    Let's reach the heavens with our   rainbow-coloured hopes and dreams.
Welcome to my Inazuma Eleven GO shrine!
The way I talk about this series might sound a little bit overly sentimental, so if you want to laugh then that's okay! Nonetheless, these are my sincere feelings. If you take the time, then I hope you can enjoy. I hope this could inspire someone to make a shrine similar...♡

Summary & My Introduction to the series:

Inazuma Eleven GO (イナズマイレブンＧＯ) is the direct sequel to Inazuma Eleven, taking place ten years after Inazuma Japan won the Football Frontier International tournament. Japan's reputation with soccer increased remarkably during this time, leading to an organisation known as Fifth Sector to begin controlling the sport across the country. The story follows Matsukaze Tenma, and the Raimon team as they lead a revolution to bring back the real soccer they love. It has both a 3DS game and anime series.

Despite being a big fan of the original Inazuma Eleven, I put off starting the sequel series for quite some time. This was up until Christmas Day 2014, when I was gifted a copy of Inazuma Eleven GO. It's a very clunky, early-era 3DS game, with an unusual story and one of the most bizarre English dubs I've ever experienced. Somehow, right from the beginning, I fell in love with every little thing. I seriously adore the characters in this series. Although this page has some focus on GO1, I'm also a huge fan of Chrono Stone and Galaxy. They'll both be mentioned here as well.
Our protagonist of the series. Tenma is a bit unusual, always stands up for what he believes in, and can express his feelings by humanising his very favourite sport (which causes some ire towards him in the beginning of the series.) He has a talent when it comes to dribbling the ball, as he was never able to join a team before and spent his time playing alone or with his dog instead. He's a very nice and cheerful boy, who eventually becomes the new captain of the Raimon soccer team.

Tenma is a character that I love collecting merchandise of, and my in-real-life shrine can also be found documented on this site. Feel free to take a look!
I've been casually collecting Tenma's merch for over ten years now. ♡

  Why do I love Tenma?

Loaded question I've given myself! I'll try to keep it brief... Tenma is a character that I've felt a connection to ever since I was a teenager, he inspires me to do my best and be myself no matter what happens. I think some people can write him off as a soft little uwu boy, but he's very strong-willed and holds extremely strong values and convictions. I really like this alongside his awkwardness and empathic nature. It's really endearing to me... His design is very cute. I love his wind theming. He turns into a horse- I could keep going. I like how his character explored the fact you can be a good leader without typical leadership qualities. Tenma isn't totally careless; he has concerns and worries, and things he knows he can't do as well as others, but despite it he always carries on believing things will work out somehow, and I appreciate that.
HOLY ROAD
DECEMBER 2011
Discussed in detail over the page, but this is my favourite in terms of the story. I really enjoy stories where characters fight against impossible odds. The concept of a bunch of junior high schoolers taking down a cult is just wonderful. I love both the anime and game equally, and although the games had a lot more depth to them, I think the Dragon Link match in the anime is done just perfectly.
CHRONO STONE
DECEMBER 2012
I prefer the game to the anime! Exploring all the different time periods was a lot of fun there. This game has a side feature which acts as a LINE chat between the characters and it's the best thing ever. I appreciate that Chrono Stone goes off-the-walls crazy without restraint. This is the game I've played for the most time out of the three.
GALAXY
DECEMBER 2013
I'm a rare Galaxy lover. The characters have fursonas. I love the new cast in this one, they're really funny in this games version of the LINE chat. Mirroring Chrono Stone, I actually prefer the ending in the anime adaptation to the game, but both are really great. I always knew Inazuma Eleven as "the sports series with aliens", so seeing a series with ACTUAL aliens this time felt like a great send-off. I can appreciate Inazuma Eleven when it's more grounded, but it wouldn't be the same without the bizarre-factor. I think GO went all-out with this. The anime has such awesome ending songs.

      TENKYOU MY BELOVED

    Okay, so I actually don't have many ships at all, but this one's had me in an iron grip for many years now and remains my one and only true pairing. I really enjoy Tenma and Tsurugi as "super best friends" as Sakura calls them in Galaxy, and how their relationship is very two-sided. I don't know what to say. They're like if two autistic girls fell in love. I hope they can remain super best friends and exist peacefully for the rest of time. I'll add more of my thoughts on my headcanons page.
