Nice match, the air is really intense, and the score is tied between team y and z, let's see how team z wins the match.
I give it 6/10.

animation looks somewhat decent until the actual match begins. I feel ashamed for overlooking ao ashi untill recently.
OMG YES, AO ASHI IS AN ABSOLUTE GEM! Very realistic portrayal of growth and improvement in sports.
blue lock art is better in manga story and emotion ao ashi better. Anime ao ashi is a overlooked masterpiece.

You know, at the moment it's my second favorite show of the season, even above Mob Psycho. Really enjoying it every week.

Now they are a team, they want to win ofc.
I like that they are slowly becoming friends and helping each other. Atleast for the moment, it is a battle royal of course.

I loved how they finally introduced some of the characters skills. And Kunigami is definitely best boy with his skills and his good nature (I love the talk with Isagi and how he shared his steak with him, what a precious cinnamon roll he is! ><)

Isagis' skill is definitely his good intuition and feeling, he's the one who felt the pressure and he was able to know who it is.

I'd been waiting to see the animated scene of Isagi and Niko, and it exceeded my expectations. The soundtrack and animation were both excellent.

Niko being the mastermind of everything was especially surprising, but who else could have done it?

good episode. i think the pacing is a bit odd since soccer is a sport where you're constantly going and trying to fit in a bunch of dialogue within a game kinda throws off the entire pacing og the games but i think they're doing a decent job to try and make it somewhat well paced.

Good suspense in this episode, relieved that Team Z scored to tie the game. Looks like Isagi's special ability is to be able to read the field and "smell" a possible goal, very interesting. Hopefully they win the game in the next episode and that this team improves on both their teamwork and on themselves.

Niko got jokes. Dude got bangs like dog in need of a groomer talkin' bout "You have the same eyes as me." Can't nobody see your eyes, son! He needs a ponytail holder.

I thought Bachira would be the dislikable conniving bad boy at first, but he's my favorite character.

I used to think this anime was boring and had zero depth to it, but I have changed my mind. Seeing the characters work and develop together not only as a team, but as friends is what I think this show's secret weapon is. Having a subtle dive into character's emotions and personality through interaction on and off field is truly a treat, their dynamics really have spiced up the show for me. Also, this is what JJK is lacking, if it more moments of characters bonding, I would like it much more.

This anime is simple, if the episode is about a socccer match and the turnabouts around it, its good. If the episode focus on dialogue its just cringe.
I love the ideas, and the mix with shonenn in this one, the protagonist has this weird instinct that tells him the best play (offensive or deffensive). Usually people with that kind of trait in football are Center Midfielders, not strikers lol

"you have the same eyes as me"
sorry can't compare when you hide them... lol

i'm not going to rewatch other episodes, but... didn't they say these games were only 45 minutes? this one is a full 90 minutes? i'm confused

Liked the development in this episode compared to the previous ones. Kunigami is an icon tbh but I should have expected that given he's voiced by Yuuki Ono.

When it focuses on strategy and the game this anime becomes very interesting, I really liked the chapter. The rival team does the typical super-defensive technique that some people can't stand because they find the game boring, right? I still like the main character, he has a good vision of the game, I understood that this was better for a midfielder than for a forward, that's why they are the ones who normally organize, but I have no idea. As it is an interesting chapter

it's a great stratergy as long as fairness and equal chance is kept in mind. decent episode overall, not that much hype or action as expected.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.

I gotta say, I think the use of CGI in Blue Lock is done exactly how it's supposed to be used in anime, it's barely noticable and probably saves a fair bit of work for the animators

The strategy applied in this match was interesting to watch. Although I saw the hentai protag being the one calling the shots from a mile away...

Seeing Bachira dribbling like the Neymar from Santos makes me feel unholy things.

Also please tell me Kunigami stays this wholesome for the rest of the series. Leaving corny dialogues aside, he seems to be the most "realistic/down-to-earth" striker out of this bunch of egotistical idiots.

Isagi should run the strategy from the start. He got nice intuition. Hope we can get more action in the next episodes
