Plot

In the 21st century, the relationship between sports and technology is getting closer to the point where human testing alone couldn't catch up with the greatly fluctuating standards. As more human footballers retire due to irrecoverable injuries, people start finding a way so everyone can still enjoy football games. Among them, a research consultant only known as Professor GGO proposes an idea: a palm sized football robot with artificial intelligence. People are amused by the brilliant idea, and soon after, the development of the robots becomes the world's newest sensation.

Two years prior of the beginning of the series, Dr. Coleman, a technical consultant of GGO Football Association, set a counter strategy to stop his fellow biologist, Dr. Stan, from doing inhumane experiments for his own domination. However, while developing a new generation footballer programmed to cease Stan's plan, Professor GGO disappeared. Discovering this, Coleman split his research data and stored a half into the footballer, whose then he sent to Shanghai. He hoped that his good friend, Ball, could find a perfect person to "manage" the footballer and reach the World Tournament.

One day in Shanghai, Isaac accidentally found a footballer named Myth at Ball's seafood stall. He later discovered that Myth had a hard mission to carry. He was frustrated that his father didn't trust him and decided to prove himself by his skill. He decided to form a team with his classmates and start their pursuit into the tournament.

Human-Robot Merge

The Human-Robot Merge is introduced in Season 2 when Isaac had a very brief dream before the final match with Samba about his dad that was not specific at all. Later during the match with Samba, Isaac was able to remember the rest of his fathers instructions and was able to accomplish it.

The Human-Robot Merge occurs when Controller and Players hearts, feelings, and thoughts match and synchronize. When this happens, a resonance is formed which powers the Player with incredible strength. However, this mentally and physically hurts the controller a lot, often resulting in headaches, falling to the ground, and sweating.

So far, the only people who can accomplish the Human-Robot merge are Isaac, Shawn, Karl, Timmy, and Tyrant. The power of the Human-Robot Merge is uncontrolable, that is why only 7th Generation GGO Footballers like Myth can use it without any harm to the player. If a 6th Generation player uses it, the player after a short time will self destruct and be irrecoverable.

Absolute Bioization

In season 2, Dr. Stan was able to steal a report about the 7th generation GGO Football created by Dr. GGO and Dr. Coleman from Isaac, with this report, he was able to merge it with his human biology report to create 7th generation Bio Players and a super AI that was able to download the information about Myth and the other players who used Human-Robot Merge and he was able to create his own version of it called Absolute Bioization that only works on 7th Generation Bio players. As more and more information is gathered and downloaded about Human-Robot Merge, Absolute Bioization grows even more powerful. It is a very dangerous invention and was used by Dr. Stan to power his players against Team Barefoot in the 2nd Season. He also wanted to use it to power and sync with his robot army to take over the world through the use of GGO Technologies.
