The Problem With Rin Itoshi…

[@capivaraorelhuda5868]

Dunno if this is a hot take or not, but I actually love that Yukimia of all people unlocked predator eye, and that is exactly because he is the one character with crappy vision in the manga. It makes so whenever he's using that power, he is forcing his vision and therefore being actively detrimental towards his health. It adds nice stakes to him going full insano style, kinda like how Chigiri has the danger of his leg hanging over his head.

Rin is the Gojo of Blue Lock. He removes all stakes in future matches. Because anytime Rin does not absolutely dismantle people going forward, it will be bad writing. Rin is too far ahead of any U20 player right now. There's really no way to get out of this hole like Gege did in JJK cuz u can't kill off the inevitable outcome character. Plus if Isagi surpasses Rin in value at the end of this match after this i don't think it'll make sense cuz Rin has been puttin in a massive shift rn.

Absolutely agree. Rin currently is doing everything others can do but far better. He can't get outshined by anyone else in his team individually or else it will be badwriting. His only flaw isn't even that relevant as well. The author put himself in a corner by making rin so OP he can solo teams by himself. It's getting boring and predictable...

[@gahonadm]

the most problematic thing is that people think metavision and predator's eye are smth unique to have so not everyone can have them, when the case is literally not like that, metavision is a skill which is achieved when you've a high IQ and good analytical skills for reading the field, anyone who has these will have metavision, and the Predator's Eye is a skill that allows characters to focus on the goal and goalkeeper to score goals, it's unlocked when a character's vision narrows to resemble a cat's eye or the eye of a predator, it's not a SUPERPOWER or smth, anyone having the requirements for achieving this skill, will have it, and Rin is a perfect candidate for that, I even believe he had metavision before when he used his puppet and calculative playstyle, it's nothing of a surprise, and if you re read the match it makes sense, it's no plot. If you've read his light novel, you'll already know that he definitely is a talented learner and a genius at the same time, also Rin is still evolving, I don't really think he's meant to be called 'plotoshi rin' when he's just BUILT DIFFERENT

[@silversauceran]

You can tell Kaneshiro is doing everything he can to offset the inevitable L coming Rin's way. "Oh but actually he was so strong and genius and did you see he beat Isagi with Kaiser and evolved 64 times he's so amazing he won even though he lost oh did I mention he's genius" type mental gymnastics blah blah blah. Pre-damage damage-control.

[@d3vout719]

Predator Eye- Hyper Fixation: Focus to lodged on a single person, instance, or thing - Reading one thing to the fullest on the field Metavision- Spatial Awareness(not sure how to put it, brain isn't braining): Player takes in as much information about the field as they can, as fast as they can. Focuses on knowing where and how everyone is acting on the field. Your vision is spread around the field and not focused on a single thing - Recognizing the Entire Scheme of the field Predator Eye and Metavision are effectively parallels, the concepts and uses are opposed to each other. Metavision can let a character use their head to make up for weaknesses. Prime example being Isagi who isn't the most physically imposing. Predator Eye as of now has been mainly shown attached to scoring, but the whole concept was intense focus on a single thing. Rin getting Predator Eye honestly fits thematically especially if you look at his Flow state and his tendencies. He always tended to be a one-man army who would systematically and violently defeat his opponents- 1 by 1. Metavisions weakness is obviously the fact that the player when rotating their head leaves an opening, along with it being more scaled towards teamwork Predator eyes weakness is the fact that it is Hyper fixating on one thing which leaves the player with tunnel vision in return for being able to read that sole idea or thing better. It is a more solo weighted ability that focuses on a single players impact as opposed to the collective. It's implied that everyone on the Pro Scene has either or both eyes- the NEL is just the main cast catching up to the Pro Scene. At one point or another everyone is basically going to be using one or both eyes. This is just the players defining themselves and growing. Honestly it fits that the first eye Rin got was Predator Eye and it was due to wanting to dismantle Isagi. The two are set up to be rivals- A more team focuses player, and a lone wolf. It's like we have Noel Noa and Snuffy but with Rin and Isagi- Isagi being Snuffy and Rin being Noel Noa in this scenario. At this point the question isn't why or how but. Who? Which players will get Metavision first and who will get Predator Eye first? Thinking about people like Bachira and Nagi getting either vision is insane, but at some point something to this end will happen. And, beyond this we even have the Target Eye that Charles showed. So that is also a piece to the equation. Overall Metavision and Predator Eye were always set up to oppose each other or to work with one another as they fill in the gaps the other vision makes. As a single player Rin is being made out to be the best in Blue Lock/Japan, but as a team its being made to be Isagi. Two opposing ideals and two opposing players.

