Why we recommend it

This soccer survival story gathers 300 high school players in one facility to select the single striker who can change Japanese soccer. By urging players to make selfishness their weapon rather than teamwork, it gives every match the tension of a survival game.

Low on gore

It may not be for you if

Much of the exaggerated action feels closer to a battle between superpowered characters than soccer. If you want a realistic portrayal of the sport, Aoashi may suit you better.
