Pretty solid lineup. Aiku staying captain makes 100% sense. Most experienced, and the team seems to listen to him, like during the Karasu-Isagi argument last chapter.

I'm still astonished by the fact that Aryu has stayed relevant after all this time, even if just as a defender.
I wonder how far his 'stick-limbed' trait will carry him. He's made a few sick saves, but he's still pretty much a meme of a character. I have reasons to root for every regular except him.

Other than that, Nagi has joined Buratsuta after developing the fire to become the best in the world and the match against Nigeria has kicked off.
Let's see what the players have brought back from their Ego-customized training regimens.

Oh, we're already jumping right to it....seems like a solid line-up, though it's largely the same people as the U-20 arc.

That security guard needs to get fired. But yep, to no one's surprise Nagi changed his mind about rejecting Buratsuta's offer.

Eh the character designs for Nigeria look underwhelming, but that pretty much solidifies my guess that Blue Lock will win this round.

I’m just glad the Nigerian players have a variety of hairstyles and it’s not just that goofy “Killmonger cut” that’s basically become a meme lol.

Nagi is all fired up and to no one’s surprise has decided to take the chairman up on his offer.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords.

All the bigshots in, everyone who was expected to start is starting. But a 5 at back formation with a left midfielder? lwb and lmf positions are gonna overlap but the lwb can stay to defend while rwb push forward and Bachira remain in left flank so essentially will be a 4 at back if that's the case or else Bachira will mostly play in center or cut inside.

@ryzxgum lets goooooooooo this is too sick!!

yeah surprised about barou and shidou. tho i recall before the first u20 game - ego: too many chefs spoil the broth
my guess would be if they don't have a lead by the half ego will sub them in for isagi+rin

and LOL isagi put the earphones in 100% SOLELY to talk trash. there is no other purpose XD

Nagi returning as expected. I loved the starting lineup announcements. Barou and Shidou coming off the bench to create chaos makes perfect sense.

REO IS STARTING 🙏🙏

Barou and Shidou are definitely gonna turn games around when they sub in.

Nagi IS FINALLY letting go of his codepency with Reo. Hopefully Reo has done the same.

Nigeria kinda seems like.. fodder? Its almost too easy of a win, I wonder if the author will make it more intense than anyone is expecting

Ok so I guess Nagi is going with the chairman guys plans?


Cool seeing everyone getting introduced.

The Nigeria team guys that we see ngl kinda look like fodder? I hope i'm wrong though since i'm literally just judging by designs.