[@ladylady3818]

We all know this powerup is for Isagi to evolve again...I mean there is this cycle in which Rin evolves, and Isagi adapts to him BUT nobody is upset with Rin awakening PE bcs he has been using it since 3rd selection, however...Let me ask you something! When was the last time that PE was used on defense or to intercept a pass (chemical reaction)??? Yes, NEVER! Rin literally stopped the strongest chemical reaction and a pass from a Gen New 11 player (MV user and PE) and not just any pass but freaking Kaiser Impact Magnus (which used to be a shot) which has been blocked only by a World 5 player! All I'm saying is that I would NOT have been so upset if this was a regular pass from Kaiser or if Shidou and Rin teamed up to stop Kaiser x Isagi's chemical reaction! This particular plot point is obviously for shock value, nothing else...this is Sakuna treatment all over again! Besides, can we get more screen time for at least Shidou instead of leveling up Rin for the second time????

[@quananh6142]

Rin having predator eyes isn't plot armor or something, I think he should have had both metavision and predator eyes but the author's excution is just terrible so everyone gets mad

[@nothing.1063]

He was using it sub-consciously Like how Niko found out about metavision while using it sub-consciously So saying it's glaze or plot armour is crazy and in blue locks case power ups are foreshadowed or explained. I know we want isagi to be like Goku or ichigo but even himself said rin was still evolving.

@@Am2eRo he didn’t know he was using it the first time around

[@ladylady3818]

Bro, regardless of everything...PE's whole purpose is to score goals and has never been used on defense or to intercept a pass let alone a Kaiser Impact Magnus one, the fastest shot that has been stopped only by a World 5 player (Loki)! This is just another plot point for 'Rin is so special' trobe...in other words, the Sakuna treatment! Sure, Isagi is gonna adapt and evolve again, however...I wished Kaneshiro would've let every character specially Shidou have more screen time and development rather than evolving Rin, Kaiser, and Isagi TWICE in one match.

[@nothing.1063]

@ladylady3818 I think that could be explained by what ace lock said in his vid. But to summarise he said that predators eye can be used to also deny goals like how it can be used to hunt goal keepers and opportunities so it can be used to cancel opportunities which makes sense since barou did it to block the kaiser x isahi shot

[@spec7384]

charles also blocked a kaiser impact, not just loki?

[@Claw27-i6f]

The problem is rin is genuinely getting power up after power and the fact that kaiser( a new gen 11) and isagi need to team up to barely stop him is crazy......

[@jordanbranch3570]

Predator eye is his only power up in the series (He is flow is not a power up) Isagi Got Left Foot Shot, Gun volleyball, Metavision, just in NEL. So Just say he is too good. Which he isn’t Loki is 17 and he is miles better than Rin

[@nothing.1063]

What I think for the next chapter for isagi he can't beat rin alone even with kaiser so what I think would happen for isagi is he would become more like akashi seijiro from kuroko no basket. He would basically have so insane awareness so much so he sees the future and with his white hair state he could get a passive custom to him alone,the ability to increase compatibility and potential/best performance of those around to a further level like everyone on the field is in a semi flow state but to show their under isagi's control is they would have puzzle piece eyes instead and he would ofc make them as his slaves for his own goal. This could be perfect for the U20 match and maybe this game but what do you all think of it.

[@siya2195]

3 goal rule really limits the dynamic of the games and i even remember back when the U20 game was going weekly after shidou's 2nd goal nobody knew what would happen and Ego saying that blue lock had already succeeded i thought the match was gonna be a draw with isagi maing it 3-3. You can't have that situation in the NEL

[@nothing.1063]

I think it was implemented by ego to see if you could score in limited situations which is pretty good training for the blue locks as they could score better while defend those opportunities better too

[@TheWillyWanka]

I hate that people throw plot armor around so much. Rin is literally the rival to isagi and the little brother of sae he whom didn't even sweat during the u-20 match. Multiple people has meta vision and multiple people now has predator eye everyone can get a buff but rin and we'll be happy?

