Rising Sun Pilot
Project Overview
Inspired by the popular sports anime Blue Lock, Rising Sun is an upcoming dystopian themed coming-of-age story that revolves around soccer (or football). This project will be developed using the widely recognized Roblox platform and will combine elements from both western films and Japanese anime.
When Asami Isamu is dragged into the corrupted soccer system of Shinokai City, he must fight his way up to the top. It will take more than just natural talent if he wants to prove to the world that even the underdogs can lead the pack.

Asami Isamu, the star of the show. Surprisingly, he's just your average guy. Very empathetic and upstanding, but usually keeps to himself unless necessary. In addition, he is also very passionate, loyal, and impulsive. Always sounds like he has something on his mind.
- male teen
"I’m someone who doesn’t tolerate when higher ranks pick on the lower ranks! No offense..."
"Predictable. They always cut left after a cross and push their left wing too high. A gap."
"This is my… Impossible shot…"
A calm, stoic, and wise young man. Acts like your typical care-free dad who is usually chill until it's time to get serious.
- male teen
- latin american spanish
"Sorry, don’t mind this little ball of energy here. He doesn’t understand personal space."
"Remind me why you chose to reserve the field this early?"
"Early bird gets the worm, right?"
A playful, chaotic, and unpredictable teen. He's the comic relief of the main group and the type of guy you'll never see without his signature headphones.
- male teen
- generic spanish (european)
"We need at least eleven to even be allowed to challenge the other teams, and they have what? Double our roster?"
"Name’s Roman! Nice to see a new face ‘round here!"
"Oh, so now you share?"
An introverted, methodical, and blunt young man. Your typical edgy anime character protagonist feel. He is a good leader though and can have a sense of humor! Sometimes....
- male teen
"You? The school’s crown jewel? Getting desperate much?"
"We aren’t losing. Not to you."
"Hey! Focus up Asami! Just follow our lead!"
The Applejack of the main group. Atticus is a protective, humble, compassionate, and honest young man. Radiates cowboy energy.
- american (southern)
- male teen
"Do I need to remind you all that this boy right here had the balls to step up to the academy's top dogs?"
"Give the kid a chance. He ain’t like the others."
"How could ya keep it down after a goal like that?"
Basically the Sanji of the group. Harry is arrogant, moody, and incredibly stubborn, but boy can he make some good food. When he's not complaining about the squad's stupidity, he will jump you if you bad mouth them (No one gets to bully his friends except for him).
- german
- british
- male teen
"He’s not the captain! Ryusei said offense!"
"PASS THE BALL!"
"The Wolves are already a team, stupid."
The Fluttershy of the squad. Matthew is optimistic, encouraging, incredibly emotional, and very shy (he has social anxiety disorder). He's the emotional support of the team and will do whatever he can to keep everyone and their hopes afloat.
- male teen
"Guys? I’m sure there is a better way to handle this!"
"I'm Matthew... And- thanks for standing up for us back there."
"Hey, it’s okay. You did your best!"
The Pinkie Pie of the group (despite his Rainbow Dash attire). Sho is super compassionate, incredibly hyper, and essentially the living embodiment of AuDHD. When he's not gazing into the abyss or staring at random butterflies while standing in the middle of the freaking road, he's a huge people person who loves being around friends and family.
- male teen
"How could you not never be better after that spectacularicious goal!"
"Roger dodger mister magic man!"
"Yeah! It’ll be so fun! Funfunfun!"
The quiet kid of the group. Alongside Matthew, Kyle also has social anxiety disorder. He is super quiet, suspiciously mysterious, and more introverted than Ryusei (which is a shocker). He's the kind of guy you'll see randomly staring at you from the other side of the room (he doesn't bite. Usually).
- male teen
"Could you guys keep it down..?"
"You… still have some…?"
"Not exactly a team…"
The Rainbow Dash of the group, except without rainbows. Archer is cool-headed, stoic, and a master at dry humor. He basically thinks he's the main character and demonstrates it in the most High School Musical ways possible. He lives for the thrill and excitement.
- male teen
"Careful, Harry. You just might get him to throw a tantrum."
"Why don’t we just live up to the challenge?"
"We’re a soccer team, not a children’s show."
He's just a chill guy. Mikey is loyal, protective, and incredibly adventurous. He treats his group like they're his family and is the fellow emotional support alongside Matthew.
- male teen
- black american
"Yeah, don’t get us wrong. We appreciate it, but we don’t even know you brotha."
"Aye bro. I dunno how that brain works, but you better use it."
"Asami! My man! How you ‘doin?"
The school jock except he is a bully. Jacob is incredibly arrogant, selfish, and cocky. He believes he is the king of soccer at his school and will not hesitate to put others down if it means growing his already large public image.
- male teen
"We challenge you to a match after school on the field. Winner takes it."
"Ready to lose, low ranks?"
"You guys suck so bad you got the one person who vouched for you to bail on you!?"
A kind and sweet young lady who finds interest in those who are righteous. Basically the average kind of girl you'd see around school who is just there until you get to know her.
- female teen
"Hey! Are you really going to compete against Jacob? He’s the best player at our school!"
"That’s noble of you, but have you even played soccer before?"
"What? You’ve never played before? Every kid at this school has at least some experience!"
Your typical anime antagonist. Janson is a cold and calculated tactician. He sees the world as a game of chess and will stop at nothing until he reaches checkmate. Low, gravelly voice, says "well, well, well" after turning his chair around, you name it.
- male adult
"He could be of use to us, but we’ll never be sure unless we see what he is truly capable of."
"Let him impact the dust leagues. He’s something… new. He could be a valuable asset."
"I believe it is time we start searching for our diamond in the rough again."
The right handman of Chairman Janson. Navarro is the type of guy who will always get the job done. Usually sounds calm and controlled, but deep down hides a cruel man obsessed with maintaining order and control.
- male adult
"And when the desperate forget their place, we remind them. One way or another."
"Containment is an illusion. We let them think they can play. We let them win scraps in the garbage so they never question who tossed it out."
"He is a threat to Shinokai and an anomaly. We cannot risk him becoming a symbol for the dust leagues."
The mother of Asami Isamu. Kiyumi is a kind-hearted, loving, and understanding mother (good sense of humor too). She is essentially the kind of parent to take their kid to McDonald's after a school fight as long as they won (and for just reasons). Tends to talk with obvious sarcasm.
- female adult
- american
"Ah, so he is alive!"
"Trust me, that ball will take you places you would have never thought possible."
"This is why I tell you to prepare early! What were you even doing in your room?"
Extra roles for the Rising Sun Pilot.
(Concerned) "Respectfully, letting the Dust League grow unchecked is dangerous. Every player out there… They don't just dream of surpassing every other player out there, they dream of crushing everyone by any means necessary."
(Serious) "Alright listen up! This is a rather surprising meetup, but challenges are traditional here! So let's make this quick because we don’t have all day!"
(Playful) "Yo! Yo! Yo! Hinode (Hee-No-Day) Academy! We got something unexpected today! We boutta see the BIGGEST mismatch in history! Team 1, the highest ranked team in this school, against team 17! The school's weak link!"
