The Opening and the Ending reminds so much to Ping Pong each with a very characteristic beautiful animation.
The fact that The protagonist has got an idol and does the same than him
and in some point of the animation he could become better than his hero.
-both portray their represented sport accurately
-both have well-developed main protagonists AND supporting characters
-Yuri on Ice demonstrates the struggles and setbacks in the journey to success, and Ping Pong goes further delves even further into this theme
-both have fantastic directing (YoI is less consistent with this but when it's good, it's really, /really/ good)
-each have their own unique elements that make them stand out from other sports anime
Do not be fooled by ping pong's outlandish art style. The animation quality is still very good and becomes a sort of aesthetic after warming up to it for a bit. Absolutely worth checking out.
