Something I kind of like about Eyeshield is that the series isn't afraid to take the camera and point it at places other than the Devil Bats。 And not just to show the other games -- it gives them the space and attention to develop them as people， even off the field。We start off this volume with the Devil Bats watching two of the powerhouse teams in their area -- the previously mentioned White Knights and the Wild Wild Gunman。 It's partly to teach us a new aspect of football -- routes， in this ca Something I kind of like about Eyeshield is that the series isn't afraid to take the camera and point it at places other than the Devil Bats。 And not just to show the other games -- it gives them the space and attention to develop them as people， even off the field。We start off this volume with the Devil Bats watching two of the powerhouse teams in their area -- the previously mentioned White Knights and the Wild Wild Gunman。 It's partly to teach us a new aspect of football -- routes， in this case。 Seibu has a receiver who always runs his routes perfectly， while our Devil Bats have never even HEARD of routes。 （A fact that gives us a bit of fun and shines a light on why Hiruma maybe let bookworm Yukimitsu on the team -- alone of the offensive players， he not only embraces the challenge of learning routes， but also learns them fairly quickly， without Hiruma needing to force the issue。） We also meet The Kid， a shotgun quarterback with a "quick draw" throwing style and a life outlook that centers on never having any hopes or expectations。 But once this game is over， we refocus on Sakuraba， the received from the white Knights who got injured earlier after colliding with Eyeshield 21。 The stuff with him and the kid who shares his hospital room is actually pretty cute。 :）And the second half of this book deals with the next Devil Bats game。 See， a U。S。 team is coming to play an exhibition game， and Hiruma wants the Devil Bats to be their opponent。 The problem is， another team has been chosen based on their size （and therefore， their likely ability to hold up to a U。S。 football team）。 but Hiruma isn't the sort to accept that and comes up with a way to compete with the other team -- the Sphinxes -- for the right to play the U。S。 team。With as small a team as the Devil Bats have， everyone has to contribute to do well。 But the focus in this game is on the line -- and specifically Jumonji， Kuroki and Togano， or the "Hah brothers" -- three guys who got blackmailed into the team after trying to bully Sena very early on。 Until now， they've mostly been going along with things because of the blackmail， and have more or less existed as a unit -- a fact lampshaded by the fact that the trio even share a locker in their new， larger locker room （though there's an in-universe reason for that as well）。 But in this volume， things kind of come to a head and the trio have to decide if they want to run， or if they are really going to embrace being Devil Bats。 Which way will their pride lead？ 。。。more

Eyeshield 21: Powerful continues where the previous tankōbon left off and contains the next nine chapters （35–43） of the on-going manga series。News comes that an American team is challenging a Japanese team to compete against them。 Yoichi Hiruma sends an e-mail to the magazine that announced it but the editor rejects them。 Therefore， Hiruma uses his hacking technique to send a fake e-mail via the publisher's computer to the Americans。 However， the Taiyo Sphinx， who was supposed to fight with the Eyeshield 21: Powerful continues where the previous tankōbon left off and contains the next nine chapters （35–43） of the on-going manga series。News comes that an American team is challenging a Japanese team to compete against them。 Yoichi Hiruma sends an e-mail to the magazine that announced it but the editor rejects them。 Therefore， Hiruma uses his hacking technique to send a fake e-mail via the publisher's computer to the Americans。 However， the Taiyo Sphinx， who was supposed to fight with the American team is not satisfied。 Therefore， Hiruma challenges them to a match over the title of Japanese representative。Meanwhile， the Hah Brothers quit the team as they cannot find the negatives， but after they are badly beaten by Taiyo's Banba Marmoru， they return to the team to become stronger。 The match starts badly as the team cannot break down Taiyo's pyramid line。 However， thanks to the new technique that the Hah Brothers learn from the with Zokugaku Chameleons， one of them， Kazuki Jumonji， pins down Taiyo's lineman Niinobu Kasamatsu。This tankōbon is written by Riichiro Inagaki and illustrated by Yusuke Murata。 For the most part， I really liked the story and how the Devil Bats' next milestone is to play against an American Football Team， but before they can compete against them， they have to go through Taiyo Sphinx who was the team was chosen to play against the American team。All in all， Eyeshield 21: Powerful is a wonderful continuation to a new series that seems intriguing and I cannot wait to read more。 。。。more

A trio of delinquents， Sena's original bullies are blackmailed into joining the American football club but along the way， discover their desire to win。 Sounds like a plot for the next Mighty Ducks reboot but this is basically one of the plots of this manga。 Somehow， it works， especially with the comedy and exaggerated facial artwork。 It's a lot of fun to read。 A trio of delinquents， Sena's original bullies are blackmailed into joining the American football club but along the way， discover their desire to win。 Sounds like a plot for the next Mighty Ducks reboot but this is basically one of the plots of this manga。 Somehow， it works， especially with the comedy and exaggerated facial artwork。 It's a lot of fun to read。 。。。more

In this volume we get a different matchup as the Devilbats go as guests to watch a their rival White Knights go up against the Gunslingers。 Both teams are considered two of the top in Japan。 The second half of the manga focuses on one of the star receivers of the White Knights and concludes with The Devilbats starting their face off against the mysterious Sphinx team for the right to play a prestigious American team in an exhibition game。This was a fun volume with a balanced dose of football act In this volume we get a different matchup as the Devilbats go as guests to watch a their rival White Knights go up against the Gunslingers。 Both teams are considered two of the top in Japan。 The second half of the manga focuses on one of the star receivers of the White Knights and concludes with The Devilbats starting their face off against the mysterious Sphinx team for the right to play a prestigious American team in an exhibition game。This was a fun volume with a balanced dose of football action and new character development that flushes out our rival team even more than just their star player。 The development of the shotgun offense for the aptly name Gunslingers （in addition to their aloof charismatic quarterback） was another great move in explaining the grand strategy and scheming of gridiron football。 I bet the Bats will face this team in the future， but when has me wanting to keep reading long run。 The next volume also looks promising as the Sphinx team appears to be the toughest and most interesting opponent the Devilbats have come up against yet。 Their already touting a killer offensive/defensive line！ Yay for football geekery。 3 stars。 。。。more

The book of Eyeshield 21 is about a weak boy named Sena Kobayakawa goes to Deimon Private Senior High School， where his childhood friend Mamori Anezaki went to school the year before。 His only special ability is his running speed which came from a school life spent complying with the demands of bullies。 It was revealed later that a friend， Riku， taught him how to run fast to help him against bullies。 His skill was recognized by the high school football team captain Yoichi Hiruma， who forces Sena The book of Eyeshield 21 is about a weak boy named Sena Kobayakawa goes to Deimon Private Senior High School， where his childhood friend Mamori Anezaki went to school the year before。 His only special ability is his running speed which came from a school life spent complying with the demands of bullies。 It was revealed later that a friend， Riku， taught him how to run fast to help him against bullies。 His skill was recognized by the high school football team captain Yoichi Hiruma， who forces Sena to join the Deimon Devil Bats as its running back。 Like every high school there were bullies， and this deadly trio was called the Hah Hah Brothers， they picked on Sena until he decided to stand up for himself one day。 He pulled pranks on the bullies with his speed and without them knowing。 Soon after， they joined the football team in hopes of getting back at him。I can connect this to any average bully because in almost every bullet scenario， they have their fun picking on the weaker people but then they will rise against the bullies to beat them and they will usually bond after that I rate this book 1 star because my opinion has changed on this book， I thought it was pretty decent but it was the same prodigy based thing where this one guy can do something physically better than the rest。 。。。more
