Tobitaka Seiya

Tobitaka Seiya (飛鷹征矢) (dub name: Archer Hawkins) is one of the supporting character in the Inazuma Eleven game and anime. He is a defender of Inazuma Japan. In GO he is a cook in a restaurant, which is Rairaiken.

Background
Tobitaka used to be a gangster type of person, who was known as Toby the Kicker due to his excessive use of his legs in fights. One day his legs were grabbed in a fight, and as he was about to be beaten up, Hibiki saved him, and offered him the chance to play soccer, as he could see how much of an asset his kicks could be. As he had never played soccer before, Hibiki taught him to play soccer, and Tobitaka won a place in Inazuma Japan as a result of somehow 'shifting the air' slowing down Dark Tornado until there is absolutely no more power around the ball.

Appearance
He has purple hair shaped like hawk wings, though a lot of fans depict his hair to be shaped like a moose's or a deer's horns. He has big black eyes. A habit of his includes combing his hair often. He is also quite tall.

Personality
He is mostly quiet and sarcastic the first time and mostly a gangster but after he joined Inazuma Japan, he was shown to be a person with a big heart. Especialy for Hibiki, because when Hibiki was in the Hospital he and Endou kept waiting until the last moment.

Season 3


Tobitaka is a slick punk from Raimon Town who leads a street gang and often gets into fights. He made a name for himself with his powerful kick and is discovered by Hibiki in the woods in the midst of another rumble with a rival gang. Hibiki urges Tobitaka to make "better use of that kick" and begins to teach him how to play Soccer in secret. Tobitaka gets a shot at joining the country's national team, Inazuma Japan and manages to get a spot for himself on the team he did not play very well but because he was able to make Dark Tornado powerless with the air pressure that he had created. Slowly but surely, he develops his skills and even becomes a role model of sorts to the young Toramaru. He's never seen without his trademark hair-comb. At the end of this season, he is shown to have visited Raimon after their graduation. During the Asia Finals of FFI against Fire Dragon, Tobitaka was able to master his hissatsu, Shinkuuma. During the match against The Empire, he gives confidence to Tachimukai, which made him master the technique Maou The Hand.
