Blue Lock

RIP

And nothing of value was lost.

Who died so nagi could get in?

Ego called Nagi a fraud

KEKAROO

Withered

Kek what a bum

It's fine Nagibros, we're going to dodge the "Job in the finals" portion of the story

Nagi written out the main story for 2 years AT LEAST

Holy

Ego saying Reo and Isagi ruined Nagi

Ego is based for this

Bro heard the word 'Genius' and decided to bury Nagi 6 feet under lmao

20 pages of Ego destroying Nagi and Reo

I don't know if this is sad or based

It's based beyond belief. Nagi needs to die a proper death before being able to pull off the comeback.

Is Nagi's 'fire' at this point going to be to try to fuck over or prove EGO as wrong as possible about him? He seems to do pretty well in situations where he really wants to prove someone wrong or in negative situations

Nothing happens: the chapter

I think Reo will drop out, allowing Nagi to take his spot. Nagi's new fire will be to fulfill Reo's dream in his stead.

Just give me Isagi/Rin/Kaiser kino. Done with the Nagi/Reo shit.

Ego : Only crazy dreamers who won’t stop until they reach the world’s top belong here. If you’re a sensible man, satisfied with anything below that… Go home, Seishirou Nagi.

So is still not over? And final page ends with Nagi finally talking and wanting to say something to Reo

Is this Ego giving him a massive out to claw his way back somehow? Not like that's unheard of considering Snuffy and his friend apparently fell off hard and were dropped from their starting line-up until Snuffy had the sense to grind up from the lower clubs.

Kaiser included in the hack category

Lmao

Next chapter is titled "Innocent"

BYE BYE MONK

He did bend the knee to isagi

Question I have relating to this, when Kaiser and Isagi started working together to settle the goal 'logically' and they just happened to get a goal earlier while they were passing it in between each other would they not really care/be frustrated about it? Ness not being involved at all. Or only get post-goal realization after the fact.

Post goal realization after the fact Ness being involved just added oil to the flame

AOMORI'S MESSIBROS... NO...

The point of blue lock is only one striker will emerge victorious. Be prepared to say goodbye

Pretty much

He honestly should be grateful to have gotten that far, how long did he think his gimmick would last him?

Will this be the final lock off system? Next arc is the U-20 World Cup and pretty much, out the 23 players, only 6-7 will act as strikers (Isagi, Rin, Shidou, Barou, Bachira, maybe Chigiri, Kunigami and Otoya too)

nagi is going to the "wilder card"

Nagi had no place in this from the start, he deserves to go back to being an unloved hikki-neet that spends all his time playing gatcha slop

buries the fujo characters

Enjoy cancelation in a year's time

literally me what a goat sadly im schizo like bachira. anxious like tokimitsu. stupid like zantetsu. lazy as goat nagi "the god of death" seishiro

Ego: Seishiro Nagi realized his dream of “defeating Yoichi Isagi”.
You know what ruins “talent” the most?
The loss of “hope”? “Despair”? “Fear”? No...

Ego: It's all about “satisfaction”.
He didn't actually have the strength to defeat Yoichi Isagi.
His victory was a fluke.
Freed from desires, a satiated beast forgets how to hunt.
That fire would never return.
At this stage of the match, he had to overcome himself - even through pain,
even through defeat -
but keep his insatiable ego in a blazing state of...
nagi lost cause of masturbation

bump

Ego shitting on Nagi LIVE ON STREAM IN FRONT OF MILLIONS OF VIEWERS

he can sue for defamation

Nagi started football not even a year ago.
He can still go pro and get good.

what even was his gimmick?

diving

translate those gook runes

why is Reo even in this? He can easily be a nepo baby pro athlete and bring along his bff with him

Extremely based.
They had this a long time coming.

Oh kek

Is that the McDonald's gate? I'm only going to be sad monk is gone
Ego has been my favorite character since chapter 1 he's an edgy football autis

sense of pride and accomplishment

Damn I really hope at the very least they go their own seperate ways now and we never have to deal with Nagireo bullshit again.
Damn do I hate that plot point.

What the fuck was the point of that character?

Neru didn't get to play

Only reason why Ego let in the u20 jobbers was so that he could poach Aiku.
Sendou was a nice surprise.

carried in the first selection

carried in the 2nd selection

bench warmer during U20

bench warmer during the 3/4 of NEL, develops his VAR tricking gimmick between matches

finally gets to play during the last NEL match, does well for a few key moments

opponents then learn to play around him, rendering him worthless once again

booted off the game, doesn't even get any offers

Monk lived a sad life.

