ryoma Echizen who has just started to attend Seigaku Junior High. Seigaku has a very prestigous Tennis Club filled with some of the greatest tallent around, which is why Ryoma fits in just fine. At first, some of the upper-classmen don't take kindly to Ryoma's thingyy attitude, but it soon becomes aparent that this freshman has some amazing talent. He even participates in the Seigaku inner-tournament which determines who will get to become one of Seigaku's elite 'regulars'. And so, with help from their new freshman, Seigaku starts their long march to the Nationals! Anyone heard/read it before?

hm....I'm not sure. ^^" I myself never got interested in Slam Dunk. Know nothing bout it. Prince of tennis, I'd pretty much recommend to anyone that likes tennis. ^_^" It's awesome!...at least I think so, even though the animation's a little rough around the edges. I've only read the manga for it...and I'm not even completely done yet

lolz i'm not sure. actually, they talk a lot about tennis terms...like western grip, slice, twist...but, lol, I have no idea what those are. the only reason why I got so interested in it was because I saw it a few days after I had joined the tennis team at my school. But, I guess I can sorta relate to some of them...

i've read a bit of the first chapter and i reckon it was pretty interesting. though it kinda ended at a suspenseful(kinda) moment so i might get it sometime... anyway, that guy, whats his name? Ryoma? anyway, he seemed kinda like a bad person or something like that near the beginning since he was kinda mean to that girl that told him the wrong way out of the station to the tournament. i didnt even get what a western and an eastern grip was from all that.

Yeah, I guess he did seem a little mean, but, it's just his pride. ^_^" He's just too good. lol. Anyways, I still don't know about the eastern and western grip either. lol. I've read it over a few times too. lol

Doesn't it go over 100 episodes? What do they kinda do for that many eps? Is it repetitive, and they keep going in comps, or something?

Well, I'm not sure, but I think there are over 100 eps, like you've said....Well, the first few eps pretty much just introduce the characters...obviously...and the rest I think just keep showing how good or bad Ryoma is. pretty much though competitions or friendly matches.

My sister is enraptured with Prince of Tennis. It is nice, but I guess that it is directed to the more sporty people.
