Appearance[]

Saginuma has pale skin and orange eyes. He is tall in height and very slim. He has wavy jet black hair tied into a ponytail with two bangs that frame his face. As Desarm, he has pointy ears, shorter hair that is wore down, orange eyes with black sclerae which turn glowing red in his Epsilon Kai version and wears a black scarf around his neck. In Inazuma Eleven GO, he wears a navy blue shirt coupled with white pants and a red jacket with golden laces. He also leaves most of his hair down, with some parts tied with white beads.

Personality[]

He has always seemed to be a determined person, and occasionally even seeming greedy. At first, during the Aliea Gakuen arc, he was very greedy for power. In the FFI arc, while he was in Neo Japan, he was extremely determined because he wanted a chance to play soccer on an international level but his team lost to Inazuma Japan. However, he is a person who can admit his loss while still trying his best to improve. He is also hard-working because he took Hitomiko's training and he also came back to goalkeeper to help Midorikawa train.

He is not very good at inspiring others. When he wrote a letter to Inazuma Japan, he wanted to help and inspire them, but they ended up becoming depressed as the letter was too long.

In Inazuma Eleven GO, he is shown to be very enthusiastic when he was encouraging Seidouzan during the half-time against Raimon.

Plot[]

Inazuma Eleven[]

Season 2[]

He first appeared in episode 34, as Epsilon's goalkeeper and captain, Desarm. During his debut, he "exiled" Gemini Storm after their lost against Raimon. The first match he and his team were seen playing was against was Manyuuji Junior High in Kyoto. In a matter of just six minutes, he and his team injured all members of Manyuuji, except for Kogure, and won by a score of 16-0. Raimon then played against Epsilon with Kogure, who caught Epsilon's strong shot by accident before they made their leave. Later at Osaka, he and his team had a match against Raimon, which ended up as a tie. They reappeared again and fought Raimon again, but Gouenji Shuuya rejoined the team and defeated them. At the end of the match, Gazel appeared and "exiled" Epsilon Kai.

Season 3[]

Saginuma was present to watch the Inazuma Japan selection match, which he did in secret. After watching the match he felt frustrated that he was not chosen to participate. This led to him appearing at the doorstep of Ohisama En, pleading to Hitomiko to make him stronger. Although, Hitomiko had not planned to get into soccer again, she decided to make a new team called Neo Japan to win and take Inazuma Japan's place as Japan's nationals.

Saginuma began training with the newly formed Neo Japan team, part of their training consisted of teaching each other their techniques and using them against each other, often outnumbering them as they forced them to improve their skills and techniques as need by Saginuma having to avoid both Killer Slide and Earthquake at the same time. Neo Japan would later watch Inazuma Japan's match against Big Waves in person where they were told to burn the image of Inazuma Japan playing for their country instead of them into their minds, fuelling their motivation.

Saginuma would later appear at Raimon to challenge Inazuma Japan to a match, where Hitomiko and Kudou decided the winner would repreent Japan. During the first half of the match against Inazuma Japan, Saginuma commanded his teammates to block and steal the ball from them. Neo Japan thus had a tough defense that gave their opponents a hard time. Saginuma surprised Inazuma Japan when he used Illusion Ball 改 and Dash Storm V2 since both were the hissatsu of other teams. After Neo Japan made their first goal, Saginuma told Endou Mamoru that although he learned that soccer was something passionate and fun, competition was a heart-breaking and intense existence at the same time. He then declared that he and his team would be taking the national seats for Japan no matter what.

Saginuma and the others on the team had upgraded moves but in the end, Inazuma Japan won and kept their seat. He was later seen training Midorikawa under Hitomiko's supervision.

In episode 101, during Inazuma Japan's stay at Liocott Island, he sent them a scroll. However, it was actually a greeting letter consisting of many formal sentences and an old-person's way of speech, making all the members who listened to it feel awkward. In the end, he re-united with Hiroto after the FFI ended.

Inazuma Eleven GO[]

He appeared in the GO game alongside Ishido and Toramaru, it was then later revealed that he was one of the people that were training Seidouzan.

