The only redeeming quality of this is the main character being a girl, which breaks monotony of boring male protagonists. Outside of that, it's not memorable in the slightest.
A nice and quick read, I really don't have much to say about this 8-chapter title. It was good enough with a nice main character in the form of Onda, it makes me wish there was more girls like her in manga. I kind of wish that this would be expanded but at the same time the story is kind of perfect length as is, I just always want more romance.
No crap in this one, from beginning to end the manga is about a girls struggle to play a sport she loves even when the odds are stacked against her. The manga itself shows why its very hard for a woman to play soccer against man at a certain age but not to make man look superior but to show that it doesn't matter all the time if you have the heart to play.
Wow, it's been so long since I read a sports manga that made my heart pound like this! The female lead is so refreshing! She's not like those wimpy cliche-ridden shoujo heroines at all! She's strong-willed, upbeat, and so passionate! I love how realistic her struggles are. It's not a make-believe where a girl gets so good she's better than all the guys. I don't have any complaints about this manga

I've only read 4 chapters, but I'm already in love. It's always great to read sports manga with a strong, female lead, but what I especially like about this manga in particular, is the struggle she faces in trying to be recognized for her talents despite her gender and the vulnerability it gives her.
Besides that, the manga is looking pretty good; the mangaka does a nice job with the characterization by keeping the characters realistic and the plotline thus far seems interesting.
I hope the next chapter comes out soon!

Nice to see a manga once and a while where a girl has a greater ambition than to hook up with the guy next to her. Here we have a realistic shounen where the girl, whose passion is football, has to struggle to get recognised in a sport which is male-dominated, and a situation where everyone tells her to give up because of her gender. Looking forward to see how this one pans out, and how she deals with the situation.
A pretty solid start, and I hope it stays that way.
