🤣 young kid at real madrid, must happen to loads of players every year. We cant forget that the blue lock kids are just that,kids in the game of football. This is much bigger than them
I don’t think Sae ever failed he saw the truth. He saw it when his little brother at the age of 6 ran on the pitch and kicked the ball that Sae passed which no one else could receive. His brother is such a good and talented player and he had been pushing down his brother by calling him the best in the world. The first thing Sae did when coming off the plane was go and see his brother, he didn’t even go home he has his suitcase on him. Sae lost weight and looks tired because it is like what Ego said, Japan takes this young footballers send them away from home where they know no one, don’t speak the language and football is played so different to play football. He hasn’t seen his family in 4 almost 5 years (he turned 18 after the second selection). Even Aiku describes how playing in japan stopped his love for being a striker, isagi experienced it too. Everything is about the team you have to pass or they won’t play you (aiku flash back) and Europe is not like that they tend to be selfish players it is their job to score. It is why I think Ego has the players playing with European players. I still believe if Sae had joined Bluelock with the rest of the U20 he would have cleared them all. He is a play maker and such a talented player at only 18
what chapter did Ego said, Japan takes this young footballers send them away from home where they know no one, don’t speak the language and football is played so different ? I want to reread it .Thank you
The person that crushed sae's dream of becoming a striker is probably Leonardo Luna, the guy from the world's top 5 who was from spain, and in the real madrid team. He also talked about how good Sae is and how his passes are amazing.
Itoshi sae is not a failed egoist he just realistic he not a striker itoshi sae had never got the eye for goal Itoshi sae is trying to make Rin better off
I think sae lied about wanting to be the best striker and made it his dream since he knew Rin would follow he probably enjoys playing with Rin since he can finish his passes but wants Rin to he able to fight without him Incase something happens
I dont understand what ur trying say itoshi sae isn't a failed ego he just like reo he just doesn't have someone worthy of lending his abilities to he was trying to get rin to be a striker since they played together as striker something probably happened in spain to make sae realise he didnt have the ego of a striker so he decided to mold rin and stop him from becoming a wasted talent as he was going through success in japan
@@THEOFFCIALBLOXYLEGENDY_T that's exactly what I'm saying but little brothers always want to become their bigger brothers that's why sae "wanted" to become the best striker so Rin could follow and when they had the conversation of what would you do without me that's what made sae want to leave so Rin could make it on his own without his hel
This was the dumbest plot point to me. A midfielder is more important than a striker and requires leagues more endurance, skill, and game sense. By Sae becoming a midfielder, that allows him to have far more control over the game
thats what i was thinking. something like gk would really show his ego got crushed, but even defender would be better than midfielder to show his ego was crushed.
I think the author goes for midfielder to show that his ego is crushed because it is the position most closely linked to a striker. Midfielders are often looked as Robins to the Batman strikers, so by him being a secondary playmaker, it shows he no longer has the will to make the shots himself and feels he can only help. I guess it shows he hasn’t completely given up on his offensive ability… he just doesn’t have the ego to take a stranglehold of the game anymore.
Exactly. Especially since the best player in the world and no one's close to him him right now. Jude the dude Bellingham has the Bernabeu singing god damn beetles songs. But at the time this was made, and famous, the top dogs were strikers, RL9 and the Benz are basically the top dog in this universe yeah? But in all seriousness, the best players right now, top 3 are Jude who's an attacking midfielder now, and Haaland and Mbappe and Mbappe now is also an attacking midfielder or a winger. Yeah Jude and Mbappe don't press, and are more like deeper playmaking forwards, but that's their role. Benzema and Lewandowski who are elite goalscorers were the best at the time, but the were also deep forwards especially Benzema. And don't ever forget KDB who's also top 5 easy.
Now I’m really curious what did this man experience in Spain and who was the one to crush his dream. I heard that people were sayin it might’ve been Kaiser
@@mycrooo6841 someone on the same level made him entirely rethink his decision? Doubtful. I think it’s just something along the lines of he didn’t have enough ego to fight back coaches and teammates who didn’t want to support him as a striker or he may just prefer midfielder. But don’t think it has anything to do with Kaiser.
