InaGo Galaxy Rant

Hey everyone, I haven't been feeling mentally well since 2019 cause I realised that it had been 9 years (back in 2019) since I joined IE and those times were the best days of my life. I just felt like I had to talk about Galaxy and my view on it as it has been bugging me since 2013.

Galaxy, in my opinion, isn't my favourite season. I know this is probably the minority of the fandom. Please don't hate me! I mostly feel this way because I felt Level-5 basically threw the GO Raimon characters away and slot in new characters just to challenge Tenma's captain ability. Because he would be too busy being captain-like, that he wouldn't notice Tsurugi getting captured and replaced by an alien-look-a-like, which is also vital to his development. I get that it could be because of this that's why Level-5 needed new team members as the Raimon players will definitely listen to him since he's been their teammate for so long and will probably realise if Tsurugi got replaced. Tenma needed that challenge to develop as a captain. Saying that, I felt the GO Raimon players had so many character development like Kirino, Nishiki, and Taiyou that were all in the Strongest 11 in Chrono Stone, and should have been selected, but to only appear for like 3 episodes? (at best based on my memory), pushed aside as they have no 'Soul' abilities. Keshin and Keshin Armed are thrown aside as well like ? (the game still had them + Souls like why are you so different?). I was at least happy Shinsuke got in halfway before Earth Eleven left for space, and had a good friendship with Tetsukadou who has the same voice actor as Kariya whom Shinsuke had a close friendship with too (sort of like a throwback to GO, Kariya was such a great character too, many people in the fandom even Japan liked him a lot).

Don't get me wrong, I loved the plot and the alien characters were great (like Powai & Banda & Hilary, etc) I did like majority of the Earth Eleven members. (Please don't hate me again!) I mainly don't like Matatagi and Ibuki (There I said it). I know they are popular in the fandom, let me explain. I just felt they were quite a**holes to the other members. Like Matatagi was plain out rude (you shouldn't say such things to anyone ever. It could demoralise them. You also shouldn't be teaching your brothers this attitude as well. It's not nice to others). He also didn't have character development, just revealing the kind of person that he was hiding under. I also felt he was trying to be the 2nd Tsurugi, he was shooting majority of the goals, but I guess we could say it's because Tsurugi was swapped with an alien and that's why he couldn't show his moves much. Ibuki's pride got on my nerves a lot and his dynamic with angry!Shindou is just -_-". This relationship started purely from angry!Shindou which didn't make sense to me. I know that Shindou's no longer angry in later episodes and people ship him with Ibuki. (there is sexual tension between the two I'll admit and that my hatred towards Ibuki might be formed from my bias as a TakuRan fan, still don't like Ibuki though) I get that this is the way they were written, I'm not faulting their writing. In my opinion, the personalities I like would lean more towards the GO Raimon Players as they were nicer personality-wise and had excellent teamwork. It could be as I left the fandom during the time Galaxy was airing and aren't as close to the Earth Eleven characters compared to the previous 2 seasons. I did watch the first few episodes and just dislike them. I did try to give it a shot once more over time, hence my MinaMana fic (I did ship them due to the game, they had a lot of moments there). Kusaka and Morimura were cute too. I still do not feel as close as I could to the new members.

Another thing, I don't know what's up with Shindou, he's like mad at the new members all the time which isn't his character in the first 2 seasons. He used to be a captain as well, which means he should be nice and accepting to the new members and try to persuade and teach them but he ended up just flat out hatred for them which was so ooc (Even though he was a temporary captain in the match in Chrono Stone with Protocol Omega captains, Shindou was still trying to gather the players together). Tsurugi's status as ace striker decreased, can't fault him for that as he disappeared half of the season (still it was disappointing not seeing him in action much). Kageyama Reiji, I thought we've established that he's a nice and yasashii person back in the Original series FFI arc? What happened to that? I know he has his own weird way to show his love for soccer but this new Kageyama is like a completely new person to me. He's clouded in mystery that you just can't link Kuroiwa with Original Kageyama. Also, Kageyama Reiji + Hikaru = ?, did they forget about him? Hikaru definitely saw his uncle when they were choosing the next Earth Eleven players. Disappointed... (I know the game did have Hikaru mention Kuroiwa sometimes but that's it, no reunion whatsoever. I would have loved for Hikaru to talk to his uncle about himself playing soccer for him and bonding with Kageyama over their love for soccer. Kageyama Reiji had such a cute relationship with Rushe so having a similar bond with Hikaru might have been better. At least all the explanations by Hikaru about being a Kageyama in GO build up to something). Hikaru, Kariya, and Nishiki are the new members of Raimon that fought in the Holy Road. They were like a big part of the revolution. Getting smaller roles in Chrono Stone was one thing, completely ignored in Galaxy was another. My man Yuuichi! You only appeared once and just forgotten. I want to see you kick the ball, I want to see you play soccer again! Level-5 appreciate him more please!

I'm ok with the Galaxy plot, it was the best way to end the GO series, I'm not denying that. The challenge to Tenma as a captain and questioning his friendship with Tsurugi at the last moment was so great, and those two scenes with Katora and Lalaya were sweet (sort of could be seen as romantic and its not kind for my KyouTen heart) and they added towards the plot (the game did it a lot better), the match between Tsurugi and Tenma was such a nice way to elaborate their friendship. I really love the part when Tenma was so heartbroken when he found out Tsurugi was playing for Falam Orbius, thank you Terasaki Yuka-san for making Tenma sound heartbroken (i needed it to mend my crushed KyouTen heart)! I'm glad at the end they brought back Tenma's dribbles and his casual love for soccer (a throwback to GO final match), Ten Made Todoke! played (throws nostalgia at you), black hole's gone and Earth Eleven heads back home all happy with the Raimon players. I'm also sort of glad they brought back the captains of Holy Road into Galaxy as Resistance Japan, Hakuryuu my boy is back! Shinsuke gets to protect the goal once more! BLESS my boy!

So yeah, I was sort of ok with Galaxy (sorry if I sounded like I wasn't), plot-wise was great, character-wise hmmm depends on individuals I guess, perhaps better writing for them might have been better? It seems the game did this season more justice compared to the anime. Kageyama's ending was weird like there was more they could have elaborated (seemed like there's a continued series?) but that was thrown aside (I'm open for anyone to explain this better for me).

Anyways, thanks everyone for sticking around this rant about Galaxy. Please know that these are my opinion on the season and every person perceive things differently than others. No hate here please.
