The moment Barou Shoei re-lit my spark (Blue Lock - Barou's Awakening)

In episode 18 of Blue Lock, Barou finally awakens, pushing his self-pity/doubt to one side and once again becoming "The King".
Barou finally gives in and passes to Isagi at the start of the episode, which leads him spirally down into crisis, after seeing the crossroads he was at, the desperation to avoid that future kicked in, and Barou Awakens, scoring a phenomenal goal.
Honestly I never know what to write in these descriptions lmao I just waffle to fit in as many keywords as possible, hope you all enjoy though!

I ended up unconsciously obsessed with this scene, repeating it time and time. It reminded me to much of myself.

[@neetfreek9921]

This thought process isn't sustainable though. The truth is that the majority of people get disqualified and forgotten, seen as nothing more than collateral damage. The show doesn't teach how to cope with defeat, only to keep pushing yourself until someone quite litterally breaks you. It isn't healthy, and i wouldn't recomend this show as inspiration for anyone. It is the american dream reformated into sports, where the 1% stand atop the forgotten 99%. And the 99% are taught to sabotage each other to validate their existance rather than living for the moment. Naratives are increadibly contagious for the aimless, and ultimatly I find it irresponsible. Especially when your target audience is highschoolers.

[@neetfreek9921]

@@atilla9684 Sure ego is healthy in small doses, but this show does not show how to balance out ego. It doesn’t even teach that there are negatives to ego, it only praises it nonstop. The mc is 100% going to end up alone at the top and have to restructure how they live entirely. So are all the people who follow this show’s philosophy all the way through. Also, just cuz something provides inspiration doesn’t mean it’s healthy. You can just look to the red pill for how easy it is to mind fck people through self help. But ya, agree to disagree I guess.

[@schris3]

Barou's awakening is extremely inspiring because he didn't just have the mental strength to record the defeat in his soul, but also the willpower to truly do something about it.

[@prhet199]

This made me realize. Often in school and now in university i often wait for someone else to answer before me, give the test papers after someone. Which is literally “passing to supreme strikers” and letting better people take ahead instead of being better

I like the way you think. I'll also stop passing to the supreme striker and I will be the supreme striker myself. Thank you mate for this beautiful gift.

[@HazeyInsanity]

Barou will always be my favourite sports anime character. This scene alone made me rethink my whole life. Me who my whole life was on top (had the best grades, had a six pack,had friends,did sports, actually had an ego) stopped caring about all those things and settled for mediocrity because It was the easy road to take. Now I'm a broken man with shit grades, a fat decaying body and social anxiety who does not leave his house and has a terrible sleep schedule. This scene made see what truly lies ahead, if I don't change and strive to be the best version of me, i'll will end up living a a full life of regret with forsaken dreams and goals. I never though a single anime scene from a sports anime could make me rethink my whole life. I think Blue lock legit saved my life, I have now started eating healthy, going to the gym, sleeping well and studying more. I can't afford to loose my motivation ever again that I know what awaits me if I do. Thank you Blue Lock

You got this man, if you did it before you can do it again 💪

[@ulxsyxd]

Bro I relate to you on a spiritual level. I'm also a broken man now. Being the best without trying and being rewarded while not putting in any effort fucks you up as you grow up. I used to hate football until reading blue lock not because I geniunely despised the sport itself but because it was one of the things I was truly terrible and couldn't get better at and I was constantly bullied physically and verbally for it because my "friends" needed revenge for the things I surpassed them in. After catching up with the manga now I sit down with my dad and watch matches every week. I also want to buy a high quality football as soon as I get some money and I'm gonna hit the gym too. I'll probably only play football alone until I'm comfortable enough to play with other people but I played basketball for 8 years starting with almost no natural talent so who says I can't learn football too? I don't know if you'd be comfortable with it but I'd like to talk about our progress from time to time because even if we're not in the same boat, the boats sure look similar.

