Shame this title is so overlooked and underrated...
IMO, this is not only a must see classic, but also the most honest comedy anime can offer, and the best one for a loong time, surpassed only by Gintama

main cast
There are six members in the boy's ping pong club: two are relatively normal; however, the other four consist of an aspiring sexual deviant, two perverts, and a guy with lethal B.O. Add in a cantankerous girl as a manager, and you have the entire crew.
The antics of the ping pong club include one member's trademark "Protruding Pecker Serve", molesting cross-dressing members, and the infamous "Turtle Sequence".

If your an anime fan you have to watch this, one of the classics with pure unadulterated comedy. Warning this will make you laugh hard.

A comedy that goes very far, but does so with grace, style and without insulting one's intelect. Somebody likened it to Southpark which I disagree with, this superfunny anime owes more to Monty Python.
It's precisely the lack of stupidity in its (often toilet or cruel!) comedy that makes this anime so special.
