4. DAYS

Days anime

It’s been a long while since I watched a football (soccer in America) anime, I remember Captain Tsubasa was one of the few animes I watched during my childhood in the late 80s and remains one of my favourite anime. DAYS reminds me a little of Kuroko no basket (Kuroko’s Basketball). This anime centres around two boys who met under the most unlikely circumstances – their mutual love for football. Jin Kazama (not the one from Tekken) is considered a skilful football genius, while Tsukushi Tsukamoto is an ordinary football player with no special skills to speak of, but has a deep love for the game.

This sports anime should appeal to football fans, and if you have enjoy sports anime like Kuroko no basket and OVER DRIVE (by the same creator of this anime) – you’ll want to give this a shot.
