After a while, Shinryuji goes with a run, which in reality is a trap. Sanzo back passes to Agon just as Sena rushes up. Because of Sena's intense concentration on Agon, Sena somehow sees the football, even though it is in his blind spot, and knocks it away with a superhuman jump to the side. Everybody goes for the ball, and Jumonji manages to get it, thanks to Kurita. As he runs with the ball, Agon catches up and stops him. Jumonji, realizing what Sena had to go through, takes one more step and crosses the goal line. It seems that everything will be all right, but then Sena's legs start to have problems, and Doburoku cools them down with an ice pack. In the meantime, Unsui notices that Agon has acknowledged Sena as a rival, and thinks that it is great.

At the beginning of the episode Shin comments that even though each individual in Deimon is lacking, as a team they are already regarded as the strongest in Kanto, hinting the result of the game. This episode centers around Monta's individual battle with Ikkyu. Monta wins Ikyu in an aerial battle by snatching the ball away from him in mid-air, and scores a touchdown by successfully catching a long pass. Ikkyu finally admits Monta as a rival but still states that the 'Number One' in Kanto is still himself. Monta's successful touchdown brought back a momentum to the Devil Bats. Near the end of the episode Agon shows his true strength by imitating Sena's Devil Bat Ghost and passing Sena with it, proving the reign of natural physical talent such as himself as compared to the Sena who had completed the move by intensive training. Sena's knee starts hurting after he used Devil Bat Ghost too many times and caused an 'act' incident between Hiruma and Musashi about the future of a sports player. In the next play, Eyeshield 21 intercepts Unsui's 'Tranquil Reflections' by abandoning the post of defending the prodigy, Agon.

Agon chops Sena's arm away, and then tries to stop Sena, who uses the Devil Bat Ghost to get away. Agon chases after Sena, who suddenly realizes that the God Speed Impulse will not work on something Agon cannot see, so he pushes down on Agon's helmet in his blind spot. Sena actually slams Agon's head into the ground and scores a touchdown, making the score 35-28.
117'Time Out Zero'

Within those 4 seconds, Hiruma distracts the other team by causing an uproar in the audience. When it looks like Hiruma is getting the crowd worked up this sets him in motion and the ball is directly snapped to Sena. He runs it but gets covered by Agon. Sena then tosses the ball in the air and Hiruma catches it and scores by running it past Agon. The score is now 35 to 34. Touchdowns are worth 2 points now and kicks are worth one. With no chance to win in a tiebreaker, they must score a touchdown on the last play. Hiruma takes the ball and runs towards the Shinryuji defense line. He throws the ball in the air and Sena catches it and scores a touchdown, which wins the game 35 to 36.

Transcription: 'Saigo no Setsuna' (Japanese: 最後の刹那)		March 12, 2008[4]

Shin successfully made the final touchdown for White Knights, making the score 27-22 to the White Knights. When all is lost, it was revealed that Yukimitsu gained one last second for the Devil Bats by pushing Shin into the end zone. This means that the Devil Bats have to steal the Ball from the White Knights and score a touchdown - all in one go; if Sena gets tackled, then all is over.

The play starts and all is well until Monta gets the ball and is surrounded by some White Knights. Hiruma calculates their chances (0%) if he cannot get Sena to go near Monta & receive the ball or if Monta can pass the ball to Sena(which is impossible with Monta's lack of passing skills).

Then Sena breezes past Hiruma which gives Hiruma an idea. He shouts at the nearby boys to gather with Monta. Hiruma, Monta, Sena and Taki gather in a tight midfield huddle and then break out of the huddle in different directions, confusing the White Knights and Takami. Eyeshield 21 is shown with the ball while surpassing all opponents except Shin. The episode ends in freeze-frame showing Sena and Shin charging towards each other.

The omake shows a young Sena learning how to run with Riku. Shin suddenly breezes past Sena to give a man who dropped a coin from his car a few blocks back his money. Both Sena and Shin get a strange sense of premonition and stare at each other from across the street.

Transcription: 'Minna Amefuto Yarouze!' (Japanese: みんなアメフトやろうぜ!)		March 19, 2008[4]

With time running short, Sena has the ball and runs to the endzone and Shin charges him head-on. Sena manages to get through Shin but he catches up and manages to knock Sena down with two fingers. Sena manages to get one hand on the ground to bounce back up. With the Devil Bat Dive running at 4.2 seconds, Sena uses Shin's Trident Tackle to go 4.1 seconds and gets the touchdown that wins the game. The next match will be Deimon against the Dinosaurs and the winner will go to the Christmas Bowl. Eight to nine years later, Sena is on a team with colors of grayish purple with a yellow lightning bolt. On getting the touchdown in the first few seconds Sena notices Hiruma on the opposite team. The series ends with Hiruma shouting 'Everyone! Let's play American Football! Ya-Ha!'

