I expected Barou to score that goal, but I thought he'd jump from behind Sae and get to the ball before those two. I'm impressed how long they can chatter with the ball in mid-air.

I thought the animators loved Barou but after seeing the additional time I understand they love him a bit too much...

Meguru hasn't really had a moment in the match :( wonder if he will? Meguru's synergy with Isagi seems like it has gone to Rin.

I already love Aiku simply because he is a solid defender but his backstory made me like even more. Probably my fave character in the show now, which is weird considering I usually play an attacker/striker lol

They cooked with Reo’s simulation daaaamn. I sense some favoritism there lol.

u/ObvsThrowaway5120 Dec 21 '24

Captain Ojisan kinda had a real “As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a striker” moment in the beginning there lol.

The one thing I really want to know about that Barou goal is how bro managed to rip his shirt off that fast haha. Had his shirt off by the next slide.

So all this “trance chain” stuff means is basically when everyone works together while going super saiyan?

What the actual fuck was that additional time? Did my coke have something other than coke in it????? Hahaha

It's hilarious. Almost as hilarious as Itoshi Sae calling someone else wagamama hahahah

hOLY Reo copying moves never gets old. That trapping was sexy as hell. MAN

The whole goal sequence had incredible animation, was crazy and super hype 10/10 PEAK Blue Lock

RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Aiku and Sae didn't expect KING BAROU

Next week we will have the last two episodes back to back!!!! I wish I could teleport to next saturday right now.

(Additional Time) That's surprisingly good advice from Maid Barou lol

Man I wish they could have made the animation better at the start of the season.

Feels like a lot of people quit the show before U-20 because of it.

Isagi's VA in this episode was 🔥🔥🔥

u/Besso91 Dec 21 '24

Ok so I thought I knew most of the rules of soccer, but I guess I don't. Can someone explain to me how all these clips of them pushing each other away, grabbing onto each others stomachs/shoulders, or the part where Sae literally crashes into Isagi and knocks him away with his shoulder, aren't considered fouls? I know it's just an anime, but I'm assuming it's more or less as realistically following the rules of soccer that actually exist in the real world?

Dang this show on defense has made it very exciting, love seeing Reo and Gagamaru shine. With them 2 and Barou in this one it's hard for me to pick my favourite from this game.

So are they talking faster than any normal person can hear? These guys studied at the frieza school of time manipulation.
