ALL OUT!! - S01

Rugby is a sport where anyone can be a star as long as they are holding the ball. The rules are simple: a player has to carry the ball across the field and past the goalposts while avoiding the other team, who are allowed to use all their strength to bring them down. But the player can pass to a teammate behind them or kick the ball before being tackled. Unlike other sports, the game keeps going even after the person with the ball is taken down. Kenji Gion is a short but fiery high school freshman at Kanagawa High School. Just after the opening ceremony, he meets the tall and timid Sumiaki Iwashimizu, and the two are invited to watch the rugby club. When Gion watches a match, he realizes that while big, tall guys have an advantage, there are positions for people of every shape and size. Convinced right away that he has found a sport where he can succeed despite being short, he signs up, though Iwashimizu refuses. Gion won't accept Iwashimizu's excuses and pulls him back into the sport. Their training becomes intense as they aim to become champions of Hanazono, the national high school rugby championship.
