Unexpectedly good. It is indeed the hidden gem of the season. Didn't have high expectations as there was not a lot of hype around it. First episode might make it seem like your average sports anime, but it gets a lot better in the last few episodes. The comedy might not appeal to everyone and quite of lot of them don't come across well the same after translation. These 12 episodes only adapt first few arcs of the manga, which acts more like an introduction of characters and their backstory, so makes sense if some think it's not very exciting. P.S. Episode 11 is superb!!!!
