Inazuma Eleven GO
Short Synopsis: Our lead character wants to play football.
So, on one hand this is a typical kiddie show: we live in a world which is entirely dedicated to football, we have a random teenager who has a simple personality yet a lot of passion for the sport, and there are evil people who abuse their superpowers in order to… close down a school’s football club. Oh, and we live in a world where footballs are like boomerangs: they always come back no matter where you kick them. In terms of that, this was a very formulaic episode. Nevertheless, it’s been a while since I saw the opening episode of a kiddie show actually being able to build up tension this well. This episode was quite silly, especially the guy who was supposed to be the bad guy, but I’ve certainly seen worse kiddie shows. The most notable of it all was that the dramatic scenes actually worked despite the cheese.
OP: Sung by a guy who is really trying to compensate for the fact that he can’t sing.
ED: Generic J-Pop
Potential: 35%
Some Quick First Impressions: Inazuma Eleven Go
Snort you haven’t even seen the soccer-playing aliens. But that was Inazuma Eleven, and Inazuma is a fun, exhilarating, and enjoyably ridiculous soccer anime.
GO, I hope, will create excellent tension and drama between the characters. (Heyyy as long as those matches will put a smile on my face…then again it isn’t as lighthearted guh.)
ENDOU-KANTOKU WHERE.
…Oh who am I kidding? I’ll take Inazuma GO a biiit more seriously once I can confirm that the main cause of death won’t be some car accident.
Well…He is not that random teenager.At least he was saved by gouenji in the past.
And the thing only make me see potential where this series will go to.XD (The op song..Tenma de todoke too). And look at the cloaked man…From that factor only.I can see many tension and drama that will come in the future.Hope so? Haha+
Don’t talked about the scale of the battle in this sequel.Look like it doesn’t end only in the school or in the world cup.Maybe It will lead to the battle with large organization that isn’t something sound a bit silly like aliens. And before they come to the true battle. Problem in the team should be cleared first.Interesting to see what’s going on from here!
If you have time psgels.I recommended you to watch the original series to the end of the alien arc.At least you will know most of the background of the main character.Or you’ll read wiki instead.I think it’s not that much different.But I think you should know.
ps.@kiseki I heard the rumors from the 2ch board that endou-kantoku will be appeared in ep6.We should wait and see. ^_^
LOL! Why you start blogging the 4th season. I suggest you watch the first 3 seasons to understand what’s going on in GO. By the way, please keep in mind it’s not soccer, it’s a kiddie show about shota(s) with supernatural power battling each other using a soccer ball XD. Keeping this in mind will make you enjoy the show a bit better.
PS. Inazumi share the same world with Danball Senki, so it’s in the future(therefore anything is possible LOL).
@inkka : Arrgh!! Another month of waiting?!
@kiri Well…The thing that make me suspect the most about this rumor is they didn’t show Endou-kantoku in the OP at all.Too much mystery here.
It’s not a new season, but an entirely new show. && You can’t exactly call those “seasons” but rather, they’re arcs so to speak.
…At the moment I could care less about Endou. I just want confirmation on who his wife is since Hino’s hint was so darn cryptic.
And, that is true. If Danball Senki and Inazuma Eleven really DO share the same world, then InaEle GO takes place after 2060. Might actually be 2070. It gets confusing when you try to make sense of it using the movie time and the Future time.
Because in 2140 (Inazuma Eleven Future), they place soccer…in space!! Which Level-5 scrapped for GO…!! Like how Level-5 scrapped Ushiro for Time Travelers…!! Stop working on so many things at once, Level-5…!!
