Eyeshield 21

1. The names Tsuna and Sena 2. They both have brown and spiky hair 3. Both characters start out wimpy and with no friends, then they make friends and eventually become stronger in order to protect their friends beliefs and dreams.  

Despite differing by the main genre which lead both stories i feel to say that Katekyo Hitman Reborn and Eyeshield21 do share similar traits: - we first see the main male character (Tsuna from KHR and Sena from E21) as weak, coward and easily afraid by stuff - but later, with time, he learns to be strong and to not run away in order to protect his friends and dreams. - then, the amazing characters around the protagonist are very well developed in personality & design in both series I'm surely aware of the fact that who might like sports anime may not like super power genre anime or viceversa, but somehow they show certain epic characters and rythm that makes me tell you that i strong recommend both series :3 read more 

The Story and the plot is very diffrent .. BUT ! Belive me when you watch them both youll get the same unique feeling i recommend you , watch them both ! , the main character has the same personality though ! 

Same because the main character was a wimp and became a kick ass fighter xD 

Eyeshield is an sports anime?? WTH Shoryuuken. Both of these anime the main character is weak, failure and become stronger, Tsuna with a pill, Sena by himself. They also both have stellar character depth and devolpment.  

To be honest, when I first saw Sena, I immediately thought of Tsuna in Reborn. Both are extremely cowardly, get strong when protecting their friends, and even look alike. Both of em have spikey hair too. :) anyways both show a strong mentality toward achieving certain goals together with friends and family. Only difference is one's American Football and the other's a Mafia. 

After watching the first couple episodes of Eyeshield 21, I started thinking. Sena reminds me of Tsuna a LOT. They both look very similar, their names even sound similar, they are/were both always picked on, they both are very timid, they're not particularly good at anything, they are both very blessed with skills but don't realize it, they both improve as the story moves along, and they are both considered "aces", the best among their friends as they fight their way to the top so they can fulfill their dreams. The stories are also started in very similar ways. Sena and Tsuna are both timid losers who get picked on all the time, until they are taken out of that dark hole by people who are seemingly violent. Gradually, they meet friends along their journey and they all grow and fight together. They face tough opponents, but they always believe in each other and everything turns out ok. The main ideas of both stories are completely different, one being about the mafia and the other about football, but they both have the same hidden, or completely obvious, meanings in them. Both the stories surround friends that have fun, fight, and win and lose together. Alright... enough of the serious... these anime are both freaking AMAZING and you have to watch them!!!  read more 

If u liked KHR u will love Eyeshiel 21.Both main characters are simmilar Tsuna(KHR) and Sena from Eyeshield 21. They start as weakling and a no good at all charackters. They both are getting dragged into a world where there are good at. 

If you like wimpy boys turning into super and overly awesome people. Then you'll probably like both. However eyeshield 21 is sports oriented while KHR is action.  

Both the main characters have similar personalities and they kind of look the same.Both anime are hilarious. 

Both are Similar because of how both Main Characters are innocent and gets sucked in to a new world (not literally) Hitman Reborn is about the Mafia and Eyeshield 21 is about football Both of the main characters are forced into it In the end they like it  

-Both protagonists are similar, appearance-wise. -Both protagonists are often bullied, picked on in the start of the series. -Both protagonists gets involved into a situation that they didn't actually wanted to be part of. -Both protagonists gets a lot of friends (and foes, but turns into comrades) throughout the story. Both series heavily focuses on friendship and a lot of drama. However, it does have comedy and marvelous characters that you can get easily attached to. 

Both Tsuna and Sena are victim of bullying and have no friends. They both have a female character that supports them. They are have a talent (or in this case a family business) that they are being pressured to do and after some time, they like it. Later, they get more friends and love the things that they are doing. 

MC have similar traits and development. Both have good supporting characters that also have their own development arcs. Both have a similar vibe and feel of satisfaction after every arc.  

Both protagonists start out unaware of the sport, but through hard work and determination become good at it. 

Both about sports. Main character goes through necessary personality changes to further their goals, in said sports. More Humor, than Hajime no Ippo. 

