He refuses offers from a number of foreign professional soccer clubs so he can stay at Kake-High to lead them to the All-Japan High School Championship. This young man led Kakegawa High Soccer Club to the best 8 of their prefecture in their first ever appearance with a freshmen only team almost single-handedly. After junior high, all of them decided to go to the same high school, Kakegawa High, a school only founded a year before, because of their star soccer player, Yoshiharu Kubo, whom they had idolized. There they were known as the Kakenishi golden trio for their role in making Kakenishi Junior High’s soccer team into a force to be reckoned with. Three high school freshmen who have become best friends during their junior high years while playing soccer together. This show at least emphasizes how great the modern sports anime have become.Aoki Densetsu Shoot! – Aoki Densetsu Shoot! (Legendary Blue Shot!) or also known as just “Shoot!”, is the story of Toshihiko Tanaka, Kenji Shiraishi, and Kazuhiro Hiramatsu. Nevertheless, it's not too bad and I will check out the movie this weekend. This show had a lot of pointless opponent characters with little or no backstory. Shows like Chihayafuru and Kuroko no Basuke do this well by giving more depth to their side characters and future rivals of the main team. Having them in the show made it so cringe worthy. Kazumi is so badly written (see my post in episode 56 discussion) and Natsuko as well.

For a 58 episode series, they had to throw in a badly written love triangle, lots of romance teasing and the male lead had to be oblivious as well? Omg, adding it made the already cheesy show, even more cheesier. It was obvious they would win and every match was predictable except for a few. Some matches (the one before this match was the best soccer match I've seen in anime) I liked how they were all skilled in different aspects (technique, pure power, and goalie-ing) Better than Whistle! but not better than Giant Killing or Ginga e Kickoff!!. EPIC show one of if not the best football anime It's like in the middle for me.
