This is The Prince of Tennis Live Action that I first watched. And this is also the first Live Action made. Because the format is movie, so many scenes must be cut or modified to meet the duration. I can understand that, but there are also some modified roles, which in my opinion are quite essential. An example is Ryuzaki-sensei's role. Here it is told that he was young, so Sakuno's role was abolished, replaced by the younger sister of Higaki.

Overall, the story is close to the story in the manga and quite entertaining, but I would be very happy if this title was made in the form of a drama series. Speaking of acting, the two roles that I like in this movie are Tezuka and Ryoma. Both of them (Hongo Kanata and Shirota Yu) can play Ryoma and Tezuka well, so their role characters are really like the characters in the manga.
