Thread: Moves in real life?

What else? Anything, as long as u believe!

Higuma otoshi- counter smashes.
Tsubame gaeshi- ??
Hakugei- Counter's volley players.
Kagerou tsutsumi- Counters spin balls
Hecatoncheires Mo noban- Counters almost every ball
Hoshi Hanabi- Counter cord Balls

Does it make sense?? :S:S

Tsubame gaeshi- counters topspin

Does what make sense?

actually.. nothing XD, now i know that the counters really counters ;D

I don't know about you guys, but I miss the earlier chapters were the moves were less ridiculous. I'm only reading this manga because I want to complete it, but the series is really crap. I don't mind some exaggerations but there has to be a limit.

i havent actually watched the real life movies.
only the anime xD

well if you watch real tennis for the first time you'll be bored and you'll hardly recognize impressive shots

Hehe, me too at this point. Thats the problem with such unoriginal and formulaic sports mangas as POT (not a general statement about sport mangas, but for POT it is true).

actuall i think it did tennis justice

as its been said its hard to recognize the impressive shots when your un familiar with tennis...it just seems like a whole lot of grunting back n forth..lol

but after reading this i find myself with a greater appreciation for the sport
all of the crazy shots have basis in real moves...tho they had to evolve
the same technique's over and over again to give the story variety

the thing that got on my nerves the most was not how they were hitting or the muga

it was how incredibly high they were jumping....like wtf "hes ten feet over the net!!!"
nobody ever said that lol..."hes flying..and spinning in the air like superman!!"

^It was true to tennis (though stretching it mildly) for maybe the first half of the series, but the minute muga was introduced the entire thing turned true to nothing and became crap.
