(No fantastical equipment, mind but enough specialty to make you want to continue watching.) That said, animation is definitely decent for this series.Įntertainment/Replay Value : This is something I wouldn’t mind watching more than once. Who would want to watch realistic football for 145 episodes? Nah, this is where you see special moves like those in DBZ like Sena’s Devil Bat Ghost, Kid’s Rapid Fire Throw. The animation is more than adequate for the heart pumping football action scenes. Eyeshield does a decent job of fitting its sound to its action scenes. The BGMs were great, the Ops and EDs were equally great. Sound and Graphics: Nothing too shabby here.

Now come to think of it, you don’t watch a sports series too much for the plot as more for the character development and anime action. Between moments of drama and football action is raucous comedy which borderlines on the absurd (cough Hiruma gun toting blackmailer), yet makes it more funny all the same. It’s 145 episodes does more than enough to advance the adrenaline pumping scenes of the matches. But this is all you need to watch Eyeshield. Plot: Well, its straightforward enough: team has a dream, team wants to go to Christmas Bowl, team must defeat rival teams, team must work together, team must train, then team must win. There’s not fun in watching perfect characters now is there? And so yes, the characters of Eyeshield are not just comedic, but serious, dramatic, and all the time flawed in some way or another. You cannot but feel for the other characters such as the quarterback of the Zokugaku Chameleons whose delinquent team cannot hold themselves together. To tell the truth, I don’t even think that the supporting characters were even ‘technically 2nd tier’. The rivalry between Sena and Shin is also nonclichedly carried out, and all the supporting characters get their own backstory as well. From Sena’s traditional shonen perserverance, to Hiruma’s demonic avarice (and he will become your favorite as well), Eyeshield 21 does a masterful job of designing to characters to both appeal to viewers and to transition their interactions with each other smoothly. And…Hiruma will send you to hell if you don’t watch this.Ĭharacters: To put it simply, there is nothing bland about Eyeshield’s cast.
Heck, its even sponsored by the Japanese NFL and received backing in the United States as a football series on a sports channel. (And if you liked this series but found it either too long, or a bit childish, definitely check out Cross Game, a highly underrated sports series that is on a whole different maturity and story level.)Įyeshield 21 is definite shonen sports anime. As he interacts with his teammates, Sena gradually gains more self-confidence and forges valuable bonds along the way. The legendary Eyeshield 21 can supposedly run at the speed of light and has achieved remarkable feats in the United States during his time at the Notre Dame College.Īccustomed to avoiding his problems in the past, Sena's specialty might just help him become the new secret weapon of the Deimon Devil Bats. After the cunning Youichi Hiruma-captain of the Deimon Devil Bats football team-witnesses Sena's rapid legs in motion, he coerces the timid boy into joining his squad.Īs Hiruma wants to conceal Sena's identity from other clubs, Sena is forced to hide under the visored helmet of "Eyeshield 21," a mysterious running back wearing the number 21 jersey. However, as a result of running errands throughout his life, Sena has become agile and developed a skill for avoiding crowds of people. Shy, reserved, and small-statured, Deimon High School student Sena Kobayakawa is the perfect target for bullies.
