The art and sound are decent in Eyeshield 21, but more importantly its the power and blood boiling excitement attached to the determination of the characters that amazes me. Eyeshield 21, makes you somehow excited and determined like the characters throughout the show. As friends and family hang around together full of liveliness, it shows the incredible determination in American football probably more than actual American Football. The show may go quite overboard sometimes by jumping and touchdowns in seconds, but it stays sane enough to excite you from start to finish. The characters really gave it to me with humor and pure awesomeness. The Evil demon Hiruma, never fails to make me laugh with his terribly wicked plans, Kurita shows a softhearted kindness and a powerful and destructive feature, Shin shows a determination to football which is something you can't help but admire about him. There are players you absolutely hate too, but you can admire how the protagonists keep their cool and win against them in a calm and cool manner. I have to say though, my least favorite character was Sena who was the actual main Protagonist. It takes him a while to show his true guts and strength in the show. He remains a coward for a bit and cools down gradually. However, he shows his full on skill with absolute determination in his mentality when facing an opponent full heartedly.
