I find it very, very interesting that most reviews for this anime fall between the ratings of 8 and 10. I don't want to badmouth anyone, so I'll just leave this as is and move on.

Story - 2
A girl learns how to fly. Yeah...
Okay really though there's nothing much to it other than that. Simple, straightforward, and boring.
"Don't include story summaries, users already have the synopsis written for them." WELL WHAT ELSE DO I SAY FOR THE STORY IF ONE LINE ACTUALLY SUMMARIZES EVERTHING?

Art - 4
Nothing stands out. Generic character design. Background looks like god damned 50% render scale at 1080p, or 75% if you ... have a 720p monitor. Might as well give this a rating of 2...

Sound - 2
Okay maybe I'm a bit spoiled by anime like sao, shigatsu wa kimi no uso, haikyuu, and uh I'm too lazy to look through my watched anime list. The music in this anime is really bland. It doesn't excite me, even though this is a sports anime. It feels like it's just there so you don't simply listen to people talk. Props for having decent sfx though.


Character - 1
Kurashina Asuka: A kuudere. If you don't know what that means, it means airhead. Well yeah she does think about flying most of the time. Anyways, she learns how to fly! WOW. SO AMAZING. An airhead as a protagonist probably wasn't that much of a great idea.

Hinata Masaya: Okay, here's like 40% of the reason why I *hate* this anime. Masaya was a professional player. He had a pretty interesting background that could actually bring about character development. Instead, the creators decide to dump all of this in the trashcan. What a great side character,
I mean protagonist that doesn't do **** during the entire 12 episodes right?

Other "main" characters: wat. i tot they wer syde karakters too.


Enjoyment - 1
ugh... waste of time

Overall - 2
Art doesn't contribute to how good an anime is imo. If it's not killing my eyes, then it's fine. That being said, I should be rating this anime a 1 and not a 2, but then again the girls are hella cute and they mesmerized me. Gotta give this anime a 2 for le girls :<

[ This last section is pretty long. Read it if you want to know why I despise this anime. ]

Where should I start? I guess I'll start by looking through the tagged genres for this anime. Can someone explain to me where the drama is. I mean, if you're talking about melodrama then yeah... There is no drama in this anime. All there is is a bunch of kids making a huge deal out of nothing. Take Misaki for example. Asuka suddenly becomes good at flying, and Misaki starts to feel inferior. Instead of trying to get better, she cries like a little kid and quits the club. bruh....
A sports anime where the sport probably took 14 seconds to come up with... There was so much potential in anti-gravity boots, and what we get is a sport where people fly to corners of a square and d-dd--do-dog fighting. I'm gonna file a lawsuit for animal abuse. Realistically, the faster person will always win. It doesn't matter if the other player takes a shortcut. You can just fly right past them. If they chase, it's not that hard to turn your body around to protect your back given how easy it was for the characters to do "something kick turns". Dog fights will never happen.

I want to talk about the characters a bit more. Some may argue that there was character development because a few characters become a bit more mature. Some may say that because there is, ever so slightly, character development, the characters are not one-dimensional and boring. I disagree. For one, the characters never really changed that much to make any impact on how they are as people. Their sole existence is to be with Asuka while she learns how to fly. The only character with the potential to be interesting is Masaya, but again he was discarded like garbage. Anyone could've taken Masaya's place as a """coach""" and there would be no difference. So much for a main character....
