Inazuma eleven ares no tenbin gogoanime

Ares depicts an alternative canon following the events of the first season of the original Inazuma Eleven anime. Taking place sometime after Raimon's victory in the Football Frontier, in this alternative universe, the alien attack from the second season never occurs. Japanese soccer has been deemed weak compared to international competition. Due to this, the Raimon Eleven have been disbanded, and its members are sent to different soccer teams across Japan in the hopes of strengthening Japan's soccer at a national level. Moreover, in the modern world of Japanese youth soccer, sponsorship has become a vital aspect of a team's survival. A youth team must have a sponsor, otherwise, their club will face disbandment, and are not permitted to partake in matches.

The series focuses on the forward Asuto Inamori and his team, Inakuni Raimon, which is made up of players from the remote Inakunijima Island. They have replaced the original Raimon Eleven as Raimon Junior High's soccer team, and are competing as underdogs in the annual Football Frontier youth tournament.

Ares no Tenbin is an incredibly strong comeback for the series.
A lot of the context for this review is back in my Inazuma Eleven Reloaded review, so don’t forget to check that one out too.
The series mainly revolves around Inanuki Raimon, a team of transfer students that have been brought in the replace the separated Raimon. As far as standout characters go, none of them really do, it’s always been one of the curses of the series where the characters from the first part of any iteration are destined to be replaced for more likable and established characters as it goes on. One thing this team has going for it is their head coach, Zhao Jin Yun, Inazuma Eleven has mainly relied on having hardass serious coaches who usually have a reason behind their harsh methods, this man breaks this tired tradition by having a weird and interesting backstory involving him mastering a bunch of sports, being comedically aloof and teaching using things like drawing parallels with soccer strategies to confessing your love to a girl for example, he always manages to match every match feel fresh in regards to how Inanuki Raimon plays and is key to making their fast improvement feel very believable.
The real draw to the series really is in the opponents they face and the ones they set up to eventually join Inazuma Japan in the next Orion anime. After the first few couple of matches, excluding the ones involving Haizaki, Ares hits its stride and has powerful character arcs in every single match, in a sense, the opposing team ends up feeling more like the main characters than Raimon do, some of the already existing characters have their arcs fast forwarded while others have been fundamentally altered but still stay interesting in their own way. While not absolutely necessary, Outer Code is definitely something that should be watched as a supplement to Ares, it does a good job of hinting at what sort of dilemmas some characters will face and how the dynamics have been altered because of the retcon.
Haizaki is arguably more of a main character than even Asuto, his development is something that lasts both cours, essentially revolving around coming to like soccer even though he has only been using it as a tool to get revenge on Nosaka and the Ares no Tenbin system. What starts off as a self absorbed madman turns into an inner struggle over the idea of motive, meeting his arch-rival plants the idea of soccer being something he does because he actually likes it and the viewer gets to witness it slowly grow as he faces people with stronger convictions and as he starts to wonder what being strong even means, it all comes to a head at the final match of the first season where decides to face all these thoughts head on, making it an powerful climax purely through all the new characters its featured.
Though not given as much weight and attention as some of the other antagonists, Kidou and Gouenji play their role as those who help the new set of characters find themselves really well, how the former easily earns the trust of his new team and the way he leads Haizaki and the way the latter helps an Inanuki player find his true calling as striker re-establishes them for a new generation of fans, one’s way of strategically drawing out the best of his teammates and the other’s seemingly unbreakable confidence in himself and his skills sell why they’re going to be key members in the new national team so well.
Afuro might have very little impact in terms of plot, but he does embody makes this show incredibly valuable to the franchise, after his crushing loss to Endou, he has a conversation with an old lady over the nature of his self-proclaimed godhood and where he went wrong in the way he viewed soccer, through it, gives him a reason for his metaphorical rebirth that the original show never gave him, which he carries into the match against Inanuki Raimon. The match ends up being one of the most unique ones thematically, where it’s the main characters who end up being taught something important rather than the ones they face. Zeus, by extension because of their captain, encapsulate how revolutionizes everything: in the same way it did it with Afuro, Ares is meant to shorten arcs and make characters relevant in ways they weren’t before, yet still keep the core of what made them so special, like Aphrodite becoming a compelling figure who learns that caring for others is what makes him who he is and why he has so much fun.
