For me, it's either the Bolas of the Tiger Miraculous or the lyre of the Snake Miraculous. Especially the lyre (even though it was useful in Desparada).
Technically, I could have also said the ball of the Dog Miraculous or the tambourine of the Pig Miraculous. But since Miss Hound and Pigella use their weapons to activate their powers, those are still better choices than the lyre.
One of the things I wondered was: could we have had more different teams featuring an Uncrowned King? For example, imagine if Rakuzan had only two Uncrowned Kings instead of three, and the third one was a member of a different high school team—much like Hanamiya with Kirisaki.
I've also always really liked the concept of Haizaki, a former Teiko player who was kicked off the team. I wonder if we could have had teams featuring former Teiko players—like the ones from Nijimura's year—since I've always been curious about what became of them.
At the same time, though, I understand the decision to focus on teams that include a member of the Generation of Miracles. Otherwise, it would have taken too long just to show high school teams that were inferior to the likes of Rakuzan, Tōō, and the rest.
For me, I don't think it's necessary for every move to be a hissatsu. But, I think that could have been the case, seeing as Kogure got zero hissatsu during Season 3.
Where Reize and Disarm made an effort to pass themselves off as aliens. As for Gazel and Burn, the two of them simply made no real effort to pass themselves off as aliens. Then again, it makes sense, given that we were starting to suspect they weren't actually aliens at this moment.
But Gazel is the worst—I don't see any real difference between his human form and his alien form. It's crazy; the Wild players look more alien than he does. Then again, they're Wild players... so, you know...
In Chapter 357, we see that Agi has an ego. And judging by Fox's reaction, he doesn't seem too pleased about it. To be honest, there's a chance Agi could get benched during the match. I would say there's a one in five chance.
In Chapter 356, we see England's bench. And I wouldn't be surprised if the guy next to Fox turned out to be a super-sub.
Technically, I still find it really weird that Agi wears number 20, considering he wore number 9 in the NEL. Given that the other English players wear numbers between 1 and 11, with the number 9 vacant (which could correspond to the likely English super-sub). Perhaps this number is a sort of sign showing that Agi isn't really completely part of the Fox system.
In any case, I'd say there's a chance Fox brings on at least one substitute during a match with two options for me:
1)Agi is the one getting benched, replaced by the player wearing number 9.
2)Agi isn't benched, but there is an English super-sub nonetheless, and the English formation changes drastically. Perhaps a formation with two strikers.
I'm probably thinking of one of those three, but I can see other options too.
For me, it's probably Kagami and Ogiwara. It's actually a bit of a shame that Ogiwara didn't appear in the special episode for Kuroko's birthday.
And also, Hanamiya with the Rakuzan trio, for sure. I suppose I would have liked to see the 5 Uncrowned Kings interacting all together at the same time.
Kim Eun-young, , this guy is the only first-year on the Korean team. So, he's supposed to be the youngest on the team. Yeah.. Here's another one lying about his age. Then again, Kabeyama is a first-year too, so...
Let me give you an example—let's take Belgium. If I were to come up with the worst possible hissatsu, they would probably be based on the biggest stereotypes about the country.
So, For Belgium:
-Waffle Wall
-Manneken Pis Shot
-Frite Dribble
Yeah, no... I hope there will never be that kind of hissatsus. Originally, I wanted to pick my own country, France, but we’ve already been represented in IE , so that didn’t work. Even though we could have had the Baguette Shot or the Camembert Shot. Then again, we had the poisoned baguette in Orion... so, you know...
I’m curious about this, because like any good fandom, you get some truly incredible theories—and others that make you wonder if the person has even read the manga.
For me, the worst theory is the one suggesting that the U20 World Cup arc will be skipped. Looking back, I don't know how it's possible to hold that theory, considering this arc has been teased since the end of the BL vs. U-20 arc. And the Neo Egoist League is literally the final selection of the BL Project in preparation for the U20 WC.
Personally, it’s a bit of a simple choice, but it’s surely Alya’s mom and Alix’s dad. I find it crazy that they’ve been around since Season 1 and have never been akumatized even once. But why not Nathaniel's father, too? I don't know why, but it could be interesting—you never know.
I just want to reassure myself that I'm not the only one who forgot that detail. But it's crazy how the entire Winter Cup (excluding the qualifiers) lasted only... seven days in total... That is absolutely wild. You feel like this competition lasted more than two weeks.
