Agi is always right. This is the second time where Agi was disrespected only to be proven right later down the line. England will lose and will never touch the world cup trophy if Fox is still there.

This dude Fox doesn't gaf 😂

Hey guys, I’m planning to cosplay as Bachira for an upcoming con. Just wearing the outfit isn't enough for me, so I want to actually learn his dribbling style and football tricks. Based on your observation, how would you describe Bachira's dribbling style? Feel free to drop your thoughts!

(Also planning to 1v1 random people at the con lol)

These spoilers are weird...

Once a New Gen always a New Gen, expect Hugo.

Send in Kunigami and make it clear how someone trained specially as a physically gifted, younger Noel Noa overshadows any other “Iron Man.” Frankly, he hasn’t gotten anything for a long while, so I think this guy would be perfect. If not him, let King Barou feed on him.

Both of them are so brainwashed it’s hilarious.

Teddy thinks he is a useless puppet, and calls himself useless, mutters that one to infinity stuff to reassure himself. Isagi thinks Ego is the only way, and rejects any other philosophy by lashing out like a child throwing a tantrum to reaffirm himself.

Isagi is also Egos Lap dog as much as Fox is Teddys. He treated Karasu temporarily using Hugo’s system the same way Teddy treated Agi, and Ego backed him up of course. Ego just didn’t sub because Karasus action lead to a goal, but did criticize him heavily.

Both of them lost to France because of the core of their coaches philosophies. England couldn’t grow, and Japan had Rin acting on his ego. Both of their coaches show clear favoritism towards them.

Both coaches forced their philosophy onto their players. Teddy spoke of how they had to survive some sort of special training to be picked. Blue lock program was a form of special training, literally locking young people in a facility.

I’d also point out that the “…” in Isagis speech bubble before he shouts at Teddy is him maybe realizing Teddy might actually be kinda right. Hesitation. And Teddy showing a bit of anger is the mirror of it.

Hopefully Kaneshiro doesn’t phone it in with another Aura farm moment at the end to end the feud between these two. They should both lose in some way, and the winning play should be made by someone who can dance on the borderline of both philosophies (Maybe Kuni?)

A lot of people are talking about a possible matchup between Lockhart and Kunigami. And honestly, it's actually totally possible.

In addition to their similarities in terms of physical capabilities, the fact that Lockhart is mentioned as playing for Berserk Dortmund—the same club that made an offer to Kunigami at the end of the NEL—makes me think this might not be a coincidence.

By the way... I really wonder what kind of club Berserk Dortmund is. I'm looking forward to finding out more... we'll surely get more information via the Germany U20 team.

Isagi plans to force their ego’s out and I think we seen how to do it with Teddy. Teddy won’t be easy as he doesn’t give them anything but this chapter he showed his ego twice.

When agi yelled at fox and started going after him for his extreme no ego ways and why that cost him France game, Teddy game out and grabbed the back of agi neck telling him to shut up and such.
Later when isagi insulted fox, Teddy again showed his anger and isagi responded with telling him to be careful cause his ego is showing.

The way to beat England best player is to attack his sore spot which is fox.

The thing is this isn’t isagi area, while he does trash talk he’s not someone who is skilled at it.
During his training he was seen doing non ufc style wrestling, I say this gave him more core strength.

When he got into his defending posting against team v in the first selection we saw him mark reo and through that match raichi was on him all the time getting in his way, but the thing that gives him the edge over other defenders is this, he’s excellent at rage baiting.

No one holds a candle to him when it comes to trash talking except kaiser, He is quick to anger and takes a pleasure in getting under people’s skin.
At one point reo elbowed him in the face getting himself a yellow card and raichi respond was to encourage this tell him to give it another shot so reo can get a red card.

Plus it’s been so long since he did anything.

I can see him marking teddy with the sole go to bring out his ego, raichi objective will be to just stay on him getting in his way but also mainly to just constantly make snide comments aimed at fox the result is Teddy loses it and fouls raichi by attacking him, raichi takes the hit but mocks him for it while Teddy gets a yellow card and gives Japan a free kick.

2 things happen.
1, fox subs Teddy out for going against plan.

1. Teddy stays in as fox doesn’t want to sub out Teddy his best player.

From that point isagi teams with raichi to draw out Teddy anger and brings out his ego so that isagi can devour him.

It’s a bit underhanded to intentionally rage bait other players into attacking in order to get them carded but it’s a common thing in football.

Now in football it is banned to do this intentionally trying to provoke players which is why they don’t even let players put their hands to their mouth with other teams because this is a common way to deny claims.
But 1, this is blue lock they don’t have to follow the rules.
2. Just cause it is a rule doesn’t mean it can’t happen as players irl do this they just try other ways to get away with it

And before people go out to get me for Kungami, on paper he absolutely should be a solid contender for players like Barou and Shidou, but is unfortunately overshadowed by the sheer amount of characters we currently have.

