Blue Lock?
Added 2023-10-17 16:01:18 +0000 UTCWho’d be interested in seeing our reactions to Blue Lock?? Even though we’re currently watching another Sports anime in Haikyuu. Just trying to gauge some community feedback!!

I care about other anime much more

2024-08-30 17:17:36 +0000 UTCBlue lock is not my Cup of tea

2024-08-10 18:13:58 +0000 UTCPlease
Icy_WIllow
2024-05-31 17:14:59 +0000 UTCYes please!!
Angelica
2024-02-18 11:00:13 +0000 UTCprobably finish Haikyuu first because Blue Lock is vastly different in writing and approach to sports. it's more flashy shounen than a sports anime imo, something to keep in mind in case you start Blue Lock expecting a Haikyuu type of story (that was a mistake of mine for sure 😅)
apothecary maomao
2024-02-15 17:19:03 +0000 UTCYes please! Blue Lock or Kuroko no Basket would be really nice.
xSerry
2024-02-14 22:27:38 +0000 UTCBlue lock sounds great but if I may say Kuroko no Basket is pretty solid too. Done by the same production company as Haikyuu
Cyrus Gaperi
2024-02-13 22:42:44 +0000 UTCBLUE LOCK RULESS
Alpy
2024-02-07 06:58:17 +0000 UTCYes let’s go !!!
Maryam186
2024-02-07 01:20:15 +0000 UTCYes please
Nashop
2024-01-27 17:16:09 +0000 UTCIf y’all want great story telling, I’d say Hajime No Ippo. If you want goofy and funny—Eyeshield 21 and Slam Dunk. If you want flashy and hype—Kuroko’s Basket and Blue Lock.

2024-01-26 08:16:40 +0000 UTCFor K-Drama can you guys do Vincenzo next?!
Md Sheam Bin Sayhid
2024-01-26 06:34:40 +0000 UTCIf you just want to have fun, you should check out One Outs.
Angelo
2024-01-23 22:29:45 +0000 UTCblue lock is just as hype
Duckl
2024-01-13 20:08:35 +0000 UTCI really enjoyed Blue Lock as I play soccer and it's interesting. Nothing can touch Haikyuu, but learning the different skills that each player brings to the game is a LOT of fun.
Jonathan Soronen
2024-01-06 23:27:34 +0000 UTCBlue Lock is a lot more shonen then Haikyuu (more emphasis on the wow flash bang of it all) which is great if you like that kind of show. 'Run With the Wind' is one of my favourites next to Haikyuu because of how well the character development is written - but because the show is about long-distance running, people don't find it as exciting to watch. I would still highly recommend it even if you decide to just watch it in your own time :) love from QLD.
Bobby Hanson
2024-01-03 09:19:24 +0000 UTCIt was a very enjoyable and hype, its definitely a show that people would enjoy watching a reaction of. Maybe wait until the next season (confirmed, date unknown) (i'm a giant fan of haikyuu aswell)
Valandril
2023-12-30 00:04:00 +0000 UTCI am biased towards haikyuu cuz I'm a volleyball player and I can personally relate to pretty much everything in the show, but I definitely agree with you, in terms of hype and competitiveness, I'd say Blue Lock is top tier.
hugolima05
2023-12-25 00:55:53 +0000 UTCYES OMG! Such a fire show, knowing how much you guys are enjoying haikyuu, I'm very confident you guys will love it as well. It approaches team sports in a totally different POV from haikyuu, but it's sooo good.
hugolima05
2023-12-25 00:42:46 +0000 UTCblue lock for the win
astral_
2023-12-22 06:32:33 +0000 UTCIf it's football series then Ao Ashi is the best imo
slahser
2023-12-22 03:17:43 +0000 UTCplease do!
bee
2023-12-20 22:41:27 +0000 UTCthat would be so cool !
Maximilien Leymonerie
2023-12-15 14:14:49 +0000 UTCWait a little longer, Season 2 is in development, so it can be more bearable the waiting and a longer reaction serie.
Manuel Eduardo Diaz Cabrera
2023-12-12 14:34:58 +0000 UTCIt’s a slower burn but I think that Ace no Diamond is soo underrated!!
David S
2023-12-11 06:47:53 +0000 UTCI personally find that Blue lock is way less well written than Haikyuu. It’s also hype but more in a OMG it’s so edgy and cool than real character work and theme exploration. So I would rather see something else
David S
2023-12-11 06:45:18 +0000 UTCI would recommend kuruko no basket
Ebrahim
2023-12-09 01:01:39 +0000 UTCwould love that! very exciting show
bubbaburto
2023-12-08 00:46:59 +0000 UTCYEAH!
prinze15
2023-12-05 18:30:57 +0000 UTCYes please!
Mikaela
2023-11-29 17:44:59 +0000 UTCMore interesting than Haikyu IMO
KnightOfCarim
2023-11-21 18:22:27 +0000 UTCNot sure if it was already commented here, but I've read somewhere that ISAYAMA HIMSELF recommended Blue Lock. I haven't watched it yet, so it's a good first time for me as well if you're going to next this after Haikyu!!
