The manga is 80-85% romance, 15-20% sport, don't expect to see long matches

Well, like the person above said. The manga is about 70% romance and 30% sports but the basketball and badminton matches are really good and exhilarating. So you can look forward to that.

Like the people above me said, this isn't neither about sports nor romance. This is a historical thriller. About 80% historical and 20% thriller, though.

it's not sports anime. it's mostly focused on romance and sports is works like simulator to determine their's goal. but it is peak as a romantic anime.

You could kinda watch it for badminton but not enough for basketball, basketball is more for the character building of chinatsu(the main girl)

It is 65% romance, 35% sports. But also the main protagonist Taiki plays badminton, his crush Chinatsu plays basketball, as far as I can remember we don't get to see her play basketball in a real match in the panels, we are basically informed afterwards about the result. Only sports match we get to see is Taiki plays Badminton (or sometimes his seniors).

If you are only interested in basketball, then this is not your anime. I read the manga weekly and it is not about basketball. Of course hardly ever there is a match, but it's not the main plot. There is more badminton than basketball.

broken telephone thread 😭😭

mostly romance, if theres any focus on a sport it's usually on badminton. otherwise there's basketball when the related characters are the current centre of plot

do not watch this for the basketball. there's not really any technicals/mechanics about that sport specifically in this work. There's more to badminton, but its mostly romance
