  • Blue Lock is a series that explores the ego as well as what it takes to be a world class athlete. In this video I explore three characters that demonstrate the philosophy of the series in distinct yet connected ways.

    1:27 Another reason for why Haikyuu is different is that volleyball is a sport that completely destroys ego. You only have contact with the ball for a split second and you can’t touch it twice in a row for your team’s 3 hit limit. Essentially you’re forced to rely on others

      I’d have to disagree with that. Even in Blue Lock you don’t win on your own, it’s just about putting yourself first and your desires rather than others. Isagi wants to win and is constantly shown using teamwork to achieve this, but not because teamwork makes the dream work it’s rather because it’s the most effective way to score HIS own goal because if he helps his team win they help him win. Atsumu is a perfect example of this in volleyball, as a setter he is the one who props up his hitters and gives them opportunities to score and if they don’t live up to his expectations he shits on them and calls them trash, even if it was just an off day. We also see him constantly pushing and doing things that are riskier than the safer type of set because it gives HIM more options, he doesn’t care how the hitters score because that’s HIS point, and he made the opportunity to score. The two series just focus about different aspects of their respective sports and show different parts of sports. Ego is definitely prevalent in both series and sports.

      @@YHWHsam disagree. Setter & Striker (Complete f...alse9). No mater how much i want to, i cannot solo a play as a setter. No mater how quick i want to play, my hitters determin the tempo. No mater where i want to put the ball, my hitters determin where i can put it. You cannot 1v1(or v2/3/4/5...) volleyball. Even if i score a setter dump, its still the 2nd contact on the ball. The only solo run in volleyball you can do is serving.
      Football on the other hand, if you are good enough you can 1v6 1v7. Not every teams like it, yadayada.
      Which in the beer leagues, is a real possibility for many.
      Football players are just being destroyed and made into statwhoreshipping robots who dont dare to do what Ronaldingo or Maradona tried in fear of becoming persona non grata due to all the budget guardiola's.

    Those 16 minutes feel like 30, your narrative is very good, your voice is not annoying and your script really hooks the viewer. My only criticism is the background images or videos that you put it, work harder on it. You have great potential keep evolving just like Isagi does 👊

    Blue lock balance of ego/confidence , Teamwork , Rivalry...out of all sports anime reivalries..one of the best things depedning on the blu lock instructions and round (outside the usual; soccer)
    Let me say this , I adore despite the sligth changes everyone respect the winner and loser in a team or against one on one and its legit!!!

      Personally always did it with lego's, life builds me with lego's.
      People raising me just never thought me i could rebuild my lego's anyway i want and not just how they saw fit.
      And they always complained their doormat was made off lego, really unpleasant!
      And so i tried to change again...
      But i realized i wasnt meant to be a doormat.
      Thanks Bluelock! Bachira especially!
      It is okay to be you, no mater how weird others find you.
      Let the art intoxicate you, it will be enough if you let it.
      I am the number 1 monSTAR now. Blue Lock style.

      I'm kinda like that with math. I relearned everything from the beginning even middle school concepts because I saw how bad I was but it's a very exhausting task tbh. On the other hand it's also a weakness for me because I can be easily influenced into new ideas that are actually wrong but I'll take them with as much value (maybe a bit less but close enough) as the current ones that I have. It's only recently that I managed to sort of not absorb everything and know when to "rebuild the puzzle" and when not to.

    Fans of blue lock think that other players are better than isagi because of their talents and goal scoring but players like nagi can't become the best in the world but isagi has the mindset, IQ, vision and the most important of them the luck and the ego to become number one in the world and that's why he's a character that I want to become as a football player out of any player

    • @frostyish

      Team play is being focused more and more by teams that already have good players. The entire thesis of Blue Lock is that all the rest of the team is good except for the strikers so they need to do something drastic to put strikers on that level.

    the forwards in the Japan team play for mediocre squads while the other more teamwork based positions like midfielders play for clubs like arsenal. In the 2022 world cup, it came down to penalties, which is purely individual skill. Japan lost as their individual skill fell short to the croatians

    i think that you oversimplified what Haikyuu set out to do with Kageyama’s ego and him being the “king of the court”. Kageyama’s ego is just framed in a negative light. For example his unbelievable drive and focus is also the result of his ego. Haikyuu simply shows that it’s a double edge sword. So the first antagonist is Oikawa with whom the manga explore theme of teamwork talent and ego. But later we meet Mia Atsumu and Korai who both displays a LOT of ego and yet are very successful. And narratively their presence subtly changes the meaning of “king of the court” for Kageyama (with the goody two shoes’ arc). Haikyuu shows a subtlety and a versatility in its theme exploration that in my opinion Blue lock very much lacks. To me BL’s exploration of ego is so far very surface level and sometimes too over the top. + the dialogues are cringe af 😂. But still I liked your video keep it up 👍

    The whole philosophy of blue lock falls apart as soon as it goes into the real world.
    The best team of all time is Barcelona 2009. There's no other team as selfless as Pep's Barcelona. Rejecting ego and embracing true teamwork made them unstoppable.
    Also, the best player of all time is one of the most selfless and humble person in the world. Lionel Messi.
    In football, the best team wins not the best individual players. Just look at what happened with Real Madrid Galacticos
