oh man.. when the coach started to preach about ego and essence of striker, my head keep thinking about that monster named Erling Haaland.
It is difficult to deny his principle when there are many monster strikers in the world right now. This anime will one day inspire some new Haaland or Ibramovich in the future. |

They kind of toned it down compare to manga. Kira truly lashed out his anger there believing he can do better and its not his fault, and here he listened to Ego, made scary face to Isagi and walking out from the room just fine.

At first I disliked that one dude that said that he "was born in the wrong country", but then the show kept going and I ended up agreeing with him, about the only thing I learned from this episode was that if you want to be a World Cup winner then you should be born in South America or Europe since Japan is doing the best they can to tank their own talent for the sake of creating the one mythical ubermench super saiyan Japanese player they think will help them win.

So maybe Blue Lock is the one inspired Squid Game instead?

I am just surprised that there are people still expecting the show to actually about soccer.
I mean, this is written by Kaneshiro Muneyuki. The soccer element is just a vehicle for that man to do what he always have been doing, which is showing off crazy people that he came up with and then break them in various ways. Last edited by shmaster; 2022-10-20 at 01:01. |

Had to look up the author. It's the same one who did the Kamisama no Iutoori series.
No wonder I had that nagging feeling of familiarity with the roughness and craziness of the characters. Ok yeah, it's definitely just a survival game coated with soccer now. Gonna go with that moving forward. |

Since the goal can be simplified to "Win, at least make it to Top 3", going with approach of focusing on one striker carrying team like Barou sounds better. Downside would be if one of participating team turned out got more than single ace player, even so still the low risk fast method to pave way to at least Top 3.

the match was good and it had a nice finish but I still think is silly with all "detroying everybody dreams" when they lose. I mean it's not like niko can't change his position to midfielder with his eyes.
He can be a world class midfielder unless he refuse to change his position. Like I said I doubt they have the power to just make them stop playing. Let's see if I get eliminated of the blue lock and become a top player in another position, say midfielder like modric and I'm so good that I play in a top team like madrid, city, bayern, I score too, I win a ballon d'or but then I can't play with the japan team?, yeah I doubt that. |

While the winner got guaranteed spot at national team, as striker, which would lead to better chance to get recommendation for top-class team. So its not exactly why everyone didn't think of becoming midfielder or defender (one of the rules is top scorer can trade 'goals' for better foods, also top scorer can escape elimination in case their team unable to advance, so position probably matter less in grand scheme) but more of do they content with their career stuck in local team? As far Real Madrid and Bayern Munchen talent scouting go I doubt they will seriously care about random J-League team compare to someone with permanent slot on national team. Even Ego mentioned that playing baseball is the quickest way to fame in Japan than soccer.

Lately there had been more and more japanese players in europa, kubo and tomiyasu are doing a great season in real sociedad and arsenal, minamino won a champions with the liverpool and kamada won the europa league with the eintracht and none of them are strikers and I doubt they were scouted in the national team. There are more and more talent found in backyard leagues now. Halaand wasn't found in the national team. So yeah it's silly to say their dream is over if they can still try in others way. Well in the end this is anime and they need to add drama and impact and all that. |

It never cross my mind on a betrayal like that even when the rule is there, even less that it was kuon. Nice twist there.
So maybe it was this way how they beat "the king" team because these guys are even more filler than team Y. |