The Fubuki twins were another interesting aspect of the series, the rumored unbeatable duo was mainly used to convey how they can always improve through the help of others. Atsuya initially only relies on Shirou, having very little communication going on with his other teammates, works with Nae to bring out her hidden potential and, in turn, his too, symbolized with the already powerful Double White Impact being upgraded to Triple Blizzard by her lending a hand. In essence, it keeps the core theme of drawing the best out of someone that the character of Fubuki is known for, but adapts it to make use of multiple characters with just a couple of episodes instead of making something with a long tragic backstory that requires multiple tries and a heavy dose of angst.
Tatsuya and Hiroto are arguably the best set of characters in the whole season, they have the most thought put behind their backstories, the attention to detail regarding their plays and presentation, their difference in personality. Tatsuya, formerly known as Hiroto until the retcon, has been affected the most out of anyone because of the changes, he no longer has to carry the burden of trying to be someone else, symbolized by his Ryuusei Blade not looking like The Explosion does, rather his dilemma is now trying to pull that person along with him until they're ready to run on their own. He’s still the earnest kind-hearted character he’s always been, but seeing more of him as a captain than we ever had makes him so much more than that cool dude who came back as a friend in the original Inazuma Eleven, it makes everyone from the orphanage putting their trust in him and why they rely on his presence so much understandable and something to empathize with. Hiroto, formerly known as that one kid who died, has an arc that mostly boils down to being very similar to Haizaki’s, the differences in how they’re handled is what makes it engaging. Once all is said and done, their conflict resolving results in the best moment from the whole run of the show, Hiroto learning his dad’s always cared about him in his own way and him willing to work with Tatsuya to fire off Cosmic Blaster, the best looking cut of animation in all the 26 episodes. Out of any of the characters featured in Ares, they are the ones who have seemingly reached the clearest starting line when it comes to their dream, so what they can possibly offer in Orion is nothing short of exciting.
Endou is the 2nd best thing this show has to offer, but only by very little. We’ve seen him as the main protagonist, as a supporting teacher figure, and now as an antagonist, which he pulls off in such a great way. The match against Tonegawa Tousen was in essence very different from the other matches in the series: because many of the teams didn’t have defense as strong as their offence, most of the matches ended up with over half a dozen points being scored, though only 3 goals were scored in the match with Endou. Taking what has always been the main supporting pillar of morale for the entire series and turning him into someone who our protagonists have to overcome is something most franchises can’t really hope to get far enough to pull off, so him being used this way is surprisingly gratifying. While it may just seem like a simply cool move at first glance, Fuujin Raijin carries so much more weight thematically than it seems, prior to Ares, Endou had followed his grandfather’s teachings until he was pushed to come up with Ijigen the Hand in the FFI arc, but the changes here manage to circumvent that and justify it too, Endou faced one of the best players in the world and felt the weight of it firsthand, so him wanting to come up with a power capable of going up against that is what makes that move feel so heavy, it’s him acknowledging his place as one of Japan’s representatives and how much harder he’ll have to push himself to catch up, also acknowledging his status as legend, both in universe and arguably in a meta-narrative sense too. Although not the match I’d consider the best, it’s great to see him back this way.
With this season making so many interesting protagonists to follow, Orion no Kokuin already has so much going for it, hopefully it manages to make use of them. Even if it doesn’t this season alone has been a wonderful set of gripping personal matches that showcased a bunch of varying and nuanced views about what makes soccer fun and the mindsets one can have to improve. I’m really glad Inazuma Eleven is still something I can look forward to even after all these years.

