Unmei Sasanami

Sasanami Unmei is the assistant manager of the Nagumohara Middle School soccer team.

As a child, he was passionate about soccer and even played on a team. However, during a match at the age of seven, he suddenly collapsed due to a previously undiagnosed congenital heart condition. Following the incident, doctors and his family advised him to avoid any strenuous activity, forcing him to give up the sport he loved.

Heartbroken by this turn of events, Unmei searched desperately for a way to recover and return to the field, but was ultimately left without a solution. Since then, he has distanced himself from playing soccer entirely, choosing to suppress his connection to the sport in order to protect himself from further disappointment and pain.
