I wasn't expecting Kuon to betray Team W, but then again this Blue Lock where its every man for himself. I guess he doesn't have any faith in Team Z beating Team V and they were going to get eliminated anyway. He took matters into his own hands to secure his future at Blue Lock by cutting a deal with the annoying Wanima brothers of Team W and make himself the top scorer on Team Z. Now is the time for Isagi to step up as a leader and take control of the game. Will Chigiri finally get involved and stop worrying about getting hurt again?

hilarious that you spoiled it for everyone here

As an amime only, I'm pretty sure that was pretty obvious due to amount of time dedicated to the MC trying to make him be confident in himself.

I still understand your sentiment though.

The biggest weakness here continues to be the characters. Very needlessly obnoxious characters shown this episode, especially the Wanima brothers. I could sniff Kuon's betrayal from a mile away, once he scored the hat trick (well tbh the long shower was already suspicious).

Obviously, we're going to get a comeback victory, most likely next episode. I really do hope this show can surprise me at least once.

Doesn't Kuon realise that Team Z will beat the shit out of him once they go back to the changing rooms?

Eh Kuon is a traitor, I knew there was something with these three goals from him, I don't know how they'll do in a 12 vs 10 match with a disadvantage in the score, but if they win Kuon will cry and it will be well deserved

bro wtf is this animation and pacing 💀 it was funny how bad it was this episode.. the plot twist felt underwhelming because of these issues.

also the goalie character is literally useless, i doubt he will ever block more than 2 goals

That Raichi guy reminds me of Bakugo.

Is Kuon really betray Team Z? Or is he just pretend to betray to fool Team W? I have a feeling that he has his own plan that no one knows, maybe only Ego knows.
he is really betraying team z. tho something will happen at the end of the match

I thought Kuon scoring the first two was oddly suspicious; I was rooting for him too until the betrayal ;(... Sigh. I hope Chigiri will do something next episode since they have been focusing on him a bit too much.

oouh the vibes are gonna be awkward between the boys and Kuon. Pretty enjoyable eps so far.
I began on this anime solely cause Bachira resembled Kuwana from Blue Period but once I found out Bachira was a male.. my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined

His betrayal made no sense to me. If he literally arranged the same thing with the other team, then it would be 3x0 and they would keep playing seriously and win in the end, with no need to betray his own team

Kuon thinks that they can't beat their next opponents with team Z, so he betrayed team Z, so now Kuon is guaranteed to advance to the next selection because he has the most goals.

#1 In TOP 10 Anime Betrayals So Far.

First Free Kick, First Yellow Card 'n that traitor
what more you ask?

No bad, It was do or die match for 'em like always but they were explaining, "these two scored 4 goals like, goal ain't a shit.

When that traitor scored 3 goals back to back (including free kick) I thought their strategy is working well but...It was so messed up, it makes no sense, to me atleast but it's Blue Lock, only 1 player will survive here.

Some dialogues were really cringy, and some scenes in manga were more impactful, I'll say that again but everything else was just fine, last two minutes were really good, I'm excited for next episode.

Nope, it can't be! Kuon was the mother hen of the group! The innocence and purity in which there was no evil or ego, only the desire to win with her teammates! This really hurt me and took me by surprise. The mangaka raffled it off with this :')

Never trust characters with eyes permanently closed. That said, what stops the others from breaking Kuon's ankles (and ending his career in the process) once the match ends?

Raichi's VA is Yoshitsugu Matsuoka, not Nobuhiko Okamoto.
If anything, Raichi sounds exactly like Inosuke from Kimetsu no Yaiba (same personality and intonation).

Annoying twin as their enemy. Redhead bro was their ex teammate. Yo that must be hurt. Then, woah he really betrayed them. My suspicion prove to be right when the focus changed to how he drink that water. After bathing hard you can't just drinking the water like that. Score set at Blue Lock, nice variation to the plot. But still its too early to call it an end. And Kuon might taste a great experience about how MC-kun can turn the impossibility to a possibility in a blink of an eye. Right, Chigiri?

Damn, something is definitely fishy with Kuon. Judging from the pattern, looks like the next episode will be about Chigiri?

a blue ballling episode.

seems like real action in next episode.

something really felt off at the start, the betrayal and kuon scoring 3 goals suddenly started making sense.

i'm feeling positive that chigiri is gonna do something in next episode. we have been getting a lot of focus on his struggles in the past 2 episodes. we all know they will win or else there's nothing to show lol.

the episodes where action isn't happening do feel bland. episode 5 was so hype but this wasn't and i'm thinking the game will be concluded in next episode so we can expect plenty action in next one. so looking forward to that.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

That's a...uhh dumb move. Nobody is going to trust him now. Also, how is he so sure that the other teams will agree to let him score goals in exchange for information. What if Isagi scores two more in the remaining matches? And even if he somehow manages to move on to the next round, his new team will be cautious. He will be ostracized.
