Description
Sasanami Unmei transfers to Nagumohara Junior High School in Nagasaki with a specific goal: to find an environment completely free from soccer, as he wishes the sport would simply disappear. At the same time, Endou Haru, a naturally gifted player who stands at the top of his generation, also struggles with complicated feelings about the game that has defined his family's legacy. The unexpected encounter between these two boys, each carrying their own burdens and resentments toward soccer, serves as the catalyst that opens the door for a new generation of heroes to emerge. Their meeting takes place against the backdrop of Nagumohara Junior High School, where their conflicting emotions about the sport begin to intersect. The story follows how these two protagonists, one fleeing from soccer and one reigning within it, ultimately influence each other and set the stage for what comes next in their journey.
