The official X account for Yoichi Takahashi's legendary Captain Tsubasa franchise has confirmed that the Captain Tsubasa: Rising Sun Finals manga will resume its serialization schedule on October 6, with fresh chapters dropping every Tuesday.
The sports drama series previously went on hiatus following the release of its milestone 100th chapter back in May. The ongoing narrative has been published in a unique storyboard format on the dedicated Captain Tsubasa World website since July 2024, following Takahashi's transition away from traditional weekly magazine publication schedules.
Franchise Legacy and Format Evolution
The broader cultural footprint of Captain Tsubasa remains a cornerstone of sports manga history. Takahashi's original 37-volume masterwork ran in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump between 1981 and 1988, sparking global enthusiasm for soccer and inspiring numerous television anime adaptations, theatrical films, and stage productions across roughly 20 countries.
While Takahashi officially retired from standard weekly and monthly magazine serialization in early 2024, concluding the print run of Captain Tsubasa Magazine, his dedication to completing Tsubasa Ozora's Olympic journey through storyboard chapters ensures the definitive athletic saga reaches its intended conclusion.
