Taken from the immensely popular and long–running Japanese anthology Shonen Jump, Whistle! is a semi-autobiographical story about a young soccer player, Sho Kazamatsuri, who is prevented from playing the game by his old school’s team because of his height. He transfers to a different school, only to be misidentified as a star player, an image that he cannot realistically fulfill until he improves his abilities. Consequently, he drops out of school to become the amazing athlete that everybody believes he is. Creator Daisuke Higuchi based the tale on his own experiences. The series acquired such a huge following that it was an adapted into an animated TV show.
