I am not a sports person and I don’t like sports that much, is what I used to believe before I ever touched any sports anime. After watching the likes of Haikyuu and Kuroko no Basuke not only I started enjoying sports but I also look forward to any sports anime. I don’t know the appeal of Rugby but since it’s a Japanese anime it will be interesting. Do let us know what you think.
