In Japanese manga, there are often some "glass king" character settings.
Various abilities burst the table and hung the protagonist, but because of some Achilles heel, they limited their growth.
Jun Misugi, the "noble son of the green field" in "Football Boy", is a representative of such characters.
The noble son of the green field - Jun Misugi
Speaking of which, Jun Misugi appeared earlier than most of the characters in "Soccer Boy".
In the abandoned manuscript of "Soccer Boy", there is a delicate man named "Misugi Instant", which contrasts sharply with the protagonist Tsubasa Tsubasa (the prototype of Tsubasa) dressed as a bad boy in the scrapped manuscript.
This Misugi Moment is the prototype of Jun Misugi.

The scrapped manuscript of "Soccer Boy" was not approved when submitted
Jun Misugi's performance in the elementary school chapter can be described as the best. Not only does he have soccer skills that surpass the protagonist's big air wing, but his tactical understanding and command are not comparable to other elementary school students.
However, Jun Misugi is a strong opponent on the way to Tsubasa's victory, but the final boss in the elementary school chapter is very clearly set as Hinata Kojiro, so this requires the power of the plot to suppress Jun Misugi's strength to the level of Hikaru Matsuyama and others.
In other words, it is powerful, but it cannot compete with the protagonist.
However, Jun Misugi is obviously a player who is known as "beyond the wings", so the author cleverly uses the external cause of "heart disease" to make Jun Misugi's endurance only half a game, limiting his performance.
From a technical point of view, Jun Misugi in elementary school is beyond the Great Sky Tsubasa
The "King of Glass" was born.
Jun Misugi's character can be described as one of the highlights of "Soccer Boy", and the tragic color of the game is unattainable, which also makes readers particularly partial to it.
If the work ends here, then Jun Misugi will definitely be able to run for the most popular character in "Soccer Boy".
However, when the manga entered the World Youth Chapter, his position began to be in jeopardy.
This is due to the expansion of the stage, which is bound to cause the loss of character scenes, and Jun Misugi has become the biggest victim.
Jun Misugi, who wears the number 14 shirt, was originally modeled after Cruyff
Jun Misugi did not compete in the entire high school and developed towards the status of assistant coach, but Yoichi Takahashi also had a preference for him, so he continued to gallop on the field after he was cured of a heart attack.
However, he has long since entered the Japanese youth team not as Tsubasa's opponent, but as a teammate, but the front court position has long been occupied by Tsubasa, Hinata, Misaki, Matsuyama and others, if you want to make a difference, you can only change positions.
Yoichi Takahashi took a fancy to the weakest Japanese defense.
Jun Misugi, who once commanded his teammates to lay "offside traps", became the defensive leader of the Japanese team.
Japan's defense commander-in-chief, Jun Misugi changed from Cruyff to Beckenbauer
So everyone will see that Jun Misugi, who is only 177cm tall, withstood wave after wave of attacks from the other party with his not strong body.
This move freed up Jun Misugi's space to play, but it also led him to mediocrity.
Yoichi Takahashi did not particularly understand football, so he had almost no deep portrayal of defenders. For him, if the defender does not have the ability to withstand the "killing shot" with his body, he can only set up as a "free man in the backcourt" like Beckenbauer.
Unfortunately, the Japanese team has enough attackers, and it is difficult to spare a role for Jun Misugi.
To make matters worse, Yoichi Takahashi seems to have been unable to find the best position for Jun Misugi.
The two geniuses who were once now drifting apart
After moving from front to full-back, he sometimes returned to midfield to play with Misaki and Matsuyama, and became a right-wing-back at club – hence the nickname "Toyo Beckham".
So in the follow-up chapters, Jun Misugi may have one or two high-gloss shots, but it is just a snack contributed after Yoichi Takahashi passed over.
In the Asian qualifiers of the World Junior Championships, Tsubasa even said to Jun Misugi, "Ovilan is better than you".
The addition of Yuji Tseng and Igawa Taketo also put Jun Misugi's defender throne in jeopardy.
Even in the Olympic chapter, Jun Misugi scored a goal for the Dutch team as "another genius", and in the next match against Germany, he was almost bombarded by Schneider.

It's not so much that he is an all-round player, but that he has long been reduced to a tool man who makes up for the lack of people.
For his strength positioning, Yoichi Takahashi also has a choice.
In the current plot, Tsubasa Oku is in La Liga, Genzo Wakabayashi is in the Bundesliga, Hinata Kojiro is in Serie A, and although Misaki Taro is still in the Japanese Professional Union, he is already a member of the Grand Paris team in the side story.
Even the junior Kwai Xinwu also led the team to promotion to Serie B.
However, Jun Misugi, who is still in the Tokyo FC of the JLF, does not know when his spring will come.
