With Just That, I Feel Like I Could Keep On Running Forever

Tsukamoto Tsukushi has just entered Seiseki High School, renowned for its soccer club. That's when his classmate Kazama Jin invites him to play futsal because their team is lacking a player. Tsukushi is worse than a beginner, but he gives it his literal everything to score a goal. Seeing Tsukushi like that forces Kazama to remember the time when he used to get pure joy out of soccer.

I Want to be Part of the Dream

Tsukushi and Kazama, along with all the other first years who joined the soccer club, are forced to run outer laps as a collective punishment. As Tsukushi does not want to be a bother to the others, he asks the captain Mizuki Hisahito for permission to run everybody's laps by himself. Seeing Tsukushi continue to run relentlessly, fueled by nothing but the pure sentiment of “I want to play soccer with everyone", the other first years are inspired to join him. (Source: Crunchyroll)

Playing Soccer with You is Super Fun, You Idiot

I'm a Member of Seiseki's Soccer Team, Too
