As a former soccer player this anime gets a bit frustrating...

Making such a big deal about just controlling the ball and opening your body. It's a miracle Aoi got signed haha.

Well, imagine he's an undeveloped version of a De Bruyne or Ozil. He has none of their footballing ability, touch, technique or tactical understanding, but that's not what make them unique and among the greatest creators in history, it's their vision and ability to, in a split second, see openings before they exist, and be in complete control of the flow of the game. Aoi has that innate almost supernatural trait that only a select few in a generation possess.

By now you know the role Fukuda has planned for him and the mangaka shows he's surprisingly knowledgeable about the development of modern tactics in recent years by Pep, and Arteta. I don't want to spoil what's to come, but what makes the manga special, is it's actually not a simple football/soccer manga, where anyone growing up playing, and/or passionate about tactics, roll their eyes at the lack of tactical depth, but modern concepts like inverted fullbacks, is a central theme, and it's a great manga for anyone interested to lesrn some of the subtleties of the game.

The animation is quite stiff, and the anime can't quite recreate the beauty of the game (so far after 9 ep), but I really enjoy the manga, and I'm happy to see it animated.

This is an amazing sports anime masterpiece, which opened up and increased my knowledge, especially in terms of football, now I as an observer found Ashito in Trent Alexander Arnold (an English footballer) playing for the Liverpool club, before I didn't really mind it, but after seeing this anime I feel that my view of football is the same as the character "Anri" in this anime which is oriented towards strengthening the midfield, and now I know how strong the influence of a wing defender who can play at different levels is. Currently, even according to what is in this anime, Liverpool and Trent Alexander Arnold show their fangs with the playing style shown in this anime, so in my opinion "this is a very amazing anime, which can change your view of football, 10/10 "I hope to deliver the next season as soon as possible. Thank You.

Aoi is learning more from his teammates than his coaches that's for sure
