Stadium building, merch stalls and isagi's parents entering was all anime only scenes. In the manga it jumps from aiku and sae talking to ego entering the locker room
@@Capalottt bro ong i liked the first half of the episode more cuz its so refreshing, also people be hating on everything blue lock does now after the first 5 episodes, I just started to tolerate the animation its not really that bad I started focusing more on the scenes and I'm really enjoying it
I dont know why you guys dont like stuff like the build up, stadium and fans. It was great for understanding the impotance of the game and atmosphere in the pitch. Playing in front of the crowd is always different. Feels amazing and it makes a little sweet pressure which was fantastic. This episode actually made me miss my old days and reminds me that great feeling when I was a player.
@@_Jayson1730fr, lots of blue lock fanse have unrealistic expectations like suddenly expecting Isagi to suddenly win in a one on one against Rin, yes, people genuinely believed that some magic would make that happen.
@@Cam_bit I wish they showed the game for 10 episodes; we already finished Ep6, and 8 episodes remain for the season to end.. how they going to show the match then post match then start the next arc is beyond me.. match should have started by episode 5..
I think the issue is they set a decent standard last season, as much is it’s story driven, the hype moments make blue lock what it is, we’re worried it won’t hit the same in those moments but we will have to see
The story isnt what you go for in Blue Lock, its just Isagi calling himself inferior to player A and then next episode calling player A trash rinse and repeat. Its the animation that drives the show, its all about the hype moments, and thats the same reason you watch actual sports, for the hype moments.
i like the build up tho it makes me feel like its finally happening and its like im in the facility, also, it shows how much no one went there to see bluelock, they all are there to see the u-20, and made their victory and the audience cheerings more meaningful imo
i am sorry guy but it's very likely to be a power point presentation for the rest of the match. this seasons is worth than the first one even when they had to rush it because of the world cup now in s2 there're only bad news about animator quitting, insane dead line, scene cut, even the fricking director quit the only way to salvage it is to give 1-3 months breaks to give time for the animator it's a shame because the manga is among the best of the industry when it come to visual
one thing you won't have to worry about going forward is the pacing being too slow cos with how much they have to cover now, every episode will be getting straight to the point and maybe even too fast paced
Can someone suggest the soundtrack bgm used to introduce both u-20 and bluelock….. Or the soundtrack running and showing the blue lock preparing for the match Its sooo amazing and soothing as well as pumping soundtrack Please suggest me 😭
3:17 Scoring on a first touch consistently, is still impressive. Even if it's not special. Nagi' doesn't take first touch shots, he usually controls the ball before shooting. In terms of the skill of people in blue lock we've seen, not the world 5... I don't think most characters are doing first touch shot/direct shots and scoring. 8:30 Relatable. 13:30 Fax man! Blue Lock more like Blue Balls.
i’m hoping that they are just showing the beginning of the game and the rest is all movie studio animation budget quality. The manga panels look crazy, they better amp this up with dbz aot animation
i understand your guys pains man... this is my favorite manga and ngl the hype leading up to this game kinda let me down with this animation... i know its annoying to keep saying it but duddeeeee, its just depressing.
@@Upen16s nah dont lie to people, many build up moments in this episode weren't included in the manga, I could argue they did it better than the manga and I got hyped
guys they already renewed it for season 3, so they won't be cancelling it. The only thing we can hope for is a studio change, or the current studio to pattern up. But idk tbh.. If the production execs were bold enough to do this, knowing the reaction.. they might do it again next season atp. It's annoying bc from that 1st epsiode of season 1, the ending scene.. they can clearly do top level animation when they want to.
The reason why the animation isn’t good is because the studio behind it has a bad production schedule given by the production committee, they have pretty average talent in terms of their animators(not much of animators). And compared to the first half of season 1 they had a lot more animators but after the first half of season 1 a ton of animators left the project so now they have less manpower. So bad schedule to produce anime, average talent, and not many animators= bad animation
I understand the situation with the animation bro but continuously sulking cuz you're disappointed throws off the reaction for everyone. You're the hype man and to see you like that is tough.
It doesnt throw it off for me. I want to see their real reactions. Im not tryna see them fake hype/satisfaction. Thered be no point in seeing their reactions
@@phdinfootsies2107 I would argue that if people hadn’t been exposed to the media's constant criticism of Blue Lock's animation, they would probably be able to enjoy the episodes without overthinking it. and they would have appreciated it for what it is. after seeing a lot of memes and vids about the animation quality, I'm 100% many opinions were swayed and made them change their perspective making them focus more on the flaws than on the story or characters, I'm sure akin brothers experienced the same thing
@@EchoRayX Bruh…I def wouldnt argue that because its not just bad animation it is literally no animation. Like it is pretty much impossible not to notice in the first few episodes. Esp ep 2 I think it was. Shidous still frame heel kick…that ep gave me eye cancer😂 This week animation was still bad but I do agree that if you had no idea/expectations, it could pass. Its on the borderline of watchable. Ep 6 only I repeat. Everything before the lack of animation was super distracting imo
@@EchoRayX Like I truly honestly have never seen an anime with animation this bad except for Black Clover. Not even a joke. Its so distracting. And I have watched a good amount of anime. Im not the kind of guy that watches all the random seasonal anime so maybe animation that trash is more common than I think
unfortunately, the animation is confirmed to be doomed, even for the u20 match.... I'm a manga reader, and I would love if you guys can react to the manga instead, it is 10x better, insane art and hype
they're not the type to react to manga, plus, manga reactions are. I saw a few of them before and unless they do a good voice over themselves, it doesnt hit the same as watching an actual episode.
@aminfaka8986 definitely, anime reaction is better but I just feel bad for them. They really do wanna enjoy blue lock, but it seems like they are suffering lmao, I also want them to enjoy this masterpiece too
just so you guys know this isn't the animator fault for this trash they were rushed and some even quit because how little time they had for s2 so they replace alot with stills aka png lmao , they shoud have did what haikyuu done take a damn break no reason for bluelock to come back that quick atleast 2025 summer they could have released s2
6:18 Was that foreshadowing just now? 7:30-7:45 So that's how you got so far in One Piece. 9:00 A screen just went Karen & then the camera moved up. Sneaky 8bit. 13:48 Neither could Rin but the point of this match was to A) Beat U20 & surprise Sae & B) To get Sae serious & irritated. Mind you, all U20 players mastered Flow so BL are left with only the element of surprise. 17:00 Captain, smile on his face, friendly but OP. They really picked the perfect va for Oliver. His personality screams Rengoku.
I'm giving this show one more episode, if the animation doesn't get better than im dropping this season (im a huge blue lock fan btw and am caught up with the manga)
Damn y'alls reactions to Blue Lock have become very jaded and not as enjoyable imo. If all you want to see is action go watch real life football highlights lol.
@@lack_of_awareness yes and we all know that and some of us dont care as much and it doesnt need to be said multiple times in every episode and in this one they also started crying about the pacing etc... it was really exhausting to watch
Bro if the story is good , idc about the animation. If I want to watch insane animation I’ll watch DBS or AOT. I love this sport, and I love this anime. They could literally be pixelated and I’ll watch it

