Inazuma Eleven is a series of soccer RPGs from Level 5 where you recruit team members and lead them in matches against your rivals. Each player has types and special moves, turning the soccer matches into wild spectacles of summons and superpower attacks. As the series goes along, there’s alternate universes, time travel, attempted murder, and more. Just like normal soccer.

As Hiro, save the world from digital invaders through exploring and transforming into new origami creatures.
