Titles sure to be appreciated by feminists. One need only glance at a certain Taisho review's beginning to learn this. Naturally, if you're a guy, seeing lots of 2D school girls get sweaty at all-girl schools is a plus--there's no denying this. So, you could say the content is sure to please both genders, for differing reasons. Girls want to play baseball. Men don't want women dirtying their sacred sport. The girls continue onwards regardless; building a team and edging towards a showdown with the boys' team. Expect girly manliness, lighthearted fun, and heart-strings to be tugged at as romantic subplots develop in the background; the subplots  read more

In both animes the main characters create a new baseball club.

Sports series which focus on female characters are in the minority, but in regards to these two series, the female cast of characters feature a wide rage of eccentricities among the characters. The person in charge of the teams is also their own level of eccentric, yet works on improving the girls skills so that they can compete and succeed at their chosen sports.

both of these animes have sports in them but princess nine is like the more feminine style. they both have two extraordinary players who are comitted to their playing. one plays tennis while the other baseball.princess nine has a little bit more romance in it. you would have to like sports, school life, action and a little bit of romance to enjoy both these animes.

These are both sports anime that focuses a lot on triumphing over difficult odds. The characters in Princess Nine seem overall a little stronger than in Battle Athletes when it comes to confidence.

All I can really say is their both baseball animes. So, if you like the sport or just sports animes, Oofuri might be what you're looking for!

+ A story about a woman who dreams of becoming a professional player + She must build reputation from ground with alot exercise and pain + Theme "My Fren is My Enemy" can be found in both anime (Himuro Izumi & Miyazawa Elena)

Both are animes with lead characters involved in a sport, specifically the female lead. There are many ups and downs related to love and relationships that do eventually work out. Both are older style animes that deserve more attention in the community.

- Both are sports anime featuring an ensemble main female cast. - Both series feature its female characters practicing a rougher sport that is considered "manly" within their stories. - Both series feature its cast slowly rising through the ranks to gain notorierity in their respective fields. - Both are anime released in the 90s and happen to have relatively similar visual styles. At least to me as I was watching these series, I found that both Metal Fighter Miku and Princess Nine embody the spirit of "girl power"; often found in some 90s media, both series felt like they were reflecting popular emerging ideals during the decade of  read more

Both are about baseball. Showing the building of a team and learning about each new member as well as their growing skills. With the main goal to play/win in a nationals setting. Princess Nine also has a romantic element to it that helps drive the character growth.

Princess Nine is a female version of Inazuma Eleven) see: - at the beginning, a sports team can't play because they don't have enough players - they recruit different people to their team, each with a unique personality - protagonists are similar. Endou Mamoru is a goalkeeper, Hayakawa Ryo is a pitcher, - they have their own special techniques + their relative used to be a sports star but died - both teams become stronger and stronger despite of all the hardships - both have a bit of FANTASTICS! [but i don't want to give spoilers about that] and trust me both are goood)

Ginban Kaleidoscope also features female athletes. Although the focus is on an individual sport (figure skating) instead of a team sport, the main character still relies on the support of the other characters, particularly the ghost who has unintentionally co-inhabited her body without her permission. I think the biggest similarity between GK and Princess Nine is the feeling I got from watching them. Both Ginban and Princess Nine have excellent endings, in my opinion. Please be warned that Ginban Kaleidoscope has some pretty inconsistent art and animation at times and reuses a number of animated sequences. I got the feeling that their  read more

let me recommend some non-sports anime the main common thing about this two animes is female point of view, understanding girl's thoughts and psychology, love stories and cool dramatic final the main charaters are both strong tomboyish girls into some fights that are done for men so if you are a girl and liked Utena for psychology, you'll like Princess Nine, and vice-versa

Also about the same sport, but as opposed to the analytical and one-upmanship of One Outs, Nine has more drama, more romance, more 'heart' one might say. Whereas in the former the characters serve as props to develop a narrative, in the latter they're fleshed out, some given an episode to themselves and their lives, and then the anime has group-based drama/interactions, whereas in the former it's confined mostly to the games themselves (with the only drama being about the business of the professional side of the game).

High school dramas with some of the most overblown theatrics you'll find in any medium. Both shows have predominantly female casts with just enough boys for maximum drama. They also have similar visuals and character designs. If you get a kick out of intense staredowns, bombastic BGM, and unnecessary pastel stillshots, you'll probably love both of these series.
