The famed Kaminarimon gate in eastern Tokyo is mobbed-not with tourists, but with an unexpectedly huge throng of ETU fans! With excitement running high and Tatsumi himself making an appearance, the team's fan rally (part of the leadup to the Tokyo Derby match with their crosstown rivals) is a major success. ETU's hosting Tokyo Victory at home, and expectations are running sky-high. Can they win the Derby for the first time in ten years? They better, because if they want a shot at the title, this is one match they can't afford to lose!
ETU is clashing with their new coach's style! Neither the team nor the players have made any progress, but the coach continues to have faith! And in ETU's hour of weakness, the Brazilian trio strikes! Zelberto cuts through their lines; Carlos rushes forward; and Pepe devours! ETU is constantly on the defensive, but is it all just part of Tatsumi's trap?
After a hard-fought victory against Nagoya, ETU's got a brand-new goal on its mind-winning the championship title! Now that Tatsumi's said it out loud for the first time, the whole team is revved up…but their next opponent is Osaka Gunners, a team that's already evolved themselves to the point that they're the league's solid frontrunners. ETU's next mission: get psyched, score another win, and knock Osaka off of the top spot!
Eight matches remain in the league season, and ETU's still within arm's reach of the title-and if that isn't enough good news, Team Japan's just come knocking on their players' doors again! But somehow, their manager seems less than thrilled about this. When a team's hot, after all, that's exactly when they need to watch out for pitfalls! It's an important lesson to remember as they face off against Kofu-and against Tatsumi's former teammate Ishihama!
ETU is on a worryingly unprecedented three-game losing streak. Tatsumi silently watches on, not making any major moves...but the next day, he assembles the team for a blockbuster announcement. The soccer genius whose ETU success lasted all too short a time is making a shocking attempt at a comeback! Can his legs conjure up miracles again, and if so, how will the team react?
Sakura, coach of Montebia Yamagata, is adopting the “Komori System”—and Tatsumi was ready for it. But after an unexpected accident, the tables are turned and ETU are forced to go on the defensive! Something’s got Tatsumi’s preoccupied on the bench…but it isn’t long before he responds, with a couple of exciting new presences on the pitch!
ETU ends the first half down, completely unable to shut down the opponent's red-hot striker Pepe. Every player in the locker room struggles to fend off their depression...but as they huddle up for the second half, it's clear they're not broken yet! Now all they have to do is trust in Tatsumi's plan...and keep going!
Change needs to happen at ETU...and that change is now personified by Sugie, the new team captain. Their next match is a rainy fixture at Nagoya Granpalace, a team coached by ex-ETU manager Fuwa. He lost to them the last time around, but with their solid defense, he's not looking to repeat history. In fact, he may just change it!
This open access book considers science and empire, and the stories we tell ourselves about them. Using British Nobel laureate Ronald Ross (1857-1932) and his colleagues as access points to a wider professional culture, Empire Under the Microscope explores the cultural history of parasitology and its relationships with the literary and historical imagination between 1885 and 1935. Emilie Taylor-Pirie examines a wealth of archival material including medical lectures, scientific publications, popular biography, and personal and professional correspondence, alongside novels, poems, newspaper articles, and political speeches, to excavate the shared vocabularies of literature and medicine. She demonstrates how forms such as poetry and biography; genres such as imperial romance and detective fiction; and modes such as adventure and the Gothic, together informed how tropical diseases, their parasites, and their vectors, were understood in relation to race, gender, and nation. From Ancient Greece, to King Arthur’s Knights, to the detective work of Sherlock Holmes, parasitologists manipulated literary and historical forms of knowledge in their professional self-fashioning to create a modern mythology that has a visible legacy in relationships between science and society today.
