Last Attack

Loved the transition in animation, upped their game 100%. The animation was nice and fluid after the transition and really helped to convey the emotions pent up in the final moments.

I particularly liked this episode especially due to the animation prior being slightly mediocre at times. Though it was sufficient for me then, some beg to differ. Despite the mediocre animation i was really invested into the story in Blue lock, many moments i was exhilarated and on the edge of my seat but this episode in particular really satisfied my taste. It even evoked me to want to play football myself.

Absolutely amazing episode.

This is easily best anime finale of the year. The final match-up, the final goal, and everything that came after that had me literally running across my room and grinning 'cause of what i witnessed the moment the cinematic bars dropped and "kagenashi" kicked in and it was nothing short of a masterclass in fluid sports animation. Not just that, every scene of this moment was simply given the utmost love and care and this is what happens when you give animators time.

P.s Miyano Mamoru as the emperor is perfect, a high class ending to the best episode of blue lock and the best final episode this year.

Everything, OST, Animation, Art, Visuals, Voice acting caught me by awe. I will never forget this episode. This is the best blue lock episode I've ever watched. I could rewatch it over, and over again without ever being bored of it

Visually, the animation in the finale is top-tier, with fluid sequences that capture the fast-paced nature of football, while the intense moments of individual brilliance are heightened by dynamic camera angles and clever use of color. The soundtrack, too, amplifies the tension, complementing the action on screen and keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.

I'm hoping for a similar type of animation all throughout season 3, if the studios does let the animators take their time.

Why rate the episode 9.5? Who rates it less than 10? It deserves the episode of the century. I have never watched any episode in my life with such enthusiasm... I think I exaggerated a little, but without kidding, it deserves 10 out of 10. So please, if you have not watched this episode, please rate it with a full rating, and if you have watched the episode, you do not need to read my words because I think you will. I rate it ten out of ten in advance... and at the end of the article I would like to say that this is a cinematic masterpiece.

Thank you for making the end of the year 2024 special for us, and I thank those who read my review until the end.

I'd like to start with the fact that this episode adapts my favourite stretch of chapters, which i have been anticipating to see animated for a long long time. To be honest, i didnt have high expectations going into this. I thought a good adaptation of those chapters seemed impossible, especially considering the rough schedules and environments the animation team was tasked with.

But they pulled it off, they did it justice. I'd go as far as saying that they elevated from the manga. It was beautiful, breathtaking, stunning and had me at the edge of my seat even though i've read this part of the story a million times.

Huge thanks to the animation team for their efforts on this season despite being shoved with awful deadlines and here's hoping to a season 3 where the team is given more time and freedom.

And again, 10/10. Astonishing finale. Completely shattered my expectations.
