barou's goal was so hype and i completely forgot about gagamaru's save, that caught me off-guard and was a really cool reference to higuita. aiku focus was good too.

was a reference to this iconic save from a player who was also a striker-keeper btw;
@ryzxgum i know about this save i watch football a lot, but i dont think it was a direct reference it was kinda different but it could be a reference, who knows

I could write a book about how much I love Barou taking off his shirt but no one would want to read that LOL This make me realized that the Blue Lock skintight uniform must be hard to take off (and put on) otherwise we'd see a lot more of this.

Anyway, just as the previous episode Shidou compare scoring a goal to impregnation, this episode also has a metaphor provided by Oliver Aiku, but it's much more subtle.

As implied from the episode name "Flowers", Aiku seeing himself as being "deflowered" by adult when he was young, now he can't be striker anymore. But what can he do is to ensure that the next generation striker won't be deflowered like him. It's such a careful way to make a metaphor to defloration, but it's necessary to not make it too sexual. He's also the only player that have enough evidence to assume that he's not a virgin anymore (as mentioned in previous episode's additional time).

Enough for serious stuffs, now can I write about how I'd actually pay a lot to visit maid cafe run by Barou?
@phantomfandom defloweration just work in english not japanese. so the mangaka don't intend any sexual thing about like shido impregnatation. defloweration should be "graduation" if you want subtle about it in japanese

@hitori_n there's comedy anime where two guys enter the bathroom (or sauna) and the flowers outside the room fall, sadly I already forget the name (I watch it as a short clip in YouTube about gay moment in anime, not the whole anime) but I'll tell you as soon as possible when I know (I already ask for help in "find the anime" thread)

Damn, Aiku had Indio Solari as his coach. Crazy stuff.

But seriously, what in the world was that Additional Time? Barou arguably having his coolest moment till date and they disrespect him like that? Bruh... Like come on, dude even forgot the anime he was in and ended up doing a Black Flash with his shot.

Se todo gol tivesse uma animação que nem o gol do Barou, esse anime teria sido melhor avaliado apesar dos JPEG em campo.
