Blue Lock

When I watched the first episode I thought "wow this is a refreshing take from all the power of friendship stuff". After the second episode it hit me that this could be one of the most elite sports anime of a generation. The animation and visuals are all there and I have a feeling that the best is yet to come. The ideals are strong as hell and the characters definitely each have a unique flavor of power among them. The best part about it is there is almost no cringey humor forcefully interjected, and it goes a step further in seriousness and sometimes feels like AOT levels of gravity. The stakes are high, and I have a feeling that it's going to get DARK. I'm here for it.

Despite defying the core concepts of friendship, teamwork and selflessness shown in the majority of sports animanga, Blue lock focus on the importance of cultivating ego as the main engine in the development of the potential of an athlete is impressive.

Boasting a wide array of unique and unforgettable characters, impressive visuals despite some clunky cgi models, a thrilling atmosphere and a well crafted storyline, where the stakes get higher with every match,this series is going to keep you at the edge of your seat, craving for more.

Undeniably the best soccer animanga of these last years.

My younger brother (the one who plays soccer) wants to watch this but he didn't finish it. I only finish it by myself. I learned a lot from this anime. It's not only about soccer. It can also be applied in life and how to play by the system of our lives. You get to watch the development of the characters. We can see from the movie that learning is continuous, and it don't stop. Literally.

The main character started from the very bottom and he worked his ass off to reach the top. We can learn from his determination. Our circumstances do not hold us from reaching what we want. So, I will wait for the Season 2 of this anime to see how this ends because I want to know if the main character became the best striker that he wants to be.

So, I recently made a review on Haikyu. I said you can't expect much from a sports anime. I officially apologize. I was wrong because I have watched Blue Lock. People who watched the show must be thinking why I gave it a 9 due to the second season. Yeah, the animation was... questionable but I couldn't even look away from the screen. Blue Lock season 1 had great animation, character development, and great moments overall. Then we head to Blue Lock season 2. It was criticized for its PowerPoint like animation. And yeah, I definitely see it. It is far off from what season one's animation was, but it gets better through the season. But no matter how you put it. Every moment of this show keeps you on your toes. The characters are likeable and different. Although it may not be real soccer that's not what you're looking for in this. You're looking for pure excitement and this is what this show gives you. I would honestly give this a ten if it wasn't for seasons 2 animation problems. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes anime or even sports. This is what people should call peak.

Honestly I never comment or evaluate a show but watching Blue Lock has pushed me to it. It's one of the best sports anime out there!

Being a fan of football and growing up watching the endless fields of Captain Tsubasa... Blue Lock is another level and just shows how good football can be in a anime! The characters are messed up egotistical selfish maniacs with the only goal is to score, only to show they're the best striker in Japan!

The story is hell of entertaining with players with crazy technique and a really cool concept!

I may be hyperbolic, but this is just to show how much I love it!
