Kurama Norihito

Kurama Norihito (倉間典人) is a supporting character in the Inazuma Eleven GO anime and game. He's a forward for Raimon.

Appearance
He has light blue hair and has black eyes. His skin is tan. His hair covers his left eye. He's the second shortest member of the team. He is a second year at Raimon. Using his keen physique, he’s a forward with miraculous shoot control.

Personality
He is quick tempered and gets angry easily, and is a person who despises "annoying" people like Tenma, who from the start is one of the few who refuse to acknowledge him. He does, however, care for the team deeply, shown especially in Episode 15, episode 16, and Episode 17, he also has a desire to suceed, such as when he was determined to finish Ultimate Thunder. Kurama is seemingly close to his fellow second years, playing the 'calm one' and is more or less pessimistic. He tries to hide his admiration for others, in the game it is even humorously hinted that he has several posters of famous soccer players around his room. Kurama rarely seems to confide in many people and warms up to only a few. He does start to warm up to Tenma however, even giving him advice for some things, but still refering to him as annoying.

Plot (GO)
He is first seen along with the whole Raimon team that is led by Shindou Takuto to help the team that got attacked by Tsurugi Kyousuke. Afterwards, some members of Raimon quit and Matsukaze said something about soccer to which Norihito just laughed off. Even though he laughed, he is one of the few who stayed at Raimon.

When Kudou Michiya was fired from his position of coach, Kurama believes that the cause of his leaving was Matsukaze's. As the story progresses, he grows to despise Tenma even more. In Episode 11, after Minamisawa leaves the team, he is especially shocked and is so agitated he blames Tenma for ruining their soccer as opposed to Fifth Sector and Tsurugi

Before the match against Mannouzaka in the second match of the Holy Road tournament, he warned Tenma that he will stop him from making a move against Fifth Sector. However, when Mannouzaka forwards Isozaki Kenma and Mitsuyoshi Yozakura advance on him during the match after realizing that Kurama was the only one not playing up to their fullest, it seemed that he would not make a move. Unexpectedly, he kicks the ball to Tsurugi at the last second.

In the following episodes in Episode 15, Episode 16 and Episode 17, he was more determined to help with the team, though he still has the personality of getting angry. It can be seen that he was determined to finish Ultimate Thunder during the episodes and he was a bit more trusting as shown that he agrees on letting Tsurugi play this time during episode 17.

Kurama was revealed to have a shoot hissatsu technique, Sidewinder, in Episode 20. This shot was the first one that was attempted by Raimon against Kaiou, but failed.

In Episode 021, he used Side Winder against the Akizoura Challengers, but failed to make it in the goal since Kogure Yuuya stopped it with Senpuujin.

In Episode 23, he made a chain shoot with Tenma's Mach Wind to score, with his Side Winder.

Against Hakuren in Episode 26, he used his hissatsu again but failed against Shirosaki Katsuya's hissatsu.

In Episode 35, he is switched by Kageyama Hikaru in the match against Genei Gakuen, he wishes for both Kageyama and Aoyama to do their best in the match.

In Episode 37, he used Side Winder and scored a goal to Nishizono Shinsuke, during a training.

It is seen in the preview of the Episode 38 that he can't play in the Desert Stadium because of the field.

In Episode 39, in the second half, he is replaced by Hikaru.

In Episode 40, he and the rest of the team went to the hospital and he was sad about Shindou can't play in finals along with Raimon. Later, he and the rest weren't focused on the training. He was also happy when he saw Coach Endou was back.

In the finals of the Holy Road, he used Sidewinder against Seidouzan but it was blocked by Masaki's Shoot Break. Later, when Seidouzan was replaced by Dragonlink, he saved Tenma to block the shoot by himself, which Yamato shooted against Tenma. He became injured by the shoot and was replaced by Hikaru. At the end of the match, Raimon won with 5-4.
