>This manga is pretty similar to medalist
This is pretty much the perfect comparison. Both manga with amazing art, that captures complex motion of their sport about as well as you could in a paper format, but a good animated adaptation would really elevate it to the next level.
Medalist anime nailed it, the anime blew up, and it got a second season greenlit immediately.
This show dropped the ball as hard as it possibly could have, and I can't see anyone wanting a second season with this garbage CG. The best I can hope for is that they can convey the journey, and the appeal of the characters and their personal growth well enough that people will want to pick up the source material. What a sad end for one of my favorite manga.
