The plot of Eyeshield 21 revolves to a boy who is always bully by the tough guys in school.

To protect his identity and to prevent other teams from recuiting him Sena is forced to publicly assume the role of the secretary and enter the filed wearing a helmet equipped with green tinted eyeshield in order to hide his features.The team also grow as the series continue. They have recruited other members because of the blackmailing ability of Yoichi.
All in all this series is like the anime " Slam Dunk". There are funny antics that come from the villains and of course from the Deimon Devil Bats Team. Fast paced anime, with a lot of action and no fillers. All the members of the team have their own abiltities and distinctive personalities. This anime have no dull moments and it's nice to see something like this with so much raw and passion.
