Just me being unreasonable, petty, and pedantic.
But it's about the third time this month I've overheard someone mentioned something along the lines of
"Blue Box is the best sports anime I've seen in a long time".
And for some reason, that made me angry.
I liked the manga, it's a cute story. The anime looks stunning, no doubt about it.
But I refuse to call it sports anime/manga.
It's a romance story with sports as the plot device.
I wouldn't even call it sports romance in the same level as Adachi Mitsuru's
such a petty thing, but it bothers me...
