Prince of Tennis notes

...but first, a song! *sings* Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Seishirou, happy birthday to you! *stops singing* Sorry, that had to be done ^^. Now, on to PoT! I've now seen through episode 20, I thought I'd put down my opinions on the charecters and such for future reference and amusement.

Over all, I think I'm liking this series. The animation is nice for a shounen series, and seeing guys who aren't pencil-thin it kind of refreshing. It's also pretty light-hearted, which comes a a pleasent change after too my X ^^; As for the charecters....

Nanjirou is a crazy, leacherous old man. But he is rather amusing. Ryoma was really getting on my nervous at first, but I've started to warm up to him. Momoshirou is definately one of my favorites...anyone who tells a bunch of freshman to call him Momo-chan, and practically rips of his shirt in front of Nanjirou wins my respect. Eiji and Oishi are pretty much big question marks in my book, although I definately see hinds of something between them, and I find it cute how Eiji refers to Ryoma as the team's chibi-chan, if I caught that right. Tezuka reminds me of Tatsumi, with out the whole evil grin thing. I think I like him. Inui, on the other hand, does do Tatsumi's evil grin. That guy is crazy, but in an endearing way...always going on about his data ^^ Taka is amusing in his sort of quasi-split personality. Sans racket, he's kind of quiet and sheepish. Give him a racket however, and he becomes vicious. And calls Fuji 'Fujiko-chan', which I find incrediably adorable. Now Fuji, he's probably my favorite. When his eyes are closed he's all cheerful and cute, but when he opens his eyes, he means bussiness. And he's pretty ^^

Anyway, off to hunt down PoT sites and more episodes. And before I go...another song..in SPANISH!!! *begins singing again* Cumpleaños feliz, desayamos a ti...*fade out*
