Review of Hanebado!

Badminton is such an obscure sport only an anime will tell a story about it. Hanebado tells a story of a high schools girl trying to figure out her relationship with her mom and the sport of badminton. One unique element about this show is that the main protagonist acts like the main antagonist against the supporting characters. The characters in the show are single minded. It seems each of the characters are trying to sabotage each other or just doing badminton individually in an unhealthy way. It was hard to sympathize for the main character or the supporting characters. The sound was pretty good. The soundof the swish was smooth, and the hitting of the shuttlecock was authentic. Plus, the music played well in the atmosphere of the show.

The animation was the best part of the show. The way it goes in detail of how the shuttlecock are hit is breathtaking.
