Hungry Heart: Wild Striker

Kyousuke Kanou has spent years measured against his older brother Seisuke, a celebrated Japanese soccer star. Unable to keep pace with that towering reputation, he’s grown up carrying the weight of comparisons and living in the shadow of someone else’s success.

As he starts his first year at Jouyou Akanegaoka High School, Kyousuke decides to quit soccer for good. But Miki Tsujiwaki, captain of the girls’ team, and Mori Kazuto, manager of the boys’ team, see ability he’s trying to leave behind—and each has reasons to push him back onto the field. Given a chance to play again, Kyousuke must choose between walking away from the sport he once loved or rekindling his drive to chase a striker’s dream.
