A striker with red hair like a red flame, he is very powerful when combined with Suzuno. He is a brawler and has a rough and powerful style of play.
All profiles are transcribed and translated accurately to the source material.
Appearance[]
Nagumo has crimson red hair with two long pieces of hair as bangs that fall right above each of his dark golden eyes. The top of his hair is styled into four flame-like spikes. He also has one long lower eyelash on each eye. He has lightning bolt-shaped pupils, however they are not present in the original anime series.
When he plays as 'Burn' in Prominence and Chaos, he has line markings below both of his eyes. His casual outfit is a black and white short-sleeved jacket paired with a pair of green pants.
Personality[]
Nagumo is rebellious and arrogant. He will do everything to show that he is the strongest of all. Jealous of being below Gran and his team, he formed Chaos against him with the help of Gazel. Knowing that it was less than The Genesis, they trained hard to become the strongest.
He is not afraid to face all kinds of challenges. Hating Gran and wishing to surpass him, he even approached players in Raimon posing as the rumored flame striker in order to play against the entire team and recruit members for his team. Nagumo also hates taking orders, especially from Gran. He's a boy with a fiery temperament and does not let people walk all over him. His volcanic nature is the complete opposite of his friend Gazel.
Nagumo first appeared in Okinawa when the Inazuma Caravan were searching for someone called the Flame Striker, which Endou and Kidou thought was Gouenji. He confronted Domon and Fubuki claiming to be the Flame Striker and challenged the team to a match to see if he truly was the Flame Striker. He proves it to them by passing through all the members of Second Raimon and by using Atomic Flare, he easily broke through Endou's Majin The Hand. After the match they were about to allow him to join the team but they were interrupted by Hiroto, who revealed that he was a member of Aliea Gakuen.
Despite Nagumo's annoyance, he revealed himself as being the captain of Prominence and also threatened to tell Raimon about Gouenji if Hiroto had continued to get in his way, but was stopped by Hiroto. When he and Suzuno, the captain of team Diamond Dust, heard about Hiroto's team's promotion to be team The Genesis, the two joined teams forming team Chaos, hoping to show their leader who's stronger. During the game, he made a great quantity of goals, breaking through the incomplete Mugen The Hand. After Raimon made 7 goals, he and Gazel joined forces to use Fire Blizzard.
Season 3[]
Later in the FFI arc, Nagumo reappears in episode 81, where it is revealed that he and Suzuno were scouted by Aphrodi to join South Korea's team: Fire Dragon.
After Hiroto steals the ball from Suzuno, Nagumo steals again, passing it to Aphrodi, who proceeded to score with God Break. During the half time, he quietly warns Hiroto and Midorikawa that Fire Dragon will win this match. During the second half of the match against Inazuma Japan, he is shown to have created a new hissatsu technique along with Aphrodi and Suzuno, which is Chaos Break. It broke through Endou's Seigi no Tekken G5, though it was stopped later by Ikari no Tettsui.
He is a forward for Eisei Gakuen, where a variety of players of Ohisama En is part of the team. He played in the match against Inakuni Raimon in the Football Frontier, but was subbed off during the match after suffering a concussion. His team lost with the score of 6-5.
He appeared during the meeting with Hiroto, Tatsuya and Saginuma before they left to Russia for the FFI tournament. The team gathered to welcome their teammates with all due respect and praise them for what they've already achieved.

In one of Hino Akihiro's tweets[1], he revealed Nagumo's alien name, Burn, originated from 燃える (read as "Moeru"), which, in turn, means to burn, which was then promptly turned into バーニング (read as "Baaningu"), which, in turn, is the Japanese pronunciation of burning, being cut to burn, a reference to Prominence's naming motif.
His dub surname, Beacons, are fire or lights often set up in lighthouses as a warning, which is also a reference to Prominence's dub naming motif.
In Inazuma Eleven GO Strikers 2013, fully voiced lines from game files indicate he was planned to have Flame Veil in his moveset, but, ultimately, ended up being unused.
