Soccer. I actually liked Overdrive too though :p Capeta is a personal fav though. It's great. If there will be a new Initial D season, I'd definitely watch that. It encourages me to drive faster.

I have to agree that it's made me interested in baseball, though there's not much I can do with that interest here in England where the sport's ignored. It's too bad that no-one's scanlating the manga which is way ahead of the anime.. Likewise, I recently read Hajime no Ippo a month or two ago and that made me really interested in boxing.. and a few years back after reading Hikaru no Go, I started playing online Go for a couple weeks. Do you know any other sports anime/manga that are really addicting? >IKnight Umisho is far more of a harem anime than sports. I've seen about half of it and it's mostly about comedy and ecchi situations than the sport of swimming - which seems more like an excuse to have a load of changing scenes and have the girls in swimsuits a lot.

Umisho is far more of a harem anime than sports. I’ve seen about half of it and it’s mostly about comedy and ecchi situations than the sport of swimming - which seems more like an excuse to have a load of changing scenes and have the girls in swimsuits a lot.
