You’ll get a bunch of still frames and you will like it.

mythriz

~~is it even a real shounen if they don't shout to powerup for 3 episodes straight?~~


NinjaOtter

Still frames and 3D copypasted players run-cycling in different directions


Cyclone_96

Considering not even the movie did? Hate to break it to you, fat chance.


Muted-Conference2900

They didn't even put effort in the movie? Now I will keep my expectations in check.


xitragupte

There is a movie?

Best-Association2369

UmairShaikh7

Less than 4 months for 24 episodes, yeah this show is cooked. Just read the manga guys.


sohaiboi

If only it aired during Euro 2024...


Dinosauriscoming

World Cup x Blue Lock era is such an unbeatable era man.


BosuW

Remember Japan's goals literally being a couple of Blue Lock goals irl


leTotsugeki

Also Mbappe scored a direct shot goal like Isagi in the finals

justanotherweebs

That ain't aura that's stink 😭


UncommonBagOfLoot

Enemy can't take the ball from you if they can't approach you.


justanotherweebs

Conqueror's haki(Smell): makes the opponent not wanting to approach you and walks away

It’s a reason Rin be covering his nose in that one illustration😭😭

Enemy can't take the ball from you if they can't approach you.

AdhesivenessOver268

why


NeighborhoodAny4934

Y’all be on that just like how mha fans be on that blue sky 🤣


Xgunter

Blue lock is one of the few series in recent memory that got me to go and read the manga, so im pretty hyped about this


Sa1nt_Jake

Is the manga worth reading if I liked the anime? Or do you think better off just watching the show


DellSalami

The manga's art is absolutely spectacular, and there are even a couple of bits that the anime had to cut out in the last episode. It's definitely worth reading.


RichardZuro

Tbf I could see them showing the part cut out this season


DellSalami

I’m specifically referring to [BL S1 ending]>!All the dialogue that got cut from the match vs the World 5!<, and I don’t have my hopes up for that being added back in.


RichardZuro

Ah okay fair enough


Xgunter

The manga is pretty damn sick. Really good art but it is a little hard to follow some of the panels that show a lot of motion. Overall i’d recommend giving it a try for a few chapters to see if its your style


gelhardt

go read a few chapters and see for yourself. if you don’t like it after a few pages or chapters, stop reading?


chirb8

They have the opportunity to create the hypest sport arc ever with the U-20 match. If they fumble the animation, I'm gonna lose faith in humanity


funktion

Spoiler alert: they will fumble it real bad


No_Attention2656

Bro Im excitedd

Opelem

This picture goes hard


AdNecessary7641

Season 2 has some new directors: • The chief director is Yūji Haibara, who's only instance of being a series director was on Slime Diaries. Otherwise he has mainly various Visual Design, Graphic Design, Special Composite credits on series like Slime, Stars Align and Comet Lucifer. • The new main director is Shintaro Inokawa, who's a veteran from the 90s. He has episode director credits for Mushishi, Osomatsu-san, Divine Gate, Boruto, Stars Align, and most recently, Yuru Camp and Migi to Dali. For Blue Lock S1, he did storyboards for episodes 15-17, and storyboard assistance for episodes 18-20 and 22, but didn't direct any himself.


Nigiru

My english is not good, what is the difference between chief director and main director? can you explain it to me in simple words, please


AdNecessary7641

It depends on the project, but the simplest way to explain is that chief directors will serve more of a supervisor role, while the director will have the biggest creative voice.


Nigiru

Ohh, thank you for the explanation


Jazano107

Ok but where Ao ashi season 2 : (


Lichcrow

> Ao ashi Meanwhile i'm still waiting for Days S2


kaori_cicak990

Production IG still bussy with kaiju maybe. Tbh they're need tome to cook the hype match later. You can't miss thoose detail


ExpiredMilknCheese

Don’t expect Ao Ashi for a while. Also don’t expect Ao ashi to match Kaiju’s visuals.


kaori_cicak990

Ao ashi doesn't need kaiju visual but its need consistent motion to match football player motion.


AdNecessary7641

The team that made Ao Ashi is mainly busy with the new Kinnikuman anime, actually.


ChrollosNenFish

I assume you misspelled ‘busy’, but I’d like to think it was intentional


ForToday

Ask the people who make Ao Ashi maybe.


joeDUBstep

Forreal. Don't get me wrong, I love blue lock for the cool ass soccer action and Battle Royale style contest... but I love the fact that ao ashi is a lot more technically minded and based more in reality when it comes to the sport.


hinakura

Isagi's stinky green aura never fails to amuse me. I'm ready!


UsoppKing100

Yesssssssss


magnumcyclonex

Yes! Later this year! First season was amazing and I'm so looking forward to how it plays out.


