Burning Kabaddi does the thing it was made to be a sports anime. It really did that well since you could never and I mean never guess who would win. The author seemed like he didnt even care about the main character and there was no plot armor whatsoever but of course it has many flaws. Spoiler free as much as possible Plot 7.5 The plot is very normal nothing unique other than the sport which I had never heard of before. The main character Yoigoishi quits soccer for reasons that are explained in the anime and is then forced to join the Kabaddi school team. Then like any other sports anime we get introduced to the different characters and of course the badass captain. Most of the anime was practice because most of the team was fairly new to the sport and we only got 2 matches with other schools which were really exciting by the way. The way the author didnt care how what happened to the main character really created suspense since you would never know who would win and who wont. https://64.media.tumblr.com/cfc10d21f0a84a50ba62f258450e2fe0/327472136b06ffeb9c/s500x750/453259eac920c70ba3078783ffd6e1c94056f5a5.gifv Animation 6.9/10 Throughout the anime the one thing that really annoyed me was the animation. It was very bad the shading and frames were so low but the studio was capable of utilizing the budget they had at hand to make it watchable. They used some CGI to show how the game worked and it didnt really annoy me too much but if this gets a second season it has to get some better animation because it was just what they did to it. https://media1.tenor.com/images/05bf6c12bb916d8c70b449049f54ad2e/tenor.gif?itemid=21912800 Music 7.9/10 The music was pretty good and the OSTs set the mood for the suspense and hype moments pretty well. The OP was also really nice and they didnt have an ED since they would just tell you what would happen next episode. https://64.media.tumblr.com/b3d178291add818270011e37c21ab9bb/9bce4bc9e79556a8c2/s540x810/248887468c079027dd826b7c370cca62785aa2d6.gif Characters 7.4 The main character had some depth like Yoigoishi and some character development but most of them had joined earlier so they tell you their backstories from before. Some of them even had gotten character development from before Yoigoishi joined and they would tell you there stories. Also the captain was pretty cool. The other team mates that join later on dont have much time for character development and we dont learn too much about them. We do learn a little bit about the people they go against and most of them had ties with the captain and were always trying to surpass him. Also their interactions were really funny. https://64.media.tumblr.com/30701a01f63b9debf4195df68ee24244/05579d0f03ff2a1e8d/s640x960/60742470f95ef6b5bb9653ecf6e321a7b1d35c04.gifv Personal Enjoyment 8.4/10 I personally really enjoyed the anime since it had so many hype moments and was really unpredictable so if it had more episodes and a better budget it wouldve probably been a 9/10. https://64.media.tumblr.com/5fd0c871ceb8b22574832e431d8584c4/9685a9d2feef26ceee/s640x960/fce6da0ea922d18a9765ab8f5e17df29fe34cc04.gifv An overall great sports anime that I would recommend to anyone that doesnt mind animation since Im not into sports anime and really enjoyed this one.