[@cellzzzz]

chat the only problem with rin getting predator eye is because he got it from a defensive play. and like you explained in the beginning, it’s about finding the weakness in the goal to be able to score more goals. like if he got it from scoring itd make sense but defending isagi and kaisers play does not seem like a valid reason for predator eye

[@jude7620]

You don't think maybe knowing the best shot course to get a shot off could help identify the most dangerous shot course on the field and stop it?

[@cellzzzz]

@ that’s actually a really good point but it was a pass that he intercepted rather than a shot, what you said would make sense if he blocked isagi shot after kaisers pass

[@thegamingkeyblade7066]

Predator is more just focusing on one specific thing completely, and by focusing on isagi he unlocked it which probably makes more sense than if he did on the goal since he cares more about isagi than actually scoring.

[@عليمخمد-د9د]

Fans don't have a problem with Isagi gaining the Metavision just from seeing Kaiser move his eyes, but they have a problem because Rin gained the Predator's Eye so quickly???

i think isagi should awaken predator eye also because his strength is his brain and as predator eye is a mentality and even talented learners like kaiser can do it so isagi should to. it can also maybe elevate his dribbling in one vs ones

[@arsenemonkam2296]

bruh ill have you know that isagi cant use predator eye because the requirement for it is for 'true strikers' ( and yes isagi is imo not a striker but more of a CAM or CF but anyways) and the main reason being that it only works for players that have a unique shooting ability **that doesnt require a lot of thinking to pull off** which is where isagi falls from as he needs to analyze every possibility of his shot going in unlike kaiser barou or rin who dont require as much thinking to shoot

[@Julyinterest]

I would say even if isagi get pred eye now it wouldn’t matter. The best he can get rn is something like a better shot or a god like trap the uses direct shot as a a fake or something. (Yes I know that’s basically two gun volley)

[@imsenpachi1304]

@arsenemonkam2296I completely diagree, Kaiser uses predator eye for openings not to analyze a GK or players. Most of kaisers goals were predator eye shots and a good chunk of them were volleys. Isagi can get predator eye and he is a true striker.

[@thegamingkeyblade7066]

Isagi getting predator eye would be funny, but wouldn't make sense. He just isn't a player that would benefit from it. He doesn't have a kick so fast that he can use the tinest opening. His defense is much better than if he used predator eye for it anyway and I'm pretty sure it'd work against his adaptiveness. I don't want to say it'd be completely wrong to think he'd get it but right now it is. Maybe if there is a year long time skip for isagi to develop a barou level shooting he could use it, but right now? No.

People think metavision and predator eyes are like sharingan and rinnegan. Both are different ways to use your eyes, in metavision your eyes is gathering the max amount of information to read the entire field in order to predict and plan plays, meanwhile predator eyes is the hyper fixation in one thing specific. They're not superpowers. We could say individual-type players can reach predator eyes easier and world-type can reach metavision easier.

[@brodymargela1629]

Bro the problem isn't the fact that he has the ability its just that he is just too perfect the author was so afraid to back Rin into a corner without the reasoning be he is just that special Rin alone is equal to Kaiser and Isagi which shouldn't be the case he can already solo an entire solo an entire team what more does he need ?

[@Julyinterest]

I wouldn’t say he’s equal to both. honestly I almost certain that the writer is trying to show that he can’t keep up with both of them. Instead he focus on one and destroy anything that comes near making basically a one on one though I do agree that he seems a little to perfect at everything. That’s why I would have preferred that the writer made it that rin used his puppeteer ego as a place holder for his ego until he gets the ball or gets in a place to score.

He always had predator eyes (a weaker version) same way isagi used to activate meta vision from time to time unconsciously but now he has full control over it and an even better version of it . also remember that his flow state is all about causing the opponent to use their weapon so he can use it against them ,his flow state goes perfectly with predator eyes bcz it now allows him to focus hundred percent on his opponent or the ball and can now stop a play that was literally just produced seconds ago by using that 100% focus and by using their new found play against them (stop isagi while the others press kaiser causing him to do an impossible play that he read using pred eyes and take the ball from them)

I mean in a game of football, you learn a lot of things in the heat of the match. I play regularly and adapting and using skills that other players have is very common. Meta vision is just game sense. As a play gathers more experience it develops on its own. In fact you are not a good player if you don't have game sense/meta vision. So in the end it's just comes down to who can utilise it better, the same skill everyone has. Power scales in BL is one of the best in my opinion as I see it though my own experiences dealing with players on the field.