He first appeared in the anime in episode 41 along with Ishido and Toramaru, encouraging Seidouzan and helping them out as their assistant coach during the match.

In episode 43, he was seen sitting next to Hitomiko, watching the match along with Kurosaki and Masaki. In episode 44, he was seen listening to Hibiki, who was making his speech.

Inazuma Eleven Ares no Tenbin[]

He first appeared in episode 14 in the Football Frontier nationals opening ceremony along with rest of his team Eisei Gakuen. He appeared yet again in episode 18 as his team came up against Inakuni Raimon in the quarter finals of the Football Frontier.

As the match started Raimon broke through the defence of Eisei, then Saginuma challenged Kozoumaru Sasuke to shoot at him. Kozoumaru answered him by using Fire Tornado. But Saginuma saved it with Wormhole. As stated by Ootani Tsukushi, his style was to agitate the other team. A few minutes later into the match, Okuiri Hiro passed to Kozoumaru. But Saginuma thought it was a shoot and got ready to save it. But then, Kozoumaru received the ball without Saginuma noticing and then passed it to Inamori Asuto who then gently passed it into the goal all while Saginuma was oblivious to this making it 1-0 to Raimon. Despite this, he still was agitating the opposing team not even being phased at the fact that he was loosing. Soon after this, Tatsuya scored using Ryuusei Blade, making it 1-1. Once again, due the their inexperience, Saginuma let another goal in just like the last goal making it 2-1 to Raimon. But again Saginuma wasn't phased and still talked down on the Raimon players. Straight after this Midorikawa Ryuuji scored with Astro Break making it 2-2. Raimon then started with the ball. Saginuma challenged Raimon to shoot at him again claiming he would try and stop it with all his might. So Goujin Tetsunosuke and Michinari Tatsumi used their newly trained hissatsu Flash Dance. Even though Goujin was supposed to use the hissatsu, Hiyori Masakatsu used it instead. As Saginuma braced himself for the shot, Kiyama tried to help to stop the shot but instead redirected the shot to score the 3rd goal for Raimon making it 3-2.

Later on in the match. Asuto moved up the field and faked Saginuma out. He thought Asuto was about to shoot so went to save the ball but actually Asuto passed it to Goujin who scored the 4th goal making it 4-2 to Raimon. Once again, Saginuma wasn't discouraged and kept on agitating the Raimon players. Soon after Asuto shot again after Hiura Kirina used Koori no Ya to pass to Asuto. This time Saginuma saved it with Wormhole. Because of the switching between Nagumo Haruya and Kira Hiroto, Saginuma didn't really have to do much for a while. Meanwhile, Kira leveled the score to 4-4. After a while Raimon finally got another chance to shoot. Kozoumaru used fire tornado which easily got stopped by Saginuma's Wormhole stating he's been through that shot before. However it was all part of Raimon's plan as Goujin headed the ball into the goal before the ball hit the floor much to Saginuma's surprise, this made it 5-4. After that, Raimon got past Eisei once again. Asuto got the ball and Saginuma challenged him to shoot stating to entertain him as it was starting to get interesting. Asuto used Shining Bird. Knowing their strategy of Goujin heading it in, Saginuma stated he's not falling for the same mistake twice which led to him using a totally different hissatsu called Drill Smasher which easily saved Shining Bird. As Nagumo stated, Saginuma was slow getting started, but when he did, he's a solid keeper.

During the second half, Tatsuya scored the fifth goal using Ryuusei Blade making it 5-5. Saginuma once again challenged Asuto to shoot at him, to which Asuto used Shining Bird and it got saved by Drill Smasher once again. Now during the last few seconds of the match, his goal was taken under fire by Hokkyoku Guma 2gou, and he used Drill Smasher again trying to stop the shot. However, he failed to do so, resulting in Inakuni Raimon's winning 6-5 goal.

