''Teekyuu'' (lit. "Tennis") is a SliceOfLife sports comedy focusing on four precocious school students as they deal with the typical lifestyle of the average teenage high-schooler: Struggling through class, making new friends, being part of school activities, playing sports, cooking, [[BreadEggsMilkSquick stealing panties, digging up mummies in Egypt with their withered, senile grandmother, befriending an alien and going to their planet...]]

Added DiffLines:

* ConversationCut: A [[VisualGag Visual]] RunningGag of sorts in a series that goes as fast as ''Teekyu'', typically induced by some form of BreadEggsMilkSquick. Within one second, a character will be having a perfectly normal conversation, relayed by still frames of the locations of what they're talking about, (i.e., a day at school), then, all of a sudden, they or another person will completely derail themselves by injecting with a non-sequitur that will transport the group to Mars or back in time.


Added DiffLines:

* MotorMouth. '''''HOOO''''' boy. While most short-format anime, even GagSeries anime between four and ten minutes long, will go at a slower pace to let its viewers get an understanding of what is being conveyed, ''Teekyu'' [[ExaggeratedTrope takes and runs with this trope into the ground,]] having every character, even those who show up for a scene or two for one episode, speak their lines a mile per millisecond to the point where, if you blink, you've missed an entire episode.
