Blue Lock is a great or maybe the best example out there to what soccer strikers should aim for and what they should actually believe in or do . The story follows a simple yet a really unique route and it's balanced with the characters and the atmosphere the manga gives which is a part of it's enjoyable features .

Most of the characters in Blue Lock are surprisingly quirky , there aren't many characters who're cliched or that we're used to seeing them , every character has it's own unique feature and yes you can guess the surface of the character but never the inner ... part of them . Also , some of them are multi-talented and on a whole other level and of course some of them are based on real life soccer players which is understandable because those players emit motivational aura that is need in the story of Blue Lock .

The art is really interesting and catchy and is one of the reasons this manga manages to attract readers from the very first chapter . If someone saw the art of Blue Lock without reading it , they would never realize that it's a sports manga and this is adds ferocity to it and makes it much more interesting .

A lot of actual soccer plays and techniques are involved in the manga whether it's directly or not . Some high-level techniques are witnessed in it and they're explained in detail of how and why this exact play happened which is beneficial for someone who wants to improve his soccer skills .


In conclusion , Blue Lock is a great manga to enjoy and to witness the beauty of soccer with ( well not directly ) but it's definitely worth it because of its' uniqueness and it's well-balanced story with it's monstrous art .

Hope this helped in any way~ .

As I've heard from some people who read the manga , The manga is much more different than the anime in a good way but the anime itself unfortunately wasn't good . It's actually sad that the studio wasted this story's potential , the story is really good and has a lot of potential for improvement it could be a masterpiece if it's written well and with care but sadly enough it wasn't .

The anime didn't really focus on the story and was making characters goof around for maybe more than half of the anime's episodes . There's nothing that makes the characters unique which ... makes them always repeat the same things over and over again . The anime focused on the relationships between the characters in the anime more than it did focus on the story . In addition , the events were also really slow at times because as I said the characters were goofing around too much for no reason , there were a lot of episodes that had no meaning for real which is why the pacing of the anime is slow and it wastes the potential of the story and also for the characters .


The characters background were cliched ( Can't help it sometimes ) but they were understandable and it was good to see improvements in the second half of the anime ( barely tho ) .


The OSTS and the themes were great . The OSTS were used perfectly in some scenes in the anime . Although , The anime did have a decent amount of fights but they were poorly made . The animation sadly was not good and there were not enough movements and moves as it's to be expected . The power system is great but then again as I said before , this also is wasted potential , they could've made the fights much better in many ways but almost all of the fights were not satisfying at all ( except maybe one fight ) .


In conclusion , It's really sad to see such potential wasted like that because of the studio or maybe because of the author himself ( don't know that for sure but it's really sad if that's the case ) . I did enjoy the atmosphere of the anime and some of the fights but the feeling of unsatisfactory was overwhelming and it made the anime sadly boring and not worth the time to watch it . Hope this was helpful in any way .
