CATDOLL: Japanese sports animations are getting more and more exaggerated. Is this about playing ball or cheating?

There are many themes in Japanese animation now, and almost every type of animation can find a corresponding audience group. There are many types of youth campus dramas, hot-blooded adventures, harem dramas with many wives and concubines, and sweet and warm daily yuri dramas... In addition, "sports animation" is also a popular hot spot. For example, "The Prince of Tennis", "Kuroko's Basketball", "Haikyuu!" and other works are very good.

However, viewers who watch a lot of movies may find that these sports animations have one thing in common, that is, they all like to use extremely exaggerated, even exaggerated performance techniques to create a tense and intense atmosphere. So every time I watch this kind of animation, I also enjoy complaining about the unscientific plots in the show. Recently, Japanese Twitter users discussed this topic - the current sports animations are too exaggerated, which makes people wonder if these sports are used to kill people?

As soon as the topic was released, it received comments and approval from many netizens. Some people even replayed the animation and took screenshots, listing the following examples:

The Prince of Tennis

The most amazing and amazing sports animation is probably The Prince of Tennis! There are all kinds of bizarre moves, any of which can penetrate the racket, and even a tornado can appear when hitting the ball...

Kuroko's Basketball

When it comes to exaggerated expressions, Kuroko's Basketball is no slouch. The "Zone" setting allows players to break through the constraints of time and space, greatly improving their jumping and running abilities, with a variety of lightning and fire special effects emerging one after another, and even emitting light waves like Kamehameha.

In addition, other sports animations are also amazing, such as playing baseball and jumping into the sky -

Or playing football can get rid of gravity and turn the universe into a playing field!

...and was instantly possessed by a divine beast. Young man, are you playing football or fighting?

After the complaints, netizens classified and summarized the pictures. Generally speaking, every ball sport has a strong lethality, but it seems that only "Haikyuu!!" is the most normal one... Regarding this, one netizen said, "I like "Haikyuu!!" because it doesn't have too many exaggerated plots."

Of course, there are many sports animation works worth complaining about and watching beyond the ones listed by netizens.

First up is "Tennis is Not Funny", which is about never playing tennis. It is said to be a sports animation, but in fact it is just a daily life animation disguised as tennis. The extremely fast speaking speed is one of the points of complaint.

Of course, the most unforgettable one is the classic "Slam Dunk"! Unlike "Kuroko's Basketball", "Slam Dunk" is more realistic, with full-blooded characters, leaving a deep impression on people. To this day, it is still an indelible favorite of many viewers.

In fact, it is not entirely the fault of the production team that sports animations are becoming more and more exaggerated. Compared with animations of the same theme in the last century, the tastes of the audience at this stage are more picky. If it is not exaggerated to make people want to complain, it is estimated that not many people will watch the work...
