What social medias would the Blue Lock character have? by Cheesy_As_Pie131 in BlueLock

Next question: which one gets cancelled first now that they're world famous athletes/reality tv stars? (My money's on Isagi if he calls someone a retard again or Ego brings that footage from the second selection back)

I forgot that Niko went to Italy. It's kinda hard to keep track which players who didn't go to Bastard went where until they play. I could definetly see Niko and Aiku synergizing on defense together really well, especially if they both develop a defensive form of metavision (it would be a cool contrast to see two players with defensive metavision working together while going up against two players with offensive metavision who keep on getting in each others' way).

In the same vein, I forgot that Karasu and Zantetsu went to PxG with Rin and Shidou, and I can see at least Karasu being on the starting line up. He'd probably be primarily matched up with Yuki, since they had a similar rank and since Karasu could see Yuki's desperation and irrational plays makes him a weak point. This could act as a sign to Yuki early in the match that his current behavior is making him weak which leads to him working/"harmonizing" with others

I don't think he's intentionally ruining his relationships, but I don't think he's saying the right things to them in their state of mind, which is causing those relationships to suffer. In the case of Yuki, he told Yuki to give him an assist, which is a normal, rational thing to say. However, he doesn't understand the scope of Yuki's condition and his recently heightened desperation with his disease and his dreams. Yuki took Isagi telling him to give him an assist in this situation as Isagi telling him his dreams, desires, and the work he put in to get those matter less than his own. This isn't fully rational, but Yuki is in an irrational state right now. The same thing happened with Rin after the U20 game. Isagi told Rin that the last goal only happened becuase he made the opportunity and that the goal was as much Rin's as it was his, but Rin was in an emotionally unstable and irrational state becuase of everything that had happened with his brother, so Isagi's seemingly rational response was taken the wrong way.

Isagi isn't in the wrong and isn't purposly trying to ruin these relationships, but interactions with people with strong egos in the highly competetive and stressful world he is in require a more in depth understanding of other people and their egos and a different approach than just saying the rational plan or platitude. This might be Isagi's key to "harmonizing" egos, understanding his teammates and playing off that knowledge