@@ItsZayJ well Kaiser has shown better feats and shows more striker capabilities so I’m pretty sure if not Kaiser, then someone around Kaiser’s level crushed him
I can imagine that the U-20 team would definitely contain Isagi,Rin and Barou. But it would be freaking amazing if it were to contain Bachira,Nagi,Reo,Chigiri,Kunigami and Niko as well. But if Sae was to be in the team as well then the story would be later revolved around U-20 versus the ones who crushed Sae's hopes and ego... I still wonder who crushed Sae's dreams and confidence of being the best striker. Edit:It would be dope to see who that man was.
Would be interesting if it was Noa even if he isn't most fast or has giant arsenal of skill,and that Noa defeat Sae by use his ability (that was show in neo egoist arc),or Kaiser cause Kaiser is kinda like Noa he has insane shot ability.
I really love the backstory and their contribution to the plot with these two characters. It’s an accurate portrayal of siblings, where one goes out to the world first and he’s one of the most talented people in the world. While the other, lives in the others shadow. I’ve always liked the many differences and similarities between Rin and Sae. It’s amazing how these two have affected the people around them, and they’ve become some of my favorite characters I’ve seen in Anime/Manga. Great video by the way!
5:45 I honestly think that sae is shedding some tears here because they haven’t shown his face 😢 he just wants to motivate his brother in a twisted way so his ego doesn’t become that fragile like him.
I also like to imagine that his new approach is due to the way he was treated outside the country when we went to Spain. As a young kid he was overwhelmed by the pressure of the high level football. I can't wait for more story clues on him in the future.
Nah he isn't a failed Egoist. He is still very egotistical, I'd argue more so than when he actually left Japan. Thinking Sae is settling for being the best midfielder instead of the best striker is a massive stretch. Its not that he lost his ego and lost his goal, his aim just changed. Sae realised that he was a big fish in a small pond once leaving Japan. You say Sae gave up and left it to his brother which I think couldn't be further from the truth. If that was the case, Sae would have just returned to Japan and hung up his football boots or just settled for being a mediocre striker in Japan. That was the easy route but Sae chose to change, switch up his playstyle and readjust his dreams. I also doubt he has an Itachi relationship... Like Itachi was built up to be a villain from the beginning and was changed later on. I don't think Sae would bother using negatives to motivate Rin, I think he was genuinely disgusted by Rin binding his football to him.
Sae hasn't readjusted his dream. You don't readjust dreams. You don't settle for any less. That's what a dream is. The final end goal for your life. Itoshi Sae has forever given up on being a striker, and now relegates himself to being a midfielder.
@Drifter it is an end goal, but goal change as people do. Circumstances change and realisations happen, so you adapt to them. Sae realised that his talent for football didn't make him a very good striker when compared to the other top talents in the world but does make him a great playmaker. If Sae gave up, he would have quit football. He still dreams of being the best but now is striving to be the best midfielder in the world instead of the best striker. That is not giving up. That is making the most of what you are given. It's called being realistic.
@trog Dreams are supposed to be realistic, though... No one who dreams of winning a World Cup who doesn't think it is achievable and they can't do it. A dream is an ultimate goal Goals are attainable Sae just realised that becoming the world's best striker isn't attainable. He doesn't have the natural gifts to compete against other top strikers. Sae's ego wasn't broken. Sae is very egotistical. The fact that he refuses to play with anyone he doesn't approve of is incredibly egotistical. He's saying that "none of you deserve my passes". Also, if he gave up, then he wouldn't have the goal of being the world's best midfielder. Do you think it's easy to become the world's best midfielder? There are plenty of players with big ego's who had switched positions. Just because you found out being a striker isn't for you does not mean that your ego was broken. You thought you were the best, but the results showed that you weren't. If you continued playing like you were, then that's not egotistical. That's delusional
@@sota5815 He would play better with shidou, yes. However I would like to see Isagi actually play with someone that sees what he sees. Isagi is, quite frankly, playing completely alone and completely different game with the exception of maybe Kurona but that's also only because he is dragging Kurona along. Feels like he is playing with literal NPCs set on easy mode while he is playing football
@sota , i bet the next 2 matches of Neo egoist league are definitely for isagi's development as a striker, once this league is over isagi will definitely be on the level of Kaiser if not better.
