I tried. Is bad. Boring extreeeme sport version of baseball where you fistfight to determine if you make it to base or not, and augmented equipment/weapons are allowed if the mute umpire bot nods. Nonsensical sports with rulesets that solidify to support their premise are nothing new, but most are done better than this. Mediocre animation (characters designs remind me of Danganronpa) that fails to endear the two rookies or their adoptive 'team' who are more functionally gangsters? No technical details or strategy to speak of to make the games interesting, leaving the burden of entertainment resting on the tired "aren't we quirky?" character interactions. Just had to power through two episodes to issue this warning: nothing to see here (though the intro is catchy).
