Story – The story is about a student named Sena Kobayakawa who enters a high school of his choice: Deimon Private Senior High School, where his childhood friend Mamori Anezaki attended school the year before. When he was young, he use to be a grofer for the bullies in his school, causing him to have a miraculous speed. His speed captures the attention of a 2nd year student, Yoichi Hiruma, who is the captain of the school football team. He and his friend "fatty", trick Sena into joining the Football team, thus begins the adventure of a life time.
Art/Animation – The art is Shonen like, some what comical.
Sound/Music – The music is sporty

(other characters must stay hidden, do to the fact of spoilers!
Enjoyment – I thought this anime/manga packed a really good punch. It’s funny to think that a small, scrawny boy makes his way into the football team. I really like the character’s personalities.
Islamic Factor – I think this anime is good for an islamic factor. It is a Sport anime, meaning that it focuses mostly on the game and less on personal problems. This anime teaches good moral lessons, never give up and always do your best. Even though there maybe lots of lying and trickery (Hiruma ) It’s mostly based on humor.
Conclusion– My friend actually recommended this anime to me, and now I’m recommending it to others. It’s really fun and even though I’m a girl, makes me interested in Football!