Out of context, on the first day, you see Akashi attempt to attack Kagami with scissors. On the seventh day, you see Akashi shaking hands with the Seirin players after the final. As the saying goes, people can change in such a short time.
To be honest, it's probably one of the most underrated matches in GO. It’s one of my favorite matches in the entire Inazuma Eleven series, and I don’t know why, but I’ve watched it way too many times.
My favorite moment is probably Shindou saving Ibuki, but also the first appearance of Rising Slash.
To be honest, as much as I like all three options, my favorite is definitely Tri Pegasus. Then again, I might prefer The Phoenix (Orion version) over Tri Pegasus. I don't know why, but I've always found the Orion version really cool (Unlike the Reloaded version ;-;)
My all-time favorite Pokémon is Sirfetch'd, and I'm so happy that Ash got one. And I'm pretty happy with how Sirfetch'd was handled in the anime; it was really cool and stylish.
I imagine that if your favorite Pokémon is Lucario, Pikachu, or Charizard... you’ve really been eating well.
On the other hand, if your favorite Pokémon is Raichu or Porygon... I just feel sorry for you. Even more so for those whose favorite Pokémon hasn't even appeared in the anime.
Re-reading the manga, I had forgotten just how late Akashi was actually introduced in the series. I suppose that makes sense, given that he’s essentially the manga’s final boss, but I’d forgotten what a long wait it was before his first real introduction at the Winter Cup.
But I think it was fine, considering Akashi actually gets quite a bit of screen time—especially since Rakuzan vs. Seirin is the longest match in the manga, plus all the Teiko scenes. So, I don't mind that he was introduced so late.
On the other hand, Murasakibara... he’s definitely the least developed of the five Generation of Miracles members. He only has one match with Yosen, and—aside from Akashi—he’s the one introduced latest (without getting nearly as much screen time as Akashi). It's also due to the fact that we didn't see any matches involving Yosen or Rakuzan during the Inter-High. I'm actually kind of glad we got to see a bit more of Murasakibara in Extra Game.
To be honest, the first time I saw that hissatsu in the anime... I thought to myself: "What the hell is this?" And then I also remembered that this is the same scene where Tatsuya got injured. Man, it's wild that the writers chose to have him get hurt while trying to stop Flash Dance...
I'll be honest, I don't hate that hissatsu all that much. But I'm just glad Flash Dance only appeared in a single match in the anime.
To be honest, I imagine it wouldn't make much of a difference. Even if they featured high schoolers instead of middle schoolers, the storylines of Alius Academy, Chronos Stone, and Galaxy would remain just as "WTF."
I imagine some of the player designs would make more sense if they were high schoolers instead of middle schoolers... Then again... even if you told me the Qatar defenders were high schoolers... I still would have tried to run some age verification checks.
Then again, I think it's because in most of the other sports anime I've watched, the protagonist was a high school student (which is crazy when you think about it—it’s almost as if high school is the peak of your career). But then again, Inazuma Eleven isn't exactly a typical sports anime. I suppose that's fine—it's part of the series' charm.
I'm talking about that panel which serves as a bit of an introduction to the England U20 team that showcases the squad's players (Also, it's a bit of a shame that France and England didn't get real intro panels like Nigeria or the NEL clubs).
Anyway, the point is that panels like this aim to highlight key players on the opposing team. In this case, the players being highlighted are Agi and the new English players—such as Childs, Skelton, Achanpong, Niang, and Goodman. Meanwhile, the Manshine City NPCs—such as Rooke, Swift, Arthur, and Damon—remain in the background (since they are players we have already seen, and they are likely the weakest players on the England U20 squad).
Yet Teddy is also in the background, even though he’s their star player (perhaps to symbolize his role as a puppet with no ego). Or maybe I'm overinterpreting—that's also possible. It's just that, in a panel like this, I really can't picture characters like Onazi, Hugo, and Loki in the background.
I have to admit I'm surprised. I believe the only "UK" members who actually appeared were Kiyoshi and Hanamiya (once they were already in high school) and Murasakibara mentioned them one time. Otherwise, nothing else.
Their opponents were primarily players who appear only during the flashback, such as the Genius Twins or Inoue.
