Bachira has a monster inside of him, but how should I feel? The creature just lies there, looking through the window.

I sound like an old man shaking my fist at a cloud, haha, but seriously... the "monster" as "killer instinct"? Sure. Interesting idea, and cool to think about. After that, I just so profoundly disagree with everything Ego Jinpachi says, believes, and does that watching this show just raises my blood pressure, haha. That and hearing Inosuke's voice is a little odd, haha. It really just seems so ... adolescent, and profoundly ignorant of soccer and developmental psychology. They go on about how "transformational" Ronaldo, Messi, and Neymar are supposed to be. Sure, no one would deny that they are generational talents, and it's not an exaggeration to say that Messi and Ronaldo in particular have literally changed how people play the game. And yet, not one of those players have one the World Cup, even though obviously Argentina, Brazil, and Portugal have great teams backing them up, and Argentina and Brazil have won the whole thing before. Then there's this whole ret-conned idea that soccer was "originally" played with 11 strikers? Positions and formations didn't just evolve "by accident." They evolved because they were effective against other teams at the time. How does it move Japan "forward" to go back 100 years in time? How does that help them win against teams that make use of generations of accumulated knowledge and strategy? How does it help Japan understand the subtleties of that system and appreciate *why* it is the way it is and therefore begin to critique it and figure out what they could do to beat it? I want people to OUT-think, not UN-think. Instead, we get this reactionary essentialism. Tearing down shit for the sake of tearing it down doesn't create anything. Telling players that they're "cut out for" something or not based on past performance isn't "making" anything. Ego isn't "making" a great player. He thinks his job is just "finding" one and then putting it in the right conditions to flourish. "Fixed mindset" vs "Growth mindset" ... blah blah. I HOPE, sometime soon, we start seeing some big twists that reveal some ACTUAL insight beyond the level of a 10-year-old armchair fan. Maybe all of the teams are told the same spiel about numbering, and all of them believe that they are actually on the brink of being eliminated? Maybe like you said there's some ultra-secret back-end project where Ego Jinpachi is using the feeling of unfair treatment and the desire for revenge to rebuild disqualified players like Kira and use that resentment as fuel to come back as "last boss" rivals? That'd be interesting. Right now, I just have to hope for that, because it seems to me that "Blue Lock" (the "Blue" because Japan's national team is called "Samurai Blue;" it's their color) is ironically locked inside a quintessentially old-school Japanese way of thinking, and isn't even self-aware.

Suppose I should clarify: at least I agree with everything you said. That's something, right? Hahaha

I'm pretty sure Meguru's monster is his game instinct, but this guy definitely has some issues in the head. I mean, while it's true that not all 300 of them would get into the National team, they are taking even that chance away from them with this (I still don't know how would they want to do that without getting a public backlash, but hey, whatever). Personally, I think it's the chance of being so good you get selected that pushes you ahead to be better, not getting locked somewhere to play hunger games for one spot. I had a pinch of hope for the whole system when Ego introduced the match system because I thought it would be good for the guys to try different roles on the team except for the striker. And a second later, my hopes got crushed again. The positions weren't made just for fun or something. There is a reason why there are more defensively oriented players on the team. I've said it in my reaction and I'll say it again. If this story finishes with Blue lock producing this 'hero' they want, only for the Japan National team to lose the same way or even worse than they did last time, I would consider the author to be an actually great storyteller. Like this, and if Japan wins in the end, just feels like a wish fulfilment of a coach from the couch (trust me, we have enough of those every time some big championship rolls around, this is exactly how they think)

I think the fact that there are so many dynamic ways the story can play out from intention to result already lends to why I find this story quite exciting so far, honestly. And keep in mind we don’t definitively know the reality of elimination, if they really can’t play for Japan, only what Ego told them, which I don’t think is too reliable. But only time will tell.
