Plot overview Soccer Suporter Case (Manga: 344-346, Anime: 279-280) Because of the huge similarity of their respective life stories (betrayed by their "black" team and fleeing from its greedy clutches), Higo has become a role model for Ai Haibara, formerly "Sherry" of the Black Organization. At first viciously scorned and derided by both the Noir and Osaka fans, he finally scored the winning goal in a decisive match against Noir, catapulting him back to celebrity status. Bitterly disappointed, Higo quit Noir and joined their major rival Big Osaka, who had hired Rikuo as a team coach. However, two years after they had joined Noir, Rikuo was forcibly evicted from the team because he was merely used as an enticement for the talented Ryusuke and his own soccer skills were below average, making him of no further use for them. Just after they joined the Noir Tokyo team, the two brothers encountered Shinichi Kudo during a soccer match for his middle school team and became impressed enough with his abilities to invite him to join them. He wanted to do this side by side with his older half-brother Rikuo Endo, to whom he was very close despite the fact that he was the result of his (Ryusuke) father's indiscretion with a mistress (Rikuo mother) a fact which was withheld from the public at large.

Right now, a premiere date has not been announced yet. While that goes on, racing takes place in the streets, treating viewers to some adrenaline-inducing scenes. A few of the classic anime’s characters will make appearances in MF Ghost, but overall, the story will focus on Kanata Livington, a Formula 4 world champion who is searching for his father in Japan.

For anime fans looking forward to a 2023 full of new, epic tournaments, here we list all the sports anime confirmed to release this year…so far. ![]() Animated sports enthusiasts are likely already familiar with these series, though, and as a new year begins, it’s time for something different. ![]() Some of the best and most popular sports anime include hits like Kuroko’s Basketball, Haikyuu!!, Slam Dunk, and Free!, all of which have helped the genre become the staple it is today.
