As a manga reader I was sad to see that Bachira's realization was not as impactfull in the anime as it was in the manga. He's my favorite character and his questioning throughout this match is really important for his development. Also they're adapting a lot of chapters per episode, I'm starting to question where exactly the anime is gonna end, unless they make an episode dedicated to Reo and Kinigami's match I don't see how they're gonna drag Isagi's match for the next 4 episodes.

There are only 3 episodes left. If they continue to cover 5 chapters an episode like they are doing, they can finish the season at chapter 94, which is a very appropriate ending to the season.

For the love of God PLEASE give me some actual animation beyond simply a "passable" level of quality besides some goal shots, I'm getting sick of this.
At this point, it feels like the VFX team are putting more effort into this than the actual animators. 

I don't like to be someone who criticizes the animation of an anime most of the time, I care more about the story honestly, but this is getting absolutely ridiculous. Give me at least one thing to remember from the past few episodes and say to myself "Yeah, that was hype as fuck".

While Isagi's team has Barou to break through Rin's team, the latter has both Tokimitsu and Rin with their above average stamina to completely destroy teams late-game

I don't think Barou can compete against Tokimitsu in the stamina department so seeing how Isagi will counter this will be hype

Another Intense EP!
the reason why Rin is rank 1 is because he has the ability to quickly adapt and use that to counter any kind of plan the opponent does but of course the unexpected part by Barou is a given haha alolz
looks like this match might end next ep or maybe cliffhanger for the winning point lelz hype!
5/5.

This episode looked like a visual novel at times and I'm not even sure if that was better or worse than the CG bits. Regardless, after Rin's last goal I'm not even sure where this game is going, considering Team Red needs at least two goals to win, and from a narrative standpoint, I'm expecting Bachira to do something awesome as well. We have already spent some time in the second half.  Are we ending the Season with a penalty shoot-out?

Barou finally stepped up and got his head in the game again. His shot was mad impressive. I laughed at Mr. Absurbly Long Eyelashes. Rin's goal was even more impressive and almost unbelievable. I really hope Isagi's team wins, but I have a feeling they won't. I feel like they're going to end up losing Nagi and they'll be back down a level. Hopefully, that doesn't happen though. I wonder how much more different things would've been if a yellow card wasn't pulled, ugh that sucks.

Sinto que o Bachira vai ficar mais pika do que já é.

Barou mais uma vez mostrando que ele é um dos melhores. Essa dele ser o bug do jogo que decidirá quem ganha ficou massa. Me surpreendeu a aparição dele e o roubo de bola do seu próprio time.

Mesmo já entendendo como funciona o jogo do Rin ele ainda conseguiu surpreender e algumas jogadas. Foi muito boa essa ideia de se aproveitar que o Isagi estava se concentrando mais em outros jogadores e ele dá a volta.

Rin and Isagi are competing at an incredibly high level. So much that now Bachira, who was in search of such monstrous players, can't keep up with them.

Barou's unpredictability is a key factor in this match.

Now the score is 4-3

The CGI for this episode was way too horrendous ngl.

Niko and Zantetsu team up.

bachira wanted it one way but instead it was the other way.

initially rin took bachira from isagi but now just when bachira wanted to pick from rin or isagi, they both lost interest in him.


he needed it.

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.

Fuuuuuuuuck! That was so intense that I actually screamed and my family came running to see if I was OK πŸ˜†

Man, Bachira doesn’t need a monster cause HE’S the monster… but Isagi was just a step ahead because he has faith in Bachira.

I beg that White win and take Bachira cause he’s gonna be unstoppable as part of their team!

The back and forth between Rina dn Isagi are ona completely different dimension from Bachira and his creative plays that he taught up alongside his illusionary monster. This is 3D chess at its finest and ther eis no spot left for those with irrational logic, incapable of playing for oneself.

Discard yourself of the monster who has chained you down you whole life Bachira! It's time to emerge with your own football.

Crazy episode, Aryu scores, then Barou scores, and then Rin scores a free kick, leaving the game 4-3 in favor of Rin's team. Rin calling my man Isagi and Bachira an NPC, what a jerk. Barou with that roast "Mr. Absurdly-Long Bottom Lashes", Rin deserves that LOL. Barou once again devouring Isagi, leading the game while disrupting Rin's future of the field, that was just an awesome move by Barou. Isagi needs to be someone who can't be read, just like how Barou's move aren't able to be read easily. Isagi's team needs to put an end to Rin's shadow puppet control of the entire field. Tokimitsu manged to make a chemical reaction with Rin even though he lacks self confidence. Poor Bachira, falling behind Rin and Isagi while still trying to meet the "monster" and figuring out why he plays soccer. He just might start to awaken into a whole new state. 5/5

It's hard to remember where episodes start and end here but this felt like a noteworthy one. One that rather epitomizes what makes BlueLock so interesting to me. Obviously Anime isn't a complete picture of Japan not even with the variations in genres and age targets. But it is obviously heavily influenced by Japan and you can get a feel for it sometimes. The "Japan-ness" the values they take for granted that are just invisibly accepted in anime that feel like they would be noteworthy in your own.

Blue Lock and this episode really emphasizes a type of selfishness that I don't commonly see. And not just a momentary selfishness but as a lifestyle. In this episode we have our last team player character finally starting to embrace the selfish lifestyle Blue Lock promotes.

I saw an episode review that had some very excited about Rin and honestly I get it. I got it about two episodes ago. Rin is great. Last episode Barou who I kinda didn't like had his moment to shine. It all comes together nicely .

Bachira centric episode and it was decent for the most part. We got into his psyche of Monster and he nearly got the win but for Isagi's interference. Average animation yet again, nothing more to add ~~
