Hoshino is a ping pong player from childhood alongside his friend smile who compete in the tournament after Kong from China defeats Peco in match they get challenged. Peco is an expert ping pong player while his friend smile is just playing it for fun. Things begin to change massively as the show progresses.
It is a really good anime with a good plot, this is especially good for people who are getting into anime or are into sport anime. It is not too violent or intense for anime starters if that is what you are looking for.
I admit the animation might not be the best but the show itself is good with excellent music and voice acting, while I think the Japanese version in terms of voice acting were a bit more polished as they used child voice actors to do all of the boy. While Funimation (if you want to call it that anymore before they went downhill with the Vic, drama) just used women to put on boy voices. The dub was good and the women who did the boy were not bad, mind you some of them sounded girly in pitch but they did fine.
It kinda feels like Bruce Lee as some of the designs look like him and Filthy Frank created their own anime but with Ping Pong.
I admit myself I did not know much about ping pong before this anime.
Overall pretty good
