Episode 008

The Fearful Soccer Cyborgs! (恐怖のサッカーサイボーグ！, Kyōfu no Sakkāsaibōgu!) is episode 8 of the Inazuma Eleven anime.

Summary
It's another big game for Raimon, against the cyborgs of Mikage Sennou. Nobody's ever scored a goal against them, much less won, but if Raimon want to advance they have to do just that. The soccer cyborgs used to follow tactics such as sigma 1 and gamma 7 which are offensive and defensive tactics used by the teams and are planned by a computer which is controlled by their coach.

First half ends with Raimon down by 1 goal. In the second half, Endou leaves the goalpost and comes forward to score a goal but in vain. Takeshi, the captain, is shocked by what Endou did. Later in the game when their coach orders them to destroy Raimon, they refused it and decide to followed their own gameplay which costed them 2 goals one after another and Raimon wins the game. Their coach was very angry while Takeshi enjoyed the game for the first time and he thanked Endou.
