The Story of Inazuma Eleven GO
The First Adventure: GO
The story of Inazuma Eleven GO takes place ten years after the first Inazuma Eleven anime. In this world, soccer has changed a lot. The results of matches are now decided even before the game begins. This means that winning or losing, and even the scores, are already set.
A young boy named Matsukaze Tenma absolutely loves soccer. However, he discovers that a group called Fifth Sector controls the sport. They are the ones rigging the games. Tenma strongly disagrees with this unfair system. When he tries to join the Raimon soccer club, a mysterious team attacks them. This team easily defeats Raimon's main and second teams. Many players leave, but Tenma is determined to join. He passes a test and becomes part of the team. With his new friends, Tenma and the Raimon team decide to fight against Fifth Sector. They want to bring fair play back to soccer.
Time Travel and Soccer: Chrono Stone
After Tenma helps teach kids about soccer in Okinawa, he returns to Raimon. But something is very wrong. He finds out that the soccer club never existed! A person named Alpha appears. Alpha comes from an organization in the future called El Dorado. This group wants to destroy soccer forever. Alpha tries to make Tenma forget all his soccer memories.
Luckily, Tenma gets help from two new friends from the future: Fei Rune and Clark Wonderbot. Together, Tenma and his friends must travel through time. Their mission is to defeat El Dorado. They need to bring soccer back to the world and save it from being erased from history.
Saving Earth: Galaxy
A big soccer tournament called Football Frontier International Vision 2 (FFI V2) is happening. The best school soccer teams gather, hoping to join Shinsei Inazuma Japan. This is Japan's new national soccer team. But things get strange when eight players who are new to soccer are chosen for the team. Only Tenma, Tsurugi, and Shindō are experienced players.
Many people, including the audience and even Shindō, think the team will fail. What is going on? Can Shinsei Inazuma Japan succeed on the world stage? Or will they be too bad to win any matches?
Later, as Shinsei Inazuma Japan plays through the Asia preliminaries, a shocking truth is revealed. FFI V2 is not just a world tournament. It is actually the first round of an interplanetary tournament called Grand Celesta Galaxy. To save Earth from being destroyed, Earth Eleven (the new name for Shinsei Inazuma Japan) must win the tournament. They have to play against all kinds of alien teams from different planets!
