He wasn’t the star of the team. But he was always the first one on the pitch.
In this second part of Wataru Endo’s story, we go deeper into his early years in Japan—through the voices of those who knew him best.
From strict school routines to humble beginnings, Young Endo 2 shares surprising stories from Wataru’s childhood: a quiet boy who kept showing up, worked harder than anyone, and believed he’d make it—even when no one else did.
Featuring memories from his junior high school teacher and childhood friend, this episode reveals the roots of Wataru’s leadership, kindness, and unwavering determination.
“Even now, I don’t think I’ve made it. I’m still on the way.”