The biggest nuance here is the Blue Lock wants you to believe that You Cannot become the best player if you’re not a striker. Whereas in real life, plenty of best players of all time are in fact midfielders or semi midfielders, like Messi or Maradona who are not pure goal scorers but rather a mix of scorers and creators. Players like Xavi, Iniesta, Zidane, Modric, or Platini are at least top 20 best players of all time, and all midfielders. Sometimes, the fans go to the stadium to witness the actions preceding the goal, rather than the goal itself. That’s why I believe Sae is not a failure at all.
I think your wrong about itoshi sae failing to be an egoist or losing his ego because I change his position to be a midfielder instead of a striker it was just a reality check hy realizing he is not suited for it at all and midfielder work best with his skills. Just like niko remember before he went offense and aim to be a striker but after being against isagi in the soccer match he realised he is more suited for defense and take excitement by crushing people goals in that position that doesn't mean he lost his ego he just realized that this is much more btter for him just like Aiku he realised that going offense wasn't suited for at all in the U20 vs bluelock arc. He went to being in the defense position now cause it works best for him. People being in a different position in soccer does not mean they lost their egos. Ego works differently for everyone so I can't explain what it is cause I have various opinion about it, but I definitely know that it doesn't correlates with soccer positions.
Either are possible, but the state that sae came back in is the teller for me. He didn't come back normally and like he just wanted to switch, he was clearly tired and stressed about something and the tone was so different from when he left, and from what we hear he only scored a single goal in his last game despite trying for a striker. but your argument is possible as well.
About sae and rin I don't think it's like the sasuke and itachi relationship and I hope it won't go in that route cause if it does it will not make any sense at all. Sae gave rin a reality check of what beyond the fields he plays against high schoolers their are more advance, talented, and other skilled players beyond his comprehension. Even though there dream was to be strikers together I don't think it is crushed like rin thought it was cause if sae is a midfielder he can pass to rin to score goals right?(I know this is a simple conclusion) so the dreams isn't crushed at all since they will still play together, but sae will rarely score if wants too. Rin was a in middle when that happened I think so of course he will be emotional and I think his brother didn't care about him. I mean if have a dream together with your siblings of course you will be detrimental. Rin was trying to be like sae, think like sae, and trying sae soccer moves if he just went with his own style in soccer then he will improve drastically, that's in the U20 arc when rin was sticking his tongue out sae said you not trying to copy my playstyle anymore you jnlovkbyour own ways( I don't think he said something like this I just don't want to look it up will I'm trying to type. 😅). Rin just have to realize he can't copy his brother anymore, but idk if he realized it or not. Sae is a good brother but he should communicate with rin tostraighten their relationship including rin too.
@@Bunny-blue Sae was not given a reality check. He was broken. He did not choose to switch because he wanted to. He chose to switch because he could not beat the best strikers. He lost. He wasn't unsuited to be a striker. In fact, he was phenomenal as a striker. But he was overshadowed. And he's given up on being a striker.
@@Bunny-blue And also, their dream wasn't to "play soccer together". It was to "be the best strikers" AND "play soccer together". Rin, seeing Sae suddenly give up on the dream they had been working at for years, couldn't understand. He didn't understand why Sae would give up just because there were better strikers. That turned into hate, and a desire to get back at him. To Rin, Sae giving up on being the best striker is equivalent to telling Rin to kill himself. They made a promise, and Sae broke it.
