Hello all!

I feel that sports anime are a very intriguing category of anime. Some people like 'em, some don’t. How do you feel about them? What’s your favorite and/or least favorite? Any aspects/tropes of this category of anime that you like and find unique compared to other anime, or that you don’t like? Any recommendations? Is there a hockey based one?

I watched a couple episodes of Blue Lock - my brother was on episode 16 so I started there. Not bad, seemed to be sort of accurate to the sport unlike Prince of Tennis which is bending time and space to play the sport. Still, I may enjoy Prince of Tennis more at this point.