More deformations than Ippo but another great sports anime with addictive plot and great characters. Not quite at the level of Ippo (my favourite anime) but very enjoyable. 

Both have wimp-like main characters at the beginning. But they get stronger and stronger. You can LMAO while watching*most of the time*. 

Eyeshield 21 and Hajime no Ippo both have protagonists that go from being a wimpy zero to a sports hero, not via some dues ex machina, but hard work and guts. They are also surrounded by a lively cast (albeit the cast in Eyeshield is slightly better). There are hints of romance but no resolution offered in both. The antagonists in both series are fleshed out nicely as well. You also spend a lot of time learning about the actual respective sports themselves. Neither use the bishie style of drawing so it's a refreshing change (no matter how much I love bishies). The soundtracks for both series are catchy and uplifting. I rock out to both of them when I need some inspiration.  read more 

The story are similar, both of the main characters are weak at the beginning. They both enter a world of sport they know nothing, and thus time show great talent for it. They also have a goal, for Sena is to defeat Shin, and for Ippo to defeat Miyata. Nevertheless if you enjoy one you'll definitely enjoy the other. 

Both anime have a weak guy at the begining ippo was builled the same way as eyesheild 21 (cant remember the guys name) they were both always getting food and stuff for the bullies the main diffrence in them is that ippo got his strength from working with his mom and eyesheld 21 got his speed and agility from running arrends for the bullies. 

Very similar main character - wimpy, simple-minded, hard working, honest boys who have a huge talent for their respective sports. Both follow the journey of two high school boys who pursue a sport they grow to love. The rival relationships (Shin/Sena and Miyata/Ippo) are also extremely similar. It makes me think that ES21 was inspired by HnI. 

They both feature a wimpy MC at first. However, once you continue watching, the MC develops into a complete BADASS in the sport he is in. Even though the sports differ, the characters are amazing in both anime. The soundtracks in both anime are catchy AF and magnificent at the same time. Both drawings and animation start weak, but develop into Marvelous animations. (In Hajime no Ippo the animation becomes flawless in S2 and S3) Finally, both anime are amazing to watch and kill time. 

This show reminded me of Eyeshield from the start, and even from episode two with the model guy in both animes. Kuroko has less of the wimpy aspect though. Pretty crazy. Hopefully Kuroko will go big. 

Underdogs challenging other high school sports teams to become nr. 1. They have individual "special moves" used in the games. These special moves, their tricks, is used to make the games interesting and stylish. The main character of both animes hides themselves while playing their sport and are seen as small, timid and weak. 

Both sports, evil and innocent characters loved watching both of the series 

Both published from weekly shonen jump, and get animated by Production IG, also have sport theme even though Eyeshield21 is american football and kuroko no basket is basketball of course,the tension and comedy on par level 

The two involve sports, eyeshield 21 american football while kuroko no bascket bascketball, and the two of them include a main character who normally would suck at sports but they have this inner talent that goes evolving through the anime. If you liked one you would definitely like the other. 

Very shounen type of show. The progress of the team from being average to becoming the best! Serious and funny with lovable characters. Eyeshield 21 was my first anime to ever watch and finish, so all sports anime I have been comparing it to Eyeshield.  

What do you get when you mix a bunch of oddballs, superhuman abilities, and sports? Your typical shounen/sports series that's what! So how do these two differ from that? Well, not that much really but that's probably why they are so similar. While the sports themselves are different the way the team and the individual players play follow similar styles. "If they score then we'll just score 10x more!" are their team mottoes as they both play as offensive, high scoring teams. The protagonists Kuroko/Sena are pretty much the same character as their weak appearance and unique ability make them both the underdog and star player.This leads to games that are interesting as well as exciting due to it becoming a David vs Goliath scenario. read more 

Pretty much both anime revolve around the rise of a young superstar and their path to their respective sports' ultimate championship game. 

Both are very long sport anime about school teams participating in competitions that get increasingly more difficult. Lots of interesting characters, very exciting plot, some humour. 

