Ping Pong

Ping Pong (Pinpon, 2002) is a Japanese drama you can watch online on iFILM. Director Fumihiko Sori adapted Taiyō Matsumoto's manga into a table tennis coming-of-age story about two childhood friends who arrive at a national high school tournament from completely different directions.

Peco is boisterous and certain of his own greatness. Smile is the better player — and the one who cannot find a reason to care about winning. Yosuke Kubozuka and Arata Iura play off each other with an ease that turns every match into something more than sport. The film is not really about ping pong. Stream Ping Pong (2002) online on iFILM.
