Free! (2013)
One of the best Sports anime about swimming
I really didn't expect to like an anime about swimming that much but it's really good. It's about friendship & Team spirit with exciting sports actions like races and stuff. There's also drama and comedy in it. Haru & Rin's rivalry is pretty amazing too. They used to be friends when they were young but something happened that turned them into rivals.
Here's the synopsis for this series.
"Competitive swimmer Haruka Nanase adapts to new conditions in and out of the water when he begins college, trains for new swimming competitions, and tries to repair a broken friendship with his middle school buddy, Ikuya Kirishima."
I highly recommend this series.
Haikyû!! (2014)
Best Sports Anime Ever
I have watched tons of sports anime by now but Haikyuu is still the best, most wholesome sports anime. I re-watch it all the time..
The story begins with Hinata who watched the Tiny Giant play on TV and was inspired by him. Ever since then he had wanted to play Volleyball but there is no Volleyball Team in his school. In middle school, in his last year, he somehow convinces his friends to join the Volleyball team to participate in a tournament where he meets Kageyama aka the King of the Court for the first time. Even though their team loses, Hinata leaves an impression on Kageyama's mind.
When Hinata goes to Highschool, he finds Kageyama has also joined the same school and now they have to work together as a team.
And that's how their amazing journey begins.
