Synopsis

East Tokyo United has been struggling in Japan's top football league for a few years. In an effort to improve their performance, ETU hires a new coach, the slightly eccentric Tatsumi Takeshi. Tatsumi was once a star player on ETU before abandoning the team, but has proven himself as manager of an English amateur team. The task won't be easy as the teams pitted against ETU have bigger budgets and better players. However, Tatsumi is an expert at Giant Killing.

The biggest giant this series killed was my usual disinterest with sports manga.

STORY

I've always had a major roadblock between myself and enjoying a sports series: I know that the events taking place on the field are scripted. This may seem like a strange gripe, since EVERY event in every manga is scripted, with the outcome decided by the author long before I pick up the book, but I when it comes to sports series I have a particular problem suspending my disbelief. There just aren't that many potential directions a story can go when the only two realistic outcomes are 1) They score the points ...
