This shit is crazy bro got hit by a ball to the face and was getting carted off for concussion but he was like I gotta lock in and back flipped off the stretcher, then everyone just let them go on playing as normal . Then their opponents used a tactic where one of them was pretending to be the other one for literally no reason. The “con artist of the court”. This shit is literally so stupid I love it

Eiji and Oishi pair up against Masaharu and Yagyu - and the game has barely started when Eiji is "accidentally" hit in the face. After their match, Inui battles against his old doubles partner Renji, a friend of his who moved away in their youth. Filled with action-packed tennis and flashbacks, this volume is well-balanced and flows smoothly - the character development is much appreciated (though more would be even better).
Though suffering from a concussion, Eiji decides to continue playing - a little unrealistic considering he was carried off the court in a stretcher. Pretty sure the (nonexistent) umpires would have forced him to default, but with all the magical tennis, they must have been pretty distracted. The flashbacks added some depth that offset the action nicely, but I would have loved a little more emotion in some of them (like when Inui realizes that Renji moved - there's nothing, just some disappointment over not finishing their match. Does he miss him? Does he contact him?). Even with the magical tennis, Volume 24 is fun and touches on some much-needed character development.

5/5 (Review is for the series as a whole and does not contain spoilers)
This series follows 7th grader Ryoma Echizen as he strives to become the number one tennis player at his junior high school. Throughout the series, Ryoma faces off against numerous opponents, each one stronger than the last, in an effort to help lead his tennis team to becoming the champions of the National Tennis Tournament.
This series is a cute, action packed story about some junior high school students playing tennis. No prior knowledge of tennis is necessary, as the author takes the time to explain how certain shots are executed and briefly mentions which professional tennis players may use those shots. As the story progresses, some of the tennis shots get a bit more unrealistic and overly dramatic, but it adds to the excitement and builds tension. (So note that if you are an avid tennis player, it might seem a bit out there in terms of realism.) This is a great series for people who enjoy sports manga, and who enjoy competition, as the boys in this manga continue to push each other to new heights in their skills. There are also some good lessons in the story that teach the readers about having fun and continuing to persevere even when things get tough. It also teaches readers that sometimes we lose, and that’s okay too. In terms of age ratings, I would say that this series is a safe one for those in middle school, or perhaps even a bit younger. Overall, I really enjoyed this manga for its low stakes, fun action, and enjoyable cast of characters.

The Prince of Tennis, Vol. 24 continues where the previous tankōbon left off and contains the next nine chapters (202–210) of the on-going manga series.
The tankōbon continues the Kantō Prefectural Tournament Finals, which concludes the second Doubles Match with Shūichirō Ōishi and Shūsuke Fuji – The Golden Duo. However, they seemed to be out-classed by their Rikkaidai Junior High opponents – losing the first four sets. They made a wonderful comeback by displaying a new battle stance and still lose with a respectable 4–6 score. With this win, Rikaidai Junior High leads with two matches.
The first singles match begins with Sadaharu Inui vs. Renji Yanagi – a battle of two data masters. Apparently, Inui and Yanagi knew each other as kids playing tennis, so they know each other well from their tennis play to their idiosyncrasies on the court. Inui takes a two set lead, but it seems that Yanagi has seen through his playing style and could play around it as the tankōbon closes.
This tankōbon is written and illustrated by Takeshi Konomi. Besides the tennis playing, the tankōbon gives a wonderful history on how Shūichirō Ōishi and Shūsuke Fuji met and became the Golden Pair and the relationship between Sadaharu Inui and Renji Yanagi and how they became rivals.
All in all, The Prince of Tennis, Vol. 24 is a wonderful continuation to a series that seems intriguing and I cannot wait to read more.

The Kanto tournament continues, and things are not looking good for Seishun. Rikkai has dominated and looks to win the last three matches in record time.
The "golden pair," Eiji Kikumaru and Suichiro Oishi, are up. When one of the opposing players aims the ball at Eiji's head, he goes down and seems to lose consciousness for a brief time. He's carried off on a stretcher as we see a flashback to when he and Suichiro began playing together as children. Awww, how cute they both are! Eiji comes to, leaps off the stretcher, and gets back into the game. (Where is the team doctor? Surely someone should check him out first. And come to think about it, where is the umpire?) Eiji and Suichiro are playing better than ever, but it's still not enough. They lose their match.
In between matches, Ryoma is at the vending machines when he overhears an intriguing phone call. One of the Rikkai players is talking to their team leader, in the hospital and facing surgery.
The next match is a singles between Seishun's team leader, Sadaharu Inui, and Renji Yanagi. They used to play together as doubles partners years ago and are both data collectors. Now they know each other's games so well they can predict not only each other's plays, but finish each other's sentence. But it looks like Renji is going to force Sadaharu to give up his data game.

Seishun's Golden Pair, Eiji and Shuichiro lose 4-6 against the formidable Rikkai 1st Doubles team of Masaharu and Hiroshi. They are going into the 1st single match with heavy burden and a MUST WIN game for Sadaharu. Lots of flashbacks in this volume that I really enjoyed of a young Kikumaru, Shuichiro and Sadaharu.

I love seeing snippets of the upperclassman as little kids, when they first got into tennis. This volume shows Eiji meeting Shuichiro as young kids and they were both so cute! Those little flashbacks and backstories really add the necessary depth for this series.

Same results but a tad bit different gameplay from the anime version. Now on to Singles 3!

The doubles match was fun but oh my god I hate the two 'data genius' or whatever talking, I hate them quoting percentages at each other it's obnoxious.
