Oml the Engrish leveled up another level with Loki's VA joining the fray. The "if you open your legs up easily, people will think you're a loose guy" line cracks me up. Seeing Rin getting pissed off at Bachira and the other team members' antics and idiocy was pretty funny too. And Shidouuuu my boy! Didn't expect him to be voiced by my favorite VA (Yuuichi Nakamura) but I definitely ain't complaining. Sad Kunigami didn't pass the second selection - other than Bachira, he was my favorite. I liked his personality and aspiration even though some may find him and/or his dream childish and boring.

Overall, gonna give this show a 7.5/10. Very fun watch. Didn't like most of the characters in the beginning, but the show as well as the characters' chemistries/dynamics picked up during the Team Z vs. Team V match. The second selection arc was great, especially with the thrilling game format, but it definitely could've been much more enjoyable if only the animation didn't drastically drop in quality. To top it all off, the edginess and cringe dialogue makes the show all the more amusing to watch. Love how this show doesn't take itself so seriously. Could've been an easy 8/10 anime for me if only the animation was better. Fingers crossed that next season's animation would improve drastically, especially for the upcoming big match. Pleasantly surprised Nagi's spinoff is also getting animated - into a movie, no less - but I'm definitely looking forward to it as well as the second season!

Interesting final with Ego burning up his speech toward those diamond in rough about another big match awaiting their asses, which honestly understandable since BL project also under the pressure to being closed up by the big boss. A bit sad with Kunigami, not surprise with Raichi tho. Since i saw him on the latest manga cover, so no way he's not passing. But why the monk dude also passed the selection? Dang what a twist. So i can't wait to see more of those new guys getting a screen time, and the producers grant it by another season already. Guess this is a big W result for BL enjoyer, and many more announcement making this whole week actually feels like a grand bliss. So yeah, see you around at the next season!

The hypest (is this even a word) anime this season. While watching this I found myself shouting and clapping from all the excitement. I loved the atmosphere and the characters, everyone of which could be protagonists of their own. The designs were fire too. How they used the aura to indicate someone devouring someone else was a really nice addiction. I especially loved Ego's speeches about luck and talent, they can be applied anywhere, not only soccer. And the music was really nice too, really set the mood. I've listened to the full version of the second opening countless times. The one thing that could be improved is the animation. But to me the visuals were still satisfactory.
Post anime depression hit me as I finished this episode. But we've got season 2 and episode Nagi movie coming up, so we've got something to look forward to!

That engrish was gold, last episode felt like a good wrap up
I love Blue lock's concept of Ego and not teamwork, etc but the dialogues are way too over the top
I thought the selection process were streched as hell, 2nd half made it just a bit better.
Visuals and music was good, overall good and engaging story

Hype!
A little unfortunate they cut out the Shido vs Kunigami match but I suppose they didn't have enough time to put it into the same episode.

Regardless, excited that S2 is in the works! This was easily my favorite anime to come out of 2022 without a doubt.

Damn these guys got out skilled in every aspect the 17-year-old French kid made it seem like Chigiri has been walking all this time not running😂😂. Rin seriously wanted to win I respect him for that. I am lowkey rooting for Rin now not Isagi. Going from such intensity to these guys doing homework is funny🤣🤣. I always get goosebumps when they walk through the door and it freezes. Honestly, Nagi is just amazing as well I love how he was a Neji at first but now he is realising he needs to be Rock Lee 2. Damn Kunigami didn't make it he was a good guy.
Damn, we are VS his older brother OH MY DAYS I CAN JUST TELL NEXT SEASON IS GOING TO SEND SHIVERS DOWN MY SPINE. Yeah damn, Isagi really has changed since the beginning of the anime. A lot of the team Z members got left behind I didn't expect that tbh.

Golpe de realidad que le dieron a nuestros chicos, pero, una de mis predicciones de hizo realidad, Blue Lock ahora jugara como equipo, y nada menos que contra la sub-20 de Sae Itoshi. 🔥🔥🔥

A roller coaster ride of emotions. A special approach to the game of football, good animations and a lot of interesting players and moments.
I'm looking forward to the 2nd season.

