Tsubasa Oozora loves everything about soccer: the cheer of the crowd, the speed of the ball, the passion of the players, and the excitement that comes from striving to be the best soccer player he can be. His goal is to aim for the World Cup, and to do that, he’s spent countless hours practicing soccer, ever since the moment he could walk on two legs. Now, as he plays for the Barcelona team in a fierce game, it seems as though his dreams are on the verge of coming true. Captain Tsubasa: Road to 2002 tells the story of how Tsubasa climbed his way through the ranks, featuring his roots in the town of Nankatsu as well as his epic journey to master the art of soccer. Captain Tsubasa: Road to 2002 (キャプテン翼 ROAD TO 2002) is the third regular series of the Captain Tsubasa manga series. It is the direct sequel to Captain Tsubasa: World Youth Hen and follows the exploits of the cast in their professional career as footballers, focusing mostly on Tsubasa’s quest to be a regular in Barca after leaving Brazil’s Sao Paulo FC.
