English Dub Review: The Prince of Tennis II U-17 World Cup “For Whom Do You Grow Strong”
Overview
The first match of the World Cup Semifinals continues between Oni and Q･P. One shines with a mysterious light that resembles the Pinnacle of Perfection and becomes seemingly invincible.
Our Take
This episode keeps the action high with the closing of a fast-paced singles match, blending the familiar supernatural twists and intense energy that Prince of Tennis fans know and love. True to its style, the story balances its outrageous tennis powers with some surprisingly quiet and heartfelt moments that stand out amid the competition, adding a unique layer to the otherwise rapid-fire match scenes.
While much of the proceedings do lean on some reused animation, the pacing is faster and sets the stage for the upcoming doubles match, which promises new dynamics and characters who may shake things up…
Overall, the episode captures Prince of Tennis’s chaotic charm with its action-packed matches, humorous moments, and self-aware nods to the show’s comical extremes. As the tournament heads deeper, the familiar blend of over-the-top abilities and respectable sportsmanship continues to set up a promising path for the challenges ahead.
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
