Whistle!

It's the first game of the season and Josui Junior High is matched up against cross-town rival Musashinomori. The elite private school has the better soccer players, but Team Josui is hoping to steal a win with extra hustle and desire.

Can Team Joshua teach arrogant hothead--but fabulous soccer player--Ryoichi Tenjo a lesson in humility?

Sho Kazamatsuri is the leader of the Josui Junior High soccer team and he does everything he can to keep his team together and to be the best.

Sho Kazamatsuri and Tatsuya solve their conflict over Tatsuya's father, but they, and the rest of the Josui soccer team, still need to vanquish Rakuyo in the PK shootout.

In the district finals, and Josui is up against Hiba, whose perfectly orchestrated teamwork is taking a toll on Josui. As the game progresses, Shô and team resort to desperate tactics and a surprising fact about Shô's past comes to light.

In a practice game, Coach Saionji has the players take positions they aren't used to, and Shô comes to the painful realization that trying hard may not be enough; he must change his whole approach. Soon Shô is face-to-face with Takashi, his tough new rival for the position of forward. If Shô can't overcome his rival's domineering attitude, there's no place for him on the all-star team.
