It’s the opening ceremony of the International Junior Youth Tournament. As players from twelve participating countries gather, Misaki thinks back about his time in Japan and how far he’s really come. But the memories aren’t all happy. He remembers not only how his father’s career has had a major impact on his life and his soccer, but also how his father’s complicated life as an artist has pulled him into a situation where he is faced with a seemingly impossible dilemma.
I decided instead of being afraid of
failure and regretting not going for it,
Statt mich vor Fehlern zu fürchten,
Prefiero arrepentirme de hacerlo
Prefiero arrepentirme de hacerlo
Si jamais j’échoue, tant pis…
Piuttosto che non tentare per paura degli errori
Decidi que ao invés de ter medo
de falhar e não tentar,
Лучше попытаться и жалеть,
