BLUELOCK is a survival genre anime with a sports theme. It's completely different from Haikyu, which emphasizes friendship and unity. But both stories were very well done in their way. I love both of them very much.

The depictions of death and murder are just metaphors in the show. Basically it's a massive facility that will start with 300 boys from around Japan, all of them strikers from their individual teams. As opposed to most sports anime where the focus is team based, this one highlights the individual, with a massive focus on the word "ego". There still is team aspects though, not completely solo. The reason for the death metaphors in the op and trailer is that only 1 of those 300 will come out on top and be able to play for the U-20 Japan team. The rest are forever barred from playing for any Japan national team. Hence the survivor-type player with the blank features. This anime is a battle royale.

thanks for watching this, its definitely up there with one of the best new gens imo and its definitely the best sports anime

Blue lock is so good fam. This was a really good discovery this season! Sports anime are always so hype

also, it is going to be 24 episodes for the first season, and i think there must be a second season

1:46 um.. basically.. yeah.. but it's just ¼ of what blue lock has to offer looking forward for your future blue lock reactions! it's already on second cour, so.. hurry up! 😂 🔥

The op is by unison square garden. If you liked the blue lock op then I recommend listening to their song "Phantom Joke" it's my favorite song by them.

Mans just dissing Ego 😭😂

The only sports anime I didn't drop

Blue Lock has a way different concept than the others

Imo blue lock ain't the best sport anime for your first one cause it goes with completelly different concept than basically all the others sports anime, it doesn't necessarily give up on teamwork but rather follows it in another way. Haikyuu or diamond no ace or kuroko no basket which are probably most popular ones emphasize on teamwork and sacrifce while blue lock spits on that shit (fr) and says to play your best, be the star, and use teamwork through complementing each other at your best in a competetive way i'd say.

yessahh

We eating

How much of a new anime fan do you have to be to never see a sports anime HAHAAHAH. Bro, you missed out. Anime sucks now because of garbage reaction channels.
