*sigh* I guess I'm looking for anime with sports

Postby Ghet » Fri May 29, 2009 2:33 am

(Read: Not sports anime)

need something from a non-sports-themed anime involving sports (haruhi/flcl baseball scene = good, Prince of tennis/Eyeshield 21 = bad)
odd or obscure sports are good - water polo? bring it, chess? awwwryte
basketball or football or something like that are also fine.

Beck: Ep 1 has bowling. I think it's ep 4 that has baseball. There's also swimming throughout

Samurai Champloo: Ep 23 has baseball

FMP: Fumoffu: Ep 12 has rugby

Happy Lesson: Ep 5 has skiiing. I think its ep 12 that has synchronized swimming.

Ranma 1/2 has odd sports-turned-martial-arts throughout.

Tenjho Tenge had some bowling (mostly fighting, but still...).

Shugo Chara has an episode with soccer (football) and a couple of episodes with snowboarding.

Kimagure Orange Road has episodes with tennis, pro wrestling, judo, surfing, rowing, and skiing. Possibly some swimming. There's also a 3-legged race for a school activity.

Maison Ikkoku also features characters playing tennis. There's also a baseball episode, one where they go skating, and a swimming episode all which featured the two main romantic rivals competing over the female love interest.

More tennis in Ai Yori Aoshi: Enishi episode 3. Also features swimming (mainly ep.2).

Peach Girl features some swimming too. And I think I remember some basketball.

There's swimming in Golden Boy. It gets kinda naughty, though. And bike racing. Sorta.

Speaking of cycling, there's Over Drive. Although this might be sports anime.

Surfing is also shown in 5 Centimeters Per Second.

Ah My Goddess! (TV) features some rally racing (s1,ep.10), go-karting (s1,ep.17), mini-bike racing (s2,ep.11) and some BMX racing (s2,ep.14). The other incarnations (movie and ova) also feature some of this.

Episode 12 of The Adventures of Mini Goddess features baseball. And episode 33 has fishing.

You mentioned FLCL and baseball but could airsoft (ep.5) be counted as a sport?

Episode 9 of Strawberry Marshmallow features baseball plus soccer. (Or was it soccer plus baseball?)

Basketball is featured in School Rumble (s2,eps.8 & 9). I also saw arm wrestling and a little bit of chess and cards (s2,ep.10). There's some pro wrestling in there somewhere too (s1,ep.20).

Gokusen features boxing.

Revolutionary Girl Utena features fencing.

Kaleido Star: New Wings features an episode (s2,ep.6 (ep.32)) where the characters compete in figure skating. Hell, the whole show is pratically sports anime anyways (acrobatics).

Then there's the figure skating anime Ginban Kaleidoscope.

There's some gymnastics in DNA^2.

Some of the side characters are members of the volleyball club in Minami-ke, featured in episode 5.

The Lucky Star OVA also has volleyball.

Manabi Straight features dodgeball in episode 3.

A dodgeball match also appears in episode 10 of Negima!.

Does Mahjongg count as an odd or obscure sport? Well, there's Akagi and Saki.

In that vein I guess I should mention Hikaru no Go, then.

Admittedly, Suzuka is billed as a sports anime, but I think the track and field stuff is purely a MacGuffin.

And that's not mentioning the numerous school athletic festivals featured in various anime like the aforementioned Lucky Star and shows like Azumanga Daioh.

Kuroshitsuji is all about the chess. And a board game in the first episode. Also Pool near the beginning of ep 2.
Shakugan no Shana ep 9 has a water sport. Where the girls sit on the guys shoulders and like try to get ribbons. It's kinda funny.
Ouran High School Host Club ep 4 has the twins basketball scene.
Higurashi has baseball. And in the second season I think ep 2 there's a funny creepy game of tag. Idk if that count's as a sport but they're in gym clothes and stuff.

In case you need more, I don't know if these have been mentioned yet:

Death Note, ep. 10 -- Tennis
Fruits Basket, ep. 10 -- Foot race
" " ep. 12 -- Ping Pong
" " ep. 13 -- Badminton (I think that's the one)
Wallflower a.k.a. Perfect Girl Evolution, ep. 9 -- Ping Pong
" ep. 16 -- Various sports at the school sports festival

I know it's not anime, but if you want to branch out a bit, King of the Hill has had Baseball, Football, Golf, Hunting, Soccer, Wrestling, and Competitive Eating.

Azumanga Daioh and Lucky Star. I'm pretty sure Fruits Basket had a badminton scene in one episode, too.

Everyone forgets the soccer/tennis in Death Note? For shame.
