Episode synopsis
The underfunded ping pong club was forced to join the baseball team's training camp last year, but ended up being ball boys. This year, Mr. Shibazaki tries to make amends by bringing the boys to an inn in the mountains for their training camp. The inn is owned by Mr. Shibazaki's friend, Mr. Uehara, who happens to be a monkey. However, the inn seems to have more facilities for baths than ping pong.
About The Ping Pong Club
Inaho Jr. High's Boys Ping Pong Club has only 6 members, the club minimum. Takeda is your average nice guy. Kinoshita is good looking and popular with girls. Unfortunately, the rest are branded as losers. Tanabe is too foreign, while Tanaka is petite and perverse. Maena and Izawa are truly deviant, and their crazed antics have earned the team some powerful enemies. In spite of their differences, the team needs to work together to retain their practice room and club status.
