Summary: Little Rui having lost her mother is sent by her father to be taken care of by a girl named Honoko, who looks almost identical to her own mother. But it's not just her face that has grabbed Rui's attraction to Honoko....it's also the passion for soccer!
Promising to become pro and play alongside her adopted sister Honoko, 13yr old blue-eyed Rui would let nothing stop her!

Recommendation: If you like a cute blonde and blue-eyed girl or just generally cute girls playing soccer, all of them with a common ambition in life, then this manga is for you!

Reaction: Wow, this manga is just what I like in a manga: Art (10/10), Visual Perspective (10/10), Characters (9/10), Story (9/10), POV (6/10) it jumps between Rui and Yayoi (the other newcomer), and Yuri (7/10). The yuri-part might change as the story progresses. What bugs me just now is that there's already excessive groping between the girls. Rui is only 13 years old, and her senpai grabs her breast as if it's nothing. Rui shrieks, and is totoally baffled, like WTH? It's funny if you read it, but that's sexual harassment nonetheless, especially if done to a minor! So wrong!

There are just the first two chapters so far, but damn, I love it already. It's about soccer, young girls playing soccer!!! And not just any girls, but beautiful girls, cute girls. And with such talent! I love the main protagonists, the blonde Rui, and the 15-year old Yayoi, Rui's roommate. We don't know yet much about the legendary Honoko. But surely there'll be more about her later.
