 * cracks knuckles* a'ight.

Fei Lune

"Save the best for the last". That's not what's happening here. Fei's first appearance was made when he 'saved' Tenma from Alpha and his team. Fei created dupli (which, by the way, not many people can do. 2, to be precise), and managed to fight PO well. If I'm right, the match doesn't really end, because Alpha decides to quit. Which is the same as losing, basically. Fei helped Tenma all the time, every match. His first shoot hissatsu, Bouncer Rabbit, may've not been that strong at the start, but it turned out to be quite powerful later on. During the matches, Fei didn't have much of a development, because he simply didn't need it.

Against Perfect Cascade, Fei achieved his 2nd Mixi-Max with Big, plus he used his Keshin Armed, which made him incredibly quick and powerful. He also gained Extreme Rabbit with Tenma. They unfortunately didn't win the match, due to PC's Hyper Dive Mode, which they just weren't used to. The second time they fought them, they did win, because they were prepared (and new mixi-maxes and stuff but you get the point).

I guess the important part's coming up. Fei's memories got revived by SARU, and he made an own goal. This resulted into a loss, but a loss that was already certain. Fei wasn't seen for some time, until he turned out to be Garu's captain. Tenma VS Fei, a classical. Tenma had to make Fei realize that he, in fact, loved soccer, and all friends he made during that! Having his memories back is just too much for a character to take on, so it's only natural Fei got confused. Eventually, Tenma managed to let Fei realize his great love for soccer and everything.

Fei was a part of the Ultimate Eleven, Chrono Storm, that fought The Lagoon and won.

My point? Fei kept himself a lot on the background, that much is true. All because of his past (e.g. his Keshin). When he lost his memories, he practically found out who he truly was. A soccer freak, with great abilities. He used to be a part of SSC, sure, but he helped bringing them down.

Fubuki

I'll be less explicite here; Lord already summed up some points. Let me bring up some new ones. The fact Fubuki was basically just a big egocentric, for starters. That was pretty much Atsuya, of course, but it's still "him". He was emotionally weak. His Eternal Blizzard was strong, sure, but when it stopped working all he did was sobbing and being benched. Desarm was able to play with him, simply because "he was emotionally weak", as I said before. Fubuki was useful in the match against Gemini Storm and Shin Teikoku (a bit), but not after that. Sure, he was the only one able to make a decent shot against Epsilon, but when he finally broke through Wormhole, Drill Smasher appeared. When he went through his problems, he basically let the team down.

Sure, it was because of his past, but is that really even an excuse? All of his plays were selfish, up to the point he got beaten by Desarm and got benched. Against Epsilon Kai Gouenji appeared, which pretty much saved the day, luckily.

Fubuki never got back to his normal self, unlike people like to say. He became Shirou and Atsuya in one. Gouenji's work, mostly. He surely needed some help for that. Afterwards he was finally useful against The Genesis, with his Wolf Legend and Crossfire. But it sure took a long time.

Overall

My most important points:

- Fei decided to come back to Raimon himself, with some help from Tenma. Tenma just needed to tell him he loved soccer over and over again. But Fubuki's a whole different story. He kept struggling with himself, until the match against The Genesis, where he became a whole different person. Most of his plot also shows he was emotionally weak, and tried to solve everything by himself (up to the Genesis match).

- Extreme Rabbit VS Crossfire? There's no way in comparing which is stronger, but seeing Extreme Rabbit can go Armed...it'd be much more likely to score. Bouncer Rabbit VS Eternal Blizzard? Same thing, probably (note: Bouncer Rabbit became stronger in the Garu/EDT3 match!). And well, I guess Fubuki has one shoot hissatsu more. Sure, Fubuki has Ice Ground, but Fei's not a defender at all. Fubuki can be placed there, however, due to his personality changes. Now don't come up with "Fubuki's better because he can play at more positions", because that's just not true. Tsunami can play FW, MF and DF, but is he stronger than Zanark? Just like that, you can't decide such a thing based on the amount of positions one can play.
