Message: [QUOTE="fishboneKiller, post: 48478, member: 32028"] i don't watch all that much anime or read a whole lot of manga, but the one manga/anime that i love the absolute most has to be Taiyo Matsumoto's Ping Pong. it has such a striking visual style, grounded yet intense plot, tons of fantastic character arcs, and table tennis! and i must reiterate, i think taiyo matsumoto's artwork is insanely cool. it's somewhat crude and messy, while also managing to ride the line between realism and exaggeration, his work is seriously SO awesome. i also found a lot of the characters to be really relatable, especially Akuma (Manabu Sakuma). i've felt his exact conflict of working your ass off to get good at something and still feeling inadequate, specifically when it comes to fighting games. i always find myself coming back to read it time and time again, and yet i feel like i barely see any love for it on the internet.
