Nobody talks about this one. A flash anime about tennis that gets the comedy timing right, treating the sport like a setup for character bits instead of a showcase for animation. You're here for ten minutes of characters being ridiculous around a net, not inspirational monologues. The OVA format means it knows exactly what it wants to do and gets out before overstaying. If you've ever watched a sports show and wished it would stop taking itself so seriously for five seconds, this is that five seconds stretched into five episodes.

Ryouma Echizen and his teammates on the Seishun Academy boys' tennis team get into all sorts of mischief once they step off the court. They spook one another in the locker room with an eerie kokeshi doll, and they get their costumes wrong when Halloween comes around. Players from rival schools drop in for cameos that add to the fun. These short comedy flash episodes were packaged alongside The New Prince of Tennis OVA, and they give a lighthearted look at the characters away from the sport.
