Shiko Funjatta! (2022)
Awesome series

Man, I really enjoyed this series. A reboot of a 1992 movie of the same name (and including some of the same actors), it's about the trials and tribulations of a down-and-out university sumo club. It's about sumo, but it's also about friendship, perseverance, finding your place in the world, coming of age, and sportsmanship. It's laugh out loud funny, and it's really moving. You'll fall in love with the main characters, and probably their opponents, too (they're no cartoon villains). You'll definitely fall in love with Japanese culture. Perfectly cast and brilliantly acted. Hoping to see a second season.
