(L) Eyeshield 21

[kaply]

What I don't understand about this anime was the need to actually hide Sena's identity. The anime's reasoning was that it was to prevent other teams from wanting to recruit him however at least two players outside of the team already knows his identity. It just doesn't feel like it's being explained clearly enough in the anime.

his identy was first hidden to protect him from scouts. secondly to prevent other teams knowing who he is and finding his identity because he is small and he cant really defend him self, so buy hiding his identity its hiruma way of protecting him. and also if mamori-chan found out do yo uthink she would let him.

for me the main reason why Hiruma hiding Sena face is to hide Mamori-chan know that Sena playing football. she the main problem for Sena to move-on. Hiruma also cleaver because make Eyeshield 21 more mistery and evil....

It's for intimidation. If people know Eyeshield21 is a little wimpy guy, they won't be scared of him, but if he has a mysterious identity and they build up his false character enough, people will be intimidated by him. As most people who've played sports know, mindset is half the battle.

Spoiler for the ES21 manga:

In chapter 153 of the manga, while Sena was discussing some things with another one of his rivals (geez, it's like the kid's collecting them) in the public baths, one of said rival's teammates was trying to take a peep at the women's side. Monta tackles the guy (someone's gotta protect Mamori from peeping toms, right? ), while Sena's trying to decide whether to help Monta or continue the discussion with his rival. Suzuna's comment on the noise then reminds him she's there too, and Sena tries to help Monta subdue the peeping tom. Make what you will of that.

Oh, and there's also the scene in chapter 166 where a very tired Sena falls into Suzuna's arms after a game and ends up falling asleep. I thought it was pretty cute, but I'm not really sure that indicates there's something going on there.

thnx for that, but i want to see at leaste want to see sena have more going for him then football, sure thats great ad all but i dont want them to over do it , move in a couple of sub plots to keep the character interesting(i havent read the magnas) just watched the shows.

[Cruzer]

(where can i read the magnas), Also doesnt anyone else think that there is more to hiruma then we've been told, i mean we know everyones background and story but we get nothing from hiruma, all we get is how he met cerberos his promise to make it to christmas bowl and that he trained in america, i mean it just feeels empty

The manga is licensed by Viz. Volumes 1-5 are currently out, with the following volumes announced:
Volume 6 - February 7
Volume 7 - April 4
Volume 8 - June 6

Everyone who enjoys the anime should support the series by buying the manga. It's worth the read anyway, much better than the anime imo.

[Cruzer]

thanks once again

Yup, the manga is definately better than the anime. The anime skipped a lot of the parts which the manga showed but overall (so far at least) the anime is roughly the same as the manga.

No kidding!

[Zico]

I enjoy the anime just fine, i don't know about the manga because i've never read it. But this anime is funny.

[Archmagination2002]

Alright finally the anime is going beyond the Eyeshield manga that I have. Can't wait to see whats going to happen next.. though I have peaked a little at some of the latter manga chapters..

Spoiler:

Sena meets the person who tought him how to run...(that rocket start) that person joins the Gunman. He also runs into this very strong linebacker who absolutly hates Sena because this linebackers idol is the Notre Dames Eyeshield 21. Also this is the biggest shock of all!! Sena reveals himself to MAMORI!!
