Such an amazing episode. Isagi was finally able to understand Rin's view on the field and how he's able to manipulate everything around him, be it opponent players and someone of his own team. It's one thing to predict a certain move of a player or the plays he or his teammates eventually make, but to think that Isagi went so far ahead to let Rin think he predicted Isagi's move, just to outsmart him with something completely new was extremely satisfying to watch. This was also the first time we've seen a back-heel goal.

In the meantime Bachira was still struggling with the monster inside of him. In all this time where he was on his own without any friends, the monster gave him company. With his awakening Bachira parted ways with all the monsters and showed us the most stunning dribbling so far. Nobody was able to stop him, even when Nagi, Barou and Chigiri attacked him all at once.

Unfortunately Bachira wasn't ready for the constantly evolving Isagi, who even predicted Bachira's awakening and stopped his shot. With such an intensive and close match it's hard to tell who comes out on top, but nonetheless I'm super excited for next week and the final moments of this spectacle.

That shit was hard, but damn. Poor Bachira, i thought this game would've ended with him sealing the deal. Only for his winning run to be thwarted by Isagi, who foreseen it with the sharingan.

This has to make me ask though, how don't these guys see their opponents coming to block the shot? I refuse to believe these guys are outrunning the ball going at that speed and putting themselves in a position to block it lmao.

Anyways,this game is still up for grabs. They may steal it back and Bachira may actually get his winning goal 😅

Nice Bachira manage to be freed even from his own monster, and be back to the square one with all that solo actions. Even if its cost his friend, at least he's having fun, and return to his own ego. Till Isagi arrive from behind surprise mf him with his magnificent armor, y'know. Yes, that's how you make a glam for your good-night time. Another perfect additional time there, and i need to sleep too...

3 episodes for 1 match??seriously. How much more are they gonna drag this shit
go watch haikyuu 1 match 1 season

Haikyu has full, up to 25 points unless tie break which has gone to the 30s multiple times, 3 if not 5 sets max matches. In Blue Lock the matches from the 2nd Selection can go up to just 9 goals.

Also, this anime has adapted 4 chapters at once in the past. If this episode only adapted 3 and scored one singular goal in 24 minutes then I think it's understandable to complain. But of course BL fans are incapable of taking even the slightest disagreement well and they go insane over a minor nitpick. I shouldn't be shocked.

The match is still intense.

Rin's team has a better chance at winning as we just saw Bachira countering 3 players of Isagi's team and all that's left is Rin to enter and finish the match.

Isagi has learned well from that free kick which cost 'em a goal. Loved seeing Bachira finally break free. The CGI shots were so ugly though, way more of them than usual.

I just resonated with Bachira and the feelings he's showing, because I felt the same way, when playing football. And the overall setting just made the episode so exciting.

Isagi and Rin playing 6D Chess after 5D Chess after 4D Chess, while Bachira going through the classic BL evolution of "No passing, Ratio, I'm scoring, L, Donkey" moment

It's being a heck of a match but it should be clear Isagi's team wins in the next ep as he went through the most evolution from this match alone

Wow the match only gets more intense, that goal from Isagi was amazing, he totally outplayed Rin there lmao. 

The flashbacks from Bachira were interesting as well, guess he finally awoke from his inner self, he finally found his own voice, that transformation and the animation was amazing. 

Bachira was about to score but Isagi saved it, holy shit, what an cliffhanger, the match is far from over yet. 

This is it, the last stretch to victory, who will take the crown? It's 4-4.

