I guess got too fired up from the last segment that I forgot to mention Isagi's goal LOL. So here are my thoughts: Aside from the amazing animation of Rin and Sae all the way to the goal, I really like the way the camera "falls" as if Isagi hit it with the ball, something that you see happen once in a while in actual games. The whole final sequence just encapsulates everything they did well in this arc (i.e. visuals/symbolisms, music, voice acting, some cool camera-work at times) to create the feeling of hype and being in an actual football match. That's why I like it. Also, it would've been so poetic if I mentioned at the end that Blue Lock matched the 4-3 score that Liverpool got against Barcelona. A comeback in every sense.
It geniunely started piss me off cause of how people can't even do the bare minimum of researching whether blue lock was really animated by 1 guy or not. Lost so much brain cells everytime I read a comment on any video about blue lock
Let me tell you why I am really mad at Blue lock. You can really see that the animators and rest of the staffs have all the talent and skills to made a fantastic, amazing season. The last 4 min of the last episode and multiple times in s1, speak for itself. The artwork is Superb. Almost every frame is a wallpaper material. Only if they were provided with enough fund and most importantly enough TIME, we could have get one of the most amazing sports anime season , not this abomination. I also like to blame the fans a little bit. The higher ups knew even if they produced an uncooked..... Fcking RAW product , the fans would gladly eat it.
Don't sugar coat it the higher ups took advantage of our emotions to gain profits. You can't always blame the consumers when all we're doing is just watching our favourite story animated and then get taken advantage of by greedy capitalists.
The fact that they were able to make these last few episodes as good as they did showed they tried to compensate their lack of good animation by making what they _could_ do the best they could. Even with just sliding JPEGs they managed to up the hype to a point that it _felt_ epic. Art direction is just as important as the art itself; being able to _feel_ the action _move_ in every scene, even if it really doesn't shows a high level of competence.
This one of the few football anime that we have gotten so even if the animation isn’t that good, ppl watch sports anime for hype moments. The higher ups defo used that to their advantage. Imagine if it had S1 animation bro😭🙏
why did yalljust make entire paragraphs on some animation? like bro A gun, also known as a firearm, is a weapon that shoots projectiles using pressure or explosives. Guns can be used for many purposes, including military, hunting, and recreation. How guns work Guns use pressure or explosives to propel a projectile Projectiles can be solid, pressurized liquid, or gas Solid projectiles can be free-flying or tethered Large-caliber guns are also called cannons History of guns Guns made of wood or bamboo were likely first made in China around 1000 AD Guns were originally designed for military use, but later became popular for hunting The first bolt-action rifle, the Dreyse needle rifle, was invented in 1836 The revolver was patented in 1836 Machine guns began to emerge in the 1860s Types of guns Light machine guns Also called squad automatic weapons, these are operated by one soldier and equipped with a bipod Medium machine guns Also called general-purpose machine guns, these are belt-fed and mounted on a bipod or tripod Heavy machine guns These are automatic weapons that fire ammunition larger than that used in ordinary combat rifles Gun violence Gun violence can cause serious injuries, death, and psychological trauma Gun violence can also make it difficult for people to access healthcare
How tf did you even watch the episodes to reach there, Bro it has like no story its a pure hype sports anime that needs good animation to be good. Love the manga tho.
@@sravanpatri5851 How can you say it has no story when there are people watching it despite barely have any animation? It may not having a stellar story but it’s good enough to keep people hooked on the show and ignore the animation.
Nope, we should still call out bad cuts when they show up and remember the ones that happened. Cut the animators some slack, but do not let up on any producers forcing shit to be rushed. I've learned that from AOT Final Season's bad start.
@MajedAbdulsalam even with the deadline animators managed to do a great job, but this mf's from thé production comitee decided to cut 75% of animations
10:45 the goal was amazing but on my country sub translation instead of Shidou saying "I'll knock you up" he said "I'll put you pregrant" that killed a bit the moment for me lol
i watched that game, im a westham fan but my friend is a liverpool so we went together (i didnt wear any kit lol), that match was absolutely unbelievable, will never forget it.
S2 started so poorly, but i'm glad i stuck with it. The lows were quite low but the highs...my god they were amazing. The last episode was genuinely incredible. It needed more time clearly, but i'm not naive enough to think it's that simple. We can only hope that moving forward more time is given to the people working on it.
My qualms were never with the animators. It always was, always is, and always will be the ones pushing and rushing an arbitrary deadline they themselves set. It causes these completely avoidable problems in the first place. And just doing it right at the end doesn't negate the fact that they started poorly. This is no race, every step matters. And I feel sorry for the animators but not the producers forcing the rush, they get every criticism that justly comes their way. And the investors aren't off the hook either, it's their fault the producers rush it.
The good animation in the last 4 episodes and the great animation in the last episode in particular, will not make up for the PNG and Power Point presentation that we got in the first 10 episodes.
15:47 tbf there are cases in the past where a talented animator animated an entire episode. Eminence in shadow comes to mind where the director himself animated the final episodes of both seasons, he was the only one credited as "key animator" at the end those episodes. Same with devilman crybaby episode 9 Kojima animated that entire episode. A lot of early Naruto episodes were also handled in bulk and most of the action was done by Norio Matsumoto. But yeah doing 5 episodes in a crunch schedule makes no sense.
I still find this season as a disappointment. I was an anime watch till the end of season 2 and except the last episode, I didn't even enjoyed a single part of it, cuz it never felt like they were playing and after that I read the manga and become more disappointed like this is the arc you do such injustice to, really?? I loved it in the manga, I do find the lack of effects and it's black and white colour pallet makes it a better experience. I just wish the animators got more time so the whole season could look good
I gotta say having Nagi's goal made justice made me feel really happy despite how poorly that episode looked early on, he's clearly the author's favorite character and deserved that high
The thing is, people really dont mind waiting two to three years for a season if it means we get great animations and art. Take haikyuu for example. Damn gorgeous anime beloved almost unanimously.
It’s great that u bring up the animation and how it’s not 1 guy working in 5 episodes bc god I had to tell my friends that so many times but like u left out isagis part ik it’s a nit pick but he the main man
THANK YOU for talking about the 1 animators sthick. Like 22 cuts for the span of what? Five episodes. 22 LAYOUT cuts total for 5 episodes. It genuinely baffles me to see people just say the one animator crap. They pull up, run their mouth and never respond. Or they be saying: "Nuh uh uh~" like what do you mean?! Those people are so damn itelligently insufficent.
You're comparison of Blue Lock's last few episodes to a come back in a football match was perfect. I was one of the believers of BL until like episode 7 where I gave up then came back for the last few episodes. A phenomenal Christmas 😂
I didnt finish blue lock s2 yet so i didnt watch the vid but from what ive heard they did the thing where (if u watched ONK s2 aqua mentioned this) they use a shock factor where the animation was bad mist of the season then hit us with the last episode,it peobably wasnt on purpose but that happened and most people forgot about the rest of blue lock s2
yo bro do you have a gaming channel? like horror one? curious because you are a good commentator while i know you focus on animes and stuff i think you would do well on gaming commentating scene especially horror. :)
i personally never thought of animation quality while watching this anime, because the storyline of the anime was totally awsome, and animations were also in my opinion were good
That's how you know that blue lock is a good manga specialy the u20 arc, even tho the animation was trash you still get hyped, just imagine how would it be if the animation was like the final goal for all the season
I've watched season 2 until the 7th episode, when the guy fart slided into the frame, and said to myself "I'm done, I am not putting up with this shit anymore". I've watched about 2 minutes of this video and saw a resemblance of good frames and instantly went back and just binged watched 7 episodes. Honestly, thank you. I would have missed out peak story writing if not for you karu.
I would really like to say this, I very rarely comment on someone on TH-cam in the sense that I never do it, you are probably the first person I seriously do it to. Maybe it's just me, maybe there are others, but what you do is incredibly funny and I can only say that what you say about animes is absolutely true (more or less). I'm not giving this comment to make you answer, I'm doing it because I finally see someone who actually made me give a comment. (i will copy paste this on your next video)
YESSSSSSS YESSSSSSSSS YESSSSSSSSSS 😭 Finally my goat 🐐 ISAGOAT is being recognised as the champion he is 🔥❓❗‼️💯❗ OMG it's all over the screen Also liverpool is my club too UP THE RED 🔥 But damn bro 😭 the hate for TequanBrathWaite is unreal

