Ping Pong the Animation

Inaho Jr. High's Boys Ping Pong Club has only 6 members, the club minimum. Takeda is your average nice guy. Kinoshita is good looking and popular with girls. Unfortunately, the rest are branded as losers. Tanabe is too foreign, while Tanaka is petite and perverse. Maena and Izawa are truly deviant, and their crazed antics have earned the team some powerful enemies. In spite of their differences, the team needs to work together to retain their practice room and club status.

Ever since their champion was defeated, the world of girls' junior high ping pong has been in turmoil. Koyori is the new smirking transfer student at her junior high and she's ready to shake up girls' ping pong.

Taniguchi Takao was a good baseball player when he was in junior high. But he broke his finger and couldn’t play baseball anymore. When he became a high school student, he always stood alone after school looking sadly at the baseball ground. Looking at him, Aiki, a captain of a soccer club invited him to his team. He hadn’t played soccer, but he was a good athlete and diligent, soon, he become so a good player as to be chosen a regular member. However, Aiki noticed that Takao couldn’t give up baseball and he made Takao join the baseball club. At first, he couldn’t adapt himself to the surroundings. Their easy-going attitude was far from what he used to do. However, being influenced by Takao’s earnestness, gradually, their attitude began to change. (from AniDB)
