Eyeshield 21: Season 1

Sena Kobayakawa manages to enter Deimon High, the same school his friend Mamori Anezaki is currently attending. On his first day, all goes well until he runs into three bullies known as The Ha-Ha Brothers. As they drag him into the Football club to beat him up, Ryokan Kurita arrives and scares them away, thinking they wanted to join the Football club. Sena asks to be the team manager for Deimon Devil Bats and becomes friends with Kurita. On the way home, he again runs into the Ha-Ha brothers, wh

Sena arrives at school early to do some training. Hiruma has Sena and Kurita do the 40-yard dash to see how fast they are. Kurita gets 6.5 seconds and Hiruma gets 5.1 seconds, while Sena manages the "Speed of Light," 4.2 seconds, thanks to Hiruma making Sena the bait for his pet dog Cerberus. Later, Hiruma conscripts Sena and Kurita into helping him recruit nine more players for the team so they can meet the player count requirements; the one to hire the lowest would face a penalty from Hiruma.

Its Sena's first game as EyeShield 21, and he doesn't know what to do. As the Deimon Devilbats lose, Sena also has to make Mamori believe he isn't EyeShield 21, or he won't be able to play for the Deimon Devilbats ever again. Can Sena get the winning touchdown and keep Mamori beliving he's the team manager and not EyeShield 21?

The Deimon Devil Bats have won their first game of the year. However, their next match is against the Ojo White Knights, one of the best teams in Japan. Also, Mamori is accepted to join the American Football Club as manager, while Sena acts as secretary.

Intimidated by the imposing statures of the White Knights players, Sena thinks of quitting American Football. Kurita reminds him that he has guards around him, so things will be alright.

The Deimon Devil Bats are up 6-0. However, the Ojo White Knights' ace linebacker Shin is put into play, turning the tide in favor of the White Knights.

The Deimon Devil Bats are in trouble once Shin joins the game. Eyeshield 21 does not want to play any longer after suffering from Shin's Spear Tackle. The Ojo White Knights' Sakuraba, on the other hand, has to decide between the game or fame. Hiruma threatens to leave the match halfway through, until Eyeshield 21 promises to defeat Shin even once.

The Deimon Devil Bats are already sure to lose the game, but Eyeshield 21 is still determined to get past Shin. Eyeshield 21 runs into the Ojo White Knights' Sakuraba, who goes onto the field accidentally to retrieve his last promotional sticker from his idol manager, Miracle Ito. The popular idol is injured as a result and his fans blame this incident on Eyeshield 21. Eyeshield 21 gets past Shin at last and scores Deimon's last touchdown. Shin thinks that Eyeshield 21 is at "a speed where all t

The episode begins with Sena walking to school holding a football. A baseball lands at his feet and Raimon "Monta" Taro comes to retrieve it. When told to give Monta the ball, Sena throws the football, but it slips from his hand. Monta saves it splendidly from getting run over by a truck. Monta is put in the third string of the baseball team, the reserves of the reserves, due to his inability to throw or bat. Sena convinces him to play football, since the Devil Bats need a specialized catcher, a

In the previous match between the Devil Bats and the White Knights, Eyeshield 21 accidentally ran over Sakuraba, causing Sakuraba to be hospitalized. Hiruma poses as Eyeshield 21 and taunts that the accident was not accidental. Monta and Sena decide to go to the hospital to personally apologize for what happened. "Ace" Sakuraba reveals his feelings of inferiority to the true ace, Shin, and his true reasons to be a TV idol, to attract more attention. Torakichi, Sakuraba's fan, encourages Sakuraba

Hiruma has just arranged a practice match against the Zokugaku Chameleons, a team notorious for dirty play and led by linebacker Rui Habashira, who has extremely long arms. Sena and Monta are about to buy backup gear for their next match when a motorcyclist steals their money. With Shin's help, the two are able to retrieve it. Shin tells them that he and the White Knights will be waiting for the Devil Bats in the finals.

It is the Deimon Devil Bats vs the Zokugaku Chameleons. After being tackled by Habashira, Sena starts imagining Habashira being everywhere, thus becoming petrified. Will Sena be able to snap out of it and achieve victory for the Deimon Devil Bats?

Eyeshield 21 watches as Monta gets up after being tackled again and again. Monta puts on a brave face and encourages Sena despite being heavily battered and barely able to walk straight. Soon, Sena realizes that he does not need to fear Habashira, since he has faced a better linebacker in Shin. The Devil Bats defeat the Chameleons with a score of 46-28, which, due to a bet made prior to the game, results in the whole Zokugaku gang becoming Hiruma's new slaves.

Due to a great number of applicants for the American Football Club, Hiruma decides to hold a try-out. He rents the Tokyo Tower for the whole day, and instructs the applicants that they must carry ice to the top of the tower and reach with top with at least one ice cube still intact. Hiruma even places obstacles along the way, further heightening the difficulty of the challenge. Kurita finds an apprentice in Komusubi, and four more players are accepted: the Ha-Ha Brothers and the weak but persist

Hiruma realizes that Eyeshield 21 has good acceleration but bad stamina, so he asks all Deimon students to hunt down Eyeshield 21 or he will spread scandalous information about them.

Mamori, who also wants to find out Eyeshield's identity, follows him around and is abducted by Hibashira and his gang to be bait for Eyeshield. Sena reveals his identity, but Hiruma makes every Devil Bat member put on #

Kurita has been accused by shop owners of ruining their decorations for a festival.

With the help of the two American girls who were being bullied by the culprits the night of the disaster, Kurita's name is cleared. At t

The Deimon Devil Bats are going to hold a barbecue lunch. However, it is still part of the training Hiruma wants to give the new teammates. Hiruma orders them to memorize passing routines for football. Hiruma tosses out the meat as though he is passing the ball, so whoever has memorized the routines gets to eat the meat.

The Devil Bats are resting at the Wild Gunmen ranch. The coach has agreed to train them. Hiruma mentions that Deimon does not allow extracurricular activities after the second year so it is his and Kurita's last chance for the Christmas Bowl.
