Kodansha opened an official website for an original television anime based on Tsukasa Ooshima's Shoot! manga on Wednesday, revealing a teaser visual (pictured). The anime, titled Shoot! Goal to the Future, is being produced by EMT Squared (Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear, Assassins Pride) for a 2022 broadcast.

Synopsis
Atsushi Kamiya is a former captain at Kakegawa High School and the world-renowned "courageous captain" for a famous Italian soccer team. Hideto Tsuji is a student at the same school, who seems uninterested in the now-weakened soccer team. Their meeting is the start of a new legend... (Source: Official site, edited)

Ooshima serialized the soccer manga in Weekly Shounen Magazine from August 1990 to September 1996, followed by three sequel manga between 1996 and 2003. The manga series has a cumulative 50 million copies of its volumes in circulation.

Toei Animation adapted the manga into a 58-episode television anime in 1993, followed by a sequel movie in 1994.

I swear this high horse that you live on is so fucking hilarious considering how your definition of quality are idol anime and a played out franchise that was never all that good to begin with (Symphogear) and yet you have the audacity to even suggest that you actually know wtf you're talking about and that your opinions actually mean anything xD


Right, I'll just go through everything you've said directly.

First, you appear to be under the definition that Idol anime and Symphogear particularly are of low quality. This is a completely baseless and especially unjustified opinion to hold, and thus means nothing in respects to support of your view. You disagree with something I like, is that supposed to mean something?

If you intend to go forward with this view, I fully expect you to attempt to prove it. I can already begin by demonstrating your interpretation to be incorrect, as it cannot by any measure be considered "played out," it was specifically made ready to conclude after any instalment, only going forward when an opportunity and idea presented itself.

Second, you follow with a clear Appeal to Poverty. This is a simple and obvious fallacy, and hence is an illogical claim. Even assuming you were correct about idol anime not being good, there's no reason why that should prevent me from making truthful statements.

This is not a counterargument, this is ignorance. Again, if you do believe I "don't know wtf I'm talking about," demonstrate how that is the case.

From you said that the literary term known as deconstruction is nonsense and indeterminate, I knew that once again I wasted my time even responding to your attempts at rational thoughts or anything worth using a brain cell for


Deconstruction is nonsense. It's usually misattributed to series that are subversions or parodies, and the work of Jacques Derrida that carries that name simply cannot apply to media. Hence, an indeterminate, meaningless term.

And again, you make insults about what I've said rather than pointing out how its incorrect, which only shows you're unable to and corroborates my point.

You're not 2/2....I simply ignored you because you only repeat the same nonsensical and holier than thou shit over and over and after a while it's gets boring seeing you embarras yourself here lol


If what I said was nonsensical, you should have been capable of demonstrating that to be the case. But, no, instead you ran, both times, as soon as you were presented with the unmistakable and frankly obvious conclusion that pumping out needless media in a dying franchise solely to make money is not a good thing.

I remind you I did still ask several questions you have a responsibility to answer if you still believe yourself to be correct about the matter. Until you do so, you're at a loss, no matter if you delude yourelf into thinking otherwise.

But like I said, your ignorance has been showing for a while and you pretty much proved my point again with this sad response to undermine sports anime because you simply are too dense to admit that youre full of shit


And that's simply a recursive argument. The idea that your point can be proven by my disagreeing with it is idiotic, since, if you did not hold it, I would not be disagreeing with anything.

I also note you didn't actually refute anything I said. Therefore, what I said holds true. Three, for three.

You hade me in the first half loool

Now we just need Be Blues to get an anime adaptation! I fucking hate Blue Lock but Ao Ashi is great so 2022 looks like a good year for football fans
Are you a footy purist like The Masked Man lol


Maybe.... Probably... Yea definitely...

I would've been fine with football with superpowers line kuroko, but an academy that destroys carrers for no reason and a director that knows nothing about fotball if he think that Japan hasn't won a World Cup because they're not "selfish" I just a WTF moment for me

Fotball is a team sport and always will be

I hope it is, and even more having the World Cup. It´s perfect. And I really like your thinking but the "I hate Blue Lock" parts just kills me. Still there are lots of football anime, hope they keep coming!

Edit: Heard there´s also a Futsal anime coming. Looks pretty nice


The Blue Lock fanbase is big and they probably hate me for this, but at that time I was really hyped for the "new big" fotball manga and what I got was something that just stomps on everything football stands for in my opinion. It just left a terrible taste in my mouth, the one positive thing is the art

Oh yea I've heard about the futsal anime, it'll need really good animation to be any good because of how showy futsal can get but hopefully they pull it off

I haven't responded to your hating, idol loving ass in a while but I'll bite this one time again because you're terribly misinformed and ignorant to sports anime

No, not all of them are the same....There's certain aspects of them that are the same (Such as the concept of teamwork or having ace players) but you have sports series like Kuroko that are over the top, and you have sports series like Haikyuu that are more realistic and focus on heavy character work in addition to heavy exposition on how the specific game is played

As for these new footy anime coming:

1. There has never been a futsal anime....Futsal and Football aren't the same

2. Blue Lock is a deconstruction of the traditional mindset of soccer players and essentially the traditional sports series in general

3. Ao Ashi is going to focus on a player whom will be learning and playing both as a offensive player AND a defender (I've been told that he's mostly going to be a Center Back/Defender - which in itself has never been done before - A main protagonist in a sports series being a defensive player)

And as for this one here, it sounds like this is a classic but its also a sequel which isn't something that you see everyday with sports series, where it looks like a former prominent character from the original series is taking on a mentor/manager/coach role


You know what, since you embarrassed yourself twice before, I'll try three for three:

Functionally all you've listed is minor differences in flavour that fail to actually strike at the heart of the repetitive nature of the genre. Suggesting that a player being at a different position on the pitch, or a character from a previous series being present in any capacity are entirely upending the entire concept and creating a genuinely new story is simply laughable. They all function on the same underpinning theme, so there's simply no actual change from a narrative perspective. And that's true for your so-called "deconstruction" as well, since that's a nonsense, indeterminate term.

The genre is recycling the same idea over and over with a new coat of paint, and you're falling for it. Sad, frankly.

How can anyone give a shit? Honestly? I get that some people may be dim enough to want to watch sports anime at some point, but is there anyone who actually enjoys getting so many of the same bloody game? Surely, after you've seen one football show, you've seen them all.

Not personally excited for Blue Lock but at least it looks more original then this cookie cutter football cardboard.

Nov 18, 2021 10:06 PM by Stripes

Wait, you already have a manga and an old TV version...

So making this a "reboot" is more suited.

Nov 18, 2021 7:42 PM by KANLen09

I really enjoyed Aoki Densetsu Shoot a few years back so I'm very much looking forward to this!

A adaptation already exist. I hardly doubly this one will provide any extra content to 58 episode anime, unless previous version is not following the manga.

There are manga sequels after original 33 volumes of original actually, titled "Shoot Hot Challenge" and "Shoot Legend of a New Age". And also one manga prequel "Shoot in Memory". There are more than enough content if they just remade it.

I said that because usual anime nowadays wont go that far to cross that many episodes like what happened in captain tsubasa's case
Anyways this one is neither a sequal or remake

I was happy when I saw Shoot receiving a new adaptation but then I saw it's an original anime based on it, kind dissapointed but still looking forwqrd to it.

Nov 17, 2021 2:35 PM by MegamiRem

So Kamiya after become a renowned world class player come back to Japan ?
More similar to Major 2nd actually.

I prefer a remake actually. Seeing famous scenes from the original in newer animation will be cool. They haven't animated manga sequels anyway.
