I started reading the LN for this anime.

Watched all the episodes too.

Going have to say as of right now I consider this the best anime of the season.

I predicted it would be.
But I might say Hoshiai no Sora is instead. Idk.

This last episode was kind of cool.

Normally I’m a fan of dubbed anime. But after watching 2 dubbed episodes I had to watch the rest.

Truthfully I don’t particularly believe either is superior to the other. However, sometimes one is but it isn’t always subbed or dubbed.

In this case both are good.

So you ask why dubbed then, simple listening is easier when you’re exhausted than reading. Yep that’s it.

No offense but Hoshiai no Sora is just not my cup of tea. I know this because it’s about sports which I find incredibly boring.

However, this is simply my view on sports.

Playing them isn’t boring, watching is.

Hoshiai no Sora is not a standard sport anime. It's also a slice of life.
