I wonder if any of the mangas will have Olympic arcs (or a fictional equivalent) leading up to the games.

Most sports manga have the Gold as the MC motivation, or end with the MC or the Rival representing their country on the Olympics.

Holy crap, I'm dying here.

So If we were to assign an anime to an olympic sport how would it shake out?

Boxing - Hajime no Ippo
Soccer - Captain Tsubasa
Basketball - Slam Dunk
Judo - Yawara

Are the ones that come to mind for me.

eyeshield 21 da true best sports manga

Never cared for the anime and the last ten volumes worth of the manga fluctuated in quality, but that was my jam back in high school. Waiting for the Viz volumes was torture.

Having the President of your country pop out of a pipe dressed as Mario cements Tokyo as a pretty damn top-tier Olympic host.

At least, I've started saving for the trip.

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
I'm pretty sure hologram Miku will be lighting the torch somehow.
