How Bachira overcame "The Monster" (Blue Lock)

[@ZuiginBaka]

its interesting that Bachira kinda already had what made him happy with playing football yet he still gave himself a completely different goal thinking that's what he really wanted, and although he did enjoy meeting Isagi and Rin he was slowly forgetting what made him enjoy football this whole time, until he finally realized it and did what he always enjoyed without seeking other's approval Bachira has definitely been a great and relatable character for me

[@LessonsFromAnime]

Yeah it's easy to start to take things for granted, I think our brains are just unfortunately wired to always seek something "more"

[@zeli1500]

People are complex and have many needs. Connection is very strong, he finally had it and forgot his sense of freedom. Now that he's come to terms with the pros and cons of both, he's stronger than ever.

[@ralliedcookies4403]

@Emperor836me resisting the urge to correct you and say football after you just put your heart out

[@mojomercury]

I've always believed in being selfish and I'm so glad blue lock came into my life. I started listening and echoing my inner thoughts while breaking away my escapism. I'm finally using my head to help push me up and talk l tackle real life rather than hiding. Ty so much for the vids

[@LessonsFromAnime]

All the best bro 💪

[@AakashSharma-qd5uo]

Bachira is the most relatable character for me in the Bluelock because my expertise is in dribbling and I was not able to make the most out of it at the higher level because my teammates would get mad at me for keeping the ball for too long even if I was getting in better position. So, I had to change my style and be more of a passer and that really affected my game negatively. But after watching Bachira's awakening I got so emotional because it like Bachira said that when you have the ball you can do so many interesting things. He made me remember that it was the feeling of leaving everyone bitting the dust that gave me pleasure of playing football. After I finish my exam I'm going to play football for the sheer pleasure of destroying the defenders. I'm so excited to play but right now I have to study for exam😂.

[@lxGrimmJxl]

When I watched that scene with Bachira's mum talking about the inner voice.. I actually cried. It wasn't that tears fell down my face... But something inside just felt like it or he was crying.. This hit home so hard... And it also made me realise why I love my kids so much... They still see the world in such a carefree and enjoyable way, that we adults seem to have lost the ability to do so as we grow older.. Slowing down and trying to see the world from their perspective.. My kids probably taught me more than I ever could teach them, haha You are doing a real awesome job, btw. Keep it up!

[@lxGrimmJxl]

​@Emperor836 What do you mean ¿ My kids?

[@0mega_shirayuki]

On the chapter Bachira explains what his monster is for him, I felt a really powerful connection and understanding of him. But, as it was on a more literal sense and not so much a metaphoric one, I feel like it will be less likely for people to understand me if I rant about it. His monster was the expectations he had for the people playing with him, the same way we can have expectations of friends, partners, family members, etc. It's a limbo between not conforming with what we know is less than we deserve, and something so perfect and unreasonable we doubt we can really get. Yet, when you realize you're in such a limbo, what can you do? Conform to what you can have, or keep being miserable while reaching for more? I felt really understood as he took the same decision as me. "I hope I can find someone like that one day. So, monster, stay with me until then." -The translation may not be accurate cuz I have the spanish manga, jiji-

[@rybread1727]

Bachira is my favorite by far. The irony of somebody who’s play style centers around dribbling the ball (a selfish trait) being sad he doesn’t have friends is a laugh. Was crazy when Isagi and Rin left him behind in the 4v4 because Bachira’s playground style of dribbling prevents him from thinking the game on their level ( like Ronaldinho who the writer confirmed he is based on). “why are you playing soccer at place I can’t reach”

[@pedroteixeira5191]

Man, you've surpassed yourself on this one! Like, your blue lock videos always have been my favorites, but this one is just amazing! The editing, the audio, and the way you used the scenes, and the manga panels were all amazing and it truly shows your evolution! The topic itself was amazing and you truly dissected it, even more than I thought from the scene. Good job, dude! Also seeing my comment at the end was fun and nice, wasn't expecting that! Anyway, cheers dude!

[@LessonsFromAnime]

Hahaha glad you liked it bro ❤

[@d6kk]

i recently came across your videos and instantly subbed within finishing the first blue lock video you made. what you talk about in all your videos are truly relatable. currently I am waiting for my admission into UCLA, and what I have done to get a high gpa was not easy. i sacrificed almost everything this last 2 years, and I am confident whatever the outcome will be, I will be content, since I gave it my all. I truly appreciate the time and effort you put into these videos, and admire your dedication to your own goals. thank you.

[@LessonsFromAnime]

As someone who's graduated a couple years ago, the specific uni/(college in America?) Isn't going to be too important in the grand scheme of things, hope it works out the way you're hoping though 💪

[@SleeplessBrazilLimbo]

bachira is my favorite character, he's one of the most funny characters and metanarratively, the best lancer for isagi

[@NotTheWheel]

When I was little I didn't have many friends and was at that age where people have "Imaginary friends" however for me my friend was my own shadow. So when I was outside playing, I'd be playing with my Dog and my Shadow just running around the backyard chasing my shadow or my dog. Bachira's monster sorta of reminded me of that moment of my childhood. Unfortunately it didn't make me super good at sports.

