Review of Scorching Ping Pong Girls

Table tennis is fun. But I think these girls are having a little too much fun... Story: A new student joins the table tennis club and teaches everybody the joy of table tennis. Later on, they play the table tennis club of another school. This is sports anime 101. But the way it is presented here is cute and entertaining, which makes it work well. The games aren't very thrilling, but they are interesting and short. 7/10 Art: I hope you like moe, because this anime is very cutesy and colorful. Some of the animations during the matches are in a realistic style, which looks awesome. Other times, they havethis crude dynamic style that Nichijou loved to use. No animation milestone, but as good as it needs to be.
7/10

Sound:
The opening was pretty cute, fittingly so. The ending wasn't bad and the soundtrack during the matches was great. Voice acting was solid all throughout the cast. All the stereotypes were there and they were all well done.
8/10

Characters:
Like I said, we have all the stereotypes of cute girl comedies here: the stoic, the tsundere, the genki girl, the naive main character, etc. I personally have no problem with such a cast, as long as the characters are well done. And they are. All the girls are likeable and the viewer can easily pick out his favourite and root for her.
8/10

Enjoyment:
Shakunetsu is a good anime, not great, but good. It's easy to watch and enjoy, which is more than you can say about most anime every season. If other sports anime feel too lengthy, maybe you should give this one a chance. Just be careful you don't play the doki doki-drinking game.
8/10

Overall:
7.6/10
