Funny / Inazuma Eleven: Ares

Ares no Tenbin

• Episode 1: Goujin misnaming Fire Tornado as "Fire Lemonade". Twice.
• Episode 2: Iwato describes Zhao Jin Yun as a big guy as his teammates point out the same thing about him!
  • Everyone's getting mad at Goujin for not even knowing who the Raimon Eleven are!
  • Zhao Jin Yun's training schedule in a nutshell is downright crazy and the team knows it.
• Episode 3: Hiura shows his teammates his method of watering the school and ground faster, but accidentally splashes them with the hosewater when he's not careful.
  • Hattori's reaction when he sees the bald kid who's working for the coach drawing graffiti on the wall that Iwato is trying to clean. Iwato himself reaches enlightenment after spending hours cleaning up the grafiti!
  • Goujin gets so fired up over the fact that he thinks his license picture doesn't look good and wants Anna to take another picture of him, but she doesn't, saying that it matches his personality perfectly Later, Ootani takes a picture of Anna, who also doesn't like it and wants it to be taken again.
• Episode 8: Goujin getting upset that his best friend developed a hissatsu when he still hasn't is almost as funny as Kozoumaru giving giving him the stink eye because of it.
• Episode 10: Zhao Jin Yun drawing facial markings on everybody who crosses the line during one of his trainings.
• Episode 11: Zhao Jin Yun's face when Tsukushi tells him that he didn't have any strategies is priceless. He also claims that he has a notebook full of strategies, but the pages fall of and they're all empty.
  • Norika expecting Yona to confess to Asuto and give him a love letter, despite her being an old woman!
• Episode 14: Zeus's sponsor is God Bull, it gives you wings.
  • Michinari feeling nervous during the interview is almost as funny as Mansaku telling him to loosen up, only to realize he accidentally appeared on TV. What's even better is that while all of the members' parents are amused by the moment, Mansaku's father is the only one who isn't paying attention.
• Episode 16:
  • When Zhao Jin Yun talks to Raimon about Hakuren's three ace strikers, he accidentally mixes up Atsuya's picture with that of a shirtless, muscular guy he met in the mountains who also has the title "Bear-Killer" before correcting it.
  • After calling Fire Tornado "F. Lemonade" several times and after his teammates expect him to do that again, Goujin this time calls it "F. Almond".
• Episode 17: Hattori getting angry when Nae calls him a girl.
• Episode 20: After Goujin misses out on a Hissatsu Technique again, he uses his "Fire Tornado trajectory correction" "Hissatsu Technique" against Saginuma's "Wormhole" by headbutting the ball. The most hilarious about it is that it actually made a goal and Saginamu didn't even notice it until the announcer said it.
  • Goujin's teammates are still whether or not it's a Hissatsu Technique and one of them even says its probably luck.
  • Also in the original series "Wormhole" was the first technique to stop the once unstoppable "Eternal Blizzard" and was only broken by putting a lot of power into the shoot. In this series it was defeated, because Saginamu thought the shoot will just be stopped when it goes through the hole and falls onto the ground, but he never thought someone would just headbutt or kick the ball into the goal when it falls to the ground.
• Zhao Jin Yun and Lee Lackey are disguised as bears who sell icecream during the match against Tonegawa Tousen. What could possibly go wrong? They only get clients after Zhao ate all of the icecream and after the match ends and he talks to the team, he leaves Lee alone, who can't get rid of all the kids.
• Episode 24: After Haizaki joins Raimon, he changes into the team's uniform in front of everyone, something the girls are repulsed by.
• Episode 26: Just the fact that the winning goal in the finals against Outei was made with Fire Lemonade. It's as if the writers just made the entire Running Gag for this reason alone.
  • We also get to see a flashback of Goujin with his dad before he went to Tokyo. Apparently it was his dad who thought the name was Fire Lemonade, he also said that the name sounds awesome. To which Goujin agrees, they both then guess the hissatsu technique bursts like lemonade and is as hot as fire.