The unfairness of a genius growing out of nowhere is highlighted here. Where Kaiser and Isagi have to compromise, learn and adapt to reach greater heights, Rin just has to want and he is given. I still think he needs a therapist more than he needs football, but until he resolves his issue with his brother he wont be dropping out of relevancy anytime soon. Like Sasuke was basically untouchable in Shippuden. My theory is still that the genius that broke Sae is Rin, when they were apart Sae learned he wasnt a genius and realized all the qualities he wanted to be the best was in Rin. So when Sae offered to be the best midfielder for Rin and was refused he just shut him down.

I can't argue the power scaling getting pretty difficult in this game alone, but personally my "hot take" I guess is I trust the author. He's shown us such cool sports psychology all by character stories he's shown us. So I bet he's cooking, just as he always has been

[@tobiasbailey4867]

Idc about him unlocking predator eye, tbh i thought he already had it, its just that he is too op, to the point where hes far and away better than isagi and kaiser working together, 2 new gen lvl players working together and rin is just outclassing them by so much. At this point it will feel like plot armour that isagi even wins since even working with kaiser he is still getting smoked. How is Isagi supposed to “beat” rin if he cant even win with anorher new gen lvl player. With all rin has done this match if he is below isagi in the rankings it wont make any sense, but it seems like isagi is going to win the nel to be captain of the u20 like he foreshadowed back at the wnd of the u20 game, but it wont feel justified since rin is like a tier above isagi and even kaiser rn

Who do you think will be the better striker and who'll be the better player based on FULL POTENTIAL between Rin and my boy Isagi😉👍🏻

[@thehopelessartist8983]

These visions are the traits of a striker...they are all strikers...what did you expect

[@sev9258]

Imma need Bachira to gain some sort of eye ability+better on goal finishing or somethin in the next arc.

[@CorbinKettledas-b7u]

Yo extendo in your opinion who do you think will be the better striker and who'll be the better player at their Prime between my boy Isagi and Rin🔥👍🏻

[@Extendo-]

isagi

[@CorbinKettledas-b7u]

@@Extendo- 👍🏻 I use to think that isagi will end up as the better player and Rin the striker but I think it's the other way around because I don't see Isagi being a better crosser passer or free kicker than Rin Rin is probably going to be more complete🥲🔥

[@nothing.1063]

I think isagi might be the best player overall like snuffy. While rin just becomes the best striker.

[@Daddy9000-i3o]

I couldn’t care less about predator eye but for him to stop a kaiser impact, that’s what lowkey got on my nerves

[@parallax4475]

Ubers match was 30 EPs long This one is 40 EPS Which kinda makes sense as this is the finalé of NEL

[@MR._.H0L10Ŵz]

Rin basically alr had predator eye for the past 200 chapters 😂😂

[@daylight_gfg]

i dont think rin has anymore plot armour than isagis other rivals atp the thing that makes me mad is ppl calling these forms of vision abilities when they really aren't. metavision is literally just keeping your head on a swivel and watching your peripherals. pretator eyes is just hunting for the best possible time to shoot. abilities are things like nagis crazy trapping, rins berserker mode, bachiras dribbling. (imo)

[@NotTheWheel]

Most people complaining about it are talking about how it extends the match that much longer. After about 5 chapters where it seemed like things were closing out. btw ask for the U-20 world cup of course we'll have crazy matches ahead... but like in the group stages I'd like at least one match where Blue Lock Japan absolutely smashes their first opponent. I don't want the Philipines National team to be showing up with Omega Meta Predator vision in one eye and a Rinnegan in the other. While some teams will be great not every team in the world should be as good as the boys are right now.

[@Mr.Comraded-D]

ICL, PLEASE END THE MATCH IN 2 CHAPTERS PLEASE BROTHER. I'M TIRED OF THIS BACK AND FORTH. I'LL BE 60 YEARS OLD BY THE TIME THIS CHAPTER RELEASES FR. PLEEAAASE BROTHER THIS IS WORSE THAN THE UBERS MATCH CAUSE THIS IS SOOO DAMN LONG( PAUSE) BUT YOU GET THE POINT.

