Pony Canyon and their regions blocks.. Here's an alternative link to the PV. Looks pretty promising btw.

Yay for living outside the U.S.? I didn't even realize Pony Canyon region-locks their videos.

Only for U.S. & Germany. Rest of the countries, more or less, are free to view videos uploaded by them.

I used to be a huge Captain Tsubasa fan so I've kept my eyes on this one... The animation looks very good!

I hope this anime has a lot of super power skill and a lot off asspulls like kuroko's basketball. Thats how you make a good sport anime

I am looking forward to this anime LIKE HELL. Football (Soccer) is my favorite sport, and after Captain Tsubasa, it didn't get a good anime for a while. I am reading the manga and I love the characters.

Nice PV; the music is epic. This might make me appreciate football.

LACK!!! LACK OF IMPACT TO ME!!!! NEED MORE RAGE!!!! THIS IS NOT FOOTBALL!!!
The way they make the football in action was actually really good in my opinion but it's LACK OF IMPACT!!!! RAGE!!! NEED MORE RAGE!!!
well, i guess i will try to watch it because football is my fav sport too. hope it will not end up like Prince of Stride....

Shit, just why one of my favorite got here?
Well, MAPPA was gonna animate so it could be good.
But Yoshitsugu was main here, maybe I'll pass.
