Review of Hanebado!

I only write short reviews for the people who want a quick rundown of what to expect. (this shouldn't spoil anything for you) The art and sound were incredible at least... Now the story was enjoyable and I would argue the main points were believable for example Ayano's mom leaves her at a young age (guessing between 6-10) and she obviously resents her for it and thinks she left because of her talent. When she starts playing in high school she plays only to win to prove to her mom she doesnt need her (which i think is MORE the reasonable) which i enjoyed because it wasconsistent and it separated her from the crowd of protagonists in sports animes. But of course they needed to have a happy ending so in the last episode she realized how fun badminton is and makes up with her mom when she had shown up three days before the final, and Ayano had refused to talk to her due to the anger she had. That ending felt so forced and unnecessary, she can realize its fun to play badminton without having to do a complete 180 on liking her mother and becoming the stereotypical protagonist?

To be honest i only wrote this because of how mad i was after watching the 13th episode. I liked the first 8 when she was a ruthless player and only thought about winning but after that it started talking about morals and went to shit. well maybe my rant will make you wanna watch it... though i really don't care.