Inazuma Eleven Orion no Kokuin[]

Saginuma appeared at the ceremony where the members of Inazuma Japan were announced. He was sitting at the stands with his teammates from Eisei Gakuen. As he stated he felt arousal within him and Yagami Reina told him call it excitement. Later he was selected as one of the three goalkeepers, together with Kiyama Tatsuya as a midfielder and Kira Hiroto as a forward. He was very affected when Midorikawa Ryuuji congratulated them. Saginuma gathered with his new teammates at the stadium and celebrated their choice. Inazuma Japan arrived to the Kawaguchiko Sports Center where they were going to stay and train for the upcoming matches in preliminaries. On the next day the team had their first training and to their surprise joined them captain of the Spanish team Barcelona Orb, Clario Orvan. Coach Zhao announced a little contest with Clario. Without any problems he passed all 18 players and at the end he shot with his technique Diamond Ray, no one could stop him, even three goalkeepers. Clario stated that Japan's level raised up and he decided to back to his country to practice more, after he saw one of them training in the evening. However, when they were wondering who was it, he didn't tell anything and left the camp.

In the match with South Korea's team Red Bison Saginuma was sitting at the bench. The match seemed to be normal as usual, both teams had comparable abilities but when Red Bison noticed that their all attacks were blocked, they changed their strategy. They started to play rough and quickly scored the first goal. Saginuma was shocked and angry after they obstructed Endou Mamoru’s view before they shot. Later when Gouenji Shuuya scored the first goal for Japan with his outstanding Last Resort, Red Bison targeted him and quickly eliminated him, injuring his leg. Inazuma Japan were shocked by what happened. Saginuma was surprised with Goujin Tetsunosuke’s positive attitude when he was ready to go on the field and Hiroto was chosen by the coach to replace Gouenji. When Haizaki Ryouhei and Hiroto started to compete each other instead cooperate, the team didn’t understand their behavior and Saginuma stated that their enemy wasn’t Korea but themselves. The match ended with Inazuma Japan winning and the team celebrated their first victory.

Before the match with Australian Shining Satans, coach Zhao informed the team that he didn’t get any information about their play so they could practice in the way they wanted to. Everybody decided to work on their weak points and Saginuma was training with the others on the field. Later during the match he was benched again. From the beginning nothing seemed to be like expected before. The ball was disappearing and Inazuma Japan couldn’t figured out what was going on. What more no one saw anything in the audience or in the bench. After Australia scored their second goal, Raimon Natsumi appeared before the team. Saginuma stated that she was the manager and reinforcement committee member. Later she revealed that Shining Satans were using hypnosis to trick the opponents and she advised Japan’s players to close their eyes while approaching them. After that Australia changed their strategy and started to use mirrors hidden in their cleats to blind Inazuma Japan. It turned out that Ichihoshi Mitsuru was one of the players using the mirrors and Kidou asked Haizaki and Hiroto to eliminate Ichihoshi by shooting at him with the ball. When Sakanoue Noboru was cut by blades hidden in Luci Fanos’ cleats, Saginuma with the others watched him getting his wound dressed. Later with the help of Natsumi Endou was able to stop another Australian shot with his new technique Fuujin Raijin Ghost. When Inamori Asuto was hit by Haizaki's shot instead of Ichihoshi, Saginuma with the team stood shocked and in disbelief. Once again Goujin was going to enter the field but coach decided not to replace Asuto. Goujin stated then that he would keep preserving his strength in the meantime and Saginuma told him admiring, that his positivity was world-level. When the match ended Saginuma smiled, happy with the team because of their winning. Later in the locker room Kidou informed the team about Ichihoshi's actions against Inazuma Japan and asked them for help to eliminate him. The team agreed but in the same time Kidou was accused of doping after some forbidden pills were found in his locker.

Before the match with Uzbekistan's Eternal Dancers, Inazuma Japan underwent special training which was the relay race. When Endou got arrested and coah Zhao presented Nishikage as their goalkeeper in the next match, Saginuma asked what about him but Tatsuya put a hand on his shoulder and smiled meaningfully to Saginuma, making him confused. The match began with Inazuma Japan in disarray. Without the leader on the field, they weren't able to work together and made mistakes. With Nishikage quickly conceding two goals, things were quickly stockpiling against Inazuma Japan. Later when Nosaka Yuuma came back to the team in second half, he quickly and efficiently takes the reins. Inazuma Japan started to score some goals and when Eternal Dancers kept pressure on them, Nosaka initiated their tactic which turned out to be Grid Omega ver2.0. At the end Japan won with 4 points. After Endou came back from the arrest the team were talking about the strange events during the tournament. Later, coach Zhao confirmed their suspicions and revealed that the organization called the Orion Foundation was controlling the matches and sent to other teams their spies the Disciple of Orion. Ichihoshi was one of them, cooperating with the Orion Foundation in order to cure his ill brother. The team decided to help Ichihoshi.

