The original "Captain Tsubasa" manga series was quickly adapted into a TV animation series, produced by Tsuchida Production, whose first season premiered in Japan on Tokyo Network between October 10, 1983 and March 27, 1986. This first series adapts the first 25 volumes. Four animated movies followed soon after, between 1985 and 1986, continuing the storyline. In 1989 a new animation series, "Shin Captain Tsubasa", was produced by Shueisha and CBS Sony Group, Inc. and spanned 13 original video animations (OVAs). "Shin Captain Tsubasa" adapts the manga from volume 25 to volume 36.