If there is anything i've learned from constantly losing in games it's that you have to admit you lost. I know a lot of people who'll refuse to admit they lost and begin using excuses like "I wasn't that serious" or "That was just lucky", but those excuses doesn't matter, you still lost. I have a story here of how me and my friend took defeat. Chess has recently gotten popular in my class. All the guys are playing it and me and my friend took two games. One was a 5 minute and one was a 10 minute. Now the 5 minute one i lost, not because i was put in checkmate but because the timer ran out for me. At first i thought it was a bit cheap but then the guy starts getting a little cocky, and that made me think he didn't deserve that win because he relied on time, there was "zero skill" invovled. I challenge him again to a 10 minute game and while he was going good at first, i completely turned the tables on him and checkmated him. At that time i was still salty and his friends teased him for losing to me. He said "I wasn't serious" and that he would have beaten me if he was, to which i said "Who of us won by running time out and who won by checkmating the other. I now realize that while that loss was annoying, no one knows what would have happend if we could have kept playing. I was just using the excuse that if time was longer i would have won, i was ultimately just denying the fact that i lost. If you accept defeat, then use that frustration as a motivator to beat them next time.

The biggest difference between Barou and Isagi is mentality and mental journey. When the pressure is off him he feels relieved. When the pressure is on, he can get quite stressed, but doesn't show it. He tries to keep calm. Isagi *relishes* the stress. The struggle. The internal fight. Thats what drives him. The *pain* is what makes Isagi more powerful. When hes at his worst, is when he starts to grow best. And he knows that. *"I need you to shut up, genius. I'm about to get to the good part."* - Yoichi Isagi, on the verge of defeat.

Honestly Barou is probably the most realistic character, I want that have that kind of ego, I was so close to it, pure untouched rage and drive to do things, getting things done until I finally astray away from the way. Small holes in discipline is where the snakes slither in, UNRELENTING SELF ACCOUNTABILITY MUST BE PUT IN SYSTEM

[@jaydencarnahan3412]

I know exactly how you feel. It took me years of working on myself. I had the drive to be better, the hunger to be the best, and the discipline to stay on track. What I lacked was that unwavering confidence and a true sense of self identity. Barou was an inspiration that helped me discover my ego. I was there and I felt unstoppable. I knew what I wanted, who I was, and what I valued. And I finally felt like I truly did not care what people thought about me. The feeling is like no other. Its impossible to explain to somebody who hasn't felt it before. Not even 2 weeks later I got injured. It completely changed my life around. I lost my job, I lost my ability to workout, and to do martial arts. I'm 4 months into recovery and my mindset has regressed. The hardest battle isnt the physical, its the mental. I'm fighting to hang on to who I was rather than falling into comfort, weakness, and lack of discipline. I only scratched the surface of what I could achieve with that mindset. I will get it back. Discipline is difficult at first but becomes easier over time. The feeling is worth it so dont stop chasing it. Crush the voice in your head thats weak, tired, and scared. Listen to your ego. Be the person you want to be and dont let anyone or anything get in your way

This scene awoke something in me, a self hatred that I'd been ignoring for the past 5 years. If not ignoring then just total ignorance of, my genuine dream is to become a champion mma fight and I have faith in that. However, excuse after excuse I'd take two steps towards the goal and then I'd step back. I'm big and I've been told I'm talented, I'm blessed with abilities that most dont (I cringe saying that, but my ego believes what my Father and friends say) and yet I've been so damn lazy. From now on, in order to make sure my dreams become a reality, I will not stop moving foward. My eyes feel awake, and my mind knows what it wants. I refuse to live in any other future and remain a loser . I am the king, now watch me

[@HBFaith]

