Yuri on Ice
Chances are that you may have passed over Yuri on Ice. It’s not big on action, there’s no fighting or super powers, it’s humorous but not overly funny, and it’s pretty much a drama about ice-skating. Yet it happens to be one of the greatest anime out right now because once you watch it, the beautiful choreography and the everyday life of these characters sink their hooks into you, and you’ll soon be waiting eagerly for the next competition, argument, development, or whatever else it has in store for you. The artwork is absolutely beautiful, as is the musical score, which sets it up for an interesting video game experience.
Sports games are nothing new, and Yuri on Ice can add more of a social aspect where you maintain relationships and go about every day life as you juggle training, school, and competitions. It won’t be as in your face as some of the other suggestions on the list, true, but it has all the makings of something truly unique and captivating. Plus, throw in some solid customization, and you can let your inner star run wild on the ice rink.