I don't think Sae got his ego crushed. I think he just wants his brother to get the shine as a striker while Sae's using his amazing playmaking abilities to help his little brother get chances
After reading and listening to this, Rin to me is like Hisoka in Food Wars basically their original motivation. Rin to Sae is Hisoka to Erina. They were okay with being 2nd best as a long as the person above them is the one they respect the most. Rin and Hisoka never had a goal beyond that, they were just okay with being second best
i dont even think he lost his ego he grew a bigger ego, the fact that when he came to japan he shifted his interest from being the best forward to the best midfielder in the world shows and that u can see from the little interactions that he has in the series/manga thus far that hes the biggest egoist so far in the series. take the likes of ness from bastard munchen whos a midfielder and just a lackey to kaiser instead this guy sae says no one is good enough to recieve his passes which is against the mindset of what midfielders should think like
I think it's too soon to assume he failed. He could be like Atsumu/Kageyama where he had a change in perspective and saw the one who controls the pitch as the most dominant and important role.
@@OutlawTruthatched the entire vid bro. Sorry to have offended you, just sharing my opinion. Edit :- most of what you said, I can get by reading the manga myself. Title feels clickbaity. Not saying it's not a good vid. Just not the one I was expecting from a 24 min video out of which 13 mins is basically the retelling of the u-20 match Edit 2- sorry everything past the 7 min mark is a retelling. You have your opinions here and there for sure, but you can't tell me that this is purely a character evaluation vid
If he wanted to make a real video he would have to research for the reason why he failed, but there's not that much info either way. Sae met a crazy monster with talent and hard work, that's why he backed of from striker. That's his whole stick
@@OnePieceFanForever "that's his whole stick" i meant that to Sae. There's not enough info on why he stopped being a striker. Now that i read that again, it sounded like an attack to the utuber. My bad
Long story short, Sae is legit pulling a itachi I don't think that sae ever wanted rin to stop playing football, he just instead wanted him to play football with his heart and not just because his brother plays it It's literally an itachi-sasuke, how am I the first one that noticed this- Also when sae said "Piss off,Rin. I don't need you in my life anymore." I legit think that he was crying Istg someday we will see sae's point of view and I will be proven right
I feel like Rin and Kunigami could switch and it would work since both of them have their strengths in IQ and Physicality respectively as well as Kunigami having a great connection with all three of the players around him
For those who don't understand That women in the cage was her grandmother,when the girls grandparents get old her parents locked them up in a cage it was ritual that has been going though her family so when her parents get old he also did the ritual
I have a good suspicion the player who broke Sae’s ego can manipulate the field like Isagi, and Rin is going to end up being a midfielder like Sae for the Isagis goal
Isn't it Luna from real Madrid? Cause I don't think having his Meta vision crushed would be enough to make Sae give up being a striker, that means Sae is lacking something he thinks Rin has. I found interesting when Sae said that Rin hasn't changed his habit of drooling with his tongue out, since during the whole Blue lock early phases we never saw that side of him, even when he went against the world top 5, so maybe he went to the middle field in hope a natural instinctive striker would take his place.
✨my analysis✨ Rin relied too heavily on Sae. Almost like he was codependent on him. Sae assumes that him going to Spain would cause the distance to let Rin grow as his own person and be good all on his own and when he sees that it really hasn’t changed, heavily scolds him goes about it the way he did. You do have to be cruel to be kind. edit: If someone I love/care about is content being in my shadow and not the absolute best, I truly understand why Sae did what he did. A lot of your answers are really in your face when you think about it. Oh, what happened to Sae? Ego answered that.
What is so hard to believe with me is that Rin became cold because of this reason plus sae wanted to be midfielder and rin was kinda childish but sae went way too far
i dont remember putting "explained" in the title but i did explain the theory about his crushed ego, it was never explained in the actual manga and is something i just thought of. enjoy your day!
I dont understand Sae. I dont know what happend to him, but I dont think anything could justify how he treats everyone around him, including Rin. It just feels like he couldnt handle the fact that there are way better players in the world than him and now he is making everyone else a victim to his frustration.
