Each set of 4 episodes introduces one kind of sport: 1-4 wheelchair basketball, 5-8 para athletic high jump, 9-12 Goalball (similar to handball just for vision impaired), 13-16 para swimming. Each protagonist is modeled after a real person who get's introduced at the end of each set.

The animation and design allover is very simple. Each episode is about 8 minutes long.

Also the story of each set is kinda similar: The youths get introduced to the sport, they are training and they win a game or competition after the "door to their potential" has been opened.

But I liked this little series anyway. I heard or read about para sports a lil bit here and there but never watched anything about it and was pretty uninformed. In that way it was pretty interesting to see how some sports got adapted or transformed into similar sports so everybody has the possibility to do some sports at least. The sport I liked the best from all introduced sports was goalball. I thought it was exciting!

· castno description set
· · male protagonistThis anime has a male protagonist. weightless
· · predominantly male castThe anime features a mostly male cast, i.e. female characters are rare. Example: Reverse harem setting with a plethora of bishounen. weightless
· competitionSome sort of confrontation occurs in this show. The protagonists "duke it out" via various competitions. weightless
· speculative fictionSpeculative fiction is an umbrella genre encompassing fiction with certain elements that do not exist in the real world, often in the context of supernatural, futuristic or other imaginative themes. This includes, but is not limited to, science fiction, fantasy, superhero fiction, horror, utopian and dystopian fiction, fairytale fantasy, supernatural fiction, as well as combinations thereof.
· · science fictionScience fiction stories usually focus on how situations could be different in the future when we are more technologically advanced; due to either our own achievements or having met with other civilizations whom we have learned from. *
· · · mechaMecha in Japanese basically means mechanical things; everything from an electric whisk or a car to a spaceship or a robot. Here however we limit it to the more exotic things usually referred to as mecha anime: robots, whether controlled by a human or not, and their ilk. *
· · · · robotA robot is an automatically guided machine, able to do tasks on its own. Another common characteristic is that by its appearance or movements, a robot often conveys a sense that it has intent or agency of its own. Not to be confused with android (human-like robot). *
· · · · · robot helperIn a science fiction setting, the robot helper is, in a comedic sense, pretty much equivalent to what the "cute comic relief animal sidekick" is in a fantasy setting. The usually small machine has artificial intelligence, enabling it to support their owner / master with advice or help with menial tasks.

Androids should not be considered robot helpers since these are far more complex; use the android tag instead. *
· CAST MISSINGImportant characters are missing, either in-part or entirely. This includes basic entry info (name, gender, picture), appear episode range, seiyuu and/or tags. weightless
· DESCRIPTION MISSINGThe description for this entry is missing. e.g plot, biography... Please help by adding it, and remove this tag afterwards. Thank you. weightless
· STAFF MISSINGThis anime is missing staff credits. Please assign staff credits to the anime accordingly and then remove the tag. Please see the full tag description for details on this. weightless
· Japanese productionno description set weightless
· timeThis placeholder lists different epochs in human history and more vague but important timelines such as the future, the present and the past.
· · futureAnime that fall under the future category are the ones that have a society that could have originated from ours. In most cases it should go hand to hand with sci-fi since we expect the future to consist of advanced technology, however, in the case where it`s explicitly stated in the story that the anime takes place "x years into the future", the state of technology doesn`t matter as long as it`s long into the future. The anime can be set in an alternative universe not tied with our own, as long as it has a futuristic feel to it. This category sports quite a lot of anime, mostly stemming from SciFi, but not necessarily only from there. ***
· short episodesShort episodes are regular episodes that are much shorter than the standard length. This means up to and including 10 minutes; shows with episodes that are 11 to 20 minutes in length are half-length episodes instead. Not to be confused with multi-segment episodes, which are regular episodes that are split into several short segments (parts), usually with separate titles and independent storylines. weightless
· sportsSports anime revolves around a recreational physical activity or skill. In addition they often adhere to certain genre conventions, the emphasis on training and practice in preparation for competition, characters desire for self improvement, and pursuit of a specific goal. ***
· · wheelchair basketballWheelchair basketball is a basketball variant played by people with varying physical disabilities that disqualify them from playing an able-bodied sport. It is recognized by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) as the sole competent authority in wheelchair basketball worldwide and it is included in the Paralympic Games. ***
· trainingTraining is extensive, serious practising a person undergoes in order to develop skills and abilities, such as handling weapons, playing instruments, playing sports, and so on. *
post-credits sceneA little bit of the story is found after the credit titles. A little bonus for those patient enough! This applies regardless of if the credits play over an ED sequence, or over the "regular episode" that continues to air into the credits. A sequence at the end of an episode, showing what will happen in the next episode, is NOT a post-credits scene; that is a preview. 3 eps applies to episode(s): 4, 8, 12
