DOGSRED GN (2025)

After winning the national championship, 15-year-old figure skater Rou Shirakawa was on his way to the Olympics. But with his mother's tragic death on his mind, he threw it all away in an outburst of rage. Banned from figure skating, he and his sister move to Hokkaido. When he meets some local kids at the skating pond, they convince him to be a stand-in player for their soon-to-be-disbanded hockey team. The team has never won a game, and they're up against the local champs-but if they've got to go down, they want to score at least one goal before it's all over. Rou hasn't got a clue how to play ice hockey, but he sure knows how to skate!

As the school year comes to a close, it's time for the powerhouse Oinokami High ice hockey team to win the championship once again, but have they lost their edge? Then, after one of the biggest natural disasters in Japanese history, the people of northern Japan are determined to carry on. When the new school year starts, Rou and his friends from Miyamori enter Oinokami High School. They decide to try out for the hockey team, but before they can join, they have to survive a grueling daylong trial under the eye of the eccentric Coach Nihei.

After Oinokami's shocking loss in the championship, it's time to rebuild the team. Coach Nihei kicks things off with the fledgling team members. After a full day of exhausting dry-land training in the woods, the rookies must show what they can do on the ice. With the weight of years of tradition on their backs, can they prove to Coach Nihei and the upperclassmen that they have what it takes to fight their way back to the championship throne? And what if one of their opponents is...a bear?