Crazy🤯
And in top 5 in 2024

I'm gonna be honest, even the animation of season 1 was mid compared to other anime but at least it moved...

10:07 this is why yall are top tier. Only reactors I seen who guessed all 3 right, AND quickly, for the right reasons, too
Not really any point in talking about animation since its probably not going to change. Just try to ignore it and enjoy the best arc in sports manga
Fair enough, just a bit frustrating when last seasons was solid

this is NOT the best arc in sports anime

How did they predict it bro 😭 im not gonna say but yall know what i mean if u read the manga
Every winger who played the exact same formation knows EXACTLY how much you need to run for this to work😂

its about analyse and backstory soccer is the last thing K

Nice video guys!
i actually like the first half of the episode when they show everything before the match this shi got me so excited
yall should do manga reactions🤣🤣
i am sorry guy but it's very likely to be a power point presentation for the rest of the match.
this seasons is worth than the first one even when they had to rush it because of the world cup
now in s2 there're only bad news about animator quitting, insane dead line, scene cut, even the fricking director quit
the only way to salvage it is to give 1-3 months breaks to give time for the animator
it's a shame because the manga is among the best of the industry when it come to visual
They did this season to dirty
Isagi’s main weapon isn’t direct shot or volley it’s entirely something else
This season is so cooked, I had hope and we get this shit
don't complain too much
W reaction bro 😎
U20 was my favorite arc of all time bro its so good i hope even a bit they improve the animations
my question is how can they animate multiple people moving but not, but do still frames in a 1v1
yeahhhh been waiting for this
one thing you won't have to worry about going forward is the pacing being too slow cos with how much they have to cover now, every episode will be getting straight to the point and maybe even too fast paced
Can someone suggest the soundtrack bgm used to introduce both u-20 and bluelock…..
Or the soundtrack running and showing the blue lock preparing for the match
Its sooo amazing and soothing as well as pumping soundtrack
Please suggest me 😭
the first part of this episode is anime filler, manga just got to the "here's the subs, go and btfo them" instantly
😭😭😭
Some will say you were tripping but I was right there with you a little scared we'd go the whole episode without seeing any of the game