Isagi is good at taking his time to analize what went wrong in the last play and what he should do next, one day he will catch up to Rin lol

if Baron was the one in the barrier, the kick would have been different... so Isagi has to be like Rin... using Isagi (himself) in a different way lol

once again Isagi using Barou as a decoy, while the King deals with the annoying ass guy... he is not even funny, just kick him out already lol

with everyone ewaiting to see where Isagi will pass, he did it to the opposite side, waiting for Chigiri to speed up
Isagi then did a diagonal run, expecting no one would follow, but as usual, Rin read that lol
Isagi pretended to be screwed, but it was also part of his plan, with Rin getting ahead of him, Isagi used his backheel to score

after explaining his play to the team, they are ready for the last dance, with 4-4 on the score, next goal is the end
Bachira is back to his monologue of wanting to catch yo with Rin and Isagi, time for him to evolve? wll he score the last goal and win the game?
Rin is also planning something by using the best efforts of his teammates to score the next goal

lol the guy calling Chigiri "the girl with all speed and no skill"
with 2 guys pressing him, he has to pass the ball to Rin, making it a fight with Isagi, which loses again ... Rin then passed it to the glam guy
Nagi jumped higher with his foot than the big guy with his head? really? but glam guy stole it back by going even higher with his foot lols (how is this not a risk foul? putting their foot this high... anyway, with Isagi blocking Rin, the only free pass is Bachira
now that he got the ball and has a perfect vision of everyone in front of him, what will Bachira do? with him worrying about what to do, Chigiri had more than enough time to reach him and steal the ball
LOL Nagi asking him if he is losing on pupose and if he expects to get picked to the winner's team ... tbh, while Isagi's plan was to get him back, if he is not good enough, will he still choose his friend over someone like Rin or the glam guy?
with Nagi telling him they will pick Rin, Bachira feels hopeless, he won't be able to play with either of his idols anymore ... better pick up your form lol

Barou had the ball and passed it to Isagi (wow) and expected the ball back, which Isagi did, contrary to what happened during the rest of the game
after a lot more monologue (seriously that's enough, holy shit...) Bachira tried to steal Isagi's ball, but he managed to pass it away to Chigiri... except Nagi himself cut the ball and left it ready for Isagi's shoot... which was then stopped by Rin (wtf speed? he was behind Isagi and got to the goal faster than Isagi's shoot?)
somehow the ball went straight to Bachira, he wanted a last chance, and that's the one, so he kept running alone to the opposite goal, while trying to make his monster leave him alone, and with only Isagi to stop him

finally completing his awakening, Bachira nutmed 3 of them and made everyone move to mark him, leaving the other 3 free to a pass... that's not looking good lol
more boring monologue from Bachira, this time saying bye to his monster and even Isagi
but in a true Barou style, Bachira thought he could pass through all 4 and score... just to lose the ball, and possibly the game...
what will happen next episode?

the after credits, a one sided competition to see who is the most glam lols
that being said, glam guy is not as pro as princess Syaris in his sleeping tricks

Goodbye Bachira's monster, Bachira evolved but Isagi from out of nowhere somehow knew what Bachira was up to. Btw, I got shades of DBZ back when it would take several episodes for Goku to power up and fight one opponent and here we're taking several episodes for this one match lol. But at least here there is lots of character lore/background story (and power up evolving) to justify having this match take several episodes.

Can someone explain to me how the "tournament" works? I'm confused by it. 

So assuming team Isagi wins. Then they have 5 player. 

Do they have to wait until another team with 5 player is there? And when does it end? After another 5 vs 5?

I didn't liked the chapter, I've never been a fan of bachira so an entire chapter about him was annoying. The main problem with him was that he was never considered a foward, that's it and now that he finally try it in the most ridiculous way of dribbling, seriously you don't see that even in the streets, it was too late.

I looking foward seeing isagi choosing rin.

Isagi's goal was crazy!! Completely unexpected even when he was talking down on himself. Ugh amazing. I was wondering what the heck had been going on with Bachira. He was at the peak of evolving but then Isagi when and saved the goal. Hopefully, the end of the game will be in the next episode. Not looking forward to waiting to see what will happen next. Pretty intense episode overall

I actually thought Isagi is going to lose this time and go back to 3v3.

Great story and the whole match is probably the most interesting one so far... too bad is so hard to enjoy when the visuals suck ass. Wtf is even going on, there's so such my sloppy CGI and slideshows, characters look extremely ugly (not sure who draws teeth like that, but it's hurting my eyes). Jesus Christ, it's painful to watch at.
