This release is courtesy of an anonymous source. He was quite literally saved by football (it cushioning the impact) 10 years before when he was playing with one, and ever since then, his motto of “the ball is my friend” prevailed – and so he became a child prodigy who met other child prodigies in his elementary school at Nankatsu Town.Īnd of course, today we have the entirety of David Production’s adaptation, which was dubbed in Miami for broadcast in the U.S. Who is he? Well, he’s an 11-year-old boy eager about football and dreams about winning the FIFA World Cup for Japan (a dream we’ve all but given up on over here, sort of). He, of course, is football’s most prolific fictional captain, Captain Tsubasa – so powerful he can influence players across different continents (Europe and Middle East where football is enjoyed by most)! The other noteworthy adaptation they’ve done is Cells at Work – but for most non-American countries, these guys have remade one of the biggest sports phenomenons of all time. David Production has, admittedly, been a busy studio this past decade – and chances are you know about them from their masterful anime adaptation of the first five “Parts” of the legendary Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure (which involve Phantom Blood, Battle Tendancy, Stardust Crusaders, Diamond is Unbreakable which is my favourite and finally Golden Wind).
