Description
Adriano Donati is a forward for Raimon in Inazuma Eleven Ares no Tenbin, later becoming a striker for Inazuma Japan in the subsequent season, Inazuma Eleven Orion no Kokuin. His Japanese name is Goujin Tetsunosuke. He is a ninth-grade middle school student who plays with the jersey number 9 for Raimon and number 12 for the national team. His element is fire.
Before coming to Raimon, Adriano was a member of the football club on Lointe Island. When the club was disbanded by their coach, Adriano and his teammates decided to travel to Inazuma to continue playing football, eventually becoming members of the new Raimon team. He has tanned skin and short, slightly purple hair. His defining personality trait is his fiery and hot-headed nature. He is quick to get angry and hates losing, but he is not one to hold a grudge and never becomes discouraged. He is also shown to be cheerful and genuinely concerned about his teammates. One of his notable quirks is his lack of knowledge about famous players, including the legendary goalkeeper Mark Evans, which surprises those around him.
Adriano's primary motivation throughout the Ares season is his frustration at being the only player on the Raimon team who has not learned a hissatsu technique. This feeling of being left behind drives him to work relentlessly to develop his own abilities. His role in the story is that of an underdog striker whose determination eventually allows him to unlock powerful techniques. Initially lacking special moves, he perseveres and, during the semifinals against Tonegawa Tousen, he contributes to a combination play that results in the hissatsu Backdraft. In the final match against Selen Gakuen, he achieves his long-held goal of mastering his signature technique, Fire Lemonade. This move, which surprises everyone including the opposing goalkeeper, allows Raimon to take the lead and win the Football Frontier tournament. The origin of the name Fire Lemonade is a misunderstanding from his father, who incorrectly recalled the name of the move Fire Tornado.
His key relationships are primarily with his teammates on Raimon, particularly his fellow forwards. He is shown to be a reliable senpai (upperclassman) to younger players like Sonny Wright, who address him with respect. His relationship with his coach, Zhao Jin Yun, and the team manager is central to his development, as it is the coach who pushes him to master a hissatsu technique. Although he was initially angry about his lack of skills, his arc shows significant growth as he moves from frustration to achievement, finally contributing to his team with his own unique shots. After being selected for Inazuma Japan in Orion no Kokuin, he is initially positioned as a secret weapon for the national team, likely due to the unpredictable and powerful nature of his Fire Lemonade technique.
His notable abilities are all his hissatsu techniques. He first develops Backdraft, a technique he creates in episode 23, and later masters Fire Lemonade in episode 26. While official game stats for his Ares incarnation rate his kick as his highest attribute, his technique and control are also notably strong, with slightly lower ratings for his physical fitness and agility. Despite his reckless, momentum-driven playing style, he is described as someone who always delivers when it counts.
