While the first trailer for Sepak Takraw didn’t reveal much about the series, what we do know is that the story will follow Eyo (Timoteo), a student and a Sepak Takraw player.

Not familiar with the sport? Well, Sepak Takraw or kick volleyball, is a popular sport in Southeast Asia (including the Philippines). The game plays much similarly to volleyball, but players are only allowed to use their feet, knee, chest, and/head to touch the ball (that’s made out of rattan).
