I can't define this ending as unexpected or expected. Isagi was expecting the winning goal as it happened, but everything was shaping up for a goal from Rin, to destroy Sae. Either way, it was amazing. Excited for the next season.

I totally didn't think they'd win until Rin went nuts. The whole time I thought they'd lose, but gain the respect and love of the public.

The Wild Card blue my mind. I guess there were wild card games being run simultaneously.

YOOOOOOOO THIS EPISODE WAS ABSOLUTE PEAK!!!! So this is where the entire budget for Season 2 went to 😂😅 In all seriousness tho, that 1v1 between the Itoshi brothers at the end was some Mappa level animation! Holy Moly! Not to mention the entire stadium's reaction to Isagi's winning goal was such a sight to behold! They made sure to end this season on the highest of notes!!

I really hope they take all the time they need to make Season 3 to be as good as this episode was or at least as good as Season 1, cuz Phase 2 looks so incredibly promising!! It would be a shame if everyone disregarded the anime again for the reasons that led to ppl caling it Frame Lock.

Either way I am super stoked that Kunigami is gonna be back!! Always thought it was odd how they kicked him out of Blue Lock off screen like that. I do wonder if he is still gonna be a hero going forward or did he turn into a vilain after losing? Cannot wait for Blue Lock to take to the world stage!!

what I criticized in all the other episodes, these were phenomenal, this experience was incredible, everything they didn't spend on other episodes was spent on this one, and this ending, for those who read the manga and those who didn't, it's impossible not to be hyped

Okay this last episode was kinda legendary not gonna lie, it almost makes you forget about the production issues in the previous eps lol. Rin's "tongue form" was funny to see on the field but all of that just allowed Isagi to score the best goal ever seen in this anime yet and at last second secure the win for his team, now he has great ambitions of course and we'll see how it goes, a genuine rivalry between Rin and Isagi was also born this match... and they're even teasing some new character, I can't wait to see what's next but hopefully they'll have more budget next time...

they really put on a show this last episode . glad it is well animated , the tension , music , BGM and voice acting has goes extra mile for this episode. The commentator and the spectator having a roar after that last goal is just shivering moment.One of the great scene in sports anime for sure heck

O melhor episódio de toda temporada disparado. O gol foi arrepiante, de virada, nos acréscimos, porém todo mundo sabe que um time com 11 atacantes não dá jogo nunca.

Overall the season was kinda bad because of the bad animation, but atleast they did an exceptional ending, probably using all the budget they had.

Having a good ending can really make up for a lot of the downsides through the way.

I just hope that they don't mess up the animation for the next season. This anime deserves better animation and with the 2026 World Cup coming up, it will do even greater numbers than it already has.

HOLY FUCKKKKKKKK THIS WAS FUCKING PEAKKKKKKKKKKKK MAN THE LAST TIME I HAD GOOSEBUMPS AND CHILLS LIKE THIS WAS WHEN BLACK CLOVER OPENING 1 PLAYED WHEN CAPTAIN YAMI USED MANA ZONE DARK DIMENSIONAL SLASH EQUINOX LIKE BROOOOO THE MOVIE QUALITY SAKUGA WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD MAN im so happy that this last episode the final glory moment was given love man Thank you animators at 8bit thank you thank you thank you!!!!🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

The crowd chanting “Nippon” while Rin and Sae were going at it gave me so much chills man I felt like I was there in the crowd watching these 2 go at it🔥🔥🔥🔥

Isagi’s goal was the greatest shot in anime sports history idgaf man that shit gave me goosebumps bc of the amount of replays they kept showing of the shot like I couldn’t have asked for better man this was phenomenally great🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹😩😩😩

Lastly I’ll always find it hilarious that the girl who didn’t show a single bit of interesting was screaming at the last goal that Isagi made her celebrating was the exact face I was making she’s us ong😭🔥🔥🔥

That goal was the greatest thing I've ever seen in an anime , everything aside Isagi's goal redeemed the entire season and we're all in for next one , The Neo Egoist League !! Also Kuigami's reveal in the end gave me goosebumps

THE PEAK LOCK IS REAL 🔥⚽

A goal redeemed a terrible work in preparation for years yeah right



Otherwise without being part of the bandwagon and being objective, this season was terrible as a whole but few exceptions like this episode and the Shidou episodes (11 I think) made it not a complete mistake.

The last episode was good, definitely not a perfect episode like people say it is, maybe if it had the whole episode animated well and not the last 5 minutes only it'd be possible but with that it's just a good episode, solid 8.5/10.

Doesn't excuse the terrible episodes we had the whole season, 8bit had 2 years to make something out of the highest selling manga of 2023 and they did so bad a lot of people dropped it during the middle.

Hopefully next season won't have the same structure with a few good episodes and the rest that makes you wanna stop watching anime all together.

Always remember, this is a sports manga. So please explain to me WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON??? We got this dude DROOLING ON THE FUCKING FIELD WITH HIS TONGUE OUT... bro. This show man... and this studio had the FUCKING NERVE TO PUT THE LICKING SOUND EFFECTS WHEN HE CAME FACE-TO-FACE WITH OLIVER... LIKE HELLO???

But yeah, again, we in a shounen, so Rin whipping his tongue out and drooling all over the field is all that it takes to make him untouchable... unless THIS DUDE SHIDOU JUST FOULS HIM???? But even with that foul, Rin LOCKS THE FUCK IN... and misses the shot and passes it straight to Sae... LMAOOOOOOOOOOO. Though, I gotta hand it to them, only a second into the second half of the episode AND GOD THEY MOVED... IN 2D??? NOT CGI??? HELLO???

And that kagenashi style part with Rin vs. Sae... god. 8bit man WHY COULDN'T YOU COOK LIKE THIS ALL SEASON??? No dialogue, good animation, AND THE MC ACTUALLY DOES SOMETHING FOR ONCE??? NOW THIS IS A SPORTS MANGA. Was this payoff worth the tourment of the all the rest of the season? FUCK NO. I think in my head I remembered this arc to be better, but nah man. The constant talking was so tiring PLUS the animation... what a blunder of a season man.

But that post credit scene does get me scared. I mean, one, ANOTHER SEASON of this would be an embrassment PLUS, this next arc, well, isn't the best lmao.

@asianfetish People rate anime now based on animation/epicness of last episode in many cases

A very good anime might lose all good rating because of 2 episodes and vice versa.

Most high/low ranking now are because watchers are becoming delusional.

The last two episodes are excellent! I finally feel the tension of a REAL football match like on TV, hence the fact that the animation has improved a lot, especially the 1 vs 1 duel between the two Itoshi brothers!

Damn did Rin go completely off the rails. They finally unlocked the Frame Lock and gave us a pretty awesome duel of the brothers in 2D rather than CGI. Not enough to redeem the season in my opinion but at least the finale of Phase 1 was good.
