I love Prince of Tennis and have been enjoying it. However, this episode and the previous were the worst of the series. Not only is there actual physical assault between characters, but none of what anyone says about Ryoma is actually shown in the arc. We are TOLD he has gotten prideful, but never shown anything different than usual. We are TOLD that he's unmotivated, but nothing in the previous episodes truly show that.

I understand this arc is not in the manga, and it shows with the storytelling.

And besides the lack of "show, don't tell," it is incredibly disappointing to suddenly have Tezuka hit Ryoma and never apologize. It is a complete departure from the character we've grown to love and appreciate, and it's disturbing how everyone acts like it is okay.