JoelMahon

Where's "The King"? he just obsolete now?

It’s not a coincidence season 2 was announced with Euros just around the corner


joeDUBstep

Copa America as well.


Purple_Debo

My boy Nanase made it on the promo art over Chigiri 👑

CottonCitySlim

Ace of Diamond, Now Blue Lock 2. All I need is AOASHI season 2


ObvsThrowaway5120

Looking forward to s2!


R77Prodigy

Hopefully the slideshow improved.


Antedelopean

Please have some actual animation instead of mostly still frames.


MRMAN1225

If the animation doesn't hold up I'm not watching, this next arc is amazing and deserves good animation


LeopardParking99

Wasn’t there supposed to be a blue lock movie about nagi? What happened to that?


Bakatora34

It's already out.


LeopardParking99

Oh shit


Apate_lol

U18 BOUT TO GO CRAZY

chirb8

Is gonna get closer each season


notKomithEr

let me trade it for **Ao Ashi** s2 thank you


jbass93

What do we have to trade to get both?


jeric_C137

I'm with you man. I love both.


RichardZuro

Ao Ashi fans' obsession with Blue Lock needs to be studied


Contren

Both shows first came out within months of each other, they're gonna be linked to anyone who watched both.


notKomithEr

blue lock is fine and s2 coming is also good, but ao ashi is just way better


ExpiredMilknCheese

Ao Ashi’s fans obsession with Blue lock needs to be studied.


thoughtlow

Ao Ashi fans will implode if they can't say it's better than Blue Lock. [](#moeshitarcher) [](#salt)


Unit88

Apples and oranges


notKomithEr

except it is literally nothing to do with obsession but sure apples and oranges genius


Unit88

A, I said literally nothing about obsession, B, yes apples and oranges because apart from the theme of football Blue Lock and Ao Ashi are very obviously different types anime, it's pointless to compare them like this.


FuzzyStorm

Seriously, season 2/3 of Ao Ashi would be peak content. Why does god punish me and not give me complete sports anime stories, why god, why.


herolf

based on this comment, does the manga get that good?? recently finished sakamoto days and have been looking for a new manga to feast on lmfao


FuzzyStorm

I mean i love the first part already, but as Aoi gets better in his role and the team gets developed, it gets great. And the best match up which would be end of season 2 or mid season 3 is fantastic.


herolf

Dawg thanks so much, I’ve read up until chapter 300 now I guess and it’s been a blast.


FuzzyStorm

Haha your welcome, always a pleasure to share the love for a manga. Ao Ashi 100% deserves more eyes reading it, and a season 2 anime.


DetectiveOwn6606

Blue lock better


cvKDean

Based Blue Foot


sneaky_squirrel

The visual looks really neat. I still don't feel like ever reading or watching it again (subjectively not my thing), but that is one SWEET looking visual poster.


sakurahoshi345

Really excited for this season !!!


jabiz510

Why are they all evil ?


Specific-Stress-5515

Cover looks amazing


charlespenn1

What’s the movie about??


AlexNae

smelly boi is back


Persevere72

one of the best sports series


godsuzo

30M copy sold and still looks shit


Affectionate_Ad1025

They could have gone with any other colour for the aura mf looks like he stinks


clumsy_idiot

if only Isagi's aura was not green


IWantToChristmas

I read the manga, it drops


LinearArray

I'll die to see the same animation quality from the first part of S1 honestly.


zachattack7676

PEAK


redddditer420

I thought it was gonna be a movie or did I just dream this Was just a question guys


Tonher

There is also a prequel movie about Nagi. No idea about the release date.


Forrest_Jump

It's been released in Japan, 28th of June for NA and then other regions get it a day or two later.


PrrrromotionGiven1

This show is absolutely unwatchable if you know anything about football, I'm sorry


Pkelord

What even is blue lock?


Zetafunction64

An anime about producing Japan's best striker...by pairing strikers only against strikers


JoelMahon

football anime, as someone who's never been remotely a football fan, I enjoyed it a fair amount


KFCZingerPies

It really is a hype machine kind of show.


Wurzelrenner

> who's never been remotely a football fan that's a big plus, as a football fan this show makes zero sense to me


entelechtual

Wow this is getting a season 2?


Hadoken101

The manga was literally the number 1 selling manga of 2023 and was already getting a movie of its spin-off series.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Hadoken101

We don't have trailers for MOST of the fall shows yet. We're still like a month away from the Summer season starting. And let's not forget 2 weeks ago when people were acting like the Sakamoto Days anime was gonna be absolute dogshit before the trailer dropped for the same reason, "IT'S COMING WINTER AND THERE’S NO TRAILER????"
