Summary
Isagi remembers the first time he kicked a soccer ball. He was 4, barely reaching his father’s knees, and he kicked the ball straight into the net. He remembers the thump of the ball, the sound of the net swishing, and the feeling of exhilaration.
A genius is what his father called him. It’s a title that he still holds years later, deep into his high school years.Series

Summary
Isagi Yoichi.
At the age of 4, he played football for the first time. A single goal sealed his fate.
When news of a prodigy began to spread, the JFA took special interest in him. He was suddenly the face on the front of every sports magazine, making TV appearances, playing in exhibition matches where he was pitted against kids much bigger and older than him–and he won. Every. Single. Time.
By 7, he was a household name in Japan. They called it a once-in-a-lifetime genius; a superior breed of talent that stands above the rest. If you ask Isagi, he’ll give you a smile. Sweet with a carefully measured curve.
“I’m just observant, that’s all.”
