A video about one of my favorite shows – Ping Pong the Animation, talking about how the themes in the show relate to the sport and the player.
Special thanks to the peeps at Discord for keeping me sane while I worked on this video. You guys are awesome!
The artwork used at the end of the video is by my friend Enpitsu.