He has no motivation.
That's way bigger problem than lack of skills

As a Reo fan, 100%. Let him be his own character without getting dragged into Nagi's bullshit every other scene he's in.

Muh nagi is his entire character.
There is not a single panel in this manga where Reo isn't either talking about Nagi or thinking about him.
How can you be a reofag that doesn't like his relationship with nagi when that is all that faggot ass character is?

I disagree - contrary to popular opinion, it's possible to glean his character through his interactions with everyone else (and Nagi), and how he approaches the challenges thrown his way. Nagi is a useless deadweight who's taken advantage of Reo's patience and kindness, and deserves to be kicked to the roadside so Reo can flourish on his own.

AIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEE

Still surprising it took this long.

Raichi, Kiyora, and Nanase are such obvious scrubs

nagi sae and igaguri will come back to japan national team

I liked how they teased Mr. Borderline after his moment and then did absolutely nothing with him the rest of the match.

why are the goalkeepers even part of the rankings?

nagi fags cant accept reality

if he doesnt care why should i

I hope Nagi will change nationality to Chinese or Korea for maximum kek.

Finally, only ONE comic relief is Enough

I have given up on nagi a long time ago.

What was the point of Japan expies.

Why not give everyone a second chance or only Kunigami fujos get special treatment.

Despite the tell don't show nature of his writing, this asshole doesn't care about anything. Good riddance.

That still a big salary.

What was the point of Japan expies

An excuse to poach aiku.
Gen conveniently worked out, because gagamaru can't be the sole goalkeeper.
Sendou got in, because the artists likes him.

desu Shidou is a much more reliable version of Nagi

That's like 3 million yen max.
That's less than what I make a year.

He is 16.

bro that's 3 times what I make in vietnam

Nagi is gonna come back

LMAO stop coping

Reo is the best midfielder currently in Blue Lock and Nagi has just been dragging him down.

Karasu exists

Reo is mid

correct

best midfielder

who need this shit when wings exist

This, let my boy cook without his pet project holding him back

I'm really surprised by the stupidity of people in this thread, do people really think that Nagi won't come back? After several chapters about him, he's the 2/3 most important character in the manga, being the second main point of view of NEL!? Or are people who talk about wanting Reo's story without Nagi, of them not being a duo anymore, are people ignoring the entire story and motives of the characters?

Is there any irl woman who can love like Reo loves Nagi?

positions arent real, unlike roles

He'll come back but ever since Reo started working on his imitation style to let him fill in to any role he's been holding himself back by just doing setup plays for Nagi.

Nagi spin off manga and movie have both been failures.
Kaneshiro is just speaking to its audience through Ego.

Will episode nagi eventually explore Nagi's NEL games too?

in 5 years

Nagi won btw.

If he was a good midfielder, Nagi would've scored using Reo's "creativity"

I always find it funny how people on Anon Babble like to lie. Episode Nagi is a failure, so funny how this is the only place in the world that says this. The manga has surpassed 2 million copies in circulation, a monthly spin-off, it must be the best-selling manga in its magazine and it is certainly a success.

nagi is a bumass finisher

Nagi should try basketball

he also need world class midfielder to play basketball

Nagi was only cool during the second selection.
Reo was never cool.
These two faggots and their relationship are lame and I'll take any reprieve form of them I can get

what if it's really lock off for nagi

what an epic ending to season 3.....
and we still didnt saw new vardrid offer to kaiser 500mil btw

Even if it was a 500 gorillion bid Kaiser wouldn't care and neither should you.

he is been sitting in that pose for a month and hasnt moved for a moment . i fell bad for him

He looks violated

Messibros...

500 million YEN

they should've used Euro

Last time I read this was the english scans available on Mangadex
Are they finally kicking people out again?

The real question is how the fuck this motherfucker managed to last so long, he should have been out by chapter 30

Remember when Tokimitsu was top 3?

Yeah with this chapter.
How the 4th selection worked was that blue lock collabed with 5 major football clubs.
Each player picks a club where they'd like to train and then once a week they'd play one match against eachother.
All matches get livestreamed and after each match clubs can make a bid on a player.
The 23 players with the top bids by the end of the selection will represent japan in the u20 world tourney and the rest get locked off.
Most of the people who got kicked off were no names who we never saw playing or the a u20 jobber.
The only somewhat notable characters who got the boot were monk, croco bro, the jacked pussy that was on rin's team during the second selection and nagi.
So only nagi and to a lesser extend monk.

The OG U20 team got fucking slaughtered

Damn, these guys were really huge shitters.

