Cringe players like Kurona and Hiori did nothing but passing to Isagi every match and Nagi with 1 pass below them!!!?
Wth..
@Satou0Kun because their role is not to score goals but to help score goals, do you think the most important thing in football is just scoring goals? without passes, goals will be very difficult to achieve

@certifiedbinger the value of a player not only comes from their play but also position. If Raichi would have done good defending than there was no problem as there are many defender who are more valued and they deserve those. But he didn't do any good defending. So nagi's value is generally higher then him.
As for Nagi his position was somewhat of second striker where he has to make the play to score goals. SO he was also playing as a AMF. In that regard he was playing much better then any player [ALL THE BLUELOCK] as he was making balls but his team mate's can't sync up with him where he has some fault as he shouldn't just follow Rio and go to a team that doesn't play in creative way rather play just fast and furious. So even in that regard he was much better in a tough situation unlike Isagi (who only got the chance because other teams were focused on Kaiser) who can be dealt with by just putting someone stronger so that he can't even move. With nagi any team can avoid that for this vast weapons. I am just disappointed at the weird bidding system and the manga's trajectory of going.
In the whole Blue lock only Nagi and Shidou are true footballer unlike those with plots.
@KURAIKEN63 Raichi was able to tackle Rin several times (if you read in detail), he also made an important pass to Hiori which in the end Hiori passed to Kunigami for Isagi's assist.

@KURAIKEN63 i think raichi entered the top 23 because he was better than the other blue lock players who only ran around and gave short passes, so what? if nagi entered, raichi's ranking would only drop to 22nd which would still result in him qualifying. raichi managed to trip rin several times and gave an important pass to hiori which eventually became an important pass in creating isagi's first goal

@certifiedbinger I get you wanna defend the story and all, but there’s a big difference between a good plot and just making characters suffer for no reason. You can go on about “foreshadowing” and “build-up” all you want, but Nagi was the only one keeping this story grounded. You talk about ego and drive, but isn’t that what made Nagi interesting? He wasn’t just some crazy dude obsessed with being the best, he actually had a real arc. And now they just threw it away for some forced drama with Reo.

And about that ‘parallel’ you’re so quick to brush off, yeah, maybe they set it up, but it still feels lazy. Isagi’s whole journey is tied to how Nagi changes, and that’s not just a callback, it’s supposed to show their progress (or lack of it). The story loves its cycles and parallels, but only when they actually make sense. Nagi’s downfall wasn’t satisfying, it was just there to push the plot forward. So yeah, maybe I’m ‘hate-watching,’ but that’s only because the series is starting to lose the plot, as if it had much of one to begin with though. Let me be mad about it
@IzanaSolos it seems like this chapter serves as a filter for those who only like one character, it's good that we won't argue anymore because you'll stop reading this manga (unlike the loser fans who will only follow to hate), btw this isn't meant to mock you

I'm happy to see some of the characters I like with high prices, but why tf is Kunigami at 8th?? Bro has been the biggest fodder around and you're telling me he is on 8th place???? I love him and I wish he came back to being a hero, but there is NO WAY you're telling me he has been as good as other characters below him.

Nagi getting locked out is whatever, we have been seeing him struggle and all, and hopefully Kaneshiro will make a good drama between Reo and Nagi (won't happen, Kaneshiro doesn't know how to write shit lmao). I do feel bad for him, but it's what made sense lol.

Also what happened rn could've been the work of two chapters. I usually complain about Blue Lock's extremely slow pacing, but I feel like the fast pacing, even tho it makes it more impactful, made it a bit convoluted narrative-wise by hyping him up and immediately closing him off. If it were two chapters it'd be better.

I'm really happy for Yukimiya, my boy, he deserves it and has been doing good. But Otoya being over him is crazy lmao. I won't complain too much about the rankings, or else I'd be here for too long. Like I said, I'm happy to see some faces, but the placements ain't it lol.

Bad chapter overall, unlike the last one. We went from 100 to 0 in a spam of 1 chapter, a Blue Lock classic!

Thought this was an April fools, lol. Had the expecations that it could be a close call at worst where Nagibbarely makes the cut, but him getting kicked out feels unreal. Even if he didn't deliver during these last matches due to his slump, even if he failed as a striker, even if he didn't live up to the egoist they're looking for, it's hard to swallow to see him drop below some of the other guys. Agi may have said that they would become insigficant randoms if they don't convince in the last match and yet Nagi was still 11th place after 2 sorry performances. He dropped from 2nd to 7th, then from 7th place to 11th. And now to 24th place? Wow.

Guess it's like in baseball, 3 strikes and you're out.

