You know.. I literally fell in love with the PoT anime when I first watched it back in 2016. Like, after finishing all the episodes, including the NPoT, OVA's, Specials, and Movies, I always watched it again and again and again. Well... Except for the NPoT OVA. I've honestly only watched it 2 times, the latest was just recently. The reason? It's just that the first time I finished the NPoT series, it made me feel-- empty.

I've never read the manga before, so I started reading it after finishing all episodes again. And I can say, it was splendid and wonderful, really! Especially knowing that there are parts in the manga they haven't included in the series, or changed (like Kirihara and Fuji's match), and how they added fillers in the series that is not part of the manga (like Tezuka and Fuji's match before nationals). It was very awesome! I don't care if there are parts missing, changed, or added. It's still the Prince of Tennis that I love.

Anyways, after reading NPoT, albeit still ongoing, it made me feel even more empty. After seeing Echizen's eyes like this ( http://iweb6.mangapicgallery.com/r/newpiclink/new_prince_of_tennis/141/f0d8a809d2ea9de9782a10fae548370b.jpeg ), and seeing that Seigaku is no longer the focus of the story, is just--- I have mixed feelings, actually. Even Fuji and Oishi don't have as much screen time like the other players. I miss them. I miss Fuji and Tezuka side by side each other, I miss Eiji and Oishi playing together, I miss Kawamura's 'Buurrnniinnggg!!', I miss Inui's coaching and torment of juices to them, I miss Kaidoh and Momo bickering always, and I miss Echizen being with his senpais.

Although I don't hate the NPoT, nor dislike it, it's just that it feels lonely and empty. I just hope that we could get to see Seigaku TC all together again playing and bonding ToT

PS. I always cried or at least tear up, whenever Fuji, Oishi, Tezuka, and Echizen plays. Maybe because the other 2 is no longer playing with them.
PPS. If ever this gets reanimated or continued, I just hope that their seiyuu stays the same. I just looovveee how they carry their characters, especially Fuji's. Yuki Kaida <3 <3
