Wonder how this'll work. I mean, will we have Ryoma & the gang as teachers? Or, new tournaments?

…I couldn't see Ryouma as anything other than a professional tennis player. Ever.
I really don't see how this could work, considering a number of factors.
This will be awsome, one of the best sport manga and anime.
I don't care how it work but the author seem to say that the next part will be even greater so it must be good.
He will be the new captain lol

Unless Kaido goes out like Tezuka doubtful.
good lord, the only reason this manga would be successful would be due to all those fangirls who don't want to let go of their favorite bishis despite the story and pretty much everything regarding tennis has pretty much gone down the drain.
i mean come on, the prospect of making more musicals is far more powerful in japan than a good story and plot.
JUMP must truly be in dire straights if it has to resurrect PoT.

Really now.
What I found ironic with the series is that the lower-level tennis matches were more intresting than the National matches.
i'm afraid of this sequel. the ending of the manga was pretty lame.
So something as bland as Prince of Tennis gets a sequel while a potentially interesting series like Chagecha get removed.
Then again this is the same magazine that keeps To-Love-Ru around so I'm not too surprised.
My first and most appropriate response to this was: head-desk
I mean geez, he said all of PoT was PROLOGUE!? The tennis matches are already broken beyond all redemption, how are they supposed to power-up even further?
The Tennis matches themselves weren't broken it was the players and as it stood Ryoma was the the only offender.
slam dunk is by far the best sports manga IMO.
Definitely need to change that.

We're not talking about "what's the best sports manga", we're discussing the absurdity of a direct PoT sequel series.
I'm looking forward to it. Espicially if there's a big enough timeskip that Tezuka, Sanada, and Atobe can become unquestionablely stronger and Ryôma has to climb back up all over again.
That or finally allow Nanjirô to play, if even against an old rival of his.
@Yuugi's:

I don't see how much stronger they could get unless they all unlock the final door.
i think this sequel is a bad idea. how can konomi not realize that his manga was going downhill and that he exploited all his creative ideas in the very beginning of it?
Idk this may be good or may fail, the fact that the manga went all SUPER tennis with doors, and inhuman tactics was freaking Fail
If it wasn't for that there wouldn't be much of point for reading.

If that were the case it would've never ran for 9 years with over 370 chapters.
@Sandai:
If that were the case it would've never ran for 9 years with over 370 chapters.
Or it could just be the fact that it was extremely popular among all it's fangirls, i mean konomi had valentine's day polls where each character would be given chocolate based on votes. Fangirls pretty much rule the world, just ask Sasuke.
Not to mention the musicals, never count out musicals. Apparently there's a chinese drama happening as well.
The series imo hit it's peak during the 1st Seigaku vs. Rikkai encounter when chibisuke defeated the emperor in the most retarded way i've ever seen.

It's not like he spammed the Cyclone Smash.
COOL Drive was pretty epic, espicially when it looked like he was done for. I don't think it was implied Sanada was going all out. Look at when he started using the Self Actuality State.
First chapter of New Prince of Tennis is out (on onemanga). Looks like it's also going to be a world tournament akin to Eyeshield. Also, it's a monthly series guys.
Oh Shit !!!
(20 Characters)
I didn't like the opening. It just thrust Ryoma back into Japan. So, that 'One Year Later' stuff hasn't happened yet.
Kind of rushed into meeting everyone again. I hope this 50 pages stays… PoT doesn't contain much in a single (weekly) chapter.
Well if it's monthly then it be 35-40ish.
I agree it was a bit rushed, but I got to say I forgotten how much I enjoy some of the characters.
Didn't Ryoma just went to America? And he now suddenly back? wtf ..
Too bad for the high-schoolers though, i think all of Japan Junior will be filled with monstrous junior high, lol.
I'm calling shenanigans on the whole ball dropping thing, that's the stupidest technicality to ousting out players.
Didn't Ryoma just went to America? And he now suddenly back? wtf ..
We don't know how long he's been in America for hell we don't even know how long it's been since the Finals.
I expect there will be lotsa middle schoolers in the tournament too, yeah, but I do hope a few high schoolers make it in, just to spice things up a bit.
just found a bit of news while browsing:
! It will be called prince of tennis Z
Anyway, this sucks. I think I am not going to read it unless I see some good reviews around here
excuse me for not wanting to waste my time and for trusting people that like the same manga as I do and mostly even more then 2 but certainly One Piece. . .
excuse me for not wanting to waste my time
It's only one chapter (now) and like 40 something pages.
Also if your actually waiting to hear someone's opinions as to read this or not that's pretty much like going in the Naruto discussion thread and "asking is this series worth reading?"
it's new prince of tennis. first out is 58 pages with color. i really wonder what the point of all of this though. more super powers? would actually be better if they continued slam dunk

That be a wonderful idea if Konomi actually wrote Slam Dunk.
Never liked the original (I never even made it past a chapter) so I'm sure not gonna like the sequel. I'll bet it's for fangirl sales, why else keep a manga about tennis playing guys who look like women? (Tennis sucks, I know because one of my "jobs" was cleaning a tennis court.)
Then again this is the same magazine that keeps To-Love-Ru around so I'm not too surprised.
To-Love-Ru is there primarily for fanservice reasons, nothing more. If stories can't attract readers some barely clothed chicks can do it…

Don't know why that reminded me of this

Well, Tezuka and the other third years are still .. in their third year apparently. :ninja:

So are Hiruma,Musashi,&Kurita:ninja:.
as long as more atobe and yukimura are shown, i'm happy.