Before the upcoming match against Saudi Arabia's team Arab no Hinotori Gundan, Inazuma Japan trained with a special device, thanks which they could learn how to avoid rough plays and fouls. During the match Saginuma was sitting at the bench again. He seemed to be irritated by Goujin's behavior who was warming up constantly and wanted to join the match in a very aggressive way. Saginuma asked Goujin how many matches he intended to warm up for. Gouijn got on Saginuma's nerves because of giving him to understand that he was in the same boat as he, sitting on the bench all the matches so far. During the match Japan's players were trying to involve Ichihoshi in the game, despite his doubts and struggles with himself. Later Saginuma with the whole team froze in fear when Ichihoshi approached to Nosaka's head with his leg. After Ichihoshi was hit by the falling meteors from the Red Hot Chili Meteor, he left from the field and everyone gathered around him, wondering what happened. Kudou Michiya, coach Zhao and Nosaka revealed the true about Ichihoshi's identity and his dual personality of two brothers, Hikaru and Mitsuru. The team decided to let Ichihoshi continue play and Saginuma was shocked when he saw him later, finally changed in Hikaru itself. At the end of the match Inazuma Japan won with 2 points. In the evening, Saginuma gathered with the team to support Ichihoshi who was going to leave after all what he's done.

During the briefing before the match with China, coach Zhao revealed to the players that his supporter Li Kobun was in fact Li Hao, a forward from Chinese team. He's been cooperating with Zhao since he was a child, helping him now leveling up the team. Saginuma and his teammates were listening these revelations deeply shocked, hardly able to accept that they were trained by someone from the opponent's team. Later during the meal Ichihoshi, who was trying his best to be useful for the team, served Saginuma another bowl with rice. When Ichihoshi got lost with Asuto in the forest, the whole team was searching them through hours and finally found them in the evening safe and tired.

In the match with Chinese team Soccer Zatsugidan, Saginuma was hoping that he would be chosen as a main goalkeeper but Kudou Michiya selected Endou again. Saginuma felt disappointed but Goujin cheered him up, knowing his feelings very well. Later, Kudou warned Saginuma and Nishikage that they should be ready to enter the field at any time and they looked at each other like they were rivals. Kudou told the team story about three brothers who were asked by their father to break an arrows. They easily broke one by one but couldn't do it again with three connected together. It was the lesson to learn for Saginuma and Nishikage. They joined Endou in front of the Japans's goal as defenders, intending to protect it together. When Li Hao shot again with his Tenkuu Hayabusadan, Saginuma used Drill Smasher, Nishigake Ouke no Tate and Endou Fuujin Raijin Ghost. However they couldn't synchronize and they started to blame each other. Nosaka had to kick the ball off in order to protect the goal until they succeeded. When Endou explained them later that playing soccer should be fun, even when losing, they finally managed to combine their own techniques into one powerful The Asura. Which in turn was successful in blocking Li Hao's shot. Now Inazuma Japan could launch the attack on the Chinese goal. When Saginuma saw Goujin entering the field, he didn't seem to approve it or believe that he could be useful in that tough situation they got. Later he appreciated his hard work and smiled after Goujin shot with his new technique Fire Lemonade Rising. China kept attacking all the time, not giving a moment to rest. They used their new tactics to block Inazuma Japan and attacked, forcing Saginuma, Nishikage and Endou to use The Asura again and again. When Haizaki scored the third goal for Japan with Shark The Deep, Saginuma smiled, saying the this shot was still ocean-based, even if it was not related with penguins. At the end of the match, Li Hao and Zhou Xing were trying to shoot with Tenhou Chiretsu. Their powerful shot almost overwhelmed the three goalkeepers but Asuto, Nosaka and Haizaki came to help them and together protected the goal.

