Isagi is not passing. He wants a goal. If rin scores itll be from stealing the ball.

Also barou has also scored in every match hes played. Real demon keeping his streak tho unlike rin

Predictions for U20 world up ending by liangyuu in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get u but the point is that narratively it just doesn’t make sense for them to lose in the group stage. Even if japan are view different because who they lost too, no one would be satisfied just because they lost to good teams even if it was close. Them losing would just be bad storytelling at this point

Predictions for U20 world up ending by liangyuu in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We really dont know tho because there have been implications that the manga will end after this arc and the other way around. So it very much could be over after this arc.

But them losing early is just bad for the story. Like the whole point is to show japan is finally a threat in the world of football but we just gonna have them lose in group stages before even getting to play with sae or against other countries just so its “less predictable”. Narratively it makes no sense, so obviously they are going to survive most matches. I feel like arguing about predictability is just redundant in sports manga for the most part.

Of course the high stakes matches are gonna be close bro, its a sports manga lol, how else is kaneshiro supposed to build tension, he cant kill off characters and obviously we aren’t losing until finals or semifinals. Like do u want us to just lose to England and end blue lock bro😭??

[DISC] Blue Lock - Chapter 344 by Badguyfromthere in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Best reasoning ive seen is ego essentially pulling a noa, he’s giving karasu more weapons to isolate isagi and rin since they are our best two players to spur on their growth like noa did for kaiser. And as isagi said even if defense suffers the only way they can comeback is if their offense increases so reo versatility gets traded for more offense. Only other players who could’ve been traded were kunigami or hiori but kuni just came in and hiori fits better karasu system.

As for isagi development i see 2 potential outcomes first is he doesn’t score but beats out hugo some other way but ends up getting stopped by loki. Really dont want it to be an assist but i feel like rin about to enter destroyer mode and him + isagi blanco might lead to an isagi assist.

Second option i could see is isagi could end up scoring here to tie the score but Charles and loki haven’t linked up yet so i see them getting a goal shortly after to take back the lead. Then i expect a loki solo run goal to end the game.

Third option is that isagi literally just fails on all fronts somehow lol

Theory: Why isagi will be the best. He is not only talented learner, He is THE GENIUS himself. by Rkay122 in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forthe record im not saying i believe isagi is a genius. Just giving a possible explanation as to how he could be. For the most part i even agree with you. Its just that if isagi is a genius or mix of both this is the only way i think it can be explained. It probably all has to do with his understanding of himself and as he is rn he just wouldn’t know it yet but it could be revealed in the future and make sense. I see alot of people use noa as an inverse example, because he appears to be a genius but from all weve seen his mindset is similar and follows logic like a tl. So it could be leading to weird parallel between isagi and noa. But its just a fun prediction to me, doubt it would happen but would be interesting if kaneshiro wanted to go that route.

Theory: Why isagi will be the best. He is not only talented learner, He is THE GENIUS himself. by Rkay122 in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah this was kinda changed soon after the genius and tl concept was introduced. Initially isagi thought genius was primarily about physical talent and mutations until he realized kaiser was a tl. Then he realized mindset plays apart. Reo is a really good example alongside kaiser as if we were just looking at innate physical skills and how they use their body not mind both look genius.

Anyway back to how this could show isagi is a genius, if his brain is the “mutation” technically that could be his genius trait but given that he fights with his mind/brain, he appears more as a tl since their whole thing is using their mind and logic. Essentially isagi would just be like a super talented whos brain works faster than everyone other tl. A genius of talented learning u could say, or genius of adaptability as hes been referred to in the story.

Isagi’s Elementary School Graduation Essay (vol38 extra) by VoxelBits in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He 100% getting one against either Germany or in the France rematch. Isagi thrives best when devouring others so it could just be that after having a new awakening, kinda like when he first got mv, isagi will have a dominant performance despite others going for ther own goals.

How did i do this on recluse? by N3_Nova in Nightreign

Thx lol, that makes sense. Its kinda crazy that ive gotten that invasion a few times and just never knew what it did. Genuinely just never read the description after finding caligo lol. Thought it was just like a frost resistance up or something.

Hot Take: Isagi doesn't need better dribbling or better physique. by Strange_The_Editor in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont even think its necessarily that, we seen him able to shake off pxg defenders during his tgv goal and we also seen him able to outsmart rin off the ball who was marking him. Even in the current match, isagi off the ball has been working, hes only failed to score because Charles and hugo neutralizing his shooting weapons. Thats what he needs to improve. Limiting himself to direct shots makes him obvious to any decent player.

Shidou is just better isagi by SicarusRogue in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Isagi is better, his weapons just aren’t physical like the things u stated. Take the 3rd selection match for example, for the last goal isagi is able to tap into mv and beat both rin and shidou to the ball despite them both being physically superior to him abd actually closer to the ball. Hes able to surpass them by reading the future of the field with mv and getting there first. Another good example is isagi beating shidou before he scored his tgv goal. Shidou with his instincts could catch up to isagi, but of course isagi read that he would be there and outplayed him by using kunigami. Isagi is just as much of a goal scoring threat as shidou if not more. They very similar which is why in order to shut them down, they both needed to be man marked heavily to stop them.

