Libero?
I see that the main character is listed as a goalkeeper/libero. Does that mean he often leaves the goal to join the "line" players? If yes, it would be nice to mention that he's a "sweeper goalkeeper" somewhere, which is what a goalkeeper who is known as a libero, or sweeper is. A nice example would be Rogério Ceni, São Paulo FC's goalkeeper and captain. 201.42.186.191 (talk) 02:47, 18 November 2010 (UTC)

Merge
I think it would be best to merge this article with it's game counterpart one because; a lot isn't written in both of them, there are many similar aspects to it rather than differences (we can add a sub-heading for the differences) and many game articles that share an anime/manga counterpart have also been merged. I am still new in terms of preforming this advance process so I ask any one more professional than me to do this (I would take this obligation to do this myself but I do not want to create a mess of this due to my inexperience). Thank you to whom that may do so (PM me about almost any information about the anime that was not present before and I will gladly add it to the best of my abilities when the merge is complete).

WPJ Commentary
I rated this C-class, as I felt it was better than Start. Coverage is the best feature. The article lacks references. There are minor grammar or syntax errors that salt the text, though they do not detract from the readability. They can be probably cleared by a 3rd party review. Accessibility is nominal. Some Japanese terms should be put in italics or quotes. Others should have a brief explanation. A "libero"? Is that a regular soccer term in English? Do liberos and goalkeepers always have such colorful names for their techniques, or is this a phenomenon of manga? To REALLY round out the article, consider a paragraph that examines how Buddhist and Confucian virtues are found in the personality of the main character, and how his actions and habits reflect Japanese work ethic and ancestor worship. Good luck.Boneyard90 (talk) 14:11, 7 January 2011 (UTC)


 * If you wish to have the article reevaluated, please place a request at WP:ANIME/ASSESS. However, it has been agreed to by both WP:JA and WP:ANIME that anime and manga articles not be tagged with both projects' banners do to the high amount of overlap between the two projects. —Farix (t &#124; c) 15:16, 7 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Ah, I did not know that. Nor is it clearly stated on the WPJ page. In fact, this article (and I think one or two others like it) are posted on the "New Pages" list at WP:JA, and I thought it was waiting to be assessed. I refer you to Template:Newest Japan-related articles. Boneyard90 (talk) 15:45, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Libero is not used in English - it would be sweeper. As to soccer in the real world using colourful names to describe techniques - this is football/soccer "it was game of 2 halves", "sick as a parrot" etc that you are talking about - so do goalkeepers say i am going to do Fist of Power etc to describe punching the ball - in a word - no! Manga would probably use technique words for going to the loo! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.144.111.46 (talk) 17:24, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

Interview
Interview with the author

Two Spanish Dubs
I recently added a note that the show is now on Hulu in the U.S. in both English and (European) Spanish versions (but not Japanese). I looked around the web and discovered that the European Spanish dub is merely a "dub of a dub" based on the English version, whereas there is a Latin American dub that faithfully translates from the original Japanese. However, I need help. If anyone can add a reliable source that confirms the difference between the two dubs, I'd really appreciate it.Brittany Ka (talk) 11:49, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

Based on games
If the first game Inazuma Eleven was released in August 2008 and the first chapter of the manga released June 2008 then didn't the manga come first? Ranze (talk) 01:56, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

Not about the manga?
A lot of this page seems to be about the anime specifically, rather than the manga. As I understand, the anime is not based on the manga (although I might be wrong -- I have not watched/read either of them), so it might be worth separating them in some way, renaming the article or otherwise clarifying the difference between the two.
