The Captain Tsubasa: Rising Sun Finals manga is set to resume its serialization on October 6. Following a hiatus that began after the publication of its 100th chapter this past May, the series will return to a weekly cadence, with new chapters arriving every Tuesday. The continuation remains hosted on the official Captain Tsubasa World website, where the story has been presented in storyboard format since July 2024.
This final saga, which launched in April 2023, serves as the ultimate conclusion to the long-running soccer franchise. While creator Yōichi Takahashi retired from traditional magazine serialization in 2024—marking the end of the Captain Tsubasa Magazine run—the digital-first approach has allowed the narrative to continue toward its planned finale. The transition to this web-based format has been the primary home for the series since the magazine's final issue.
With roots dating back to the original 1981 Weekly Shonen Jump run, the franchise has expanded into four television anime series, four films, and various OVAs. The return of the Finals arc provides a clear path forward for the conclusion of Tsubasa Ōzora’s Olympic journey, though the total number of remaining chapters has not been specified. Readers interested in the series' evolution may note that this digital shift represents a significant change in production compared to the franchise's decades-long history in print.