Rin is mad annoying for me cause of that they won the u-20 match and this dude was still pissed af he ain’t even hang out with them when they were allowed to leave
Doesnt kinda make sense tho cuz he could've scored multuple times in the game Blue Lock game, he may not having been doing good when he first left, you got to also realize that being the best Striker versus being the best player of in the World leading to the best player of all time is different
I wonder about videos like this. I’m not mad or anything. But this whole video is just summarizing every panel in a chapter. Is this legal lmao. It’s not even like a chapter summary it’s just panel by panel with pictures too.
I feel like when sae left rin, rin couldn’t have gotten sae to be a striker again anyway, as even if he did win, sae probably would’ve said something like “see, you’re better than me now. You can easily surpass me, I have no need to be a striker.” Or something else. So really, to be honest sae wouldn’t have been a striker anyway
uh, sae wanted to be the best striker w rin being the second. not the best midfielder that was his new goal cuz he wasn't an egoist, and this broke the promise with rin, and rin hates sae now cuz of that
It’s still so hard to believe that sae got his ego crushed but yet is still so talented

Players like Xavi, Iniesta, Zidane, Modric, or Platini are at least top 20 best players of all time, and all midfielders.
Sometimes, the fans go to the stadium to witness the actions preceding the goal, rather than the goal itself. That’s why I believe Sae is not a failure at all.
I think your wrong about itoshi sae failing to be an egoist or losing his ego because I change his position to be a midfielder instead of a striker it was just a reality check hy realizing he is not suited for it at all and midfielder work best with his skills. Just like niko remember before he went offense and aim to be a striker but after being against isagi in the soccer match he realised he is more suited for defense and take excitement by crushing people goals in that position that doesn't mean he lost his ego he just realized that this is much more btter for him just like Aiku he realised that going offense wasn't suited for at all in the U20 vs bluelock arc. He went to being in the defense position now cause it works best for him. People being in a different position in soccer does not mean they lost their egos. Ego works differently for everyone so I can't explain what it is cause I have various opinion about it, but I definitely know that it doesn't correlates with soccer positions.
Either are possible, but the state that sae came back in is the teller for me. He didn't come back normally and like he just wanted to switch, he was clearly tired and stressed about something and the tone was so different from when he left, and from what we hear he only scored a single goal in his last game despite trying for a striker. but your argument is possible as well.
About sae and rin I don't think it's like the sasuke and itachi relationship and I hope it won't go in that route cause if it does it will not make any sense at all. Sae gave rin a reality check of what beyond the fields he plays against high schoolers their are more advance, talented, and other skilled players beyond his comprehension. Even though there dream was to be strikers together I don't think it is crushed like rin thought it was cause if sae is a midfielder he can pass to rin to score goals right?(I know this is a simple conclusion) so the dreams isn't crushed at all since they will still play together, but sae will rarely score if wants too. Rin was a in middle when that happened I think so of course he will be emotional and I think his brother didn't care about him. I mean if have a dream together with your siblings of course you will be detrimental. Rin was trying to be like sae, think like sae, and trying sae soccer moves if he just went with his own style in soccer then he will improve drastically, that's in the U20 arc when rin was sticking his tongue out sae said you not trying to copy my playstyle anymore you jnlovkbyour own ways( I don't think he said something like this I just don't want to look it up will I'm trying to type. 😅). Rin just have to realize he can't copy his brother anymore, but idk if he realized it or not. Sae is a good brother but he should communicate with rin tostraighten their relationship including rin too.

@@Bunny-blue Sae was not given a reality check. He was broken. He did not choose to switch because he wanted to. He chose to switch because he could not beat the best strikers. He lost. He wasn't unsuited to be a striker. In fact, he was phenomenal as a striker. But he was overshadowed. And he's given up on being a striker.
