"You’d think a show about a card game where victory is determined by correctly locating the second half of a Japanese poem would be … less than interesting. But this show is fantastic! Gripping narrative, genuine (low) stakes and great characterisation. If you like romcoms (and sports anime? Kind of?) this is for you. "
