Captain Tsubasa (2018)

Captain Tsubasa is the passionate story of an elementary school student whose thoughts and dreams revolve almost entirely around the love of soccer. 11-year-old Tsubasa Oozora started playing football at a very young age, and while it was mostly just a recreational sport for his friends, for him, it developed into something of an obsession.

In order to pursue his dream to the best of his elementary school abilities, Tsubasa moves with his mother to Nankatsu city, which is well-known for its excellent elementary school soccer teams. But although he was easily the best in his old town, Nankatsu has a lot more competition, and he will need all of his skill and talent in order to stand out from this new crowd.

He encounters not only rivals, but also new friends like the pretty girl Sanae Nakazawa and the talented goalkeeper, Genzo Wakabayashi, who shares the same passion as Tsubasa, and will prove to be a treasured friend in helping him push towards his dreams. Representing Japan in the FIFA World Cup is Tsubasa’s ultimate dream, but it will take a lot more than talent to reach it.

Truly, this is one of the best piece in Television history.Captain Tsubasa 2018 is a reboot of the classic football anime series that first aired in 1983. The new series follows the story of Tsubasa Ozora, a young boy with a passion for soccer, as he works to become the best player he can be.

One of the strengths of the series is its focus ...

This has been all for me ...
First of all I want to clarify that this review was based on the basic knowledge that I have of the industry and the respective adaptations that I saw in my childhood under this title that were "Road to 2002" complete and some chapters of the 94 'series.
To start honestly, I don't know, if it is due to the passing of time and when I grow up, this story does not transmit the same thing to me, or if it was just a bad adaptation by "David Production", but if they rush me, I would ...

Preliminary (10/52 eps)

This is my first exposure to anything Captain Tsubasa related. Honestly, I'm not impressed with this anime, but I neither find it outright terrible. I find it below-average and just "meh". This is out of 10 episodes and honestly I'm losing interest to keep watching.

Story: 4
Captain Tsubasa's story is a simple one. The story of a young prodigy who as a young child survived a potentially fatal hit-and-run by having his Soccer Ball serve as cushion. Now, I found that scene stupid in the anime with the way they presented it. It's so unrealistic and...hilarious. The story is typical based off the 10 episodes I've ...