Raymund Angelo Robles
2023-11-21 10:46:23 +0000 UTCWould love to watch your reaction to RWBY too! music and fights are so good
Tenzin Dikyikhangsar
2023-11-17 05:16:46 +0000 UTCYou should wait though, Ange’s heart is going to explode if you watch blue lock and haikyuu at the same time.
Pranaw Bajracharya
2023-11-15 20:28:15 +0000 UTCAbsolutely! One of the best animes out there
Shobith Bandaru
2023-11-04 00:40:59 +0000 UTCIf Ange gets crazy over Haikyuu he will love Blue Lock.
Kriss
2023-10-29 20:13:26 +0000 UTCTotally Agree with you!
DRACO
2023-10-27 04:36:52 +0000 UTCBlue Lock is a good anime - I would watch. My personal favorite sports anime is Chihayafuru - greatly underrated. But I understand it doesn't have the viewership for a reaction series.
K Cianci
2023-10-26 00:51:01 +0000 UTCNo one thinks u can do it without teamwork, because even BlueLock, in a very roundabout way, shows you absolutely need teamwork to win. I was just talking about the mentality that the best players in the world have, and how BL tries to replicate it
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-25 06:04:16 +0000 UTCBluelock was created to be a critique of the Japanese mindset in sports after their elimination in the 2018 WC. I agree that the football element is very exaggerated but if u only look at it through that lens and not the one it was created for, then you’re selling yourself short.
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-25 06:00:37 +0000 UTCblue lock is amazing, definitely recommend reacting to it, but warning you guys that we don't know when season 2 will come!
Aman Gupta
2023-10-25 01:30:08 +0000 UTCBro, Blue Lock was the TOP 1 new anime of past year. I personally like it more than Haikyuu. No anime had me hyped chapter after chapter since AOT. It's intense as hell and VERY competitive.
SeiferJaeger
2023-10-23 21:23:50 +0000 UTCDefinitely watch blue lock please
Ty
2023-10-22 05:04:54 +0000 UTCYes please!
Siba Zitumane
2023-10-21 19:42:28 +0000 UTCSomeone down below mentioned Baby Steps which I had completely forgotten about, but that is another top-tier sports anime. Maybe above both Hinomaru Sumo and Yuri on Ice tbh. I just forget about it because it deserved another season. @beannieswife Yes I think of all of these Your Lie in April might have the most "reactable" moments if they made it all the way through.
Khalayx
2023-10-21 04:03:55 +0000 UTCOh snap I forgot about Baby Steps when I wrote my reply the other day, that is definitely another top sports anime in my book.
Khalayx
2023-10-21 03:56:26 +0000 UTCblue lock and haikyuu are like the ying and yang of sport anime they are both good but take different take on it would love to se you react to it
millecamps
2023-10-20 15:42:46 +0000 UTCAlso peak pain 😭
QualityFreak
2023-10-20 10:25:14 +0000 UTCoh yes, it's a really good story. Ideally it should be higher in my list but my top 3 just invoke my competitive spirit a bit more than Run with the wind
Girish
2023-10-20 04:43:35 +0000 UTCThis list is great all around but Run with the wind doesn’t get nearly as much love as it should so I’m happy to see it in someone else’s top 5!
Lord Mongrel
2023-10-20 04:39:51 +0000 UTCI think it'd be awesome to see you guys watch Blue Lock its definitely different from Haikyuu and a lot of other sports anime but it is still a great show and is full of a lot of really hype moments and great character arcs.
radguys
2023-10-20 04:24:16 +0000 UTCYour lie
Eric Chandler
2023-10-20 02:22:44 +0000 UTCNot a fan but Ange would probably like it.
Matt Rhinehart
2023-10-19 21:44:39 +0000 UTCBlue lock is good!!! Of the sports anime that I watched, my personal ranking is 1. Haikyuu 2. Blue lock 3. Ao Ashi 4. Run with the wind 5. Kuroko no basket 6. Baby steps (tennis)
Girish
2023-10-19 21:11:23 +0000 UTCNote: English isn't my first language If technical faults in writing don't bother you much, and you have a strong tolerance for edginess/cringe, Blue Lock could be a fun, braindead-hype sort of series. I'd prefer Run with the Wind or Ace of the Diamond for sports, but BL could be interesting for you guys after Haikyuu since they run so opposite in ideology. (optional read/just personal experience) I read 180-something chapters of the manga before the anime was released. While I didn't necessarily agree with the ideas introduced, I'm not the type to overlay my own values onto fictional media, so that wasn't an issue for me. As a former athlete and general fan of sports media, including manga, I was just going in for a good time. I thought the concepts were interesting, but they fell flat because the author's technical writing skills couldn't flesh them out into a believable world. It ended up feeling flimsy and shallow. Character writing in particular was really weak. I found it unconvincing, inconsistent, and contrived, which kept breaking immersion for me. And once I got bored, I couldn't continue ignoring other annoying things like how disrespectful his portrayals of women were. My tolerance for edgy/cringe content also reached a breaking point at the "I'm fucking amazing" chapter. I physically cringed and averted my eyes from the panel. That said, I likely won't be following the BL ride but hope you guys enjoy it if you decide to watch it.