After the preliminaries ended, Inazuma Japan participated in a send-off party at the luxury ship, which was held be the World Soccer Association. Later it was revealed that first Japan's opponent would be Spanish team Muteki no Giant and 4 their members were special guests at the party.

Before the departure to Russia, Saginuma visited Eisei Gakuen with Hiroto and Tatsuya. Everyone welcomed them warmly and congratulated their winning when Kira Seijirou himself appeared suddenly, wishing them luck in a very special way. The flight passed off in a pleasant atmosphere. Saginuma was eating heartily delicacies that Mansaku Yuuichirou and Goujin brought on a plane. When they finally landed in Russia they met at the airport Spanish and American teams. Later to their much surprise Froy Girikanan, the captain of Perfect Spark welcomed them warmly and informed that there were no disciples among their team. When after a long day of visiting Kazan, they finally arrived at their campground in Kazan Soccer Center, they met their physical trainer Sekiya Tomoari. Soon they started their training before the upcoming match and Sekiya prepared for everyone personalized exercise schedule. Sagiuma tried really hard to improve his goalkeeper's skills.

During the match against Spain Saginuma was sitting on the bench. Clario scored quickly the first goal when Endou's technique wasn't complete yet. When Clario attacked once again, Saginuma shouted Endou's name with the other teammates to support his efforts and finally he protected the goal using new technique Diamond Hand. However, when Clario managed to score the second goal, it was really shocking for everyone, they thought that Diamond Hand was enough to stop it. Later Saginuma watched his teammates with a great excitement, while they were using new tactic triangle passes, thanks which they took possession of the ball and kept passing the opponents. When Endou used Nishikage's Casting Arm to stop Clario, everyone was shocked that he managed to learn it. Saginuma couldn't believe that Endou evolved his Diamond Arm into Diamond Punch just like that in a moment. Later he got excited when Japan figured out how to take down the opponent's goalkeeper. However soon Bergamo Regult and Luther Fandam took the advantage for Spain when they scored the third goal using Twin Lancer, which surprised everyone and blinded. When at the end of the match Asuto rushed through the field all alone, dribbling and passing everyone on his way, Saginuma watched him unable to understand what was going on. It turned to be successful strategy, when he managed to score the 3rd goal for Japan and the match ended with a draw.

The match with America was approaching fast and it was revealed that Star Unicorn beat Russia with a score 2-1. When Inazuma Japan finished their practice, Sekiya let everyone to spend their free time in a way they wanted and Saginuma went with Nishikage to the gym. Some time later new member Aphrodi joined the team and made a huge impression on everyone. He challenged players for a 4 vs. 4 mini game and coach ordered Saginuma to play along with Tatsuya, Hiroto and Atsuya. The match was fierce and even, Saginuma listened to Tatsuya's orders eagerly however at the end Aphrodi scored a goal and Saginuma wasn't able to blocked it.

The match with Navy Invader began badly for Japan. After a few minutes they quickly got the ball and shot towards the opponent's goal. When Endou used Diamond Hand, Saginuma was sure that he would block it however, he failed. Soon Japan scored the first goal thanks to Aphrodi's shot and when he intended to use again Heaven's Time, Navy Invader easily got through it. Saginuma was deeply shocked watching this, he couldn't understand how they managed to break it. Later they used tactic Jiraigen and when Fudou left the field hit by the explosion, Saginuma wondered how they were doing this. Soon after, Sakanoue was assaulted and Saginuma with the other teammates shouted his name in fear however, he couldn't break free and was hit just like Fudou and Hiura before. When later Aphrodi used again Heaven's Time to uncover the truth about tactic Jiraigen, Saginuma was struck dumb when he saw small tornadoes located on the field. Watching later Tatsuya, who was praised by coach and trainer for his diverse abilities, Saginuma recalled his memories when he saw Tatsuya talking with Hiroto. As he stated he changed his position to be useful to the team and strengthen Japan. Saginuma was impressed with his words and felt motivated to do something as well. He was sure there was definitely something that he could do for his team. Finally atfer a long and hard match Inazuma Japan won with a score 4-3.

