Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Inazuma Eleven Strikers

Although they look quite similar, something about the JP box art stands out much more in my opinion

Europe's is better. The action packed background characters give it an epic vibe that the Japanese one lacks.

Having never played the series, the Japan cover is a bit overwhelming with so many characters. I much prefer the European one with what I would assume (going in with no knowledge in a real world situation, not after having read the article) is the titular eleven given focus and the other characters given less focus in the background. It’s all easier to take in.

Europe on this one, the background is better while still showing off all it needs to show off.

Europe’s has 11 ‘strikers’ on the box. So the name matches.

Also the background faces look good alongside the improved title.

Maybe it's just that the art for the JP version is higher quality but I prefer that.

I went with Japan this week.

JP one. All characters are clearly visible, at least.

I am voting for the Japanese variant all the way on this one. The color palette is so much more pleasing to my eyes.

Europe easy. It actually has 11 players as advertised.

@Kienda Are you saying you voted for Europe because it's in English and the Japanese one isn't?

EU. Game covers don't have to have every single character on the box. Reminds me of posters for blockbuster movies that feel the need to have EVERYONE on the poster.

I think both are good in their own way. While the Japanese one is a bit cluttered for having all those characters, it doesn't feel as cluttered as it could be and the art itself is pretty good. But I do prefer the reduction in featured characters for the Euro cover. I like how additional characters are in the upper background and I prefer the logo being above rather than below in this case. So I vote Europe, but I like the Japanese one too.

I voted Japan because it makes it seem more interesting than it actually is.

it felt very difficult to pick the better one for me.

Box Art Brawls Current Total:

Europe: 71

Japan: 69

North America: 81

Australia and New Zealand: 1

Everytime someone says football but means soccer, my brain has to perform a mental shuffle.

Anyway, I prefer the vivid colors on the European one more.

Did we Americans not get the games because it's not American Football (i.e. the more popular football in the United States, which is not the whole of America)?

Anyway, I'd vote for the Japanese one if it weren't for that caption, so I'll go with the European one. I like how that one shows the 11 members of the team and what I assume are the captains of the other teams.

I favor the one with a soccer field on it. It gives it more of a sense of space. It also better clarifies what the game is so that the viewer isn't reliant upon the washed out image of a soccer ball in the logo.

It wasn't overtly stated that a football game was selected because of Superb Owl Sunday, but since that's probably what's going on here: go 49ers!

I didnt vote bc theyre both trash

JP all the way! The more characters the better!

Lightning not lightening. Sorry I can’t help it 😉

@Poodlestargenerica I was just meaning the number of strikers is 11 (as the title says) rather than the 29 on the Japanese box.

I think the English title looks better because it’s more prominent. The Japanese one has text above with the title at the bottom which is less bold.

@Kienda Ohhhhh, I understand now. I didn't realize thats what the 11 meant. That's a valid complaint, haha.

This didn't get a North American release? I thought you Americans love Soccer. 😜

@Poodlestargenerica no worries. 😄

They're both quite appealing to me but I actually like the busy character haul of the Japanese one. It shows what kind of a big game it can be when you meet all these characters. Also, the effort there to include all those character designs is impressive to me.