They are both intersting, fun to watch, and have awesome characters. They are both sport anime, and trust me even if u dont like sports at all and u r looking for something good to watch I definitely recommend them both to you. Not to mention they both make names to thier moves [well atleast most of the time]. 

Both are sports animes. While the main focus of Prince of Tennis is tennis (duh), Eyeshield 21 focuses on American Football. The main characters are also completely opposite of one another. However, after finishing Prince of Tennis, I craved more sports anime which led me to Eyeshield 21. I highly recommend both animes if you haven't seen them yet! 

EVERY character in Prince of Tennis has special skills and many of the characters in Eyeshield 21 does as well. Skills that can only exist in anime. These are used to make the games interesting to watch for the viewer. Both main characters while appearing different, they are both confident in their own abillities and are determined to win. 

Both have unrealistic moves and powers to help them with winning, and they are both long running. 

Both is about sport, even though Prince of Tennis is (like the title says) about Tennis and Eyeshield 21 is about American Football. Both are about Teamwork and how they develope their playing and skills over the time. 

Similars graphisms, thoses two are about sport, and one unknown [really great] person enter in the team.[Tokuchi Toua for One outs and Kobayakawa Sena for Eyeshield] But One outs is pretty most mature than Eyeshield ! 

What to say? they both are quite "unusual" series and somewhat similar to eachother: - both are sports genres - both have the main character (Hiruma for e21 and Tokuchi for One Outs) that look a lot alike and are very smart. They are the big minds behind every victory and every very well planned strategy. At some point of the story they both are compared (if not hinted to be one) to the Devil. - both can be very addicting If you liked one of them, you might probably end up liking the another as well, as they both worth the try! Highly recommended! 

Adult version of Hiruma Youchi plays baseball instead of american football. One Outs' protagonist Toua resembles Hiruma very much: a physically average player wins because he outwits his opponents. Eyeshield 21 is more humorous and there is more main characters, but if you enjoy tactic and mind games, I recommend these both.  

They both are sports and action anime. They both have "poker face" characters that make the anime more interesting and in the games, there are mental tricks to fool the opponent. 

Toua Tokuchi and Hiruma are almost the same. They both are awesome at thinking everything through and bet with their enemies for something they want. They both are great captain and make an awesome team. 

Aside from both being sports anime, they both are a little odd, in the sense that they rely on tactics and quick thinking. These tactics made by characters who feel and look similar. Both have weak teams at the beginning, and then a character who seems to excel at their position, giving the other teams a hard time, while they also give their all. The animation and sometimes the OST feels kind of similar too. The main differences, aside from the sport they include, is that One Outs is a seinen, and is focused on the protagonist; while Eyeshield 21 is a shonen and is longer, so it has more space for character development, and focuses on the team. read more 

They have the same character of a demon looking guy?! and the main guy who always been bullied becomes an important member of sports in both anime respectively?! check them both out?! both are really good :P  

Althought the driving theme changes from martial Arts to American Football, the main characters traits and entire journey are almost identical! No really, watch one episode its astounding how similar the two shows are 

both the main characters start out weak and gets stronger throughout the main story , and both have friends who are like demons lead the group thier in 

Both protagonists start with a weak personality that develops overtime as they gain confidence in the skills of their own niche. Sena and Kenichi are both protagonists that work hard to overcome challenges to become the best in their respective skills (American Football, Martial Arts.) The development of the story is almost the same: 'After defeating the enemy, a stronger enemy appears.' There is an undeniable resemblance in the personality, style and comedy brought by the characters Hiruma and Nizuma Eiji that compelled me to write this recommendation. 

The only difference is the character and attitude of the main female roles and the sport in which they are involved in. The main characters are very similar and have hidden talent as well as a weak exterior. 

Both are about a scrawny little kid who spent most as his life following the biding of bullies as a gopher, until one they he was introduced to a sport that he came to love and practiced that sport until he made his way to the top. 

Both anime are about sport but more importantly they are about this one clumsy kid who is, as it turns out to be, a genius. 

