Chousoku Spinner

Introduction

Despite being talented in various sports, Shunichi Domoto is not passionate about any of them in particular—that is, until he discovers the world of competitive yo-yo. It all begins when Shunichi's friend, Beso Kimura, loses his yo-yo in a duel against the school bully, Benkei Musashimaru. Albeit inexperienced, Shunichi eventually agrees to help Beso retrieve his yo-yo. After practicing for three days, Shunichi challenges and unexpectedly defeats the relatively skilled Benkei. Shunichi's win instills the belief that the yo-yo is easy to master, and that he is ultimately able to easily master anything he puts his mind to. However, after losing to the exceptionally gifted yo-yo player Seito Hojoin, Shinichi finds his ego shattered. As the humiliating loss ignites a spark in Shunichi, he decides to surpass Seito in Japan's national Yo-yo Championship! [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Initially watched this because I was looking for similar shows to Beyblade and... yeah, it sorta fits the bill, I suppose. Enjoyable show with decent characters that's held back by a bad English dub (couldn't find the full set of episodes in Japanese, so settled with it) (and my tolerance to English dubs is actually pretty good, so that's how you know it's pretty bad). Yeah there's a lot of awkward moments in there such as awkward pauses, awkward voice acting, dialogue said twice in a row occasionally, dialogue being changed with flashbacks, etc etc. Also kinda held back by the fact it's an anime from 1997/8, so the animation could've been better. If there was a remake today it'd probably be way more enjoyable honestly, but hey. Still enjoyed it for what it was, fun YoYo anime actually.…

The reason why we started playing Yo-Yo and I broke multiple yoyo but it all worth it. And that time yoyo is effin expensive and why it so expensive tho? I was curious about that one yoyo anime I watched when I was in preschool so I looked it up and found some footage. I honestly wasn't expecting an anime this old to be this good at portraying modern yoyo. I guess some modern yoyo tricks are much older than I thought, or probably much older than me. It's sad to see they don't take this kind of anime and toys anymore but hey at least we got PS5 amirite? But yeah watching this today might be the if not least the funniest and geekiest anime because the yoyo battle arc. Nonetheless the anime is worth watching and bring much nostalgia and memories when you wake up at 8 in the morning and watchi…

The show isn't great it's not horrible, but I was super into it because everything is so over the top, and all I can find is a really bad Indonesian dub and the raws so the ridiculousness of the show combined with bad voice acting makes it such a good watch I highly recommend I don't know what else to write it's objectively mediocre but the ridiculousness of it makes it a real fun ride, so this is still not enough I've said everything there is to say, the story is fine the characters are fine the Dub is horrible and everything is extremely over the top.

This is clearly a children's show and a way to fuel sales for yoyos during the yoyo boom. It shows overdramatic scenes of yoyoing and in general overexaggerations of yoyoing in general. It's similar to Yu-Gi-Oh! in that it was used to sell boost a product and a simple thing was made into something ridiculous. As a yoyoer, I found it very interesting and funny. The storyline has hooks to it that make you want to watch the next episode. Of course, things were very corny and the English dub made it even funnier. I'm sure many Japanese kids went out to buy their own yoyos after watching this, only to leave them in a closet to gather dust and move onto something else. I definitely enjoyed watching this anime!
