This scene is one the most well written scenes of all time, they are all alone and manages to show every character and how they are doing being miserable despite it being a christmas song thats supposed to be cheerful
The ironic part is that this isn't a cheerful Christmas song, but rather a ballad of a man who is left "All alone on Christmas Eve, on this Silent Night I think I'll freeze". The lyrics aren't happy, and the song isn't either. You just think it's happy because of Kong and the rest of the Tsujido High Team. This is the most well written scene, because it adds to the irony that the only person who is surrounded by people during Christmas is the same man who hated being in Japan and having to play for an awful program with no talent just a few months before. Everyone else is All Alone on Christmas Eve besides Kong, and this scene manages to reinforce the changes in every character's life that occur on this one single night. You're absolutely right. This is one of the most well written scenes of all time, and it's only made better by the song choice (Midnight Flight by Shogo Hammada), and the added irony of Kong being the only one not alone as he sings it.
smokey0111 No problem. Unfortunately, it's surprisingly hard to find a good quality version of the song on youtube, since most videos which aren't covers have been removed due to copyright :/ I believe this is the original version. Not 100% sure though. watch?v=wMrX05Tvfik
sakuma looks older than peco and tskimoto from overworking himself in order to compensate for his lack of "natural talent". my heart kinda breaks seeing him have to do laborious work knowing that he doesn't have much else going on for him in his life at that stage. i mean imagine pressuring yourself to solely improve one skill which takes up all your spare time except when you have to work a dead-end, unsafe job. i never believed in talent, but some people just adapt so much more easier than others can. sure everyone can attain a certain level of skill with time and effort, but i guess there are people with just natural inclinations towards certain endeavours. sakuma just gave up because no matter how hard he tried he couldn't outstand peco who was mainly coasting for most of his time playing ping-pong until peco himself put in a third of the hard-work sakuma put in. as said by charles m schultz, creator of the peanuts comics, our talents are limited. i have no doubt in my mind you can get better at whatever skill you want but what's the use if you're not having fun while you're at it? it's often activities we love doing that we end up excelling at. too bad we think pursuing certain paths will validate our existence in someway... this anime just really gets me thinking...
Well said, there’s a lot to comprehend here just in all the visuals of this one scene let alone the show as a whole. Genuinely one of the most beautiful and attainable/understandable moments in anime, so many emotions for different characters rushing through my mind.
Com certeza minha cena favorita de qualquer obra. A construção dela é simplesmente incrível em todos os sentidos. A música deixou tudo mais fenomenal; ela fala sobre estar sozinha numa noite de natal, mas quem a canta é o único que não está sozinho, chega a ser até cômico e triste ao mesmo tempo. Uma cena essencial para o desenvolvimento das personagens, principalmente do Wenge, indo de um arrogante a um cara muito gente boa (meu personagem favorito). Vemos também todo o resto do elenco sozinho de alguma forma, aparentemente infeliz com sua noite de natal. De certa forma, fico triste ao ver essa cena, ela me faz refletir muito sobre a vida, assim como Ping Pong the Animation num geral, esse anime é uma verdadeira masterpiece. Genial

Solía pensar en mis momentos de deportista que podría ser como Peco, finalmente, creo que soy más Dragon. Dejé atras un sueño, me esforcé mas que nadie. Pero aveces el tiempo y las circunstancias ganan. No me divirtió ser obsesionado. No me divirtió quemar mi mente y cuerpo de esa forma. Aprendí disciplina y ahora disfruto lo que alguna vez hizo arder mi pasión, ahora son cenizas de algo que jamás volverá a arder en el deporte que quise. No es tan malo como parece. Estoy sano. Lo aprendí.