I am a very big Inazuma Eleven fan that's watching the series since it came out first time in my country in France in 2010-2011. I was super young and still I enjoyed it a lot, and when I saw it back in 2018 before Ares no Tenbin starts airing, I got in it even more, and since it became my fucking life. I actually have put a 10 at the original Ina11 series, so what the hell is wrong with Ares ?
I'll surely be comparing Ares a lot with the original series so if you haven't watch it.. Well I don't even know why you're watching Ares if you did not watch the original series.
Let's start with the story. In my mind, that's a nice story, but in the end, it feels.. not finished. Ares sure has a sequel which is Orion no Kokuin and is still airing when I'm writing this, but the story is totally different; the plot of Orion is centered on a new character, Mitsuru Ichihoshi (as of now), while the plot of Ares is centered on one of the three characters, Nosaka Yuuma. It feels unfinished and I hate that; as of the fact that when Ares was at its 10th episode, I asked myself a thousand of questions about the plot, the next of the story, that still aren't answered : who's Asuto's father that his mom's letter was teasing about, who in the end was the guy controling all the Ares programme, has he got any background story or is he just a 'bad, evil character', why did Kazemaru become so d4rk and what happened to him, and most of all, why the fuck did they tease Natsumi while she just appeared in a text Aki received in the LAST episode. The bad thing with Ares's story is the fact they took way too much episodes to talk about the soccer matches, and there is no background story when they are playing. Some hissatsus popping, here and here, and so it makes the story way less enjoyable and/or alive. Might I also say the backstories are something that almost doesn't exist in this anime. Except for the main characters (and if you call seeing Asuto as a baby a backstory), there is not a single backstory. Also, the plot is centered on only one of the three main characters; Nosaka Yuuma. The only question I got over Asuto was about his father, (as the fact of making his mother die in the FIRST episode was purely for drama and I don't understand what's different with her dead or alive) and I feel like Haizaki's backstory was so much not interesting and that the Akane part was more part of Nosaka's backstory than Haizaki's.
So about the story, I'd say nice but way not enough to just say 'good'. May it be that I still have the original series in my mind that were way better.
Ares's graphisms are really good and they look awesome. I have nothing to say about the quality. Tho, something did not please me with the graphisms. As it surely is way better drawn than the original series, the proportions are way better for their age and some things are much more satisfying, they are not that much just because we're in a Inazuma Eleven anime. I was deceived because I really thought I was going to find the old graphisms of 2010 again; and I feel like it kind of made Inazuma less enjoyable to watch. The color palettes are not the same and are less satisfying to the eye of a ~2000-born child. Here I'd say, the older the better.
Resuming, I really liked the graphisms but they do not fit a Ina11 anime..
Soundtracks are litteraly the same as in the original series and that's why I noted it that high. Only new OP and ED; I liked the two, to be honest, even tho it felt weird to have a Ina11 OP not made by T-Pistonz+KMC. It surely isn't that awesome to use the same soundtracks, but I really was gone again in the Inazuma Eleven mood because of the soundtrack; Ina11's soundtracks always sounded unique.
Character developpement is pityful. Really. I've been really deceived. Only the three main characters and Akane got a bit developped ; not even the main team. We do not know anything about 95% of the characters of these series. They're all blank characters with not-so-original designs, except for the ones that appears a little bit more than for one match, and the blank characters that got popular got to be only because they are around one of the mains. (exemple: Mizukamiya always around Haizaki) Again, they haven't took enough time to develop the character because of how many matches there are and how long they are too. Even the ones that love Ares as fuck are okay on that point; the characters are not developped at all. Hiura Kirina, that kinda was the new Kazemaru, in the end got as important as Handa in the original series. You feel like Ares's world is only composed of 4 human characters always around soccer player bots.