When I watched the scene where barou is watching the future of others people’s success on tv in sadness, I related so much, watching my friends live the life I wanted to achieve in Fighting Game tournaments. I wanted to make it to top 8 , I wanted to be stronger or even more the strongest. Drowning in pools killed my confidence as I questioned wether if competing in tournaments was cut out for me or not. Watching my character get read left and right or getting “ DEVOURED “ hurt like hell. After realizing this was my only shot and instead of making excuses a loser would make like “ guess I wasn’t strong enough “ , “ oh well I came for the experience “ , “ at least I had fun “ “ that character is just broken “ “ my character is too weak “ I accepted the fact that I did not want to live that life, I did not want to allow myself to lose, I did not want to have to live with Losing. I’m not going to let anyone get in my way of making it to the top of the hill. I’m going to make sure I’m the only King On it. I’ll devour everyone NO MATTER WHAT!

[@LessonsFromAnime]

That scene honestly haunts me, I fell off going to the gym for the last couple months, I'd still be going but not as intense and not really following the diet, the other day I rewatched that scene and now it plays in my mind whenever I feel like half assing a workout or skipping a set. Hope it all works out for you bro

Pain, discomfort, and discipline help us grow. I've also rewired my brain this year to welcome these ideas into my brain. They're necessary and funny enough, it makes those moments of joy feel truly joyous. You can take that one day off and it is truly satisfying. I feel so much more alive than I ever have because I subject myself to the gym, side hustles, cold showers, etc. Would I rather stay in bed, cuddle with my fiance and dogs? Of course, but that's not gonna change my life and help me reach my goals. Love these videos man and I love Bluelock. I'll play the soundtrack nonstop at the gym 😂

You make a great point here. Super underrated moment. The flashforward is in fact literally me. I was so into sports and would consistently tell myself i wont settle for a normal life. Excuse after excuse suddenly high school was over and i hadnt even played on 1 team. I tried out for College football and halfway through the second try out i told myself i wouldnt be picked and went home. After a cocah had made a comment about "if you didnt play in high school youre wasting your time." When i was clearly the second best person trying out for my position. A little bit nore training before rhe try out and i would've easily stood out. Now im almost 30 and im a regular person. Living a normal life and it eats me up everyday.

I'd made the choice to be a couch potato for years (since covid hit). I stopped playing soccer even before that I started pursuing Cybersecurity which is good and fine. But internally kept making excuses that I don't have time because being at the computer takes up so much of my daily life now. However, I and my friends watched these episodes over this last weekend. Just as the beginning of this video says, I saw myself in what Barou was feeling here. Seeing him be able to persevere despite the mental setback/revision he had to go through in this scene was honestly eye opening, inspiring, and motivating for someone like myself. Today I am proud to say that I didn't fall into the "I'll do it tomorrow" mindset of getting out of the house during my break and going to the pitch. I am still feeling the burn of getting out on the field and having practiced techniques and shots and I am honestly feeling great. I agree that blue lock reignited my spark and I believe it has for many others aswell. I may be 20 now. But, I hope to be able to get back into the scene of competition and regain the body and drive that I had long ago. All of this thanks to Blue Lock. (and honestly Aoashi aswell but King Barou is what won me over).

Love the content! I'd love to watch anime with you , I feel like I'm the only one that likes to really psychoanalyze characters and situations in anime

Thank you

No problem 👍

Barou's development was the best one I've seen. In order for the man to see reason and see himself, he had to be *BITCHED* to the ground by Isagi. Isagi manipulated Barou but in a good way that made him free from his shackles. A spectacular moment indeed. 👏

W video I forgot the meaning of this scene and character and holy shit I also need to get grinding once more but good luck on the journey to 50k I recommend you step up the thumbnails to improve the ctr and use tags and # for more reach to grow even further

[@LessonsFromAnime]

Yeah the thumbnails are defo the weak spot of the channel atm, planning to redo them all at some point

[@muazadam983]

ngl there are moments where i set a goal for myself and then my mind goes to do less of the intended goal cuz it ends up getting tough. but when i do tough it out my god does it feel good to blast through something

[@LessonsFromAnime]

Yeah it definitely does
