Farewell, My Dear Cramer
A sports manga that follows a group of high school female soccer players as they work to build a team that can compete in the nationals.
We’ve discussed this on several episodes found here, here, and here.
Our co-host Seamus recommended this one and I really liked it. There are plenty of soccer manga out there but this one is solely focused on female players. I liked how the series even addresses the problems these female athletes face in today’s society where they have such a limited opportunity to pursue a career because of how minor female soccer is in Japan.
A solid sports manga. I’ll be reading more. It’s available digitally through Crunchyroll and comiXology.