This scene managed to be so heartwarming yet so heartbreaking at the same time. I absolutely love it.
quite possibly one of the best shows ever made
no it is.
I watch this scene every year during Christmas
it's bean 3 years listening this song, and become more sad every time
Me too...
Are you ready?
This is my first year watching again this scene in the chrismas period
same
This is my favorite scene in the show, the singing with the visuals is just great
same mate same
True. It feels so sad and beautiful at the same time. Every character has a different story... And btw, nice pfp lol
The last scene of Smile sitting alone with a small Christmas cake is so saddening ;_;
This scene has so much heart.
Rsllxs I love this so much
heartiest scene in anime.
Here we go again...
Merry Christmas all!
This scene absolutely killed me. I haven't seen any blend of emotions executed so perfectly before or since.
ジュニアの代表に落ちて、ずっと一人だったコンさんだけが
「ひとりぼっちじゃない」クリスマスイブを過ごすんだよな。
watching this on christmas night is a vibe
Merry christmas ;_;
@@mario-f9b Merry Christmas my guy!
Kong is singing the song Midnight Flight by Shogo Hamada, for those curious.
Thank you very much.
smokey0111 No problem. Unfortunately, it's surprisingly hard to find a good quality version of the song on youtube, since most videos which aren't covers have been removed due to copyright :/
I believe this is the original version. Not 100% sure though. watch?v=wMrX05Tvfik
The best song since a while
ty!
Thank you!
Hearing Japanese with a Chinese accent really is something special lol
アニメでこんなに心から良いと思ったシーンは無いかもしれない
コンの歌声と浜省の歌とそれぞれの悩みや悲しみが合ってる

孔ちゃんの歌声メッチャいい…。
本当にほんとにこのシーン好きでめちゃくちゃリピートしてしまう

Easily one of the best scenes from anime this year.
The best imo
10 years and its still one of the best scene i have seen, makes me kind of sad
Merry christmas ;_;
Based Wenge
one of the best animated scenes ever
0:26 the gift were three masks and cake, but no one to share them with.
TOKAGERO1 so sad...
just when you thought it couldn't get sadder
everyone is alone expect the ones who are singing the song about being all alone, how ironic
Kong lost to almost everyone at table tennis. But he nailed the christmas party
Merry Christmas eve!
smile blowing those candles out at the end was so cold. this whole scene made me weep.
It's that time of year baby!!!
このシーンもう一度見たかったのでアップありがたいです。
何気にオンエア見ていたら、浜省をカラオケで歌うシーンが流れてきて
そのクオリティの高さと、懐かしさに感動し、2番に浜省本人が流れてやられました。
記憶に残るシーンになりました。
thanks to google translate I could undesrtand you :) your welcome
Man this was sad as shit
Time to come back here again
GOAT moment in anime history?
I wish this was on the official soundtrack. One of my favorite scenes in the whole show.
because the song is actually a real song ( not really "original") try to search for "midnight flight"
bo10029094
it is not sung by Kong tho ;_;
pretty sure there is still a copy right law where you have to pay kong boot load of money for putting that song in your ost

大げさだけど生きる気力が湧いてくるようなシーンだよ
孔の声優って中国の方だからうますぎてビックリ

The best scene in the show in my estimation
Breathtaking
I know it's not christmas on this 14th February, but damn it hurts
this scene was really hard to watch... dem feels (just re-watched the series... soo good)
百合枝不遇すぎるよなぁ
人間関係での現実味がよくできてるアニメだから風間のような人間の彼女なら仕方ないけど
Artist: Shogo Hamada
Song: Midnight Flight
Album: Wasted Tears (1989)
Was a good decision to watch this around christmas time
2021 christmas I was here
I will listen to this, on this Christmas for sure
1:25, cry or fap..huh, beside that, I really love this scene, espacilly Kongs singing x3

The wings carrying her away disappear into the night sky
There's no one else left here in the airport parking lot
If I'd told not to go, we'd be driving back to the city right now
My losss is so great, I can't even feel the pain yet
All alone on Christmas Eve, on this silent night Ithink I'll freeze
Where should I go from here?
Down on the ground, I can't see anything
I'm going to live with my sister in New York for a while
I can't live alone in Tokyo anymore
You only call me when you feel like seeing me
All I do is eat and drive and then go to bed
You've always believed in a formless love
You're just afraid of loving in earnest
All alone on Christmas Eve, on this silent night Ithink I'll freeze
The lights of the city we lived in together fade into the distance
Hello everybody! Merry Christmas
Another year gone...
泣ける…