@YashChourey Yet he has to compete in a weird system, where Kunigami got more value??? HE couldn't even play good either it is guarding a player or score a goal. And Nagi has to make his own play as his choice was wrong to choose Manshine and He have no one to make him a play like the advantage isagi and the others had

Dude, you need to understand football first why there was no room for Nagi in the squad ! He lost his fire midway after defeating Isagi once in the Manshine vs. Munich match. His motivation was over the moment his small puny goal was achieved. He didn't realize a continuous evolution is required for him to get a position in the squad.
which the underdogs like Nanase did as per their existing skills. The way Nagi was dragging down Manshine City in NEL, he would have been a liability for the U20 team. I'm pretty sure he is not out of Blue Lock, or as said above by @certifiedbinger , the bids are hopefully not their official Bluelock Rankings.
It's a pain to not see him in the world stage, but it's what he gets for getting overwhelmed by a small achievement and slacking later in awe of others.
@YashChourey Sorry for the delayed reply as well as busy in real life. The thing that you said about Nagi's fire being burn off , I don't agree with that. you also said that Nagi did not understand the concept of continuous evolution. And he was dragging Man Shan City down. But no, I would say otherwise. It was the otherwise and cities player and play style that was letting Nagi fall. what can I say from seeing their matches that their team relied too much on speed and counter attack, But Nagi's playstyle is more of a creative way like the Barca team play.
Yes, it is possible that there was no place left for him in the squad, but that can be said for the rest of the 24 of them too cause the way I saw the list and couldn't figure out the team.

Do not put Isagi's condition as a better condition for qualifying than Nagi. What Isagi was doing was trying to make a room for himself in the so called empire of Kaiser system and was playing in environment of 2 different groups of football with in a team where anybody was snatching ball from anyone. He had managed to get others on his side by showing his potential to create a recignition frontier for himself so that he doesn't fall under the shadow of Kaiser or Ness etc.
Getting a rank 1 in that system with mastering the thoughts of how a players think and predicting their movement and desperately trying to score for his survival is what keeps him alive .

Nagi, on the other hand, didn't have to go through all this on Manshine. He got an environment to develop himself under Prince. which he didn't take it for its better utilization. Nagi could have used this time to find a way to his FLOW as well.
@YashChourey
Here, I would disagree yes Isagi got a better condition.
Yes, in the first, the Kaiser was a dominant 1 and he was the main player. The team was build upon him.
About the first match Kaiser was put upon a place where he could not perform the last goal. Where isagi used kunigami.
Then let us say the Uber match. Leonardo was totally focused on Kaiser. Do you think Isagi has the ability to attack against a defender like Leonardo?
And not only him other defender were also targeting Kaiser but still in that situation. He has come out and produced result. And let us say about the team.
you said two different groups of football. Listen, that does not happen in football and it is obvious in real life and in the manga because in the first part of the neo egoist league, we can see the team is based upon Kaiser and also the midfield. But the more time goes, the midfielders only I can see 2 who are all Japanese and one german. So the midfield shift to Isagi's situation.
So he obviously did get a better chance. that teams play is not like building from the back. It was from from midfield And when the midfield got Isagi's player, Isagi got the chance. And Kaiser stopped dramatically, but he still did produce. So yeah, I would say Isagi always had the plot to help him.
even though at one point i was Isagi fan.

@Byclickinh129_ bro only one pass don't make your bid higher. And if he did a good job at defending from the DM position, I would have no problem. But he did not even do that. So I do not know how this bid system work for someone who watches transfer market regularly

@KURAIKEN63 if you say that try to think why kiyora could qualify with only one assist? If nagi didn't qualify it was because he was WAY below expectations after his first goal in the arc nel which was amazing

@KURAIKEN63 additionally raichi already got a prize before in the match against ubers where he marked snuffy with isagi's help which allowed gagamaru to see the direction of barou's kick because they were buying time for the defenders to come back + he kept the ball from niko + he held barou with yukimiya which allowed kunigami to block barou's last kick

It's true that it's a team game ! But in a Blue Lock, you have to be that egoist for your self evolution you cannot keep blaming the team for your disparity. Everybody who thought they had gotten themselves in the corner had to get changed on the spot. I saw karasu and Aiku doing that as well ! Nagi and Reo both deserved to go to Barcha ! but Listen, even Zantetsu being a speedster went to PXG and still succeeded.
Well, my theory is confirmed by Ego already that he lost his hunger after defeating isagi in just 1 play. He didn't even win that match. As ego said, the world wanted Nagi to evolve as Nagi felt that it was lazy af. I don't hate Nagi, but Ego has given the reality check for the world of football.

BTW why are we discussing things about old chapter when new chapter thread is already here.

@YashChourey I would agree or disagree to some part. But as you said, yes, new chapter has come, and we should go move forward. But only one thing. PXG is actually a speed dependent team to. rather than play making, it is a full attack based team