According to people
1 animator doing 5 cuts and leaving the production = 1 animator creating 5 episodes by himself
@dumflamethere's no way thats possible tho like physically in that amount of time
Dude I don't know how people say it's animated by one guy. LOOK AT THE F*CKIN CREDITS SCENE

How guns work
Guns use pressure or explosives to propel a projectile
Projectiles can be solid, pressurized liquid, or gas
Solid projectiles can be free-flying or tethered
Large-caliber guns are also called cannons
History of guns
Guns made of wood or bamboo were likely first made in China around 1000 AD
Guns were originally designed for military use, but later became popular for hunting
The first bolt-action rifle, the Dreyse needle rifle, was invented in 1836
The revolver was patented in 1836
Machine guns began to emerge in the 1860s
Types of guns
Light machine guns
Also called squad automatic weapons, these are operated by one soldier and equipped with a bipod
Medium machine guns
Also called general-purpose machine guns, these are belt-fed and mounted on a bipod or tripod
Heavy machine guns
These are automatic weapons that fire ammunition larger than that used in ordinary combat rifles
Gun violence
Gun violence can cause serious injuries, death, and psychological trauma
Gun violence can also make it difficult for people to access healthcare

Stop blaming the animators, instead blame the studio for giving a horrible deadline, which did not allow them to make good animations. @MidnaBlues
