Bakuten!!

Bakuten is an anime on Rhythmic Gymnastics. The protagonist Futaba and Misato are more or less similar to Kageyama and Hinata from Haikyuu. Futaba becomes mesmerized upon watching a high school Gymnastics performance and decides to pursue his dream and perform together with the same seniors who inspired him. Same like how Hinata was inspired by Karasuno's ace and joined Karasuno in hopes of achieving his dream. The character Misato is an ace just like Kageyama who is socially inept at first but becomes our favorite character as the show progresses. Bakuten was made to inspire high school students in Japan to join Rhythmic Gymnastics and the performance shown in the anime is inspired by real life performance with cool animation. I would recommend this 💯 percent. read more 

When I was watching this gave me very serious haikyuu vibes. The first years rivalry/friendship, the new first year main protagonist, and more. If you watch one, you should watch the other to compare and love. 

Another great sports anime! Sadly it only has one season and no manga, but it still manages to capture you in a similar way to Haikyuu, definitely would recommend it if you want to see more guys doing sport.  

They both have a great cast of lovable characters. The animation is awesome, especially when they are playing their respective sports. They will both make you laugh at the antics of the different team members. They both have the same positive vibe but meaningful vibe with the plot.  

Both anime are about different school sports clubs with interesting rules (Waterpolo in Re-Main and Rhythmic Gymnastics in Bakuten!!). Both have that friendship between male characters that heals your heart. The main characters were in a period of rehab or rest. Both also have a lot of characters with unique personalities who are searching for that thing they really have a passion for and a lot of self-improvement and teamwork. They only have 12 episodes, but Bakuten!!! also has a movie. 

- School club setting - Team sports, revolving around teamwork - The sports they play are relatively unknown - The MC's team play in an underdog team but are rivals with a much stronger team - Characters with unique personalities - The MC is "new" to the sport (technically not in Re-main but close enough) - Amazing development of bonds between boys, teammates - Outgoing MC 

Both have a main character that is scared of being surpassed by others (or not catching up to them). Both have a shy side character thats unexpectedly really good. Side characters: andry simpleton (s), pretty glasses dude thats calm and little punk. Sports, very competition oriented. Has a one-off episode where they just chill. REALLY GOOD OP/ED.  

Two sports anime about a group of guys situated in a dorm that welcome in a new member. Driven by a cast of relatable and likeable characters whose personalities develop over the span of the show and packed with many similar archetypes and tropes, both Bakuten and Run with the Wind are a lovely, laid-back watching experience that will leave you satisfied while also craving more. 

- School club setting - Beautiful scenery when characters get immersed in their respective sports - Team sports, revolving around teamwork - The MC play in an underdog team - Characters with unique personalities and designs - Amazing development of bonds between boys, teammates  

Both have a lot of charming and colorful characters (almost literally lol) In both series the characters wanna be the best at their respective field, there's humor in the show but there are emotional moments too. The characters and groups grows and is very enjoyable
