Sports Anime!!

I only have a handful of proper husbandos from sports shows, but I'm a huge, HUGE fan of the genre. Haikyuu!!, Yuri On Ice!!!, Ashita no Joe, and RE-MAIN are my four all-time favorites, but I also like The Prince of Tennis, Eyeshield 21, Free!, Hajime no Ippo, Ping Pong the Animation...

I'll be here all day if I talk about the shows themselves.


Rei Ryuugazai - Free!

Okay look at him??? This is the ideal glasses man. He's shredded from doing both track and swimming. Any man with glasses is an automatic 10/10 and any man with blue hair is an automatic 10/10, which makes Rei a solid 20. I've loved this man from the second I laid eyes on him.

LITERALLY. FLAWLESS. No notes. I own so much merch of this fucker.

oh my god.

Genuinely I feel like Free! dropped the ball majorly in later seasons. But I will always love Rei-chan.

Tsukishima Kei - Haikyuu!!

First and foremost, if you haven't watched this, what the fuck are you even doing?

Hi!!!! This is Tsukishima Kei!!! He's the best character in the gay volleyball show!!!

Here he is having the best dialog!!

Here he is washing his glasses!!!

Here he is again!!!!

God he's such an asshole!! i love him!!!!

Joe Yabuki - Ashita no Joe

Could not resist the Ippo gif <3

Ashita no Joe/Tomorrow's Joe is a classic 1960s boxing anime, very tragic, very gritty, and very much a must-watch. Boxing animes always go so hard

This art is literally so gorgeous?

I can fix him.
