The official website for The Prince of Tennis anime franchise revealed additional information about the new OVA The Prince of Tennis BEST GAMES!! Tezuka vs. Atobe, including four scene visuals and its OP/ED theme song performers. The latest anime episode based on Takeshi Konomi's long-running sports manga series will get theatrical screening in Japan from August 24, 2018, for a limited time of two weeks. Then its DVD/Blu-ray will be available on October 26.
The OP theme "Eien" (Eternity) is sung by Ryotaro Okiayu (as Kunimitsu Tezuka) and Junichi Suwabe (Keigo Atobe), which is their first duet song. Meanwhile, the ED song "You got game?" is performed by Junko Minagawa (Ryoma Echizen). As the fans know, it is a cover of the first ED theme (October 2001-April 2002) for The Prince of Tennis TV anime, originally sung by Kimeru.
The "BEST GAMES!!" OVA series animates highly popular matches selected from the manga series
that will celebrate its 20th anniversary next year. The first episode features the match between Kunimitsu
(Seishun Academy) and Keigo Atobe (Hyoutei Academy), which was held as the first round at the Kanto
Regional Finals.