I recall my nigga Gagamaru ranking pretty high the last time so I'm assuming he's still safe

Was lucky to be on the protag team during the first selection then got carried by shidou who doesn't give a shit who he plays with in the second selection and after that there weren't any filters that could get booted out untill now.

Yeah he is like number 14 or something.
Even raichi made the cut.

tokimitsu really lucky that he didnt face kunigami during 2nd selection

how did tokimitsu clear the second selection solo challenge? he's clearly shit

Karasu is better

karasu

got ntred by bachira

Will Niko remain tiny or will he have a growth spurt?

I can't believe otoya is in the top 10

Why does Barou act like a king when his predator eye gimmick is just a more desperate and cowardly version of metavision?

remain

the lion rapes the small dog when he barks

If there is anyone that can hit a growth spurt it's niko.
He turned 16 during the second selection appearantly

being small is really a disadvantage for defenders

F-FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Super strong and powerful Japanese player bodies his fellow samurai

Gets absolutely bodied by 6 foot tall Euros.

Did we ever see Tokimitsu and Kunigami clash?

did nothing the entire manga

still cut in

He who controls the borders controls the 20+ spots

Remember the rankings from 2nd Selection? Top-5 according to the ranking of the survivors would be:
1. Rin (1)
2. Aryu (2)
3. Kurona (4)
4. Reo (10)
5. Isagi (16)

Remember the rankings from 2nd Selection

It's not rankings. It's the order in which they went through 100 goal challenge

This is unrelated to the story, but I really like how the characters are sometimes drawn with thick/exaggerated ink splashes and brush strokes.
I'm pretty sure all of it is done in digital, but I've been trying to replicate the effect to no avail.

Losgaex ersteit

fuck off

Lol

Shidou is an overall upgrade to Nagi

KiyoCHAD dabs on Nagi

It actually isn't

Like the other anon said.
Their rank is just the order they cleared the 100 goal challenge in.
I also doubt they all went in at the same time.
People who cleared it early are probably decent, but it's not an end all be all measuring stick.

Shit, I'm cooked then. I only do pencils on paper.
Still, surprised to see that it's actual ink. I was sure it was digital for some reason, though maybe some of the effects added later in editing probably confused me.

NOOOOO MONK! Is there any hope for him he's my favorite character let him play

It's over, that was his last chance

season 3

How much episodes do we need to cover the entirety of NEL? 48?

The meme had to end at some point.
You can only fall upwards so many times in a cut throat series like this.
Sendou will probably take his place as the buttmonkey, but it will never be the same

The NEL is literally half the manga at this point.
S1+S2 is like what, 38 episodes? You'd need at least that much to completely adapt it.

He's right, they had to hear it

this is absolutely fucking retarded

first season adapted 94 chapters with 24 episodes.

second season adapted an extra 55 chapters with 14 episodes.

24 episodes to adapt everything up untill the ubers match and then another 12-14 episode season to adapt the pxg match.

Which is why it will happen kek

nagi should die in his apartment after starving himself to tier in a gacha event and nobody should find out until reo's out of blue lock

Isn't nagi in a rich kid school with reo? he's probably loaded already

who's the vinicius jr of blue lock?

who need this shit when wings exist

Ask Real Madrid how they're doing without Kroos.

kroos

he wasnt that important
stop watching football only through tiktok

I don't care about Nagi, Reo or Monk. But I'm very mad and pissed at my boy Tokimitsu getting lock off

LOL

Aryu...

yea the fast niggers are definitely helping Real LMAO

Isagi...

train your whole life as a striker

get position as goalkeeper

against a bunch of other goal hungry teenagers training non stop to strike no matter what

still get relevant

Gagamaru should be top 5 at most. All things considered he is far more impressive than Barou or Bachira.

Him and otoya should have switched rankings.

Everyone in PXG, except for Rin and Shidou, was done dirty.

train your whole life as a striker

get position as goalkeeper

Many pros used to play other positions but switched in their careers. It was either work a wagie job or become a pro.

why didn’t loki stop declan rice free kick like he did with kaiser magnus? is there a lore reason? is he stupid?

And he's a damn good goalie too

I wouldn't be surprised the blue lock defense is god tier in the world tourney, because they had to survive in such a striker heavy environment.

What can I say reality is more disappointing than fiction. Most games are absolute slurpfests ending in a draw.

Shidou was done dirty too as a character. He was completely irrelevant in the match.

Based, total Nagi death

Can R*o also die?
I am already dreading all the times he will think about nagi during u20 world cup.

Doesn't gagamaru have the most prevented goals so far?