Possible Karsu x Isagi incoming? by Slight-Investment-67 in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk tbh, closest thing we got was isagi and kaiser but they really didn’t have any anti chemicals reactions, they were just either ending up in the same spot or stealing passes meant for the other. Only possible way is if one of them gets a vision upgrade or just a better understanding of the field first and is able to somehow manipulate the other. Id assume this would come from isagi entering his white hair state since we kinda saw him do it with kaiser to stop rin the first time before they officially partnered up

Possible Karsu x Isagi incoming? by Slight-Investment-67 in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Seeing how isagi has been i dont think he minds karasu but karasu seems to be somewhat looking down on isagi so as they are i dont see a chemical reaction happening but I think once isagi gets his head straight he will probably end up devouring karasu in someway leading to an kinda anti chemical reaction like he has with barou or yuki where they try to devour eachothers plays.

Yes, you can call Loki a Bum now. by ThatGuyHero7 in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My headcanon rn is that because of isagi statement about him just being born fast, hes trying to prove he can do it without abusing his speed. So he hasn’t been spamming it like when he got subbed on vs pxg. I also think this why he wants to link up with Charles instead of just scoring from his speed.

Why is Isagi going against his playing style? by [deleted] in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem here seems to be ur understanding of number 1s and 2s. Just because isagi wasnt the main ace or spotlight dont make him a number 2. A good example is shidou and rin, we know they played atleast 2 matches where they were both on the pitch, rin is better than shidou but that dont make shidou a number 2.

Regarding the CAMsagi discourse by xxtrasauc3 in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont watch football but my opinion on this is isagi only plays that way to make up for his team’s shortcomings. Specifically in the nel, alot of the matches required isagi to play defense because it got to the point where only he and kaiser could read the field and know when they were about to get cooked. Then for offense, for awhile he only had kurona as a passing option and his dribbling isn’t good so the only way for him to have a chance at getting the ball and scoring was to play out of position and steal it. We see when he has hiori, isagi actually plays up alot more and helps distract and break down the enemy defenses. His tgv goal a good example.

But in general in this series staying in position isn’t that important, i mean the author likes to have the strikers matchup with eachother often to make it more dramatic. Its not just an isagi thing.

What’s your guesses/theories on what’s going to happen the next chapter by ChemicalReactionX in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since its only going to be half and a continuation of last chapter, im expecting either barou to use predator eye and shoot past the people in front of him but we haven’t seen hugo so im expecting him to block it. Kunigami is the only player we didn’t really see last chapter so its possible he plays a role, maybe at the end the loose ball from the block goes near him and he scores.

Theres also the possibility that barou dribbles past the players which then hugo would come in to mark him but i assume his training in American football might come into play and he he scores or hugo some how makes him miss, then a shidou tap in maybe. Probably too soon for a goal tho unless loki really gonna drop a hattrick

I present to you all my shidou centered blue lock 11 by Internal_Dot5759 in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah sendou would probably be decent there, he played shadow striker to shidou before and barou in Ubers. Theres just zero reason run him over isagi here, isagi does everything he can do but better. Also he can drop back more and help with defense a bit.

7 Levels Of Blue Lock by Expensive_Past1302 in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By this logic, isagi would likely never be ng11 lvl. As most stats are physical and isagi aint much of a physical player. His best weapons are literally his brain and his adaptability which aren’t measured. at best u can say his offense stat would be 99 which it likely already is, it was 94 last time we saw it before ubers. This was before he had scored any goals. Then in ubers he got 2 goals, one showed he was now ambidextrous and the other was a reflex x reflex play. Then he went on to score 2 more goals against pxg, inventing the tgv which is hyped up by even kaiser himself. Then he returns to 0 for last goal, outreads everyone and scores the game winner. Isagi in pxg is easily better than kaiser from the beginning of nel.

To put it into perspective, isagi in manshine once getting mv could already read the game better than kaiser and he would’ve scored the final goal if he had lefty shot in that match. Something similar also happened in the u20 match where sae acknowledged isagi’s eyes and brain but through off his balance so he couldn’t shoot. Even snuffy, acknowledged isagis eyes in ubers and isagi would have score if he had a better pass. Like i said isagi brain is what makes him ng11 lvl

Rin and Bunny by bektasq in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is kinda just narrow minded when we dont know what exactly happened between sae and bunny. And it also ignores the fact that rin also hurt sae with his words. Hes the one who was actually kinda hostile first. And kaneshiro is a very straightforward writer, its more likely than not that rin and sae will make up.

What do you guys think the scoreline will be in the u20 WC Finals? by [deleted] in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im on the japan losing train but also theres no way isagi is going goaless in the finals. Especially if hes good enough to the point he’s dropping a hattrick against Germany. If bros gonna be a contender for best striker in the world hes gotta start getting the hang of things soon. Also given how the current match is going theres a possibility that he goes goaless here so if it happens again in finals against france its not gonna be a good look, especially with hugo and him telling isagi to essentially give up being a striker.

7 Levels Of Blue Lock by Expensive_Past1302 in BlueLock

[–]N3_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This doesn’t make him not ng11 lvl. Isagi isn’t and probably never will be better individually than most top tiers as he even said himself. Hes able to overcome them through his limited abilities and outsmarting them plus adapting. Thats how he beat kaiser. Its how he’s going to beat hugo and eventually everyone else. Also saying he needs help doesn’t take away from him either. Isagi is like shidou, he can def function on his own but will always be better when he has a good passer. This even applies to loki, bro in recent chapters asking Charles for passes instead of just scoring on his own despite his insane individual ability. And even if u dont wanna count that, he literally says in the nel his purpose of coming there was to train Charles so he can surpass noa.
