I'd like to point something out about what Isagi said in the last scene because it's kind of a mistranslation.What he actually said is something along the lines of "I believed that you'd manage to come here alone" which gives different meaning to Isagi's words.He's not just telling him he predicted what was going to happen.He's telling him that he had faith in him, that he'd manage to go all the way without needing anyone else - and that faith in him resulted in Isagi's prediction, which I find very cool.

[@jadenjerries2094]

Oh that makes that scene SO much better. Isagi acknowlodging Bachira instead of just diminishing all the development he got.

[@famoladejo3655]

Crunchyroll pls pin this comment others need to see this it makes the scene 10x better

[@Legolukas6]

If i remember correctly, he says something like this in the German sub. When an anime on crunchy is only in English, i feel like the quality is often lower.

[@matthiasmarcoux6382]

In the french subtitles Isagi literraly said "I believed in you Bachira, i knew you were gonna pass everyone" which is a good mix of the both things I think

[@cool57543]

That's kinda the takeaway I got when I first saw this, like I thought that's what Isagi really meant. Glad to see my intuition was right lol

the aura changing to yellow...this was the best part for me, it was special

[@averyfigueroa8417]

To add on for you, if it wasn’t apparent he had blue aura because he was following Isagi so that influenced his aura until he broke away from his ego and the color changed to his aura you see in the intro. Btw everyone has a aura color respective to their eye colors so if you see someone with a different colored aura than their eyes that means they still haven’t fully awakened

[@danielwilson7193]

​@@averyfigueroa8417 More specifically, everyone's auras start out as blue. As they evolve and finally awaken, their auras change to their true color. This is most emphasized with Isagi, as his true aura is green despite his eyes being blue. The blue aura represents how each player is held back by their habits, fears and previous experiences until they break free of those limitations--hence the title of the series: *BlueLock.*

[@lennongarcia9642]

Isagi: “the bell doesn’t dismiss you, I do”

[@senbujohns4489]

Some people say he was doing nothing during his build up but that's a whole skill called juggling where you keep the ball from touching the ground. The way he caught the ball behind his neck (neck stalling) is such an iconic skill from some of the greatest players of all time (R9, Ronaldinho etc...) and extremely used in freestyle where it's so unconventional it makes the opponent stagger. the way he was juggling the ball was so that none of the his opponents would commit to a full on tackle. That's how he used to dribble, before the monster even appeared. He finally claimed back his primal form where he can beat anybody on 1v1. That was beautiful, The fact that Isagi even beat him there when he has awoken. Great episode.

[@tganims9804]

The spin was stupid but that was it

[@bearwithme9433]

​@@tganims9804 I think the spin was exaggerated not stupid. If you played a sport that deals with moving your entire body. Spinning is a great way to lose your opponent if they are clinging to you.

[@garyfelderhoff3671]

spin was exaggerated, also OVER 3 OF THEM? i can understand getting past barou, MAYBE Chigiri, BUT NOT Nagi. Thats nagis thing. If he has a god tier first touch he would read one of these touches. I've only seen messi get through something like this and it was because of his unique close dribble running. i love soccer/football. But this anime has a lot of BS.

[@cryptik2482]

⁠​⁠@@garyfelderhoff3671can’t expect too much realism for an anime. plus bachira isn’t playing against the same level players as messi

[@mimimikail2603]

It's crazy to think that the only reason Bachira didn't end up scoring the Goal was because Isagi simply believed in him and his skill. Isagi knew and trusted that he could get all the way to the goal by himself.

[@donnyklueger849]

There’s a reason that even after going against Rin, the number 1 player in blue lock, he was still determined on getting back Bachira

[@OK-fo5tm]

Another translation for what Isagi said, 信じて“I *believed* that you would do that” implying only because Isagi knows Bachira so well and believes in Bachiras abilities that he could predict Bachiras next moves because she believed Bachira could evolve and awaken his true abilities.

[@raccoonchild]

It was the only translation possible after they got "That's why Meguru *believes* in Isagi Yoichi" right. It kills me that they keep ignoring the very intentional poetic patterns in Kaneshiro's writing.

If he were saying "I knew you'd come," O feel like that'd sound more like "Yapari kuruno, Bachira." So not sure why they chose to translate like that when there's a totally different context to "I knew you'd come here alone, so I was able to stop you" vs "I *believed in you* coming here/ making it here alone, Bachira." It's alot sweeter that Isagi believed in Bachira's ability to grow and get thru 3 top tier guys all his own, rather than that Isagi would simply read his play.
