User blog:Dragonspyre17/Where's the Dark Side of Ares?

Well, since Ares first season is almost over and reading the mix to negative reception to the series, I decided to write my greviences with Ares both Major and Minor.

Major

There is no oppisotion to the sponsership program: The way that sponserships work (don't have a sponser? say goodbye to your soccer club) should of protests all over the soccer youth orginaztion, not to mention unintentionally turning the athletes into sell outs, yet there are very few soccer players that resigned due to being disillusioned to the current climate, heck a team on a scale of Team Rocket filled with these players (including high schoolers, and adults in notible posistions) would of made great antagonists, a radical verison of the resistance from GO who want to return to true soccer with players and actions ranging from incompetant and comedic (interrupt games with Team Skullesque antics) to horrifying and terroristic (interrupt games with exploations and taking the entire stadium hostage).

Where's the Pandemodium?: Anyone who's ever read a gossip magazine knows that most that the more on air presence, merchandise companies churn out, and the higher the fad, the higher chance you have stalkers, fanatics charging at you for an autograpth, a picture, or a piece of you like hair and clothes, or worse being kidnapped by a crazy fan. I mean most middle schoolers just want to get there work done, and hang out with firends, Imagine the chaos of getting constant fan mails, phone calls, being the talk around the country and meetings with adults that are not from school or family and all your energry will be drained, and lets hope the they never find out about the R-18 Doujin some fanatics produce, they will quit soccer forever.

It's a Popularity Contest: Face it, the only reasons some major characters from season 2 and Raimon got to appear in the actual anime is because the fans loved them leaving other characters like Touko, Rika, Kogure, and Tachimukai in the dust (and his school is where one of the notebooks is located). Where is Teppei? is was featured in Outer Code, with a sponser to his family buisness? on his uniform? why didn't he make it to the Anime? Even Megane and Handa our featured as adults in Go, did the rest of Raimon all quit soccer or something? I just hope they all appear in the games so we know where they are. Geez.

No one is investagating the Ares project: One of the things I liked about Inazuma Eleven is its Laytonesque elements of investagation of a deeper conspiracy (Seriously the plottwist of the aliens being orphans sound like something a Professor Layton game will do). So why is there no investagation on Gekkou Electronics, the Ares Project (which from what I read is inbetween RH Program and God Eden)and Midouin himself? How did anyone watch that ad for Ares and think hmm, I want my kid to be a emotionless robot. I just want Detective Onigawara to apear to add then that extra edge (bonus points if he teams up with Sakyou Minaho for a Chelmey and Barton kind of relationship between the two) heck why not investagate Bracelona Orb since I belive they used the RH Program and cheated. (Inazuma Eleven Reloaded is another can of worms all together).

Not Enough GO Referrences: I understand not featuring the GO characters as little kids cause that would be to saccharine for most peoples tastes, but I want some of the new characters to be reletavies to at least some of them like cousins. Speaking of sponsers I'm suprised the Shindou family didn't sponser a soccer team that we know of and judging by the size of there mansion they might be richer than Kidou's (Maybe they either felt above soccer, or Go against sponsering youth soccer for moral/ethical reasons).

The Foundation for a Midquel is there: All the things from Ares are perfect for a midquel, unforunatly they got cold feet due to romance issues (whether they mean in universe, shippers or both is yet to be certain) but I don't mind that the midquel wouldnt take place in a high school and/or the Break trio and the other characters have either minor roles or cameos. I just want the ten year gap to be bridged in someway like forshading Keshin, Souls, and Mixi Max tie up some loose ends (who killed the original Hiroto Kira) and do a tiny bit of world building. (Which Go really excells at).

Minor Oh my Swirls what a long blog, well I'll end it with what will win me to Ares I might make a Tumblr version of the blog soon with pretty pictures and GIFs, and if you want to see better anime from Level 5 from the same season as Ares, I highly recommend Shadowside and Layton's Detective Agency (that one is made by Liden Films) both outclass Ares in the animation, characters, plot, and feels department (with Shadowside being number 1 in my Level 5 department). As for Ares, I'll wait to the Video Game for my final thoughts, maybe the Novels fixed some of the shows mistakes (there are two of them so far).
 * 1) The animation at times are Diamond and Pearl bad. Shadowside has MUCH better animation from the same animation studio (OLM)
 * 2) Tatsumi is voiced by the same seiyuu as LORD FING ENMA, why not give him a signature hissatu that dosen't require another player and more character devlopment (he's supposed to be a calmer Shindou)
 * 3) The three protags element would translate better in a video game so you can choose which main character you play as ala Sonic Adventure
 * 4) To be fair I don't know how Involed Hino is on the anime side of things, I think the majority of the promblems come from OLM and all I know that Hino's only involement in the anime is aprroving the scripts.
 * 1) Have a plottwist where the sectretary is the true bad guy and uses the program to build an army of brainwashed soccer youths and take over the world.
 * 2) Pull a Crises on Infinate Earths/ DB Super like compettion, hosted by a Bill Cipher like being so that each counterpart can compete for their universes safety (and the multiverse as a whole)
 * 3) Forshadow Keshin, Mixi Max, and Souls (Maybe that's Ares true purpose)
 * 4) This will not likley happen but I want a plottwist that Seiryuu is actually an amnesiac Jaou Kaira (Seriously these two really look alot alike)

TLDR: I'm just glad that Galaxy is no longer the Black Sheep of the Fandom (I'm kind of a GOwunner so to speak)

Thanks for reading and have a good day (Shinjinotikari17)
