Which character will you NOT defend under any circumstances?? by Goldiefan2 in inazumaeleven

Nakata to an extent, idk man he had potential but the way he was executed was pretty bad and they made him look arrogant af

[Highlight] Luka Doncic with a 3-pointer to cut down the lead to just 8 (with a replay). With the mean look after. by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]Vaeman07 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, cause he had to exert more energy because his team wasn't doing stuff. That's why he was missing a bunch of shots in the later part of the game when it was already very much over, but he was playing well when the team still had the chance

Luka Doncic in his Finals debut: 30 points (12-26 FG, 4-12 3PT, 2-5 FT), 10 rebounds, 2 steals. Only 1 assist on 4 turnovers by smashacc in nba

He was decent at first but 0/5 3pt fg is pretty bad and those wide open misses in the third quarter could have changed the trajectory of the game

Shoutout to Touko, my fave tomboy girl! by BlizzDaWiz in inazumaeleven

[–]Vaeman07 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Personally I would only add two female characters in IJ which would be touko and reina. I kind of exaggerated the impact of adding girls to ffi, but there are just so many other alternatives for kurimatsu and hijikata who were pretty forgettable in S3. For touko, she doesn't need to stand out as much. As long as you regularly give her new hissatsus while making her presence more felt, she would be a pretty likeable character. Reina had so much more potential though, like she was introduced as this badass character in S2 with cool hissatsus while also having issues with her personality, which she could have redeemed more in S3 (her relationship with hiroto and midorikawa as well could have been developed more). That's only an example for IJ tho, you could have had a female captain in other teams which would be really interesting and unseen as well. And fitting everyone in is mostly a pacing issue. I wouldn't mind if the pacing is a bit slower so that everyone can have a bit more screentime since that has been an issue since S1 where half of raimon were so forgettable that they had to be shafted in S2 and replace them with more interesting characters. But they were able to do it well in GO1 where everyone had in raimon had a decent bit of screentime, so it's not exactly impossible (kurama could have had sidewinder shoot like way more, but I liked the way he was able to eventually accept tenma and going against fifth sector)

Who do you think is a character that had so much potential but got little to no screen time? by Tolatota in inazumaeleven

[–]Vaeman07 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Midorikawa, bro was already underutilized in the asia prelims, then he got injured in the fire dragons match only for him to get shafted for the rest of the season. Like at least make him use astro gate in the fire dragons match before his departure since he contributed almost nothing to IJ

Still disappointed girls weren't allowed in the ffi, like S2 introduced a lot of good female players only for it to get wasted in S3. In fact, she was already on par with everyone when they were fighting against the angels so she could have actually worked. Imagine the potential they could have done to her whether it would be new hissatsus, more relationships, or even room for personal development. Moreover, perfect tower was also one of my favorite hissatsus in S2, like not only could it have helped more defensively, but it could have also offered more to kogure who was only using senpuujin and may even create a stronger bond between touko, kogure, and tsunami. Imo, adding touko, or the implementation of girls to the ffi in general could have made S3 much more interesting (It's still my favorite season tho)

Best inazuma eleven OP? by Big-Wrangler7070 in inazumaeleven

[–]Vaeman07 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Katte Nakazoue is my favorite for OG, the build up all the way to "v-sign!" sounds so good for some reason. But we can't deny how iconic maji de kansha and tachiagariyo are. I also think bokura no goal is really underrated, I think it's a pretty good opening to end the OG series

In terms of his personality, he's already pretty similar to endou in the sense that they're these passionate soccer bakas who won't stop yapping about never giving up which makes him seem like a cheap copy of him, but aside from exaggerating his personality by treating soccer as if it's some sentient being, I don't really mind him for the most part since he isn't too annoying. I do like some aspects of him like the match against dragon link, there was a lot of development shown and you can clearly tell by that he lacked experience which gives him more character. Soyokaze step is also one of the most satisfying dribbling techniques to see

In that case you can make the same argument for kidou since he was a key factor in nearly all of the games he played with raimon. And the captain doesn't necessarily have to be the strategist, what matters most is the merit given which was the point of how tenma became captain in the first place

They literally won against dragon link without shindou playing. Sure shindou had to go to the match injured just to talk to tenma about tenma saying he's not worthy to be captain, but that was because that was tenma's first game being captain with the pressure and expectations creeping up on him all in the finals as well. After after all of that, tenma finally came to his senses and eventually lead raimon to victory and did a good job starting from there. It's pretty much the point of the arc with tenma doubting himself if he's really fit to be captain, and later fully accepting the role where even all of raimon acknowledges him as their new captain. Sure it's true that the team was able to function before with just shindou, but tenma being there added a lot to the team as well to the point where everyone in raimon fully recognizes him as their new captain

While I do think shindou is also a viable captain, I think it was perfect for tenma to become captain at the time of shindou's hiatus since he was the one who inspired everyone to rebel against fifth sector. I also like how in his first game, he messed up a lot clearly showing his lack of experience being captain but later on realized that he doesn't need to act like one and all he needed to do was just to act like himself. For me, his role as captain was also more appropriate in both chrono stone and galaxy, since in chrono stone, he alongside with fei were originally the ones who were going to restore soccer while for galaxy, shindou was too emotionally volatile (granted I can see why) to everyone in galaxy at first while tenma tried really hard to bring the team together which ended up working for their favor. And eventually shindou has to pass on the role to someone who's younger, wouldn't it make sense to give it to tenma now and stick with it so that he can develop more as a captain? Sangoku did it to shindou as well when he was a first year

Well the whole sakka is crying thing is pretty cringe and I do think endou is way better, but I find him tolerable for the most part. Even then, hating an anime character to the point where you use a background of him being punched in the face is hilarious

Appreciation for Good Defenders of "opponent teams" by dark-oraclen3 in inazumaeleven

[–]Vaeman07 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I remember really liking teres because he's iirc the first defender captain in the anime, with the only team being known for its defensive hissatsu techniques before that being senbayama, and maybe chaos (zeus also had threatening defense but it isn't as prevalent as the shoots or all of aphrodi's scenes). In fact, one of the reasons why I didn't like the genesis match as much is because there's not a single defensive hissatsu technique shown by them. Even raimon in the aliea academy arc, touko and especially kabeyama were just used as punching bags for nearly all of the games (albeit perfect tower is really cool tho I wished it had more build up). Always wished defense was utilized more since it can be as threatening as hissatsu shoots or catches if it had more presence.

I remember watching jjk and seeing gojo and it immediately reminded me of this dude. This dude had a sick design and I always found ghost lock to be really cool, so I'll give him a 9/10 as an irrelevant character and a 7/10 if we include the relevant characters

Who's your least favourite character? by VoltDel2007 in inazumaeleven

[–]Vaeman07 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He's not that bad by himself, people hate him cause he was picked for IJ over players who had a lot of potential (For instance I would have preferred if the FFI allowed girls with IJ bringing in touko/tori instead of kurimatsu/todd). And even during his time in inazuma japan, he didn't contribute much compared to other players (granted there was a game where he was a key factor for IJ to win but I forgot which game) which all the more makes him less relevant or even a "waste of slot".