@@Bunny-blue And also, their dream wasn't to "play soccer together". It was to "be the best strikers" AND "play soccer together". Rin, seeing Sae suddenly give up on the dream they had been working at for years, couldn't understand. He didn't understand why Sae would give up just because there were better strikers. That turned into hate, and a desire to get back at him. To Rin, Sae giving up on being the best striker is equivalent to telling Rin to kill himself. They made a promise, and Sae broke it.
I honestly believe that we'll get to see more of niko's awakening during the vs ubers arc. man's definitely one of my favs in blue lock
I don't think Sae got his ego crushed. I think he just wants his brother to get the shine as a striker while Sae's using his amazing playmaking abilities to help his little brother get chances
After reading and listening to this, Rin to me is like Hisoka in Food Wars basically their original motivation. Rin to Sae is Hisoka to Erina. They were okay with being 2nd best as a long as the person above them is the one they respect the most. Rin and Hisoka never had a goal beyond that, they were just okay with being second best
Bro who the hell is hisoka
@Iego he meant Hisako Arato. Erina's right hand woman
Yeah I love how hisoka and gon cooks in food wars shit is crazy
It’s crazy all these big defensive plays were made by guys all on the Ubers their defense is really built different🤯 game bouta be crazy
i dont even think he lost his ego he grew a bigger ego, the fact that when he came to japan he shifted his interest from being the best forward to the best midfielder in the world shows and that u can see from the little interactions that he has in the series/manga thus far that hes the biggest egoist so far in the series. take the likes of ness from bastard munchen whos a midfielder and just a lackey to kaiser instead this guy sae says no one is good enough to recieve his passes which is against the mindset of what midfielders should think like
An absolute masterpiece of a video
Really appreciate it. Consider subscribing if you haven't already!
@@OutlawTruth i definitely had to keep up the amazing work ill be watching
I think it's too soon to assume he failed. He could be like Atsumu/Kageyama where he had a change in perspective and saw the one who controls the pitch as the most dominant and important role.
Kinda thought that this would be an evaluation of Sae's character rather than a retelling of the entire u-20 match, ngl
Bro skipped to the U-20 part and watched from there. There are other portions of the video.
@@OutlawTruthatched the entire vid bro. Sorry to have offended you, just sharing my opinion.
Edit :- most of what you said, I can get by reading the manga myself. Title feels clickbaity. Not saying it's not a good vid. Just not the one I was expecting from a 24 min video out of which 13 mins is basically the retelling of the u-20 match
Edit 2- sorry everything past the 7 min mark is a retelling. You have your opinions here and there for sure, but you can't tell me that this is purely a character evaluation vid
If he wanted to make a real video he would have to research for the reason why he failed, but there's not that much info either way. Sae met a crazy monster with talent and hard work, that's why he backed of from striker. That's his whole stick
@@nerfedmann aye chill bro he did make a video which takes effort let's not be toxic
@@OnePieceFanForever "that's his whole stick" i meant that to Sae. There's not enough info on why he stopped being a striker.
Now that i read that again, it sounded like an attack to the utuber. My bad
Itoshi sae the itachi of blue lock
Long story short, Sae is legit pulling a itachi
I don't think that sae ever wanted rin to stop playing football, he just instead wanted him to play football with his heart and not just because his brother plays it
It's literally an itachi-sasuke, how am I the first one that noticed this-
Also when sae said "Piss off,Rin. I don't need you in my life anymore." I legit think that he was crying
Istg someday we will see sae's point of view and I will be proven right
Lil bro just retold the entire story without adding anything 💀
Did indeed add things, try watching again!
And you clearly lack listening skills 🤡
Did you even watch the video mate 😂
His ego was probably crushed by Luna
Itachi and sasuke of football 💀💀
I feel like Rin and Kunigami could switch and it would work since both of them have their strengths in IQ and Physicality respectively as well as Kunigami having a great connection with all three of the players around him
I think Isagi will be able to reawaken Sae's striker ego in the future. Just cuz its blue lock, even Aiku awakened his half striker ego.
what he said no forward can receive his passes.
