Comments
Original story / Mr. Daaki Iga
It was a job that required special determination for me to serialize my first soccer manga since "Knight of the Area" in Weekly Shonen Magazine with the same duo. I had to make sure that the work would not disappoint the fans of "Knights of Elia" while having a different and new appeal. I am sure that our enthusiasm will be conveyed to you when you read our work.

Manga by Mr. Kaya Tsukiyama
It has been a long time, Weekly Magazine readers! I am back with a soccer manga that I have longed for! You may think that I have already done this a lot with "Knights of the Area," but as the characters and playing styles change, soccer will become a completely different thing! We are having a lot of fun drawing it, so we hope you will enjoy it too!

TV anime "Knights of Elia" will be available for free for one month only.
