The Middle School Section of Toho Academy (東邦学園中等部), Toho Academy Middle School or just Toho Academy for short, is a middle school football team that appeared in the Captain Tsubasa manga series.
Prior to the beginning of the arc, Toho had lost the national tournament finals twice in a row against Nankatsu. With Kojiro Hyuga and Ken Wakashimazu at its core, and the addition of Takeshi Sawada, the team eventually achieved the V-1 championship for the first time.
Uniforms[]
Home
Home: Black shirt with white sleeves and three black stripes, black shorts with white stripes and white socks with three black stripes.
Keeper: White shirt with pink shoulders and sleeves and the Toho kanji in red, with red trousers and white socks.
Keeper alternate: Yellow long-sleeved shirt with black polo collar and sleeve cuffs, "Toho" kanji in black, with black trousers with white stripes on the sides. This uniform is seen worn by Wakashimazu on the cover of the Volume 13 of the manga's Collectors edition, as well on Rise of New Champions as Toho Academy's away keeper uniform.
This team is known as Colegio Superior in the Latin American Spanish dub, Toju in the European Spanish dub (which is an almost phonetic rendering of the Japanese pronounciation of "Toho" in Spanish language) and Toho School in the French and Italian dubs (due to the prominence of the team's fans with the team name written on their shirts in the 1983 anime).
In chapter 63 of the manga, Konishi appeared to be Toho's opponent in the 3rd round, and their match was played simultaneously with Nankatsu - Hanawa, another 3rd round match. However, this was a mistake from the author, since according to the tournament table shown in chapter 64, Konishi could only face Toho in the 2nd round.
