I felt there was no way I personally could follow the popularity of this series and its characters. I like both of his special moves, The Mist and Deep Mist!” Gifu prefecture (14) “The scene where he went along with Shindou against Mannouzaka and decided to rebel against Fifth Sector was cool. It’s a relief he and Masaki have become better friends.” Osaka (13) “In any case, his twin tails and pink hair are cute! Since he supports Captain as a good friend, he has a soothing presence. He supports Shindou and I’m glad he felt he could gradually open up to Masaki, who he had a bad relationship with at the start.” Kyoto (15) “I think Kobayashi-san’s beautiful voice really suits him. While he does support Shindou, I think he’s the type of guy who is concerned about the team as a whole.” Chiba prefecture (16) “I was interested in the scene where he and Shindou had a conversation in his room. Always having Captain’s back is also wonderful!” Yamagata prefecture (15) “I thought it was cool that he still tried his best while worrying about his conflict with Kariya. To everyone who supported us, thank you so much!” From here on out too I’ll try my very, very best. At the same time, I think it’s a bit intimidating.

“That Ramaru Kirino-san received this wonderful prize and that I get to play him makes my heart happy. And I was happy that female characters were supported by fans of the same gender. I was surprised to hear that so many characters ranked so high! I drew Kirino with the conflicting ideas of him as ‘a boy who’s more beautiful than a girl’ yet ‘still a boy!’. “I was in charge of the design for Kirino, Tsurugi, Shindou, Amemiya and some female characters from Inazuma GO. Out of all of them, Inazuma Eleven GO’s Ranmaru Kirino, who just beat Kariya by a narrow margin, shone splendidly in first place! The male character section became a fierce battle between fellow Inazuma Eleven characters scrambling for the highest amount of votes.
