Baby Steps 2nd Season

Eiichirou Maruo has decided that tennis is no longer just an activity he loves: he wants to become a professional. His parents are not ready to accept such a risky future, so Eiichirou makes a deal with them. If he cannot win the All-Japan Junior Tennis Tournament, he will abandon the dream.

Coach Aoi sends him to Florida for two weeks of training, where unfamiliar players and methods expose how much remains between his careful analytical style and the professional level. Returning to Japan with new experience, Eiichirou begins turning his meticulous notes, physical training, and match strategy toward the country's strongest juniors, knowing that every round now determines whether his chosen future can continue.
