Battle Athletes: A Retro Anime Retrospective | KYOTO VIDEO
🕑 Added 2024-07-24 00:31:59 +0000 UTCSince the Olympics are around the corner, let's take a look back at a sports anime that I can tangentially relate it to. One with lots of wack-a-doo 90s anime hair and steamy yuri subtext.

Yawara! was primarily concerned with "getting to" the Olympics. But the anime didn't have any Olympic episodes until a later TV special (late enough that it took place in Atlanta instead of Seoul). The Manga covered 2 Olympics.

Huh. Well, this certainly gives Hanna-Barbera's "Laff-A-Lympics" a run for its money.