Eyeshield 21 (Japanese: アイシールド21Hepburn: Aishīrudo Nijūichi) is a Japanese manga series written by Riichiro Inagaki and illustrated by Yusuke Murata. The series tells the story of Sena Kobayakawa, an introverted boy who joins an American football club as a secretary, but after being coerced by Yoichi Hiruma, turns out to play wearing an eyeshield and the number 21, under the pseudonym of 'Eyeshield 21'. Inagaki chose American football as a central subject of Eyeshield 21 after realizing that it fit perfectly with his idea for the series.

The manga was originally serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump from July 2002 to June 2009. The series consists of 333 chapters collected in 37 tankōbon volumes. An anime adaptation consisting of 145 television episodes was co-produced by TV Tokyo, NAS, and Gallop. The television series first aired on Japan's TV Tokyo network from April 6, 2005, to March 19, 2008. The Eyeshield 21 franchise has spawned two original video animations (OVAs), audio albums, video games, and other merchandise.

In North America, the manga was released by Viz Media from April 2005 to October 2011. The anime series was later licensed in North America by Toonami Jetstream as a joint effort with Viz Media and aired on December 17, 2007, on its site, but before its completion, the streaming service was shut down. The whole series was streamed in English by Crunchyroll, while Sentai Filmworks licensed the series, with distribution from Section23 Films on DVDs.

In Japan, the Eyeshield 21 manga has sold over 20 million volumes. The manga and anime have been featured at various times in weekly top ten lists of best-selling in their respective media. The anime has been watched by a large number of television viewers in Japan, helping to raise American football's popularity in the country. Publications for manga, anime, and others have commented on Eyeshield 21, which received positive comments for its artwork and characters, and negative responses to its non-football scenes.

Plot[edit]

In Tokyo,[note 1] a weak, unassertive boy named Sena Kobayakawa enters the high school of his choice—Deimon Private Senior High School. Sena's only remarkable physical abilities are his running speed and agility, which are noted by the school's American football team captain Yoichi Hiruma. Hiruma forces Sena to join the Deimon Devil Batsfootball team as its running back. To protect his identity from other teams who want to recruit him, Sena is forced to publicly assume the role of the team secretary and enter the field under the pseudonym of 'Eyeshield 21' wearing a helmet with an eyeshield to hide his features. The makeshift team initially takes part in the spring football tournament hoping to win through the strength of their new 'secret weapon'. However, the extremely weak team is eliminated early by the Ojo White Knights, one of the best football teams in Japan.

After Deimon's defeat, the spring tournament is revealed as secondary in importance to the fall tournament, where the teams compete for the chance to play in the Christmas Bowl—the high school football league championship. Hiruma, Ryokan Kurita, and Sena regroup and slowly build a real team from misfits and students looking to define themselves, such as Tarō 'Monta' Raimon—a baseball player who can only catch—and the Ha-Ha Brothers. Other characters slowly join the team, and the series follows the building and growth of the Deimon Devil Bats and its members, and rival teams as they all strive to achieve their goal of playing in the Christmas Bowl.

Some time after the Deimon Devil Bats win the Christmas Bowl and they become the best team in the country, Japan begins to gather the best football players to form a team to represent it at the American Football Youth World Championship, where a Most Valuable Player (MVP) will be awarded an NFL contract and $3 million. Team Japan reaches the final against Team America, in which the game ends as a tie, and both teams are declared winners. Both teams are unsatisfied with this and return to the field for their own, improvised 'overtime', causing chaos with officials. It is unclear which team wins the unofficial extra period, but Panther of Team America holds the MVP trophy aloft, winning the professional contract with the San Antonio Armadillos.

The series concludes with Sena becoming the captain of the Devil Bats after Hiruma and Kurita leave school to attend college. In his final year of high school, Sena is invited to Notre Dame High School. In the final chapter, the main characters are in college or playing amateur-league football while employed.

Production[edit]

Before the series was published regularly, Riichiro Inagaki and Yusuke Murata published two one-shots called Eyeshield Part 1 (前編Zenpen) and Part 2 (後編Kōhen) on March 5 and 12, 2002 in Weekly Shōnen Jump.[4][5][6] When it would become a serial, the editorial department asked if Inagaki wanted to both write and draw the series, but Inagaki felt he was 'so rookie'.[7] So he asked Murata to be the illustrator. Before being asked to work on Eyeshield 21, Murata had read some of Inagaki's manga and noted that they 'had many cool design concepts of uniforms and equipment'. He said, 'it could be turned into a great manga story' and he would 'be happy to take the challenge'; eventually he was chosen.[8]

During Eyeshield 21's original run in the magazine, Inagaki went to the United States to see college football matches,[9] and National Football League games.[10] Despite having never played American football, Inagaki chose this theme after deciding that he wanted to create 'a protagonist that was wimpy at the beginning, yet could perform outstandingly in a sports game', and with this premise in mind he decided that American football would be 'a very suitable material.'[8] When originally creating Eyeshield 21, Inagaki said he was wary because he did not want his manga becoming 'a simulator of football'.[11] The fact that football is not a popular sport in Japan also worried Inagaki. As last resort, he thought to turn the series into a 'Kamen Rider-style masked hero story' if it could not met the popularity required for the magazine.[12]

