This new sports introductory series is designed for children who want to start a sport but don't know where to begin, and for parents who want to teach rules and basic knowledge in an easy-to-understand way.

In Step 2, they can master techniques and practice methods through Q&A-style explanations with illustrations. The books also include a glossary reflecting the latest rules at the end, which is useful for parents and coaches.
The books feature an A5-variant softcover format that is easy to carry and read. To commemorate the launch, the manga is being released for free for a limited time on the 'Gakcomic' website. Future releases include swimming and basketball in June, and tennis and table tennis in September, with more to follow.
