This was such a strange fit IMO. Shocked they didn't go with Eyeshield 21 on the service instead
Weird thing is, Eyeshield 21 was on Jetstream as well. A shame, because out of all the sports, (American) football would be the most "action" filled, so it probably would have felt more in-place compared to tennis. The manga was rather decent, coming from someone who doesn't care one bit for sports (thanks, high school best friends, for letting me borrow them!).

If we're talking sports anime, Haikyuu may be a future possibility.
Is that the volleyball one that the main character was a support character in J-Stars Victory Vs.?

The problem was E21 the anime was flaming garbage though

On-topic: the only right sports anime for Toonami is Hajime no Ippo. Except no substitutes.
 
"Danarchy's stand is World of Heart, capable of cutting with thought! Rank: B"

That's pretty badass.
 
"Zonic's stand is Aerial Kiss, capable of combining with electricity! Rank: ??"

So...what, I'm Red Hot Chili Pepper from Part 4?

Actually, I can be close to Joseph or Lisa Lisa with the whole scarf thing, considering I won a Strider scarf today for a leaderboard contest.
 
What's a 'stand'?

Levyne's stand is Queen Cup, capable of killing jelly! Rank: B-

A stand is basically the physical manifestation of psychic powers that most of the protagonists and antagonists from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure use in combat (though they have non-combat abilities as well). Each indivual's Stand is highly specialized and unique. Think of them as Zanpackto from Bleach or Personas from the Persona series (though Jojo's predates all those shows by decades and is kind of the progenitor of the concept). The ghostly figure that appears in the above gif is an example of a Stand.
 
"TheChits's stand is Original's Light, capable of manipulating memories! Rank: C-"
I'll take it

Edit: Decided to use my actual name. "Ryan's stand is Wheel of Free, capable of creating matter! Rank: C"
Get at me
 
KBall's stand is Hermit Soul, capable of shooting dimensions! Rank: EX

Most of the stands from my other nicknames suck but this one? I'll take it :)
 
UltraGunner's stand is Knight of Violet, capable of combining with potential! Rank: F+

Actually the concept of a stand originated from the Buddhist concept of the Tulpa

I meant within the context of the anime/manga world (to my knowledge at least) but I should have been more specific.
 
Htown's stand is Seasonal Shame, capable of detonating attraction! Rank: E