[@LessonsFromAnime]

Last part made me laugh haha, I was never any good either lol, was always hopeless at ball sports

[@hajamamyrandriamanga890]

i love it so much. Especially when he awakens. It really made me cry and even now, I feel emotional about it. I glad to know him; and, thanks for the video

[@steddymine]

Bachira is my favorite Blue Lock Character. Thanks for another amazing video :)

[@LessonsFromAnime]

Glad you enjoyed it bro 💪

[@DJ_LilPaycheck]

No joke this video is definitely one some people need to hear kinda wished it was around years ago I probably would've had the confidence to take the risk on something I loved to do (long story short I was MMA obsessed and had a perfect opportunity to live in a Dojo under a family friend but was talked out of it due to not having enough confidence in myself) I've now live a fairly average life had a decent car and home but working towards new goals now hope those who still have the opportunities available to them to take that risk

[@technologyevo9361]

Thank you for making this video, Bachira is sole reason why I got into Blue Lock and that game where he awakens drives me to do more in real and streaming life

[@rinkuflash8000]

Hey as an video idea. You could talk about the state of flow that ego described. Setting goals that are not so easy that they bore you but not to challenging that they seem out of reach. And to keep that flow going. As a fitness trainer i actually think a lot of people could benefit from that approach (but not only to fitness)

[@LessonsFromAnime]

I'm actually planning to do a short video on that at some point, only a short one tho

[@rinkuflash8000]

​@@LessonsFromAnime nice. Love some of the messages in your videos. Looking forward to the Nagi Video. Super interesting character

[@quarkhead5044]

The Haikyuu OST at the end was a beautiful touch, your content is very touching

[@LessonsFromAnime]

Haikyuu's my #1 favourite anime bro, now I've realised I can use some song covers without strikes (with the creators permission of course expect a LOT of Haikyuu OST, I'm rendering a vid as I type this that's about 60% Haikyuu OST lol

Ive definitely got a few more BL videos in me!

[@plain_otaku_dude224]

Bruh the inspiration I get from these videos are just amazing. And people still call anime childish. It's honestly hard to actually do these things in IRL cause when I say this is a golden rule I put on myself that I learnt from an anime, people just think of you ass less or stupid but I've gotten use to those type of things and meh, I don't really care again. W video by the way.

[@LessonsFromAnime]

It has a bad rep, which I suppose is understandable as most people just see the cringe/weird ones, but yeah wouldn't worry about it. Glad you're enjoying the vids bro

[@LessonsFromAnime]

After SIX failed uploads (each of which taking me over an hour to render!), my 11 minute Bachira video is finally here! Come chat to other anime fans on our DISCORD: discord.gg/8xkPxSykK7 Let me know who you want to see next! QOTD: Who's the better player? Bachira or Nagi?

[@spongebobbrother123]

I would definitely like to see a breakdown of Rin. The dude is the new gen Sasuke/Levi Ackerman, but without crazy powers like in Naruto universe and without fighting scary titans like in AOT universe

[@spaciestcross]

I really enjoyed this one, since Bachira is my Favorite character of all Blue Lock, even from the manga, im almost like 10 chapters away to be paired with it, I hope to see more Bachira in a future, even if its near future, or a far way future. Keep the good work and I know, you can achieve the sub goal you mentioned past videos. You are great!

[@LessonsFromAnime]

Same here, probably my second favourite behind Barou. No doubt he will, we've not had BM vs Bachira's team yet right?

[@spaciestcross]

@@LessonsFromAnime we had, it's really interesting the way my boy evolved, into a most mature, accurate and pretty much unstoppable dribbler! Also that evolution about the "monster" was pretty dope

[@maurokoller3910]

3:02 I remember when I was about 8 years old and was mad a friend because he couldnt join the test in sport class because he was always better than me and I really had to push myself to not be left behind but he wasnt there and I was winning and didnt have the drive to push myself further because I was already in the lead. I hadnt understood then that I should challenge myself and not others. Because when you challenge others and win you will never know what you are truly capable of but if you challenge yourself you are never really winning because you may win Tuesday against yourself from Monday but risk loosing to your Tuesday-self on Wednesday and so on. So 'compare yourself to who you were yesterday not to who someone else is today.'

[@Twixtar]

Excellent analysis ! I love your interpretation of the monster, I personally had the same feeling has you. Looking forward for your Nagi analysis ! ☺

[@LessonsFromAnime]

I'll probably do Isagi first, but Nagi will definitely get one!

I already loved Bachira from the first time he popped up on screen, but once I saw his backstory, I straight up bawled my eyes out. It was as if someone displayed my childhood right before me (but instead of soccer, it was music) I feel so much more connected to Bachira as a character now, cause I felt what he had felt on one point. ❤

You just won a subscriber, amazing channel I related a lot with what you Said In this channel, like many people Will do. You will for sure grow! I just have a question i wanted to ask, is if you read about philosophy?

[@LessonsFromAnime]

Cheers bro! I don't tbh, I read/listen to the occasional "self improvement" book but that's about it

[@TheGooseH]

@@LessonsFromAnime That makes sense, you have pretty interesting ideas thats why I thought you probably did read, but lacked some depth. Anyway, I think you Would enjoy learning About philosophy, it seems boring, but I think you Will find it pretty interesting, if you search for the right topics, and maybe give you new insights. But I wish you the best you are certainly on the right path! You Will gain more quality with time so do not worry trust the process. Your channel feel like a breath of new air In the middle of so many KZbin anime essay channels. Keep up the good work bro!!

[@LessonsFromAnime]

I definitely would be interested to, would love some recommendations?

[@TheGooseH]

@LessonsFromAnime Im definetly not the best person to answer this, but i Will try. Sending someone directly to read something like "Platos dialogues" its not the best decision even tho most people recomend to start there I think firstly you should gain interest and have an idea of what there is in phylosophy. Thats why I find some KZbin channels really good to start like pursuit of wonder, philosophy tube,eternalised,Duncan etc. Of course they might have some inaccuracies but thats not the important part, they make you interested and make you think and thats the most important thing. From there on go look for recomendations In places like Reddit on where to Start reading Im sure there is a thread for it but initialy i would recomend you to do your research and gain interest first, there are Many more channels than what did i mention and Many more places. I hope i could help.