First of all they are both about sport and a weak protagonist without many friends. Just as he starts to do a club activity he finds out about his ability..or rather, others find out about his skills. Secondly, both animes are also about aiming to win a tournament as a team. Anyway both Animes are worth watching! 

Despite Eyeshield 21 involving people with super human powers and abilities it links closely with Oofuri. Both series involving teamwork and trust in one another along with having a timid main character who becomes more assure of himself. And both series have a good enough amount of character development as well despite Oofuri being much shorter then Eyeshield. And of course both series involve sports. Oofuri being about baseball and Eyeshield being about football. 

This two animes HAVE ALOT in common if you ask me. Sena and Mihashi are just two useless sport players, but if you use them right, . . . . BAMM!!. . . . they are the BEST, PERFECT and so on cool stuff !! Sena is REALLY COOL specially the last ep. and Mihashi is REALLY CUTE, *but sturbon sometimes* cuz he looks like a kitty and at the same time a kid whom you can make happy with just candy. XDDD 

Well what i found most interesting with both Ookiku and Eyeshield was their main character and their evolution as a person and as one in the team. The team dynamic and the person evolving was what drove me to enjoy these kind of anime. Sure i had not interest in baseball nor american football before, but these anime taught me a whole lot about the sport. :) Also I liked how the main character started to get more and more confident in their ability and their team. :) 

Both are sports anime with lots of hilarious and serious movement.The main charecters of both the anime(sena from eyeshield and ren from ookiku furikabutte) are similar to each other.They both were bullied frequently and lacked self confidence.  

The main characters from both series are timid, small in size, and wimpy. Both did odd jobs throughout their lives which helped develop their skill. Then one day they find out what they truly love. In Eyeshield 21: Sena found American Football. He was the best Running Back player on their team. While in Yowamushi Pedal: Sakamichi wanted to revive the Anime club but found out he was good at cycling. Coincidental they have someone they like. Mamaru from Eyeshield 21 andMiki from Yowamushi Pedal which drives them to do better. Both series we see their team grow strong and the bonds they share.  read more 

Eyeshield 21 and Yowamushi Pedal both consist of a main character, that are "weak" "nerdy" "uncool". They do so much repetitive courses that they don't even have a clue that they are amazing at it. For our Pedalist, Onoda, it is cycling. In Eyeshield, it is Sena, who runs a lot. They are both sports anime and have a lot of comedy and with different, interesting characters and their PAST. 

They both have a skill that they trained since they were kids and have same personality. They both somehow forced to play sports (Sena was forced to play American football by hiruma and Sakamichi was challenged by Imaizumi to race), and later on they start to like that sport and aim to win a tournament together with their teammates. 

They are both about football (although different kinds of it) & both are great & fantastic plus both are long series (eyeshield 21 has 145 with 1 special episodes & 1 movie while inazuma eleven has 95+ episodes with an upcoming movie & a musical) & both are about a weak team which don't lose hope at any point. 

Different sport but the main character wants to get stronger in his sport. They both develop special attacks along the way. 

While rugby differs in rules and lacks some protective equipment, there's no denying the similarity between rugby and American football. All Out!! even somewhat makes a jab at this with Ebumi's Hiruma references. Both of these anime have the same basic feel about them, both have similarly memorable characters, the sports are very similar from outside perspective. It's a no-brainer, really. 

Both are great American Football anime . If you are into sports you will like this anime . With steady character and plot development , these are very captivating to watch 

if you liked the sport-type anime where teamspirit, friendship and evolution is sentral, you would love eyeshield 21 ^_^ 

Both follow a team with great talent but haven't really made a name for themselves in their sport. Again, for both anime, to become a powerhouse they obtain new, extremely talented people. Then they start their path to victory through a tournament where they meet all kinds of opponents. These include past friends, talented but lazy geniuses, and many others. 

This anime reminds me of Saki, the "sports" anime revolving around mahjong where the club doesn't have enough members to enter a league. Kinda similar don't you think? Oh and if you want to fully enjoy and understand this anime, you need to know the rules of mahjong.
