So I have to debate for Shindou, against Fei Lune. Doesn't seem that hard? (

Well, to start it off, Shindou's overall stats together have 913 points. Fei just has 842 points, counting all stats together. This gives Shindou greater overall stats.

Fei only has a higher Kick, Speed and Lucky stat. Speed and Lucky are just a little higher, Kick, therefore, is 21 points higher. But does Shindou need such a high kick as a (normally) midfielder? No. He still has almost the same speed (just a difference by 2), and he mostly needs the Dribbling stat, which is much higher than Fei's.

If you compare both of their mixi-maxes, they have kind of the same strength. Fei gets KP Break by mixi-maxing with Big, and Shindou gets Fukutsu no Seishin. KP Break decreases the damage on a team member with a Keshin battle; it makes Keshin last longer. Fukutsu no Seishin, however, gives hissatsu techniques an extra boost when the user has a lower GP rate.

You can say Shindou's mixi-max has advantages for Shindou, and Fei's mixi-max has advantages for the team's Keshins. As a mixi-max is mostly used for the user himself, Shindou's Mixi-Max skill will be more practical.

Setsuna Boost and Ouja no Kiba have almost equal strength, I must say Fei's Ouja no Kiba is a little stronger, combined with Fei's kick, but Shindou is a midfielder, with a really good shot. Fei is also a midfielder, and if you use him as a midfielder, this hissatsu + Kick stat will be less of use. Such shots and stats are more for the real forwards. Even his Kick +30, which he gets when mixi-maxed with Big, doesn't make any sense. He's a midfielder.

My next point is about hissatsu, Keshin and Keshin Armed. I think I can say both of their Keshin and Keshin Armed are almost equal. BUT! Shindou is a part of Matei Gryphon! That's the strongest Keshin (Fusion) of the whole game! Having this, it's almost impossible not to score.

About hissatsu: Shindou can do Joker Rains, and Fei can do Extreme Rabbit. Okay. But if you look further, Shindou can perform Evolution, Sword of Fire, and in-game: Koutei Penguin 3gou. These are some of the strongest combination hissatsu's of the game and anime, that almost ensure a goal. Also, Joker Rains, Sword of Fire and Koutei Penguin 3gou are able to be performed while in Keshin Armed. I think Evolution too, but I'm not sure. This makes his shoots extra strong.

And not to forget: Shindou's Fortissimo is a chain shoot. Fei's Bouncer Rabbit, however, isn't. This can also be used as an extra advantage of Shindou.

Now about the anime. Shindou recently was the captain of El Dorado Team 02, and he used to be the captain of Raimon. Was this for nothing? Certainly not! Everyone knows his Kami no Takuto, and lately evolved Kami no Takuto FI are the one of the strongest tactics, that can only be done by the Baton of God himself: Shindou. He's the best captain that exists in the whole IE universe, together with Endou. He knows how to cheer up a team, and pushes his teammates to their limits. Like how he made Beta run as fast as she could with Kami no Takuto FI. I think that worked out well, and his Kami no Takuto FI got 2 goals out of El Dorado Team 2. The 2nd goal was even a goal by Shindou himself, using Setsuna Boost.

Fei however, has shown that he is NOT a good captain. I haven't seen him saying anything to his teammates, no commands, no compliments, nothing. The only characters he can give commands to are Dupli, creations by himself.

Another anime thing, which has to be mentioned. Fei has recently turned evil, and showed he probably doesn't care as much about soccer as Shindou does. Shindou would never become evil, he would do everything what it takes to play fair soccer. I know Fei will become good again, but that's too late in my opinion. He "made soccer cry".

Also, Shindou will come back in GO Galaxy! Fei won't! He's just temporary.

A small picture to convince you Shindou is better too (:P) :



This is what actually started the revolution. Without Shindou, the revolution would've never happened. Tenma could've said anything he wanted, but as long as Shindou didn't agree, nothing would've happened. This just proves how important Shindou is, and what impact he has on the people around him. Because of him, the rest of Raimon GO followed and joined the revolution.

I hereby rest my case. Shindou obviously has more upsides than Fei.

RESPONSE TO NAMEER:

'''Shindou's storyline wasn't of any use, you say? Well, if I recall, his Keshin Armed and Mixi-Max helped winning from PO2, one of the most important matches of Chrono Stone. Fei's SSC powers won't help him in soccer, that's just not playing fair. Shindou will always play fair, no matter what. Also, in the match against El Dorado Team 2, Shindou played the most important role? So his storyline definitely matters, at least just as much as Fei's.'''

'''It's true that Fei is the only one that used Mixi-Max and Keshin Armed at the same time in the anime till now. But that was only because he was TOO WEAK if he didn't do both? Shindou hasn't needed it until now. He can do it, of course, as he masters both Keshin Armed and has Mixi-Max.'''

'''And Fei's Catch stat doesn't matter ??? He is no GK anyway. Shindou also dribbled past players like it was nothing, just like Fei. Fei just does it now, and Shindou has done it multiple times already.'''

'''Headaches don't matter XD. Shindou could burn someone's head off with Kami no Takuto FI '''
