one of my favorite things abt igaguri's character that i realized a while ago is that even tho in the start he said his weapon was his relentless spirit, he really meant that as in he will keep fighting as hard as he can in the only way's he knows how. honestly thats true ego in my opinion, using whatever you can to stay in the game and never giving up no matter who you're up against.

[@suzelsmanga]

Goddamn, bro's editing is so much better compared to the videos I only podcasted. In all seriousness though, this is such a great analysis! I hadn't at all considered how Igaguri is actually embodying Ego's teachings before but you're completely right imo. Same with the way you looked at the dynamic between Igaguri and Reo, you really gave those scenes from the second selection a new perspective for me!

[@warkdargon8337]

Youve got an immensely interesting bluelock video playlist my friend. They've helped me in many ways and i cant wait for the anime to catch up to the manga so i can see even more from you! Also the Season 2 overview video will be interesting too whenever season 2 finishes! Keep inspiring brother 💪

[@idkbcidk8228]

Okay “just an assist” is crazy when he destroyed Uber’s defense multiple times with his dribbling, the team that specialized in defense. But yeah, it was lower because he missed a shot so Igaguri is fs going to get an offer, I’m kinda curious what’s gonna happen to the Author’s wonder boy.

[@markt1639]

The description of fairness and sportsmanship is important and I never seen him as a bad/cheating guy. His spirit and his later skill are risky, no cheating. And the Reo-part is true. I like him as a player and his playstyle, but as a character, he is not great:Hanging on Nagi all the time and his motivation a lot of times is Nagi, being at this level in very short time, pretty privilege…He is not the worst person, though I‘m surprised he is not much lower in my estimation.

Fantastic video! I was one of those viewers who wasn’t fond of him at all. However, after watching this video, I’ve realized that I too have been in situations where I had to be creative and think outside the box to compensate for my perceived or genuine lack of skills. I’ve worked alongside talented and knowledgeable individuals and stood out because I’ve taken a different approach than my peers to compensate for such gaps.

[@maxkrepps9474]

I would have guessed that he would discover something huge during a match

[@millionpassions227]

I'd say that his desire the not return back to the temple is not an ego to become better and better consistently in blue lock. Afterall, each and every player strives to be the best. However, Igaguri motivation is more self centred which is ok but it makes try more to survive in blue lock rather than thrive. There are many other carriers he could choose to get out of his temple and it just so happens that football is one of them. Maybe the writer tried to display that you need to strive to become the best if you want to survive in blue lock.

Great video even though Igaguri is a gag character I don't think the author would just leave him in for fun. I like your theory is real good keep it up.

[@tefyrapela2714]

Halfway trough the vid and it's a banger ! Wanted to add my piece about fairness / cheating : I was fairly competitive in my younger years, mainly football in highschool and fighting games afterwards 1. in football, something like earning a foul, "playing dirty", are definitely skills. By the end of the day, what you need is winning, so if leaving your right foot hanging sometimes when you enter the box can be the difference between a win and a lose, trust me you will do it. Same for tactical fouls. Is it dirty ? yes, definitely. But unless you get a redcard, everything stays inside the boundaries of the rules, so by definition it's "fair" 2. in fighting games, you obviously look for what you opponnent hates the most and don't know how to deal with, and you DO that. But it get's crazier, as if you're in tournament and play side by side, depending on your opponent's controler you can hear his inputs (wether you want it or not). And players have been abusing this for the longest time. This comes very very close to cheating, BUT both of you can hear it so, wether you want to use it at your advantage is up to you. Your opponent definitely will. Those examples do come close to selling your soul for victory.

[@7XADay]

Igaguri was one of the characters that I can genuinely relate to he was a great character to me no matter what people think I find myself wanting to be a little like igaguri still having the drive despite seeing the big difference still trying even if he is so far behind which is why he might not be a good football player but he is a great character.

[@bazookaward3859]

He is one of the only humans is a sea of monsters. I think he will get onto the finally selection. My guy still needs to do an offensive foul to earn a Free kick for a goal. 😅😅

At the Match against team v igarashi remember me to ishisaki of capitan Tsubasa, a player that start as a forward that converted into a defender, the kind of player i always defend, the one that doesnt have the ability to be the best, but have the mentality to play with the best and be a relatable player saving many goals oportunity to his team

[@idkbcidk8228]

“He embodies Ego’s words perfectly” but just like Yukimiya he was way over his head, which is just being reckless. Lowk I don’t even think Ego respects Igaguri as a striker 💀. But ig he’s a defender. Oh just remembered what else I disliked, after his talk with Isagi in the NEL I felt so annoyed because he was like “I need help” and then didn’t take ANY training advice, he’s just going with his ego, not actually trying to physically improve or technically improve. I was a bit disappointed, ig you can see that as respectful tho, just imo.

[@Yumispear]

Ofc Igaguri is going to get an offering he’s literally luckiest player (Amen 🙏)

[@xlegacyzero8878]

He's obviously not getting an offer; otherwise, an entire section of the manga wouldn't have been dedicated to him realizing he failed. If he gets an offer, readers will feel cheated that all that emotional buildup was for nothing, and the chapter could have had more action in it. I can't say I liked igaguri in the worlds of a drunk grandpa, "You act like prey but you're a predator. You use pity to lure in your victims. It's how you survive." This guy has been carried by isagi's potential, then shidou's raw talent and now by the best team in the NEL. Best to get him out of here before readers start hating him.

I understand why you like him and im not going to say you should see it how i see it. But i still can’t wait for him to get kicked out of blue lock. His uselessness for me is so big that him continuing for this long is almost like he’s being rewarded for bad behavior. If he had something a little more valid in terms of purpose within the story or maybe a slightly less bs weapon, then it wouldn’t be that bad. Cause then its like “he’s bad but he has spunk” but his ability to draw fouls id not just useless but looks like all he does is cheese the game in order to survive. If igaguri had narohia’s weapon for example which is far more useful than what this bald ass monk has, then i don’t believe he’d be as disliked as he is. Its like seeing IshowSpeed being taken as a serious sprinter in the Olympics given the info we know. To me to like him, he’ll need a little more than a cheese weapon and heart. Something even remotely useful, cause other than that, he just seems like an explicit waist of space and pencil.
