TakuTen

TakuTen is the slash ship between Shindou Takuto and Matsukaze Tenma from the Inazuma Eleven Go fandom.

Inazuma Eleven Go
Tenma arrives at Raimon Junior High School. Here, he challenges Tsurugi after the latter insults soccer. After Tenma finally manages to get the soccer ball from Tsurugi, the main team of Raimon arrives. Tsurugi summons his team, the Black Knights, and the two plays the match to see whether everyone gets replace or not.

Tenma eventually arrives on the field after seeing Raimon losing 10-0. He tries to keep the ball so to make sure the other players don't get hurt. Unfortuneltly, that means that the opposing team is going for him. Shindou tells to a tired and injured Tenma to stop doing that. But the latter tells him to not give up while reaching and grabbing his shirt (specifically on the lightning symbol).

That shakes something inside Shindou, and he cries because he can't protect his team despite being its captain. But the tears are quickly replaced with rage, and he summons for the first time his Keshin, which shock everyone. He is unable to listen to Tenma telling him to calm down, and he goes to fight Tsurugi.

But the Black Knights leaves, and their coach says that Raimon won because of Shindou summoning his Keshin. The latter collapses and Tenma has to attend the ceremony. Shindou wakes up in the infirmery, with Kirino by his side. He asks him what happened because the only thing he remembers was Tenma grabbing his shirt.

Later, Tenma keep trying to pass to Shindou, but he doesn't move. At the end, he snaps and shoots. The shot goaled, and this means Shindou disobeyed the Fifth Sector. This leads to the coach Kudou being fired.

After being back from Okinawa, Tenma is surprised that he can't find the soccer club. He wanders around, until he meets up with Shindou.
