In a quiet rural town, the local junior high school football team's focus is on a single player: Ashito Aoi. Recognized for his erratic movements and self-absorbed style, Ashito is the only force driving his team through a crucial high school preliminary tournament. Yet, their winning run ends abruptly when an opponent provokes Ashito into a violent outburst, leading to his ejection from the remainder of the match. Deprived of their star, the team is swiftly knocked out of the tournament. Just as Ashito thinks all hope is gone, he is contacted by Tatsuya Fukuda, a youth team coach who detects potential in him. Fukuda invites Ashito to tryouts in Tokyo. Facing an unfamiliar environment filled with skilled players, Ashito must maximize his abilities to prove his worth and secure what might be a career-altering opportunity.
