Three clues. One anime. Badminton, basketball and one very distracting crush. Take a guess before scrolling.

The answer: Blue Box

Taiki plays badminton. Chinatsu is the basketball star he keeps running into at morning practice. Blue Box mixes the effort of getting better at a sport with the awkwardness of liking someone you see every day. Start with Season 1 if you are new to their story.