Ryuusei: hold my beer i will devour you prick
For those who don't understand
That women in the cage was her grandmother,when the girls grandparents get old her parents locked them up in a cage it was ritual that has been going though her family so when her parents get old he also did the ritual
what is blood waffling about🔥🔥
Tf are u saying nigga who's grandmother
Bro what?
Is bro on the wrong video
what are you watching ? That sounds interesting ?
I have a good suspicion the player who broke Sae’s ego can manipulate the field like Isagi, and Rin is going to end up being a midfielder like Sae for the Isagis goal
Isn't it Luna from real Madrid? Cause I don't think having his Meta vision crushed would be enough to make Sae give up being a striker, that means Sae is lacking something he thinks Rin has.
I found interesting when Sae said that Rin hasn't changed his habit of drooling with his tongue out, since during the whole Blue lock early phases we never saw that side of him, even when he went against the world top 5, so maybe he went to the middle field in hope a natural instinctive striker would take his place.
@@glcsander probably not Luna, they have an age gap of 9 years so they've never been on the real youth team at the same time
Blue Lockers best motivation: trauma
✨my analysis✨ Rin relied too heavily on Sae. Almost like he was codependent on him. Sae assumes that him going to Spain would cause the distance to let Rin grow as his own person and be good all on his own and when he sees that it really hasn’t changed, heavily scolds him goes about it the way he did. You do have to be cruel to be kind.
edit: If someone I love/care about is content being in my shadow and not the absolute best, I truly understand why Sae did what he did. A lot of your answers are really in your face when you think about it. Oh, what happened to Sae? Ego answered that.
Good work!🙌
Thanks so much!
I'm really getting Itachi - Sasuke vibes from this brotherly interaction
The way he played with Ryusei is the way he should had played with Rin
Who could possibly be more amazing the sae that would make him not want to be the world's best striker
i think sae will play in the sub 20 and will get his ego back :)
Itoshi lowkey underrated
Which one💀
5:44 bro could of entered his villain arc
Looking forward to the anime adaption
thanks for the recap for those who cant read
What is so hard to believe with me is that Rin became cold because of this reason plus sae wanted to be midfielder and rin was kinda childish but sae went way too far
Sae is itachi confirmed new favorite blue lock character unlocked 😂
bro just read me the manga, he didn’t explain nun 😂
i dont remember putting "explained" in the title but i did explain the theory about his crushed ego, it was never explained in the actual manga and is something i just thought of. enjoy your day!
Isagi would definitely face against Sae in Neo Egoist if they beat PXG.
They won't the pxg team is stacked with shidou zanetsu itoshi rin etc
He was probably crushed by Kaiser after the new chapter
my guy litteraly was describing how the u 20 match went
"and while isagi was getting swallowed up" 💀💀
Who else believes Sae itoshi is better than kaiser?
Maybe a video topic in the future 😳
Sae is the better player. Kaiser is the better scorer.
@IFRIMAN Isagi aint really allat tho he has his moments but so far he's very inconsistent
not really they don't play the same position, it's like saying Reo is better than Nagi even tho they don't play alike.
@@uchiwamadara4614 I get what you're saying but Nagi is objectively better than Reo
If sae's ego got crushed by somebody we have seen it's definetly either kaiser or leonardo luna
Been revengeful is not the same as having egotism
Who said that?
@@Julian_Loki Me because revenge against one person cant beat egotism been above all else!!
@@TruthOfZ0 What??
@@Julian_Loki Its me the one who said that xD
@@TruthOfZ0 Ohh alright.
Background music?
Sae is using the itachi method
Itachi still the better brother 🤭
If he joined Blue lock the story would be different 🥶
I want to play like him
I dont understand Sae. I dont know what happend to him, but I dont think anything could justify how he treats everyone around him, including Rin.
It just feels like he couldnt handle the fact that there are way better players in the world than him and now he is making everyone else a victim to his frustration.
