So, I read all of the classic 80s sports manga, Captain Tsubasa recently.

Some thoughts.

The notes on the Viz translation explaining West and East Germany for modern readers who don't know about it was a trip.

I'm still shocked over the idea of a 15 year old just leaving home to move to a new country without their parents to try to become a professional athlete and skipping high school. But, I guess that was the 80s.

It was such a fast paced manga, such an easy read.

Also, I've watched and played soccer - there's way more downtime in this manga where people have whole conversations than in real life.

It was a lot of fun, very melodramatic.

Glad I read it.
