Description

Makoto Tsukimoto and Yutaka Hoshino, two childhood friends, have been playing ping pong since their time in elementary school. Tsukimoto, the glasses-wearing, emotionless kinda guy, who’s called “the Robot”, only plays to kill some time. Hoshino, the passionate and charismatic “hero”, who’s admired by Tsukimoto, plays because he loves ping pong and hates nothing more than to lose.

How will the cold and gruesome world of sports welcome these two very different players? And what about their fated meeting as rivals?
Die beiden Kindheitsfreunde Makoto Tsukimoto und Yutaka Hoshino spielen schon seit ihrer Grundschulzeit Tischtennis. Tsukimoto, der brillentragende anscheinend emotionslose Typ, der von anderen nur als »Roboter« bezeichnet wird, spielt, um Zeit zu schinden. Hoshino, der leidenschaftliche charismatische »Held«, der von Tsukimoto als Idol gesehen wird, spielt, weil er Ping Pong liebt und es hasst, zu verlieren.

Wie wird die kalte, grausame Welt des Sports diese zwei so unterschiedlichen Spieler begrüßen? Und was wird auf dem unvermeidlichen Treffen der beiden als Rivalen passieren?
Testo della bandella:
Uno shonen sportivo e atipico che narra la storia di peko e del suo amico d’infanzia smile! Una delle opere più mature del maestro Taiyo Matsumoto in cui dimostra tutta la sua sensibilità e capacità artistica.
