Summary
Amemiya Taiyou, or Sol Daystar, is a supporting character in Inazuma Eleven GO, and the captain of Arakumo Gakuen. He plays as a Forward or Midfielder, and is regarded as a highly skilled and technical player, commonly dubbed as the genius soccer player of the decade. Despite this, Taiyou was contracted with a rare illness since childhood that prevented him from extensive physical effort that could endanger his life, and was therefore stuck in hospital for most of his life with Nurse Fuyuka looking after him. Taiyou however cannot keep himself from playing soccer as the sport he loves, and often sneaks out to play and hone his skills, despite the risk to his health.
This leads to his eventual meeting with Tenma Matsukaze, and the match between Arakumo Gakuen and Raimon in the semi-finals of the Holy Road Tournament, who quickly become good friends. Later in the series, Taiyou is eventually relieved of his illness, and joins Raimon to help fight against Protocol Omega and the erasure of soccer throughout time. With his Mixi Max with Shokatsu Koumei, he is also one of the members of Chrono Storm, the strongest team in history, as 'the midfielder with unparalleled accuracy'.

Keshin Armed drains his stamina quicker than usual, and must be used in shorter bursts.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Solo Hissatsu:
- Sunshine Storm: Amemiya’s signature hissatsu shoot in Inazuma Eleven GO Chrono Stone, where he slices through storm clouds using a powerful light, allowing the sun’s rays to pierce through them and charge the ball with fiery solar energy. Once charged, Amemiya kicks the ball towards the goal.
- Ryuusei Blade: A hissatsu shoot used by Amemiya in the games, Amemiya jumps into the air with the ball, and strikes it with a powerful roundhouse kick, filling it with atomic energy and shooting it into the goal from above like a meteor.
- Atomic Flare: A hissatsu shoot used by Amemiya in the games, Amemiya summons a miniature dying sun, to which he charges the ball with its energy and strikes it from above at the goal.
- Presto Turn: A hissatsu dribble used by Amemiya in the games, Amemiya confuses the target with ball tricks, as he feints them into thinking he is approaching from their right, moving swiftly to their left before they can react with increased short burst speed. A whirlwind is left from the rush that blows opponents away.
- Crazy Sunlight: A defensive hissatsu used by Amemiya in the games, Amemiya forms a sphere of light from his hands, which he releases in front of the target, blinding them with a dazzling light in order to steal the ball.
- Spark Edge Dribble: Amemiya slides on the ground with the ball so fast that it creates sparks from the friction, which then creates an explosive impact ta the opponent, throwing them overhead.
- Chouwaza!: An in-game skill in which Amemiya can choose to increase the power of his shots by about a quarter, at the expense of energy being increased by 50%
- Long Shooter: An in-game skill which makes Amemiya’s longer distance attacks lose less power from air resistance.
Keshin: A Keshin, or Avatar, is the physical manifestation of one’s spiritual energy and heart, with its strength and abilities determined by the spirit of its user. These Keshin’s are brought out with intense training and feeling among individuals, making them only usable by the extremely skilled. These Keshin’s take the form of a large anthropomorphic creature that appears visibly behind their summoner and with this Keshin summoned, the user has the physical force and power of it on their side, increasing their strength and momentum as well as gaining new hissatsu or abilities. In some cases, however, Keshins can only be brought out a limited number of times and if destroyed, they will require time to restore for the user to summon them back (Though is usually only a few minutes or so within the matches). However, Keshin drawing is possible which allows teammates to give a portion of their spiritual energy to draw out and strengthen another person’s Keshin. Keshin fusion is also possible, in which users can fuse their souls to create a stronger keshin. Keshins also protect the user’s mind and spirit, preventing them from being mentally deterred from their passions or mind-controlled (Note that it does not protect from any other mental attacks). In the Danball Senki crossover, it is also stated that Keshins can prevent their users from being completely erased from space-time, though only if their spirits are strong and do not give in to despai
- Keshin Armed: Keshin Armed is a technique that further allows the user to strengthen themselves using their Keshins, to which the user equips their Keshin onto them. This raises their speed, power and grants them extra abilities. The user, however, must be able to communicate with or understand their keshin to use this. It has been stated that Kenshin Armed is stronger than Mixi Maxing, however at the expense of more energy, and therefore has more of a time limit[8].
Amemiya’s Keshin:
Taiyou Shin Apollo, or Sun Deity Apollo, is Amemiya’s Keshin, resembling that of a four-armed titan based on the Sun god Apollo. Apollo is a main asset to Taiyou, who uses it commonly in order to score if he wants to break through defences via power. Its flame is described to dazzle anyone who sees it and is a particularly bright keshin on the field. When its power was drawn out by 4 other Keshin users on the Arakumo team, it was able to match that of Sei Kishi Arthur, the combination of Majin Pegasus Arc, Kensei Lancelot and Sousha Maestro (The Keshins of Tenma, Tsurugi and Shindou), though was eventually defeated.
Hissatsu:
- Sunshine Force: A Keshin Hissatsu shoot, where Taiyou gathers light energy around his swaying hands, as Apollo is summoned behind him. Apollo then uses its four arms to gather giant fireballs that combine and form around the ball, resembling that of a star, as Amemiya descends to strike it at the goal.
- Hi no Okatebi: Apollo’s Keshin skill in-game, where teammates' Fire-based skills are increased while Apollo is summoned by Amemiya.
Souten no Hasha Gyokuryuu, or Jewelled Dragon Cychr, is a keshin granted to Amemiya through his Mixi Max form with Shokatsu Koumei in Chrono Stone. This keshin is shown as abnormally large compared to others and is deemed the ‘Heavenly Protector’ and spirit of the wood. It has also been shown that this Keshin can induce Mixi Maxing itself, though it is unknown if Amemiya can do this too.
Hissatsu:
- Tempest: A dribble hissatsu, to which Gyokuryuu lets out a mighty roar and conjures a storm. With this, lightning strikes the opponent and allows for the user to get past them.
- Shoot Block: Gyokuryuu's Keshin skill that allows users to more potently take the ball from opponents.
Mixi Max Forms:
Mixi Max: Shoukatsu Koumei: Amemiya possesses a Mixi Max transformation with Shokatsu Koumei , or Zhuge Liang, a Chinese warfare strategist who works with Liu Bei and is regarded as one of the most intelligent people in history. With this transformation, both Amemiya and Koumei’s auras have been fused so Amemiya gains her power, intelligence, and spirit. When this transformation is active, their features merge as Amemiya’s hair turns purple and becomes bundled. Unlike traditional Mixi Maxing, this form was bestowed upon him by Koumei and her Keshin, which allows him to become the 'Midfielder with unparalleled accuracy' in Chrono Storm, the Strongest Eleven in History. Amemiya can also likely use Keshin Armed on top of his Mixi Max form to obtain even higher power, though it drains energy at a faster rate.
Mixi Max Hissatsu:
- Tenchi Raimei: A shoot granted through the Koumei Mixi Max. Amemiya raises his hand, to which a large chunk of the earth erupts from underneath him, creating a high platform he stands on. He then jumps upwards even further to conjured storm clouds with the ball and strikes it with an electrically charged lightning bolt that breaks through the earth and aims itself to the goal.
- TP Plus 30: An ability that grants a higher energy cap to the user, allowing them to perform more without getting tired.
