This match has been going on for some time now and most of it is just Rin and Isagi from blue lock’s side.. and a bit Barou and Reo as well when they were subbed in, which is not exactly wrong, but yeah, to see someone like Bachira not even getting couple of minutes completely over himself these last few episodes does leave a sour taste in mouth. Good he got here otherwise it felt like they just forgot to write any impactful part of his in the match lol. That bit kind of looked good as well, surprisingly xD

Still anyway, the match is about the brothers or at least that’s how Rin sees it. Shidou should’ve gotten a card there tho, I mean it felt really intentional lol. Though that being that, Rin’s monologues about how he wanna change and he wants to be the main character may feel like something we’ve been hearing since the very first episode, but yeah, it’d lead to something, this time... you can see in his eyes(literally). They did a great job at showing the uber high intensity though this episode. Not sure where they'd leave us in finale btw.

Oh, and Rin got a sharingan upgrade. Pfft.

If Shido kick Rin's head at his full strength, Rin wouldn't be able to play anymore, he might even die on the spot. That means Shido notice Rin's in his way so he hit the brake on his kick, it's not that Shido has high moral, he just doesn't want the match to be halted if someone heavily injured.

Additional time confirms that Shido is just a normal teenager after all. Yes, he has the urge to impregnating something, but who doesn't? LOL

Damn, that’s one way to end the episode on a tense note! Isagi’s taken the limelight by observing Rin closely but for Blue Lock to take the win, you’d have to imagine Rin will have to be a big piece and if it feels like that’s finally come around. Can we get a dope Isagi - Rin link play now?

Bachira’s solo run was quite something mid-episode there. Capt. Aiku’s little stunt as an attacker had all the right elements, I thought the game would go down 5-4 to Blue Lock, lol. Looks like we’re set for 4-3 though.

This must be some entertainment for the fans, and Japan soccer here will definitely take a leap no doubt. Looking forward to seeing what next ep’s got in store for us.

Rin is saying hell nah to power of friendship, lol.

This was another great episode where many players got their little moment to shine. In particular Bachira was on fire.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Bachira’s technique was amazing! He reawakened his monster inside him and managed to change the situation on the field!

U-20 Japan team hadn’t even a chance how good Blue Lock was!

It would be great if there were no more transitions or less-move frames. It’s not something enjoyable, the animation is fine, but the style must be changed.

The game is approaching it's endgame and the heat keeps increasing in this match from both sides. Amazing plays from both sides. The music has been so fucking good. Every one keep outplaying others. Peak stuff. On to the last episode.

Holy shit this is actually so hype. It's really making me feel the same way I was when I read this arc in the manga. Rin's part is so well directed at the end and there were so many highlight moments. From Sae in the beginning with his sick aura, to Bachira, to Aiku's shot it's all just been amazing this episode. I'm starting the last episode now, and I'm hoping this is gonna be a sick finale. This is INSANE

The final 15 minutes of the 2nd half, and a deadlock 3-3 score with Sudden Death will settle the match.

It's all hands-on deck stopping Sae, with the ambition being the biggest from the younger brother himself to beat his own older brother, even if it meant to get a kick straight to the face just to stop Shidou's goal. And with the restart, Blue Lock gains control with Isagi's new formation, for Bachira to then claim the ball with fake roulettes to reach the goal, only for Sendou to clear with space to spare, giving control back to the U-20s, and letting Aiku shine as a former striker before Rin would deflect the ball just the same.

Rin is getting aligned more on his older's brother synergy, though without a clear strategy for the last 5 minutes, only one more counter remains, and Blue Lock aligned with his strategy, it's making him score a goal, or puke at the thought of him being elevated?

Score one and all for one now, no more chances.

Finally, Bachira had his moment of glory! Unfortunately, Sendou managed to block the goal; even he has improved during this match: he no longer dreams of dating an idol, but now aspires to a Hollywood actress.

With only one episode left, I highly doubt that Isagi won't score his goal. Before, I would have thought that Rin would score the winning goal, but after this episode, which focused on his struggle to surpass his brother, his morale seems to have taken a hit. He even seems to be frustrated with Isagi after Sae praised him. Who knows, though? This could be the trigger for Rin's awakening and his chance to beat Sae.

Going from gravure idols to Hollywood actresses. Truly the epitome of character development.

Good. They realized they had Bachira on the field. Why didn't the team use him more? I will never know.

And there goes our best chance of having Rin realizing football is a team sport. We will get him next time, boys.

Super intense but what was that horror ending? I thought Rin was about 2 be super wholesome. Instead, his mind starts to break down. Bachira like always doesn't let us down when it comes to his monster dribbling. If he decides he is going past you there's nothing you can do to stop him. No new flow states but everyone has been playing phenomenally and hearing the announcer talk got me even more hyped for the game.

Those were some of the best saves I've seen in bluelock. They were S1 gagamaru and igaguri level of saves lol.

I almost thought Sendou had actually awakened lol. Seeing Sendou barely saving them from a goal and Aiku attempting to take the game winning strike were pretty cool. Rin really clutched with both of those saves. Isagi saved the final one.

Bachira and Yukimiya both awakened and almost scored a goal but were robbed of it in the last moment. I feel like almost every player had at least one small moment in the whole game. The ones I think had major moments other than the goal scorers were Karasu, Reo and Gagamaru.

Rin just rejected the power of friendship and unlocked his destroyer mode eyes or as we like to call it, budget Mangekyo Sharingan.
