The two most popular sport anime/manga in the past five years,

at least the hakyu creator understood the sport he wrote about

Free is more popular than both them

You mean Free sells more BD/DVDs and is arguably more popular with female otaku. When you take wide appeal in consideration, then you can't beat a series that has the advantage of a shounen jump fanbase.

Agree, completely opinions. It would be difficult to discuss because not only would that involve personalities and history, but we try to value cuteness and that would bring up the art styles which are unique to each series.

I would say that Haikyuu does have the upperhand on better match pacing. KnB is just as much about the sport, it's just not as well written as HQ, more drama heavy, too, and that would take away some time which may make it seem less I suppose.

For real though, I do like Yowapeda more than either of these. It hits the right balance between being Absolutely Crazy like Basuke and demonstrating actual knowledge about the sport like Haikyuu.

In addition, races have a very natural tension to them that makes the anime adaptation's turtle-y pacing actually pay off.

Hakogaku is full of best boys and best girls.

I know the anime pace drove a lot of people crazy, but I enjoyed it. I've said it many times now, but it was realistic, like you said, natural, and the tension sustained kept me on edge and constantly hyped for the next one.

I recently started Baby Steps. It's my new found motivational series. Damn nice surprise of a series since I went in without reading the manga.

Agreed on Yowapedal. It has the right balance of realistic sports with just enough anime insanity to make it fun. Plus the boys are much better as far as personalities, designs and fleshed out background stories go. Everyone who I've recommended Yowapedal to has enjoyed it, even normal fags.

I get that KnB and Haikyuu are popular with homos and fujos because the boys are cute and all, but how the hell is Yowamushi Pedal popular with horrifying characters like this?

And the others aren't much better either, the least ugly one is probably MC, but he is just a boring black haired megane, that looks like Shinpachi.
