Story:

     A young girls moves to Tokyo to live with her aunt, and on the way gets involved in a new sport that is gripping the nation. This journey chronicles her journey through this new world that she has discovered. I personally enjoyed the story, especially the ending.

Animation:

     Animation is nice. To me the style fits what this anime is supposed to be.

Sound:

     The music is nice, I enjoy both the opening and closing themes. The Japanese voice acting is done very well. I have not heard the dub, so i can't say anything about that.

Characters:

     Overall the characters are good. Since this is not a particularly long anime, there are many that just show up for an episode or two, but there is a solid core throughout the show. There is not any of them that I particularly dislike.

Overall:

     To me this is an enjoyable anime and pretty cute.
