What a pleasure to see an incredible goal such as Isagi's one. This is the beauty of football! Today is the last day where I can enjoyed watching an episode after a world cup match and today is the most incredible moment of Messi's career and I hope the beginig of Isagi's legend in Blue lock.

Can't wait to see next week's episode.

Exciting episode as Isagi scored the winning goal and found his "super power" in direct shots. Also, it was interesting how everyone was in a Team V through Z and ranked towards the bottom to make them hungrier and play harder. It was also a great point to mention that not everyone in each team is really good so now with the second selection we'll get to see how individuals do (I have a feeling that Igarashi won't make the cut from here).

Lastly, it was a little satisfying, though a little surprising at first, watching Raichi punch Kuon for his betrayal earlier on but at least they're even now.

Happy he was able to be a little bit selfish this time and take his own shot to win the game. They were able to bring Kuon back into the fold but can't forget to give him a bit of a beating first for what he done to them. I did think that Blue lock would be too big if there were teams ranging from A to Z, I'm interested to see what's going to happen now that they're doing things as individuals, hopefully no relationships go bad because of it

I'm actually glad that this anime has 2 cours. But if it's just one cour, this episode would be a nice stop anyway.

The Raichi guy, I already checked before that he doesn't have the same voice actor as Bakugo, but after this episode end I've to go check again just in case I forget, nope, still different voice actor. But the similarity is uncanny!

I guess at some point Itoshi Rin will go against his brother, Saetoshi Rin.

I hope Noel Noa will make a proper appearance.


Actually the voice actor of Raichi is the same as Inosuke from Demon Slayer :))

What an insane resolution of the game between Team Z and Team V. The whole sequence where Isagi was creating the calculations on what's the best possible way to score was crazy and gave me non stop chills. The intensity of this show is just out of this world, especially with such superb looking animation. In winning this game Team Z was able to make it into the next round. Not sure how everyone else felt, but it was satisfying to see Raichi punching Kuon. No they're even.

What a surprise in the second half. So only building 5 existed? That still means there were multiple Team V's, W's, X', Y's and Z's, because it was the first time we saw Itoshi Rin. Nice little flex btw.

I'm already curious to see what these 5 different stages will look like. More importantly, compared to the previous selection, this time everyone has to fight for themselves.

Can't wait for the next episode.

Makes sense there was only ever one building, power-scaling four more with players beyond that would have been untenable.

Leaving that annoying trio aside, I find it really hard to believe the rest of Team V is any better than Isagi and co. Hell, how come they are better ranked than Barou, for example?

Anyways, decent episode overall. Isagi's goal sequence looked absolutely fantastic, even if the studio had to spend half their budget to animate it.

P.S.: VAMOS ARGENTINA, CARAJO!!! โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…

They aren't and it shouldnt be taken too seriously because the rankings were initially said to be arbitrary and biased. And after the new reveal, theres no reason at all to place any weight on rankings so close to each other. It was all a ruse to test players and their confidence.

So I guess that Rin is Sae's brother?

Also, yeah, glad it was revealed that every floor had V to Z teams. Imagine if someone like Nagi was the best of the worst lmao. Could have expected mach 3 speed from the best players lol.

At first, I started to lose interest, imagining all the repetitive games they'll have to do with higher-ranked guys and somehow winning despite all odds. But it became interesting once again when the truth was revealed. I like that they have to fight alone at this stage, very fitting for egoistic propaganda, and it will probably be good to lose some lacklustre guys.

Kuon still annoying btw.

Damn yes that was a good Isagi goal... but they all got deceived and they weren't in the worst building it was just made to push them to tryhard as much as possible to get out of it... now time for more individuality

I was wondering how they were going to fit so many other buildings into the show. Now it makes sense as to what has happened and why. Excited for what selection two has to offer for our team.

Also, that punch was hilarious, lol.

There are still 125 players. There are 5 Team Vs, 5 Team Ws, and so on. Teams B to U do not exist. Everyone belonged to the 'bottom stratum' (V to Z).


Ohhh.... Thanks for that explenation. I was confused on what happened to the rest of the players.


All 125 who passed the first selection (175 players eliminated from the original 300) are there. It's just that we don't see all 125 on screen because of animation budget.

They've really become a good group. If you compare it to the first couple of episodes, they have really developed as teammates. That's really cute!...even though they are still really big egoists.

And I'm so glad that team V (mostly about Nagi and Reo) is still in the picture.

It's so cute when Nagi says "Nee Reo"โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ

Victoria épica del team Z vs el team V. โšฝ

•Pero más épico es que Ego revelara que siempre existió solo el edificio 5, no había otros participantes, todo era un plan para motivarlos. ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
