Then, in the final match, Ozora Tsubasa returns to Japan. With Tsubasa as captain, the All Japan Youth team regains its original strength. And with Tsubasa at the helm, the All Japan Youth team finally begins its counterattack against the Dutch youth team, which is full of top players. ■ExplanationThis work was shown at the Shueisha-sponsored event "Jump Super Anime Tour '95," which began in October 1994.
