Akane takes on the world of rakugo to avenge her father! Shinta Arakawa wants nothing more than to pass his shin'uchi exam--the test that would make him a top-rank headliner and master storyteller in the traditional Japanese art of rakugo. Akane Osaki, his daughter and biggest fan, spies on him while he practices and learns his routines for herself. When rakugo master Issho Arakawa expels everyone after the exam with no explanation, a fire is lit inside Akane. From that day forth, she has had one goal--to avenge her father and prove his art was worthy of the title of shin'uchi. Akane is finally able to show off her father's rakugo to the world, but in doing so, she discovers there was something lacking...which means there's a chance for his style and for herself to grow. After the four-person selection event, Kaisei has some harsh words for Akane, but they don't deter her from continuing on her path alongside Shiguma's other apprentices toward greater heights. Then, Akane is presented with the chance of a lifetime when a certain master who can help get her promoted to the rank of futatsume comes into the picture.Shipping Notes

Nicer than I expected
Color: 12 Tennis Ball
Much more sturdy than other "squeaky" balls of this type. I love that they have an internal or covered squeaker, so I don't have to worry about my dog chewing it and swallowing a plastic squeaker. But ... what I find as a plus, my dog sees as a minus, since one of his favorite thing is to chew a ball until it stops squeaking. They come in a plastic net bag, which is very handy for storage also.

Squeaks break immediately
Color: 12 Tennis Ball
Squeaks break almost immediately, even with very light chewing. Some are so badly made that the squeaks break after one or two squeezes. Get Kong balls instead.

Nice balls but arrived with a bad chemical smell
Color: 12 Tennis Ball
Wonderful Product!!! The balls themselves are amazing and the squeaker in them my dog loves.
I am giving them only a three star because they arrived and they SMELL like chemicals so bad!!! I was afraid to give it to my dog so i washed one out and put it up hoping the chemical smell will go away. This not good for a dog as unknown chemicals can make them really sick. Whatever amazon is spraying on their stuff it's not good

Puppy tested & approved
Color: 12 Tennis Ball
I ordered these squeaky tennis balls for my cocker spaniel. She absolutely loves these tennis balls with the squeakers in them! She plays with them all day, and chews on them frequently. We have not had any problems with her, breaking the tennis balls, which is generally the issue we have with her. The tennis ball fuzz stays on the ball very well, which is usually an issue with standard tennis balls, because my dog likes to peel off the yellow fuzz on all tennis balls. She has not been able to do that with these. I will definitely be buying these again , but will not need to anytime soon as these are extremely well built.