Yeah exactly how much do you think pro (semi-pro?) teenage japanese footballers make? $3 mill yen is enviable even for most of the U20 team I bet.

No, he will forget about him in time, and it will be all the sweeter when he's riding high on success whist Nagi rots away lamenting what he's lost.

NTR

God willing

Hot

Anri will suck the ego out of Nagi

Nagi should be sent to Brazil

nagi should start streamer career with rin and hiori
kai cenat ishowspeed horror football at 3am

lol to be fair diving is really fucking strong in modern divegrass and monk was damn good at it

Striker SHOCKS Pros With Ego and Aura (He Passed)

Raichi was included because nobody cared about the u20 defense guys

They can always do a Real Japan 7 down thee line

Is it the tears of joy?
If I remember correctly Monk's dream was just to get a salary and fuck off from his family's temple.
So... He won (I guess)

He is crying because he's placed last

RIP Wanima

He is not last. There is like 10 or more fodder guys that have 0 bids

Do Ego and Anri not give a shit about women's soccer? Has it ever been mentioned that Japan has won a world cup? Outside of the obvious answer of "no" for you and the characters, I find it bizarre it was never brought up unless the author just didn't want to bring up the scenario and have to make up a side plot about women's egos or having to directly imply that they don't matter

Nagi could probably do really well in goal. He'd certainly do better than Fukaku who's been a complete non-entity so far.

As a Nagi fan I've never wanted anything other than Reo being at least 8 continents away from him at all times.

As a Reo fan I feel the same way.

women's soccer

Name 10 pros from the female soccer league.

women's soccer is now men's soccer anyway

someone needs to knock ego on his ass

No one gives shit about women's soccer

Name 10 pros from the female soccer league.

male arsenal

as they should, it's awful

t.reo

Ego was 100% right btw.

Frankly I still think Passagi isn't worth of his price tag

Where the fuck is Aomori no Messi's hattrick? He was supposed to be better than Barrou

I mean in terms of having to bring it up
Like Ego straight up coming out and saying

"Yeah Japan is good at everything but having a star devouring striker which is why the men's team struggles. Women's soccer is lower level so all that shit I'm advertising about striker ego doesn't apply"

He's based on some real guy that appearantly always managed to position himself well to tap in a goal.
I doubt he will ever be more than a tap in merchant.

It's Blue Lock, every character is a fujo character.

I care because Reo does

bump

In a way i would love to see Kaiser go to real and usurp the team from Luna but on the other hand him going directly against Noa and Isagi in the main team of Bastard would be kino as well

Tones and FX are most likely added after the inks are scanned in. He might do some fills digitall as well, just look at his twitter.

I like kaiser, but how long are we gonna have to sit through them trying to cuck eachother?
Rereading the u20 match felt really fucking weird since everyone was working together and no one on isagi's own team was trying to block him from scoring.

Kekser succeeding at anything

I genuinely believe Kaiser will win the U20 or at least beat Isagi's Japan, perhaps setting up France as the greater threat for the official WC. A true champion's league final with Noa and Isagi going against Rin, sae and Kaiser would also be kino.

And then you woke up

Indulge me then, would you be satisfied with Isagi straight up winning the U20? He hasn't known any real defeat since signing up for Blue lock. Obviously Nagi is gonna be key in the real WC as well, so would you rather want him to lose a Noa-less France or a Kaiser lead Germany?

Isn't kaiser german?

He is, but it's obvious France along with Germany will become Japan's greatest hurdles. It's only a matter of France winning the U20 or Kaiser doing it with Germany. Japan winning the U20 would be lame AF

You’re so fucking delusional kek

Okay anon. Show me your great plan for the next few arcs. Kaiser along with Loki are the most likely rivals for Isagi.

I want Ray Dark to recruit Nagi and threaten him to sabotage Reo's career if he fails

I’m not going to write a fanfic like you but the funniest thing is that you can’t imagine new characters being introduced as if we still haven’t met half of the new gen 11 yet

Seethe and dilate. Kaiser will win the U20 and i'll laugh at your pathetic existence.

Shut up, Ness

why are just 36 players intead of 46?

Some of them didn't even get to play, like Pikachu

That's fucking unfair

There's a 10 day training period before each match where each person is supposed to make a case for themselves so they can get picked for the starting lineup.
If a character didn't get to play it means they were a gigashitter.

The farewell Kramer series literally tells you that nobody gives a shit about women's soccer in Japan. That's the driving force of the whole franchise

If you think a shounen sports manga would give a shit about women's anything then you have more faith in danseimuke than most

running gag where he passes every selection with 0 screentime