Popularity[edit]

The manga has sold more than 20 million copies in Japan;[120] individual volumes frequently appeared on top ten lists of best-selling manga there (see table). Individual volumes have appeared in Diamond Comic Distributors's lists of 300 best-selling graphic novels in North America several times.[121][122][123] In 2011, the Japanese website Ameba conducted a 'Top 10' online web poll of the 'Best Shōnen Jump Manga of the 21st Century' and Eyeshield 21 was placed seventh,[124][125] although in another poll of the best Shōnen Jump titles that the readers nonetheless did not want to continue reading, Eyeshield 21 ranked twentieth.[126] The anime adaptation was also featured several times in Japanese television rankings,[127][128] with the first episode having a 7.5 percent television viewership rating.[129] In 2006, Japanese television network TV Asahi conducted a poll for the top hundred anime, and Eyeshield 21 was placed 47th.[130] Moreover, Eyeshield 21's series is credited with increasing the number of Japanese teenagers playing American football.[131][132]

Reviews[edit]

Critics have generally given the Eyeshield 21 manga positive reviews. Deb Aoki from About.com wrote that tying with Bleach, Eyeshield 21 was the best continuing shōnen manga of 2007, because it 'has well-written characters, dynamic artwork, nail-biting cliffhangers, plus a winning mix of comedy, action and drama'.[133] On the 2008 list, Aoki listed Eyeshield 21 as the best continuing shōnen, as it was able to '[come] into its own' from other shōnen series.[134] In that same year, Pop Culture Shock's Sam Kusek elected it the best continuing manga series.[135] Chris Zimmerman of Comic Book Bin was positive on his review of the volumes 30–33; he affirmed it is 'one of the best shonen titles out there' and described it as 'a superb series, with well developed characters, intense action, and touching humor.'[136] Scott Campbell of Active Anime commented it is an 'action-filled' series with great artwork and humor, and that it 'has managed to continually get more and more dynamic with each volume'.[137]

Jarred Pine from Mania.com praised the humor and how the creators 'bring out the energy and excitement of the game for the readers'.[138][139] June Shimonishi reviewing for School Library Journal, wrote that it 'delivers a fresh and entertaining take on all the standard sports clichés'. She also said that its art is 'superb ... with every inch filled with details and no gag left unseen'.[140] Zac Bertschy from Anime News Network (ANN) declared Eyeshield 21 'defies convention' by turning what most might consider 'a really ridiculously bad idea' into 'something most everyone would be able to enjoy'.[141] Carlo Santos from ANN called it a 'typical sports story', writing that what make it an above average series are its characters and artwork. He also wrote that people who think American football is boring 'may change their minds after seeing the action sequences in Eyeshield 21.'[142] Later, Santos said, '[a] lot of familiar clichés show themselves' in Eyeshield 21, and that '[t]he storyline also does a sloppy job of keeping track of the game ... making it even less believable than it already is'.[143] However, overall, he considered the story has good art, action and pace, featuring 'pure sports storytelling at its finest'.[143]

The anime adaptation of Eyeshield 21 received positive and mixed responses. Bobby Cooper from DVD Talk praised how the rules of American football are 'explained to a foreign audience that has no clue what it's all about', adding that instructions at the commercial breaks 'were informative and similar to the Go lessons of Hikaru No Go.' He also said the explanations was 'hilarious', but that 'Eyeshield 21 is an excellent introduction to football'.[144] The on-field action was also praised, with he saying the sports action is 'where Eyeshield 21 truly shines', although he criticized the scenes away from the football field, 'the pacing slows to a crawl and the storyline gets a little boring'.[145] In her review, Erin Finnegan from Anime News Network stated, '[t]he pace of Eyeshield 21 is its saving grace. It's way less boring than all the time outs and commercial breaks in a regular NFL game. Football is hard to understand, but Eyeshield 21 explains the Byzantine rules ... in an entertaining way. We're never left waiting for the ref's decision for long minutes like in real life. A lot of dramatic tension carries the action between plays.'[146] Finnegan also criticized the artwork, saying, 'any episode [of the show] without a game is clearly farmed out to an inferior animation studio'.[147] Chris Beveridge from Mania Entertainment wrote that Eyeshield 21 'has a good solid story idea, showing a young man finding his way through sports by finding friends and realizing he has potential, but it is so sidelined so often that it's frustrating to see it deal with situations as it does.'[148]

Notes[edit]

  1. ^Inagaki said that Eyeshield 21 is set in Tokyo, 'but perhaps not in the center of the city—more in the suburbs.' He added that this is 'not very significant' and that aspects of the two creators' hometowns are reflected in the setting.[3]
