Do you guys think characters should show more besides their love for the sportIn general , when you have a story that is focus on the road to success anything that branches off that road is a distraction . A lot of sports anime are riding on adreleine rush to the finish line . Do most people want to see every piece of drama that led them there ? There are basically two thoughts on this in the media not limited in anime . Watch Olympic commentators for example . There are some people mostly those who aren ' t familiar with the sport or the player who find the entire backstory of the player interesting . Then there are the fans who want punch said commentator and say Get on with it . Pick a side . They will always be a war between them .