I did not enjoy watching Ares at all. Again : the matches. Too much. Too long. Not enough backstories. Not enough story/character development. Not enough casual life.. You feel like there is ONLY soccer matches and that's making me tired. The training sessions/story development take around 5 minutes for 15 minutes of matches in one episode. It makes everything boring and all. In the end, the only episode I truly enjoyed was the last one and it to be honest left a good image of Ares in my mind, tho it wasn't that impressive in the end. I only have watch Ina11 with GO! and CS apart from Ares, Reloaded and the Outer Codes, and EVERYTHING was way more enjoyable.. I am truly deceived by Ares.
Overall, Ares is pretty much mediocre, poor. It doesn't feel like a Ina11 anime, it's not developped at all, and it feels like match spamming for showing super-duper-not-so-badass hissatsu techniques. Also, little thought of mine ; I think taking the original Raimon team would have made this way better, because the development would have already been done and there would be more screentime for new charas/story plot..
I think Ares is only good to watch when you really have watched all the other Inazuma Eleven animes and are curious about it because nothing more to watch.. But there is clearly no interest watching it before the original series; not a single one.
(sorry if there is any English mistake in my review!)

An good recreation of the original series, I always loved Inazuma Eleven and will always give me an absurd nostalgia just to look at the characters, said that, I loved the way the players were presented in other team and with new teammates, this theme made the series kind of renew for me, unfortunately the games, which should be the most important part, they are rushed and solved in absurdly ridiculous ways, with some players making a goal without a hissatsu, which borders the ridiculous, considering that the best part of the anime are the special techniques of the characters, I would also like to see some more players with more emphasis, such as Atsuya's relationship with Shirou, anyway, good anime.

I watched all the Inazuma Eleven series so far, and I was super hyped for this one when it was announced. Even though I am much older than when I first started watching this show, Ares no Tenbin has not disappointed my expectations and I wholeheartedly enjoyed each episode so far.
Story:
The plot progresses quickly, unlike the previous series. Soccer matches and character interactions are not drawn out as they were in the previous seasons. As always, there is some shadowy force called Ares no Tenbin in the background and it is foreshadowed well in the first few episodes. The plot concerning Haizaki and his childhood friend is also intriguing and keeps me waiting for the next episode. I liked the conclusion too as Nosaka's history is revealed near the end. The story is done well for a children's show, but one part of the story really made me cringe.
In the first few minutes of episode 1, Inamori's mother dies and his soccer club is disbanded in the same day. It's ok though because the mother told him to love soccer so Inamori quickly moves past her death. Also, everything about Inamori's father makes no sense and I could not comprehend why the writers would fail so spectacularly in the area of Inamori's parents. Children would not really care about this point, but it completely disappointed me.
Art + Sound:
Characters look great. Old hissatsu wazas have new animations and they look gorgeous. The sound is a highlight of this show as always and combined with the art makes my hyped for every soccer match. Unfortunately near the end the art gets worse.
Character:
Haizaki and Nosaka are great characters, and together with the coach make the show enjoyable. The coach is eccentric, but this show has portrayed him excellently, and I enjoy whenever he is there. Goujin was a surprise hit and I liked how he got quite a lot of limelight and was well developed too. We didn't get to see much of Endou, Kidou, and Gouenji, but when they appeared I really liked it. Inamori started off very awkward but he has development afterwards, but he doesn't get anywhere close to Tenma. I also dislike Inamori's motivation to play soccer, and the whole situation with his parents. Unfortunately, the story does not flesh out the other members of Raimon; they get one episode for character development and then are tossed aside. Hyped fights such as against Hakuren, Kira Orphanage, and Endou's team were a bit of a letdown too because we didn't like the characters as much. The managers are forgettable and not as memorable as the managers in past season, especially when compared to Aoi, Haruna, and Natsumi.
Conclusion:
I enjoyed the first half well, but I didn't get as hyped for the latter matches. I still give this show an overall 8/10 because hissatsus were cool, some characters were very entertaining, and the overall plot with the Ares organization was well executed.
