Sae Switching It Upto An Eleven
The Trigger Needed For Everyone To Evolve
Itoshi Sae resumesthe match by dribbling past everyoneand showing them why they’re all half-baked. It’s a great moment for Rin to finally start severing ties with his childhood and embracing his true self, and it’s obvious that only Rin is able to shut down Sae, which he proved by stopping Shidou from scoring.
Following the counterattack after the whistle is arguably the most intense few minutes fans will witness inBlue LockSeason 2, with Bachira finally out of the shadows and joining the fray. One can’t help but feel joy at hearing the original devil boy’s theme and dribbling skills.He single-handedly dodged past U-20’s strongest defenders; if that’s not on the Itoshi brothers' level, then what is?!
The Counterattack Frenzy Begins
The Most Intense All Out Battle Ever
This is the peak moment of the series so far, with Sendou stopping Bachira from scoring. It’s clear to everyone that this is it. There are no strikers or defenders anymore; it’s about stopping the other team and scoring the final game-winning goal at this point. At this point, even the audience and commentators are in shock at how exciting this match has become, which fans aren’t feeling any different.
But the key moment of the episode is our boy, Isagi, finally close to completing his puzzle and knowing what his role is; Isagi linking up perfectly with Rin,stopped the goal, and, in a twisted egoist way, forced Rin to unlock his true inner potential as well, which was no less than a horror anime scene!. The match is almost over and everyone is on edge and ready to give their 200%; fans can’t help but admit that they were harshly treating the series so far, because at this point the animation and production were amazing, not perfect! But superb compared to how it started off.

Every detail helps the experience, from the dynamic movements of the players to the focus on period-accurate emotion.

With sound design and musical score, this episode gets amplified by a massive amount of tension and excitement. Combining silence when things get too much and adrenaline-filled music when things go pop makes for a rollercoaster of emotions. Clickbait doesn’t come close to doing this justice, as the voice acting is also top-notch, the cast nailing the stress, the determination, and the camaraderie that goes with being on the field.
