it seems like a perfect eyecandy for yaoi/shonen-ai fangirls/fanboys (just my opinion,forgive me if i offended some serious fans) but when i was bored i read some yaoi and this has the same lead ups as them but stops halfway

so i'd say this is half cooked yaoi

ok, prince of tennis first manga spoilers below. im not going to spoiler tag them because if you are here, its a given that you read pot first.

so here we are. have a gifted person, and watch him grow up or evolve, getting more and more imposable as that happens, i don't mind this is want makes a sport manga tolerable to me is some amount of out there ness. than came this pinnacle of hard work and all that crap, and was it just me or want ryoma suppose to be in the same league as his dad by the end of the first manga.

now i dont give the manga shit for the pinnacle shit, mainly because in alot of sports, especially ones with fighting 1 on 1, you can tend to see whats coming next with a certain level of skill. so all i saw those at were just a weird way to say they have that much skill.

than you have the stupid crap that they all go through...

basically the first manga ended, and i couldn't see it continuing with anything more than a oneshot of 10 years down the line.

now this mangaka, was suppose to take a lot of time off to make a new manga, not pot, when the first one finished. apparently he failed so much that he had to fall back on pot about a year later.

i personaly have no hope of this ever becoming anything worth reading.
BECAUSE
#1 - main character has to either take a few steps back in skill
or
#2 - characters have to be retardedly powerful, to the point of why arent they pros?
or
#3 - the main character has a retarded requirement to pull out potential that never gets met.

because this manga already ended at the right point i see no reason for more, and because of the authors own incompetence and having to fall back on something he already ended like this, i cant say this will ever be good.

I just finished a re-read of the original series, and was excited to have a follow-up. Now I find that instead of moving the middle schoolers into high school and pro circuits, we get some idiotic mind-f*ck tennis camp vs primitive back-to-nature training with an obvious neo-luddite point of view? How ridiculous and how not worth the time. Oh, and to top it, tennis battles that used to take volumes now take 2-3 10 page chapters. The only reason this doesn't get a 1 score is because I'm happy to see the characters again, and because the art is better than ever. Too bad the story doesn't come close.

I don't know where this series is going. It is not even a good continuum of the first series, it has liked moved onto another dimension with this new series. Transitioning from the earthly tennis to the galactic tennis. Even in the original series, it had initiated that transition near the end, to many's discontent. And now it plans to continue on that with greater intensity.

The first series was acceptable despite the superpower things going on, since its foot was still on the ground, this one, there is not even an expectation of that happening...

It would have been a better idea to start a new series on a completely different idea instead of trying to mess up with what is already on brittle grounds...

what blows my mind is the fact that ryoma and team are merely middleschoolers as it seems. Roughly every1 except ryoma looks like hes in his mid 20's. I wonder how the hell the authors gonna show growth and ageing ? maybe they'll get beards and alzheimer in highschool ? Anyway, the story so far could be depicted in 1 chaper seeing as the chapers are 10 pages long and nothing rly happens. Oh and 'Supernatural' in Genre is long overdue seeing as this never was real tennis to begin with.

Literally had an manga induced orgasm from the fact that I, the fan of ryoma echizen's epicness, would see his lovely tennis skills gracing the papers once again.

Then came reality. The chapters are kind of short. I can only see this new tennis series being dragged out way too long, losing many potential fans along the way. However, I refuse to quit this series as it's still in the baby stage. I give this a 9 because I know that the mangaka will not let me down..

Good, I'm glad to have a sequel to PoT. The characterizations and such remain just as good and it seems to be pretty much the same as the old. I like the opening.

My only complaint is that the chapters are too short for a monthly magazine. Used to the 25ish pages most things in SQ have. Still nothing wrong with it I suppose.

It's nice to see the old characters. I also agree with the other comments. hmm. what else is there to say? Well so far all my comments have been said so until the next one...

This book has a very good start
I agree with lots of comments.
They are all right.
Though I think you should make a book, and maybe you should add more people not making it hard to understanding. don't make it all over the place. That's what I hate about most manga when it's like.

It is a continuation of PoT, nothing more and nothing less. If you're wondering what to expect from this, expect the same old characters, art style, and goal except in a new setting. There are a couple of new characters and though they were given names, they didn't seem to be all that important at the time. Overall, it's there.
