Synopsis

Tokio and his father Amon go to the soccer country of Elevenia where they see a parade of the strongest soccer team of that country, the Winners. Amon challenges the team captain Leon to a soccer battle and, when Amon loses, Leon turns him into a miniature dragon. Tokio sees the fight and decides to challenge against Leon so that Amon can become human again. (Source: AnimeNFo)

Audience Consensus

Dragon League is viewed as a product of its time, with some charm but also technical limitations. Some enjoyed the humor and unique elements, while others found the story and production to be lacking. Overall, it seems to be a nostalgic experience for some, but not a universally acclaimed anime.

Strengths

  • Fun protagonist
  • Ecchi touch provided by the dragon father
  • Good ending (according to one viewer)

Weaknesses

  • Old style artwork
  • Limited and repetitive animation
  • Mediocre sound and music usage
  • Typical adventure story with overpowered skills
  • Story could have been developed in fewer chapters
  • Emphasis on the final soccer game could have been better