When some time later Umihara Norika unexpectedly joined the team, Saginuma seemed to be deeply worried. She was a goalkeeper, like him, Endou and Nishikage. Saginuma spent his free time thinking about what he could do to be useful for the team. During the training, he went to the coach and asked him to use him for the game, no matter if he would be a goalkeeper or not. When another member appeared before the team, Saginuma said that he was wrong, thinking that he would be a starter just like that. Kozoumaru Sasuke suggested that Saginuma and Atsuya should show him their skills so they played mini game one-on-one, which Kozoumaru won scoring a goal. Later Saginuma watched Norika training with Endou. When she stopped his shot with her new technique, Saginuma was shocked and angry, unable to believe what he just saw.

Before the match against Russia started, coach announced that Saginuma was going to play as a midfielder. This news seemed to be very shocking for Goujin and Iwato, who doubted whether it was a good decision but Saginuma felt very confident about his abilities. The match began and soon Saginuma had a chance to show his skills when Hiura passed him. Viktor Sedova rushed towards him and easily stole the ball, Saginuma could only snort and ran further. Later Kozoumaru unexpectedly stopped after he was fighting with Froy, he seemed to be shaky as if something happened. Saginuma along with Atsuya approached him, asking what was wrong. Soon, Kozoumaru revealed his wild technique Over Cyclone and scored the first goal for Japan. Saginuma's plays didn't impress commentators, who stated that he was lackluster as a midfielder. Later Russia initiated their tactic Aurora Wave and it turned out that they used tear gas against Japan. Saginuma got angry and decided to punish them. In particular two Russian players which Sakanoue suspected of using dirty tricks. He approached Zaur Salenko and almost fouled him when they clashed and Saginuma took off his eleven band. Later he looked at Simon Zhitova, threatened him and broke his band. Coach was delighted with his behavior because it confirmed that during the rough matches Saginuma developed, unlike the normal matches during which he didn't have much to show. When it was only five minutes to the end of the match, coach decided to replace Saginuma by Haizaki and he left the field. Soon Japan tied 2-2, when Haizaki scored the goal using Shark The Deep. However, Russia managed to won back and got another point after they used again Aurora Wave, this time spreading sleeping gas against the opponent.

Trivia[]

  • In one of Hino Akihiro's tweets[1], he revealed Saginuma's alien name, Desarm, originated from 砂漠 (read as "Sabaku"), which, in turn, means desert, which was then promptly turned into デザート (read as "Dezaato"), the Japanese pronunciation of desert.
    • The Kanji character for "Sa", 砂, in his surname means sand, a further reference to the desert naming origin.
      • His alien dub name, Dvalin, is derived from Dvalinn, an Old Norse mythology dwarf whose names translates to "The dormant one", a reference Desarm's personality whose battle spirit is awakened only when facing strong opponents.
  • He is one of the three players to have Chara Change.
  • He has a habit of rambling in a very stiff language.
  • In Inazuma Eleven 2: Kyoui no Shinryakusha, he has the highest untrained Kick stat in his Chara Change form.
  • In the Inazuma Eleven anime, when playing for Neo Japan, he was the player who copied the most hissatsu techniques, them being Illusion Ball, Dash Storm, God Knows, and Triangle Z.
  • In Inazuma Eleven GO 2: Chrono Stone, his adult form retains the MFicon position of his young form.
    • This implies he decided to become a MFicon after playing for Neo Japan as one.
  • In the Inazuma Eleven series, Saginuma is a 3rd Year icon student.
    • This causes a plot hole for the Ares and Orion series, causing his age to be reduced by one year to ensure he could still participate in the FF and FFI tournaments.
  • In the Inazuma Eleven anime, despite mentioning he was originally a FWicon, in the Inazuma Eleven Ares no Tenbin series, he is a GKicon.
  • His title is Passionate Adversarial Keeper ((あつ)逆境(ぎゃっきょう)キーパー, Atsuki Gyakkyō Kīpā).
  • In Inazuma Eleven Orion no Kokuin, even though he was selected as a reserve GKicon for Inazuma Japan, he never played as one.
  • In the Inazuma Eleven anime series, he is the only player to have played all four positions.
