Ganbare! Kickers

Synopsis: Kickers are first and foremost a soccer team. In fact, they are playing only for school, but they didn't cover themselves exactly with glory. When the new player, Gregor (Daichi Kakeru) arrives at school, they simply faced a resounding defeat again. However, thanks to Gregor, things will change. Highly motivated, they will try to get rid of their "always lost" image. His strongest enemy is the demons, which Gregor causes from the beginning. However, it is not a football. When the captain, Mario (Hongou Masaru), is not persecuted by his fans, the kickers usually stay and do things together.