Regardless, it would've been cool if all these guys were out for eachother for the ball because of their crazy egotistical playstyle, like we briefly saw between Barou and Shidou in the France game. (I hoped Kunigami would've jumped in as well lmao)

I know that this is an odd question to ask, but I dont find it to be a coincidence that all the introduced New Gen 11 play on a European Team AND on DIFFERENT teams.

Bunny plays in Barcha

Loki Plays PxG

Hugo plays in Arsenaly

Kaiser plays for Bastard

Sae plays for Re Al

And Lorenzo plays for Ubers.

If this trend continues, shouldn't Teddy also play for a similar high ranking EU org?

My Theory, is that he plays for Dortmund and Fox is their Coach. And in the champions league arc, we'll see him play with Kunigami.

I think he could be on the Ubers team.

It's also hilarious to remember that Don Lorenzo literally barked at Snuffy before...

I don't even want to imagine Lorenzo and Ted barking at this man at the same time. That would be fuckng bizarre. 💀💀💀

So far, we've been introduced to 7 of the 11 New Generation players, which means there are still 4 left to be revealed.

Japan is obviously going to play several matches during the World Cup, so it would make sense to assume that we might meet the remaining players as Japan faces different national teams.

But there's a problem with that logic.

Let's imagine a scenario where Japan plays against Brazil, Switzerland, Spain, Germany, and France during the tournament.

In that case, we could meet the Brazilian New Generation player, as well as the Swiss one.

But even then, we could still end up with players missing.

We already know 7 out of 11, so there are 4 left.

If Brazil or Spain, for example, has TWO New Generation players, we'd go from 7 to 9. If another country, such as Switzerland, also has one, we'd reach 10.

And then we'd still be missing one.

That's where things get weird.

Even if we assume that Brazil or Spain might have two New Generation players, the numbers still don't quite add up.

We know 7 of them so far.

If Brazil introduces two, we'd be at 9. Switzerland introduces its New Generation player, bringing us to 10, but we're still missing one.

It's really complicated.

Another scenario would be Brazil introducing only one New Generation player, bringing the total to 8. Spain introduces a second player besides Bunny, bringing us to 9. Switzerland introduces its player, and we'd be at 10.

But either way, we'd still be missing one.

The numbers simply don't add up. 🤔

What do you guys think?

Kamakura at the end of summer. it‘s a really magical place to be. The beach is beautiful and its lovely to see the middle and high school students going there after classes! They dont realise how lucky they are to attend school right beside a beach!

Kimono rental Vasara had a Blue Lock collab with merch and character inspired fabrics to try on. The last pic is Enoshima cat island in the distance. Unfortunately the sky wasnt clear enough to see Mt Fuji.

If anyone is wondering why, Kamakura is the hometown of the Itoshi brothers. Sae loves it at the end of summer. I did actually feel kind of lonely without my elder brother with me. A ramune popsicle for 90 yen really hit the spot at the road and beachside. It felt quite healing to experience what love baby Rin must have felt when Sae bought him ice cream all the time. Its a very peaceful place to be and i recommend everyone to at least take a day trip down from Tokyo when you travel :)

bonus: Slam Dunk larping?? I didnt realise haha. Went for Blue Lock instead

Oh yes my brother also shares the same birthday and animanga tastes as Sae

I know a lot of people after this chapter, hell after many chapters in this group stage arc, are arguing and stating how manipulative and evil Ego is, and how he and Fox are cut of the same cloth about their players. Sure the guy is crazy in his approach about the sport and how to win the WC, but i'd would never say Ego is similar to Fox in any way, throughout the whole Blue Lock project, Ego was handing down his ideas and teachings to the players but expecting them to act independently, using his teachings sure, but still motivating them think on their own and strives for their goals without any societal influence and use him and his project as a mere stepping stone. Hell, he even wasn't angry when some players stated playing in other positions outside striker, he was only upset of some of them stopping to prioritize their personal goals and playing for the sake of representing something or someone else. Thing went stray in the match against France cause of trying to playing for the sake representing Blue Lock instead of their own goals and not knowing knowing how to align these individual goals. It's like high-risk high reward mutual benefit deal.

While Fox is actively taking his players ability to think for themselves and making all decisions himself. Borderline actual brainwashing.

Hi hi eveyrine I've got a question so I've just finished up the neo egoist league up and I'd just like to ask why peoole hate ness so much I mean he is a little annoying but not really, hienslty I RELALY enjoyed his character I was kinda hoping near the end he'd spite kaisee and spit on his shoes lol but anyways cna anyone answer my question
Thanks

Just a Meme Edit for Charles that im still doing

Lo que para mi, serían las opciones correctas que los jugadores debieron escoger para prosperar en el proyecto (algunos jugadores de otros equipos, como los maestros y charles son para rellenar)

It would be a really cool reference to have the Argentine Pablo and a character who is clearly inspired by Neymar working together.

Although that makes things pretty fucking weird, because Barcelona would have Lavinho, Pablo, and Bunny too. 💀💀💀💀