Orion no Kokuin

• Episode 1: Haizaki and Asuto imagining Nosaka eating a banana and a watermelon. Nosaka looks so adorable when he's happy, it's funny.
• Kidou's reaction at Endou's compliment for Gouenji after the latter scores with his newest hissatsu in episode 2.
  Endou: Gouenji... You sure are Gouenji!
  Kidou: Endou, what kind of compliment is that?
• Episode 3: Haizaki and Hiroto "hate" each other so much, they become angry every time somebody tells them they make a good team, such as when Asuto shows them on the internet an article that says "The two forwards leading Japan's team, "Inazuma God and Devil!".
  Haizaki and Hiroto, speaking in unison: Don't lump us together!
  Tsukushi: You're very synchronized.
  Both of them: No, we're not!
  • After this, they start insulting each other's hair.
  Hiroto: That straight hair you've got pisses me off, for starters!
  Haizaki: Shut up, noodlehead!
• Episode 4 has a lot of random lines and moments that are just comedy gold.
  • The hospital scene in the beginning, where Goujin is as always the butt of his teammates' jokes, such as when he tries to tell Asuto to stay quiet.
    Asuto(with a rather loud voice): Gouenji-san, we've come to visit!
    Goujin: It's a hospital, so keep your voice down, Asuto! They'll think we're hicks!
    Iwato: Goujin-senpai, your voice is the loudest of us all.
  • When he announces his intention to take Gouenji's position as the ace striker until the latter gets better, everybody remains completely silent.
    Goujin: Hey, why did you all go so quiet?
    Hiura: I'm sorry. Your joke just came out of nowhere, so I wasn't prepared to quip.
    Goujin: I wasn't joking!
    Asuto: But Goujin-senpai and Gouenji-san's names are kind of similar, don't you think?
    Sakanoue: You're right! They both have ''gou'' and ''ji''!
    Goujin: That's not important!
  • When Zhao Jin Yun wants to show the team video footage of their next opponent, he once again exposes some of his secret content, which includes not only yet another hot chick he has a crush on, but also him in a swimsuit! In the end, he admits that he didn't have anything about Australia's team and that there was no point in the meeting.
  • When Goujin and Fubuki have to buy shampoo for the coach and they are wondering which one is his favourite, Fubuki finds two bottles which literally say "I recommend this." and "Japan's coach Zhao Jin Yun's favourite!". The bottles even have pictures of him taking a bath!
    Goujin(with an annoyed expression): What is that Coach going on about, making some bogus character of himself?
  • After Hiura becomes annoyed with how Mutekigahara Fujimaru still pretends to be just a normal boy despite clearly having soccer skills above their level and how he still refuses to tell them who he is, and after Fujimaru leaves the scene, this conversation takes place:
    Hiura: I will solve this mystery. In the name of my grandma!
    Kazemaru(with a very deadpan expression): Who on earth is your grandma?
• Episode 8: It turns out the person Golem was writing to the whole time was a guy who finally managed to realize and clear up the misunderstanding. The shock was enough to keep him awake the whole night.
  • Ichihoshi convincing some thugs to frame Endou of trying to hurt them, which gets him arrested, isn't funny. What's funny is Ichihoshi trying to pay them with bubblegum instead of money, which leads to him beating them up when they don't accept the pay and threatening to leak the photo of them beaten up on the internet (although off-screen).
• Episode 11: Ichihoshi struggling to press a button that may cause a bus crush is a very tense moment, but it becomes funny when the button is accidentally pressed by Goujin who steps on it accidentally, but instead of causing a traffic accident, it only causes the volume of Haizaki's headset to go up, surprising him and making him lower the volume. Unable to comprehend what happened Ichihoshi presses the button again, only to cause Haizaki's volume to go up once again, pissing him of and wondering if someone plays a prank on him.
  • We then go to the foreground and see Nosaka looking at Ichihoshi which suggests he knew about the button and switched them. This also means that he's the one who rigged the button, but instead of making it do nothing, it annoys Haizaki instead.
• Most of episode 14 is hilarious. Kimura is interviewing Asuto, Haizaki and Nosaka for a soccer magazine called Kira Kira☆Soccer Boy where he asks them to tell him the top 3 of a certain subject, and while he gives Asuto a more normal question^note He asks him about the three best people in his life who aren't soccer players, which is more of a Heartwarming Moment, but in Haizaki's case, he asks him about the top three best bear products, with him unwillingly revealing his Closet Geek nature.
  • And then there's Nosaka who got asked about two subjects. The top 3 gourmet food and top 3 (Changed to 5 at his request) ridiculous Hissatsu's ever shown in the series. Nosaka's comments are gold and his answers for the latter subject almost goes on to Leaning on the Fourth Wall territory.
• Episode 29: Aphrodi's introduction. He introduced himself to the team with grace and a light show. When all this happened, the faces of every player got replaced with Henohenomoheji... except for the girls.
• Episode 38: Asuto, Nosaka and Hiura were trying to sneak in the hospital, with the latter two dressed up as a doctor and nurse respectively. To make it more convincing, Asuto was pretending he didn't feel well. However, he nearly messed it up by complaining about a headache while holding his stomach!
