''Attack No. 1'' (アタックNo.1, Atakku Nanbā Wan) is an early [[ShoujoDemographic shoujo]] manga and anime series, with the anime being notable as the first televised [[GamingAndSportsAnimeAndManga sports anime]] aimed at a female audience. The manga was created by Chikako Urano and ran in ''Margaret'' from 1968 to 1970, and the anime first aired in late 1969 and ran through 1971. First meant to capitalize on the success of the 1964 Olympic volleyball team, it ended up bringing more mature fans to the shoujo demographic, compared to ''Anime/{{Sally the Witch}}'''s success in that time.
