Chapter Eighty-Five: Dreams, Efforts, and Everything [Subscribe Only!2nd Update]
"Mom, I'm nervous ......" Kimura, one of the finalists in the elementary school and below category from Tokyo, although he looked like a hero on the high-profile stage, but off the stage, he was nervous. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
His palms were covered with sweat, and he was still sweating despite carrying a towel and wiping it constantly.
The mother didn't know what to say. The mother, who is just in her early thirties, has experienced the biggest scene since she was a child, that is, participating in the chorus in front of the whole school teachers and students. Playing a game under the gaze of 90,000 pairs of eyes on the scene, she really hasn't experienced it.
As a football coach, he encouraged, "Don't think too much, just play games at home." What's wrong with the finals? You can't win the finals? Who are you? You're my son! Not only will you win the game in front of you and become the champion, but you'll also win the championship of the final all-age finals! Yes, my son. ”
Kokimura glanced at his father, slowly clenched his fists, and nodded firmly.
The Kimura family was not in a good situation when Kimura was three years old. Football has never been a national sport. Baseball, the sport that all the people love, is called the Professional Baseball Central League, the Pacific League, Koshien, and all of them are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
And what about football? There has never been a celebrity who has almost never been a household name.
Asians seem to be born with poor physical strength, and no Japanese player in the world has achieved too much.
However, since 1980, when a manga began to be serialized, everything has changed.
Soccer Kid!
Big Wing!
This is a story that takes place between the sixth grade of elementary school and the professional football world of Tsubasa Oku, a teenager who culminates in soccer skills.
Since the beginning of the manga serialization, it has been popular with manga readers across the country.
Since 1983, when the TV animation was broadcast, the influence of the big air wing has spread all over the world.
The entire football industry did not expect that the fate of football would be rewritten by a comic.
Countless young fans of this manga began to learn football.
Sneakers, footballs, pitches, coaches.
From various equipment to fields to coaches, football-related industries have turned over overnight.
Kokimura's father also caught up with this trend, and the family, which was not considered wealthy, slowly became wealthy.
However, the father who sees Kokimura as a hopeful father discovers that his son does not like football. Instead, I fell in love with video games.
The father, who forcibly reversed his son's dislikes, thought about it and said to his son, "It's okay if you don't like to play football, you like to play games!"
Kokimura may be the first child who is trained to play games by the training method of training soccer in this book.
Dad Kimura really loves children, and he delved into how to play video games. A series of training courses for video games from basic to advanced have been established. It's like training football, running to train physical fitness, and juggling the ball to practice foot feeling. Kimura has set out the basic items from video games to train his son's abilities.
Agile reflexes, accuracy of input, backboard, subconscious muscle memory.
Even if Kokimura likes games, he is almost made cold by this set of professional and boring training.
But what is it that makes professional training fun?
While Kokimura was agonizing over whether to give up video games, the sound of Takahashi was going to host the Tetris national tour reached his ears.
Although Takahashi did not save a shaky industry like "Soccer Kid", like Big Sky Wing. Video games don't need to be saved by Takahashi, but countless children, just like they fell in love with football with Tsubasa Okubashi as their idol, also fell in love with video games because of Takahashi.
After the "Space Warrior" competition, Kokimura didn't even audition. This time, I made up my mind to win, I must win the championship, and I must see my idol with my own eyes!
Tetris, which is made up of blocks of various shapes, is unlike any other game in the past. When Kimura's father learned of Kimura's goal, he developed a Tetris training plan specifically for him.
Originally, the two of them had to go to the arcade hall to practice together, but it wasn't until Wanhu launched the red and white version of "Tetris" that the practice became much more convenient.
How to get a high score with a limited number of squares?
How to use as few operations as possible and as fast as possible to get the blocks to fall to the corresponding positions?
Study.
Experiment.
Practice.
Kokimura and his father worked hard as hard as they did experiments and scientific research.
Hard work pays off.
Although Tokyo has the latest and most comprehensive games, Tokyo is also a terrifying place with many players, comparable to a monster cage.
Although Kokimura participates in the elementary school and below categories, he is still a master.
Masters from all walks of life, who fought in the arcade, or talented players, all lost one by one in the battle with Kokimura.
Kokimura also became the king of this monster cage and had the honor of representing Tokyo in the national finals of Tetris.
However, Kokimura and his father, although they have designed a professional training program, have achieved good results. However, the psychological construction is neglected.
Kokimura, who had almost reached the limit technically, was not nervous when he competed in the Tokyo area.
However, now that it is time to compete in the national finals, it is being watched by countless people. After winning one game after another, he began to get nervous.
What should I do if I lose?
How should I face Takahashi if I lose?
How should I face my friends if I lose?
One after another, with the premise of "losing", the idea that he had thought about before suddenly broke into his mind.
He's afraid of losing!
He began to fear.
His palms were covered with sweat and he couldn't wipe them clean, and although he clenched his fists in the face of his father's encouragement, his psychology was still nervous.
The staff began to remind that the game was about to start.
Kokimura, who was in a somewhat abnormal psychological state, pretended to be strong and walked onto the field.
The idol is around, countless people's eyes are focused on him, and several cameras show his figure across the country.
I'm going to win!
Can't lose!
Kokimura's left hand rests on the arcade gamepad and his right hand rests on the buttons.
"Game on!"
Takahashi spoke into the microphone and said the game was on.
“3!”
“2!”
“1!”
“GO!”
Whether it was the arcade screen in front of Kokimura or the "screen" that the audience saw, the countdown began.
Whereabouts!
Move!
Deformation!
Eliminate!
The simple game contains the dreams, sweat and hard work of Kokimura.
To win!
You have to win!
Kokimura shouted frantically in his heart.
