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.

This is amazing and not just because I'm a fan of soccer. My friend put me onto this show and he hates soccer, even going so far as to call them "foot fairies". Blue lock adds a refreshing spin onto a relatively bland anime sports genre. Nobody is perfect and we all have our strengths and weaknesses, this show truly grasps that concept and runs with it. The animation is a little rough sometimes but makes up for it with it's badass moments. This show is the definition of epic scenes full of triumph and character building. Each character has a moment of self-reflection and I can appreciate the course Isagi's character goes on. This show has parts which real soccer fans can appreciate while also being appealing for those who may not enjoy soccer. Every character is different an in a uniquely great way.

Now please do me a favor and watch the show, you wont regret it...

It was a great sports anime, and I got very attached to it.. the characters.. the story.. the dialogues.. the enthusiasm.. the intelligence and plot in the matches and awesome flashbacks for each character.. the anime, although it was spherical, but it did not present me with an ordinary ball.. it presented it to me in a way that made me get along and relate With the characters, although I don't like football, I got attached to the anime and the events a lot.. The pace and escalation of the episodes, the development of the characters and the depth of the dialogues.. A great sports anime that enters the list of the best sports anime for me!! 👑🥀

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!

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.