Rin is mad annoying for me cause of that they won the u-20 match and this dude was still pissed af he ain’t even hang out with them when they were allowed to leave
I am pretty sure leonardo luna crushed his ego by showing him diffrence in skill
If you look at Rin's backstory, Sae was always a jerk. Rin was just an exception until he wasn't.
Luna humbled him way too much 😂
4:00-4:05 you can tell Rin words did touch Sae for but a moment tho.
Doesnt kinda make sense tho cuz he could've scored multuple times in the game Blue Lock game, he may not having been doing good when he first left, you got to also realize that being the best Striker versus being the best player of in the World leading to the best player of all time is different
I mean ts happens every single day irl so it’s not too hard to believe imo😭
I love when youtube titles give spoilers to anime-only viewers
It's only really a spoiler if you watch the video, the title and the video is just a dissection and theory on my part. Nothing is confirmed about it.
SUUUIIIIII
banger vid
I wonder about videos like this. I’m not mad or anything. But this whole video is just summarizing every panel in a chapter. Is this legal lmao. It’s not even like a chapter summary it’s just panel by panel with pictures too.
I have not seen a single video on yt where sae's name has been pronounced correctly 💀
because no one cares
@Outlaw Truth just like how no one cares about your channel, mr outlar toth. Have a good day!
i cant bro, the way you say sae makes me laugh so bad
Womp womp
Great video. Can you do Barou or Aiku next?
barou's definitely on the list, i'll see what i can do with aiku as well.
@@OutlawTruth niiiicccceeeeeee!!!
someone explain to me why Sae praised Isagi like he did? I still don’t get what he sees in Isagi.
He sees the power that he creates from his ego in himself and other players like Rin.
That MC type stuff
1. Because Isagi is "him" and 2. Because he wants Rin to feel some type of way to increase his ego
Awesome
His ego doesn’t crushed he is a midfielder
I feel like when sae left rin, rin couldn’t have gotten sae to be a striker again anyway, as even if he did win, sae probably would’ve said something like “see, you’re better than me now. You can easily surpass me, I have no need to be a striker.” Or something else. So really, to be honest sae wouldn’t have been a striker anyway
On what app or software do you use to edit your UA-cam videos??
Inshot
Mf is still a beast without even trying
Luna destroyed him💀🤣
I feel like sae did excatly what itachi did too sasuke make him hate him so he gets stronger and one day comes for him
He Failed as a Brother to when luna changed Sae in real madrid💀
BRO UR RIGHT ABOUT THAT ITACHI PART. BUT PEOPLE DONT LISTEN TO ME >:)
Do a vid on be blues soccer manga pls
Bro got humbled by leonardo luna
Rin is just isagi, but better
Sae is just Hiori, but better 😂
Hiori stocks thru the roof
😂 this manga and it's Obsession with strikers ..
it was leonardo luna😂
1:22 thats not sae
It is indeed sae, chapter 4 I believe
@@OutlawTruth that's. Sway
I think he saw Messi and Ronaldo 😂 and decided f*ck let's become a midfielder.
Messi isn’t a striker 😮
IMO 2:23 kinda felt like itachi and sasuke?
Common Truth W
indeed indeed
What if Sae’s ego wasn’t fragile ?
could niko technically have meta vision?
Maybe now, but wouldn't venture to say he did beforehand. Metavision is supposed to be the key to breaking to further heights like isagi does.
He might showcase it this current match however I doubt he'll ever be able to use it to it's full potential
Dude was from being a nice and wholesome brother into a cringey egoist
Sasuke and itachi vibes lol
Whats wrong with being a midfielder
should probably put a spoiler warning 🤷♂
uh, sae wanted to be the best striker w rin being the second. not the best midfielder that was his new goal cuz he wasn't an egoist, and this broke the promise with rin, and rin hates sae now cuz of that
I said this in the video
Wait anri teieri = theirry henry 🧐🤔
yep lol
9:30
Isagi getting what now??
9:30
1:26 why does sae look like that
early designs were iffy
