If you can look over the bad animation I'm certain you'll enjoy this. Not to mention the soundtracks are beautiful and will give you goosebumps. Its unfinished and that's not a sly on the anime but just the fact there are just 52 episodes. I hated it simply because I was left wanting more. I loved it because it went against the grain and there are few things that surprise me in an anime ending, you usually know where it's going but this was different. It was emotional and i loved it and I hated it too. The ending was simply poetic to put it best. Coping with family issues, love, setbacks it really has everything. Although it's a sports anime, it's so much more that limiting it to just football is simply wrong. franchise, so thats the most obvious reason for this recommendation. In turn, he awakens a deep passion for tennis within himself. There, he meets Natsu, a beautiful, earnest girl who only has passion for tennis.

The 15-year-old high school boy stops by a tennis school to deal with his lack of exercise. Hungry heart starts out as a story about a school kid who is a delinquent but also has a great football instincts. It's childish in parts but as an overall experience there are few sports anime that can come near this one. I rewatched this anime after I first saw it as a kid.
