I felt the need to review this since I saw only one other had the courage or made brain enough to.

Thus, Tanaka's high school soccer career prepares for the kickoff. The disappointed Kazumi wants to see the trio reunite, so she takes matters into her own hands in her mischievous way. When Tanaka starts to lose hope, an encounter with Kazumi Endo-a girl from his childhood-becomes the unexpected key to his freedom from despair.

Although Tanaka and his friends were once known as a deadly soccer trio in their junior high school days, Kenji and Kazuhiro have both quit soccer for personal reasons. The final nail in the coffin is the reluctance of Tanaka's friends, Kenji Shiraishi and Kazuhiro Hiramatsu, to join him in the club. To make matters worse, the freshmen are not allowed to practice alongside the sophomores or become regulars on the team. Kubo-the captain of the club-is absent due to illness. Now a high school freshman, Tanaka is devastated as his expectations suddenly start falling apart. You see in CT, matches are a matter of life and death, and I don't really think of it as a sport anymore when I'm reading it, it's more like Naruto, where balls have to be dodged otherwise you can die.Inspired by Yoshiharu Kubo's phenomenal performance that led Kakegawa High School to a miraculous victory in a soccer tournament, Toshihiko Tanaka decides to enter the same school as his idol and join the soccer club, hoping to become as successful as Kubo. That's why I say that ADS and CT cannot really be compared, because it all depends whether you like realistic sports manga or not. I don't find real soccer as fun as fantasy soccer which is why I prefer CT. The second group are people who doesn't have great interest in soccer like me. Realistic football would appeal to them instead, (Gol Den Age, Whistle and ADS) The first group are obviously people who are really soccer fanatics, and titles by Yoichi Takahashi (Captain Tsubasa and Hungry Heart) would not really appeal to them due to the excess drama and crazy moves. I have to say there are actually two groups of people that like to read/watch soccer manga/anime.

Maybe I'm biased but I even preferred the manga version of Whistle. So stop saying that there are no good soccer manga series out there, Captain Tsubasa still is the number 1 soccer manga despite the bad anime adaptations.īeing an avid sports manga fan, I tried reading Shoot (the first few chapters) and it just didn't appeal to me, I couldn't understand the actions, and I didn't find it very exciting to be honest. Now it seems that you guys are dissing Captain Tsubasa a lot, claiming that Shoot is so much better, perhaps the anime yes, but concerning the manga, I prefer Captain Tsubasa (just my taste for fantasy) and the latest CT manga series is among top 10 in Japan. I was searching for Captain Tsubasa and I just came onto this thread.