[@theodorech20]

Rin would be the best player in the world, surpassing Noel Noa, at the cost of having personality disorder or something.

[@dumflame]

I feel like they made destroyer Rin too powerful He solo’s Club level (U-20 teams yes) teams 1. How are we supposed to feel threatened in the next arc when the players are basically the same level 2. How is Isagi gonna compete against Rin individually. Like I don’t see how Isagi’s beating Rin I’m open to any explanations to my problems (Rin having PE makes 100% sense)

[@CorbinKettledas-b7u]

Yo extendo here's another spicy question for you who would be the better player in their prime with nothing holding them back and no restrictions Reo with his physicals versatility and Metavision mastered plus using the chameleon properly(having copied a ton of moves for each position😂🔥) or Nagi(with his true monster ego talent and creativity unlocked+a work ethic and his ball control and trapping fully mastered) Give me proper reasons for your pick😎

[@fadhilriezthia7921]

I just feel like more development from rin can come when the u20 world cup. Because if rin developed any further i fear author will not develop rin in u20 world cup becauss everything is already developed.

[@chris-p9x]

In my opinion if another player gets another mother fucking power up it legits makes the 9 month natch even longer first usagi then charles then karasu and then yukimiya and kinda rin its beyond unbearable to keep going back and fourt without a guarrante of this match coming to a close

[@iBlizzy]

Imo i dont mind rin getting it,there is foreshadowing throughout but the way how he got it bugs me.Out of nowhere rin stop a completely new design from kaisagi and used PE in a different way specifically the complete opposite way it was introduce to us FIRST TRY.Ik predator is focusing ur vision on 1 detail but comon.Also rin alrdy has the strongest flow in the series,hes so strong that he needs isagi and kaiser(tbf they strikers not defenders) to stop him.Like when isagi beats rin and become No.1,how is that gonna be satisfying?Can u say with a straight face that isagi finally better than rin,idk i feel like it will still be iffy but thats just me ig,anyway its cool that he got i just dont fully mess with how he got it like bro literally stop a top 10 play,think for a second a freaking kaiser impact magnus pass into a two gun volley,just let that settle in and then realise that rin stop that first try,doesn't it bug u abit?

[@GrimSensei-z4p]

Itoshi rin character development is amazing idc sounds like to me blue lock fans are mad that rin is the best Individual player in blue lock 😂😂 he's 2 maning kaiser and isagi I honestly want rin to win tbh but I know isagi will score

[@richboi6685]

This isn’t plot but people NEED to stop saying Isagi and Kaiser equals one itoshi Rin like individually Rin is the most talented INDIVIDUALLY in BL been that but if you can’t stop someone 1v1 that just shows Rin’s skill but being a more skilled or talented player doesn’t make them a better player like take 2nd selection Barou and Nagi. Nagi was the more talented player but Barou was a better player but imma be honest in the second selection Nagi was hard carried by Reo and Zantetsu like put Isagi or even Bachira on Barou’s team Nagi lose in the 2nd selection(don’t @ me)

[@Immanuelm.8]

I kinda don't mind it. The more Blue Lock the better😗😭

[@parallax4475]

I think every international player has meta vision irl Some are better users than others like messi or some of the passers Predator eye idk wtf that is irl Sure there R goals when people hide from the goal keeper but that's the majority of the corner goals

[@Sasuk1ri]

amour has to be comment bait

[@rajveermachhan]

well doesn't isagi evolve from buns to goat why can't rin improve ?

[@neko_hyp813]

it'll be a draw watch

[@ShinyGhoul-e9q]

New gen is cooked, Kaiser already worse than Rin overall, and in U-20 world cup Idk what power up Kaiser need to surpass Rin BC in U-20 WC with current power Kaiser needs to dream even for bench not for starter eleven , Idk if we gonna get Italy VS Japan match, but if we gunna see it happens maybe Lorenzo will be holding Rin and Italy will have a small chance to not be trashed jus I'm gonna Say now only Loki is better in U-20 category than Rin, maybe we can see new NG11 who surpasses Rin level, for Charles and Sae idk they don't had much screen time.
