The first musical premièred in the Golden Week of 2003, and the unexpected popularity, especially among girls, and requests for merchandise of the show encouraged Marvelous Entertainment to follow through with the series. Each new show covers an arc of the manga storyline, though adaptations to the original story were made to fit the format. Female characters were removed, and irrelevant scenes or minor arcs were cut to move the plot forward.

At the start of the production, tickets did not sell out and the type of production was merely an experiment. Manga-based musicals were not frequently seen, if at all. But, within 5 years the musical became popular enough to demand for double casting of characters to handle the amount of performances and to allow for overseas performances in Korea and Taiwan. In addition multiple shows were live streamed into theatres all around the country to make up for the lack of enough seats in the actual venue. Eventually the musical production launched the careers of many of the "hottest" idols in Japan, like Kimeru, Kazuki Kato, and Yuu Shirota. Even Europe got a taste of the production, when three of the actors (namely Ryousuke Katou, Shintarou Akiyama and Yuuichirou Hirata) hit Paris to attend the 10th edition of the Japan Expo in 2009.

In May 2010, after 7 years, 22 musicals, 5 main casts and about 150 different actors had passed, the "first season" came to an end with the last performance of Dream Live 7th on the 23rd. Not too long after the end of the first season came the announcement and start of a “second season”. The Season 2 shows feature a completely new cast and a new script, but cover the same arcs as the first season. Season 2 ran a respectable 4 years before bowing out.

The series is now on its third season, beginning in 2015.

* AdaptationDistillation: Each installment of Tenimyu does a great job of condensing an entire arc of the manga into a two hour musical. For the Rikkai arcs in the 1st Season, it took two musicals for each.
** AdaptedOut: All the female characters are not included in the Musicals. Partially Averted in the Shitenhouji Musical, where Sakuno does appear... ''played by one of the actors in drag''.
* AscendedExtra: Compared to the manga, the Freshmen Trio have larger roles and musical numbers.
** In 2nd Season, some minor characters are added, like Uchimura and Mori from Fudomine and Taki from Hyotei.
* CastFullOfPrettyBoys: True to the nature of the original series, all the actors are young idols.
* TheMusical: A big stage case for a series about pretty boys playing tennis.
* ToBeContinued: Absolute King Rikkaidai ~1st Service ends in a cliffhanger after the doubles matches, with the song "Next", which teases the upcoming singles games in ~2nd Service.
** There's another one for The Final Match Rikkaidai First, which ends before the Ryoma vs. Yukimura game.
