Synopsis

Reporter uncovers legendary "Joker" player at amateur club, sparking underdog quest for Emperor's Cup.

"WANTED: Players with Beautiful Legs!" With that, Kicker Weekly sports reporter Yukari Ogata is sent on the onerous task to cover Tokyo Crusade, an amateur football club. But what would have been another frivolous assignment becomes a potentially worthy scoop, when Ogata discovers that Chihiro Oki—a football freelancer who goes by the name "Joker"—is playing at the tryouts! Rumors have it that the Joker can fill any position on the field, and whichever team he joins is guaranteed to win! But why has such a talented player gone unnoticed for so long? Throw in an ex-league professional, a bunch of ragtag players and the eccentric coach who will bring them all together, this Division III club may just have what it takes to win the Emperor's Cup!
