Agon Kongo - Techniques/Strategies

Techniques/Strategies

  • God-Speed Impulse - This is Agon's innate talent which allows him to move and react with near-superhuman speed. Also, he can use this ability to learn complex physical maneuvers in a short time. This ability extends to practically anything, from driving a car in chapter 313 to riding a bike during his childhood. However, this ability has a fatal weakness; it only works if he can see the movement. When Sena placed his hand on the side of Agon's helmet, this was round the back of it where he couldn't see, and Agon was unable to react to it in time. This ability is sometimes used to humorous effect, such as when Agon's hair grows back after being shaved off in the previous chapter or in the game against Militaria where he tails Gomery until he and Gao down him.Note: Agon is also very intelligent on and off the field and has been shown to be able to read plays when he attempts to down Monta in his own red zone to end the game (and run pass routes as shown in the anime)
  • Dragon Fly and Golden Dragon Fly - A maneuver regarding various lateral passes that require multiple quarterbacks. In the case of "Dragon Fly", it is both Kongo brothers. With the "Golden Dragon Fly", they are joined by Ikkyu. Against the American All-Stars, a new Dragon Fly combination was formed between Agon and Hiruma.
  • Chop - Agon's preferred method of tackling. Using the side of his hand in a devastating chop, he can send most players to the turf groaning in pain. The ref would probably draw a flag and a double-digit penalty for unnecessary roughness, and likely an ejection for repeated offences, in the pros. In the world Cup Arc he only uses the chop to stun defenders when running, else wise he always form tackles
  • Imitation Devil Bat Ghost - Thanks to his God-Speed Impulse ability, Agon was able to copy the steps of Sena's famous run.
  • 40-Yard Dash: 4.6 seconds
  • Benchpress: 120 kg.
  • Agon along with Shin and Sena were the most notable Japanese standouts. Agon was not only able to compete but dominate his zone of defense and cut off any pass that entered make a huge wall in the defense where he and shin played.On the first play of the World Cup Championship game he is the only player on Japan's team who was not tricked by Clifford's fake hand off and quickly rushed to cover Clifford forcing him to pass. Also, Agon and Hiruma's Dragon Fly, was the first technique to score a touchdown against America and Agon scored it. Also when Shin becomes injured, Agon makes up for his loss by becoming the core of the defense. His God Speed Impulse, seemed to be something no one had seen before, and he scored a lot of mvp points, but did not win the mvp award. Agon possibly has the most potential to go pro out of any of the characters, due to his overwhelming genius, but also he was able to dominate the world's "top" all-stars and he, unlike many of the players, was pure talent, with no real practice, or work ethic,so with some practice he possibly could join the pros. But he comments that he doesn't want to play American football all day everyday for the rest of his life, as he just wants the money.

Famous quotes containing the words techniques and/or strategies:

    It is easy to lose confidence in our natural ability to raise children. The true techniques for raising children are simple: Be with them, play with them, talk to them. You are not squandering their time no matter what the latest child development books say about “purposeful play” and “cognitive learning skills.”
    Neil Kurshan (20th century)

    By intervening in the Vietnamese struggle the United States was attempting to fit its global strategies into a world of hillocks and hamlets, to reduce its majestic concerns for the containment of communism and the security of the Free World to a dimension where governments rose and fell as a result of arguments between two colonels’ wives.
    Frances Fitzgerald (b. 1940)
