Whistle!, Volume 3

I have been a soccer player for ten years before I stopped playing. I then heard of a soccer themed manga called "Whistle!" I picked up the soccer ball again and started playing. "Whistle!" is a very well put together story of one kids love of a sport. Sho Kazamatsuri is a young upcoming soccer player who was put down at his old school. He decides to transfer to another school and try his luck there. The other players feel fortunate to have him (his last school had the best soccer program in the district) and expected great things from young Sho. Unfortunately, Sho has never played a real soccer game with anyone before! Now Sho must work from Dawn to Dusk to become the greatest player ever! I remember just going to a book store and reading of the shelf (when you read a book at the store, but don't buy it!). I remember reading this book and I ended up buying the entire series! It's comical, strong and will make you either to continue to peruse any sport or activity guaranteed! I began running and started getting tired and then I remembered Sho and I began to sprint! It may sound corny but it really does happen to ever one I lent this series to! If you don't believe me, read it yourself! It's one of the best underdog stories that will make you turn page after page and will make you hold your breath everytime! Whistle! Vol. 1 gets 5 stars out of 5. My name is Amone! Adios!

Im serious. Why do people hate this sieries!!! theres nothing stupid or boring about this manga sieries. I mean yes the 1st book is a little whimpy but come on its the 1st book jeez, the 1st volume of any manga sieries is normaly boring. And have you seen that in the other prevews that of who hate this sieries wrote "I read the 1ST BOOK AND HATED IT." come on people its the 1ST BOOK read the other volumes and youll see what im saying. Im going to tell you a story. Before i bought this sieries i was in the book store reading a little of WHISTLE and i liked it so i bought volumes 1,2, and 3.That night i read the whole 1st volume of WHISTLE and i thought " Jeez im not sure i want this book anymore. Its kind of boring but i bought the other 2 books i might as well read them" and i loved them ( as well as the other higher volumes). The storys about a kid named Sho and he goes to Musashinomori (Moo-sa-she-no-mory)junior high. He loves soccer so he joins the team but he is to small to do anything but errands. So he transfers schools to josui (jO-zoo-wee) junior high were he can play soccer. Im not going to spoil the the good parts of the story for you so you should read it. Over all this is a great sieries. Some other good manga are Naruto, One Piece, MAR, Hikaru No Go, The Prince Of Tennis,Shaman King, Dragon Ball Z, Zatch Bell,and Gamerz Heaven. Bleach i would give 3 and a half stars. Yu Yu Hakusho is good in the 1st 2 volumes but after that it just becomes a bloody/body part flying mess of disturbing art.

I think this book is great for 7+ of age because there is some blood.There are lots of good and bad characters. The main character has a name of Sho.This seris might be boring in the couple of chapters but it becomes extrodinary near the middle and from there this seris is totally awsome.I hope this review helps!

I thought that the first book had a lot of heart. I mean the story is about a boy who wants to follow his dreams and be a real soccer player. There are events in the story that keep you wanting to know what happens next. The book has the point of not giving up what you love that could encourage and happen to anyone. The author just based those pionts around soccer. Although it is about soccer it is also about friendship, dreams, and not giving up. Along with many other things you can find a likeness with yourself in all the characters. It is for me impossible to hate them. They all have dreams and they all want to follow them. Therefore I say that the book is great and it had a lot of heart. It was so great that I even went out and got the next 3 books. And believe me the characters get more growth over time.

I absolutly LOVE this series!!!! There are going to be 24 books in total, a very long series, but worth it. The anime has 39 episodes, but as of now it's only in japanese with english subtitles. Whistle! By Daisuki Higuchi is about a boy named Sho Kazamatsura who just wants to play soccer. He got into the nation's best school with an awesome soccer team, but he was only accepted as a substitute to do all cleaning work because he was short! A dumb excuse if you ask me! In the first book Sho defy's his parent's wishes and goes to live with his brother and transfers to Josui Junior High School instead of staying at the all powerful Musashinomori as a substitute. He is a terrible soccer player at first, and he's only on about the third grade soccer level. When he just transferred to Josui his teacher and students all expected him to be an awesome soccer player because he went to Musashinomori, but they were really disappointed. Sho doesn't give up, though, and skips school to play soccer alone in a park. Tatsuya, the best soccer member on the team, happened to be jogging by and sees Sho practicing. Sho asks Tatsuya to play just one match with him. Dribble and get past the opponent. Sho's persistance and stamina surprises Tatsuya. The next day he suddenly challenges the soccer captain for the position of captain. Tatsuya's team would only use substitutes (like Sho) while the "captain" could use whoever he wanted. A teacher asked why Tatsuya suddenly decided to challenge the "captain" and his answer was simply "It's because Sho is here now, I think it's time to try something new." They have their match and the scores tie up, until.... You'll have to read it to find out! Whistle! Is really an encouraging book, and it inspires you to never give up! Even if you're not a soccer fan (like me) The author explains the game really well, so you're not left behind. Whistle! deserves 7 stars!!!!
