I know that 8+8+8+8+10=Overall 10. But that's how I feel. This is not the best drawn anime. It's not the best character driven or have the best plot or even sound. But this anime has something that most animes nowadays will never had. This anime made people around the world enjoy football (soccer to you americans). Fernando Torres; Iniesta and plenty other european players were fan of it. Some even say they went to play because of it. I am not even talking about Japanese players (https://www.tofugu.com/japan/soccer-in-japan/) This show is very good about a boy who will do everything to become a world cup winner and everyrival becomes his friends. They become the Under X Japan Team and then the World Cup.
But I understand this is not an easy series for someone with 20 years nowadays. I bet they would be bored by it. They would be bored of Dragon Ball (the first one) because that's the way of society nowadays...

People under 30 cannot fully appreciate what we over 30 had. We didn't had 100 series to choose from. We had 10. In Portugal (Where I live) we had 2 channels. That was it. Either I saw one or the other. No internet (I am talking from 85/93 or something like that). So we didn't knew nothing. Of course, after watching a gazillion animes, movies and series I understand how people would say yeah tsubasa is weak or dragon ball or MacGyver or A-Team. But to me, even if overall I cannot give in good conscious give every 10 (because they are not 10) I must give 10 because it belongs to me, in my heart througouht my life....

Sorry for the review. It was not only of Captain Tsubasa but... You get it. :)