The first season of Blue Lock anime has ended. Can't wait for the next kick-off! The U-20 Japan vs Blue Lock eleven. It's my favorite match in the manga so far. I'll give it a 8/10 for this season.

Best episode in the season. We got a lot of the ol characters back incluing the most hated Igaguri (that was so unexpected). Its fun to watch this episode to see how many of your favorite characters got disqualified like Kunigami and Kuon. We got a quick football match of Isagi's squad getting shit on. Thats the last episode of the season and holy shit was it good.

Shidou seems like an important character later on, but what an asshole. That said, realistically being teenager athletes handpicked from across the country, I expected more guys like him in the competition who would cause trouble.

A crusing defeat, but who expected any different? Anyways this episode
Anyways got introduced to a ton of new players as well, blue locks best is assembled right now. Except for Kunigami, who's eviction surprised me.

Anyways this episode served as a great set up into next season.

Overall this season was a 8.5/10 for me, really good with epic moments. Rounded up to 9/10 for MAL scores. Once you understand that this show isn't an actual respresentation of football, you can appreciate it for what it is.

Those who can't should stick to Aoshi or some shit. Funny the football purists refused to drop it since they claim to hate it😂what bozos

Ryusei Shidou is finally introduced, the U-20 arc is gonna be fire. The season 2 and The Nagi spin-off movie is already announced. Talking about season 1 though, i read the manga before the anime and i was anticipating the anime and honestly it was kinda disappointing, i really liked the first episode and thought the production would only get better but it got worse with more still frames, no animation and 3-d CGI. Still it was bearable enough that i could watch it, hopefully they can improve this in the upcoming seasons. The osts were fire though.

Man, every week I was waiting patiently for a new episode. Enjoyed my half year of Blue Lock. I was a long time ago I watched a show that got me on the edge of my seat every week.

Looking forward to the second season. What a great few months for football anime (Aoi and Blue Lock).

they fucking killed ichigo for Reo and the clown that was lowest rank?  he was too kind   for this world of edgelords so it makes sense i guess 

i was pretty close to dropping this show with it's over the top premise but once you put aside how dumb it is and just live for it's hype shounen-ness  of edgey glowing eyes it's highly entertaining if only the animation could keep up with it (visually the show looked nice but those were just still shots)

anyho big fan of new character drops and the designs were all the charts but i kinda feel like im already seeing  personality repeats with the amount of the 2nd season cast 


the hook for S2 was good so im looking forward to more dumb not soccer soccer

7.5 for this season  as someone that normally does not care for this sport in anime typically i can't say this one really won me over compared to something like Ao Ashi but again this ant soccer

The first Blue lock season is over with a good ending to leave us wanting a second season that will cover the Blue Lock vs Sub 20 match and characters that we want to know what will happen to him in the future as kunigami and what can happen to the group of isagi in the near future left us with many questions that I hope will be answered. They already confirmed the 2nd Season and a Movie of the Life of Nagi and hopefully they are good stories

Bachira's aura went from blue to yellow as well. I think the aura change is meant to symbolize their awakening.

AMAZINGGG I WAS NOT EXPECTING FOR ISAGIS TEAM TO LOSE BUT ANYTHING WORKS IG!

To be honest there was absolutely no chance for them to win since their opponents were an international team. Like Ego said the national Japanese team is still very weak compared to internal ones so how could the Blue Lock team win.
I am so excited for the next season to be released but I hope the animation will get better tho ⚰️

So many years of speaking English and only now am I realizing that I have been pronouncing Wednesday wrong all along. Ya learn something new every day.

That Top 5 match didn't last very long now, did it? For the U-20 match, they should focus a bit more on their physique.

If S2 is as good or better than Part 2 of S1, then I'm most certainly looking forward to it.
