Concept Following the seasonal publication of the YEAR BOOK, this season's edition for the Meiji Yasuda J1 League is the SEASON BOOK. With the theme of "The seriousness and true faces of the players aiming for the championship!", this book is designed to help you get to know and love the Antlers players even more. In the player introduction page "PLAYERS FILE," each player is featured across two pages, with plenty of photos that convey their "seriousness" and "true faces," creating a composition that allows you to see various aspects of them. In addition to the players' thoughts on the Meiji Yasuda J1 League, we also have "Ask Me Anything Q&A" and "TEAMMATE TALK," where you can get a glimpse of the players you never knew before. In addition, there is a special interview with Coach Toru Oniki, as well as conversations between Yuki Anzai and Ryuta Koike, and Yuto Funabashi and Keisuke Tsukui. Packed with information on stadium gourmet, the Shikao family, and academy features, this book truly encapsulates the "seriousness" and "true faces" of the Antlers. ■ Cover Concept Following the previous year's league championship, this season's book also features the faces of the coaches and players who will be competing in the Meiji Yasuda J1 League.