Mysbis
2023-10-19 20:56:20 +0000 UTCHave you guys seen kurokos basketball?
Victor Martinez
2023-10-19 18:20:58 +0000 UTCblue lock is definitely interesting and a different take than Haikyuu on athletes and their resolve! It's also only one season released for now, so it'd be a great short anime to pick up :)
# vivi
2023-10-19 18:20:51 +0000 UTCI would say that the anime’s in future watch list should definitely be, my hero academia, bleach or one piece or Naruto, Ima throw this out there Sword art online, it’s pretty good series’s, season 2 probably the “worst one” but after wards they have really good sword fights and songs because Lisa did make a lot of music with them and there really good.
John duran
2023-10-19 17:55:02 +0000 UTCBlue lock is a really good anime that’s gonna get better over time, definitely after you finsh haikyuu definitely watch that, of course if you guys want to.
John duran
2023-10-19 17:52:30 +0000 UTCHonestly, wish they would redo the old bleach episodes so it's the same quality as the new arc.
Queen
2023-10-19 17:21:32 +0000 UTCRather than blue lock... I'm sure more ppl would love to see ur reaction to Charlotte
Syahidir Hassan
2023-10-19 16:14:09 +0000 UTCBlue lock is good and I think ange will enjoy it soo much especially by the end of season 1. It hits you in the most unexpected way. Not your regular sports anime.
Dinesh
2023-10-19 15:28:26 +0000 UTCKuroko no Basket is great for reacting.
Kae
2023-10-19 14:58:02 +0000 UTCohh cool, eng is not my first language so i dont know slangs that much. thanks for the explanantion
bebe
2023-10-19 14:34:18 +0000 UTCno, "based" is a co-opted slang term that means an opinion that someone thinks is good and agrees with. it's used a lot when the opinion is the minority or can be a bit polarizing. i 100% agree with your comment too
uchenna
2023-10-19 14:32:35 +0000 UTCYes, really weird that I can't recommend a show I didn't enjoy and that I would not watch the reactions of. Really weird way to go about things 🤣 blue lock fanboy logic I guess 😅
Phil
2023-10-19 14:27:53 +0000 UTCThe only arguments I've seen so far are "superpowers and lack of realism in sports anime" Since when is anime supposed to be realistic? It's meant to entertain. Can't blame people for not liking some anime but some people take it too seriously with their haikyuu supremacy
MPM
2023-10-19 14:16:20 +0000 UTCYou also have real sports to enjoy realistic things. Wanting anime to be realistic to be good is such a weird take.
MOB12
2023-10-19 13:41:07 +0000 UTCSo many Haikyuu fanboys say that if you watch haikyuu first you wont like Kuroko and every reaction ive seen proves this wrong. People can like two different kinds of shows, crazy, i know.
MOB12
2023-10-19 13:38:54 +0000 UTCGood death note ending is trash
MOB12
2023-10-19 13:35:44 +0000 UTCCounter point: if you want to watch super realistic stuff, watch the real sports. Why you watching anime expecting stuff to be extremely realistic?
MOB12
2023-10-19 13:34:14 +0000 UTCI like blue lock but the animation actually isnt that good. It has its moments for sure, but it uses too much CGI as the season goes on. Now if it had animation like Kuroko No Basket does from S2 onwards? Now thatd be insane.
MOB12
2023-10-19 13:33:17 +0000 UTCHaikyuu is better so you cant recommend a show you dont find as good? That's such a weird way to go about things lmao some of you haikyuu fanboys are limiting yourselves by being so inlove with the show lol
MOB12
2023-10-19 13:31:21 +0000 UTCTbh Haikyuu fans have a problem with any sports anime that is a bit exaggerated lmao like you see multiple comments saying its too different so don't do it, like a lot of them think you can only like one time of sports anime and its just silly. I see it everywhere. But also Kuroko no Basket would be the best one to do next, and then blue lock after
MOB12
2023-10-19 13:29:08 +0000 UTCYes we need Bleach reactions :)
Ryo Kurosaki
2023-10-19 13:03:22 +0000 UTCoh yeah i didnt mind that, but some people just didnt like teh sound of it :(
tsumusamu
2023-10-19 09:44:26 +0000 UTCI would love to see an October anime OP video so many good anime’s released this month
Jake Barrett
2023-10-19 09:17:54 +0000 UTCAs much as I enjoyed Blue Lock, it definitely doesn't sit at the same table as Haikyuu. It's exciting in a completely different way. TBH I felt a bit rushed through the character developments and arcs. You mentioned that you enjoy reacting to Haikyuu because it's one of the easier animes to fill because you can just enjoy it. Based on that comment I'd offer something like: 1. Salaryman's club 2. Backflip But they both only have one season. No one suggested Kuroko no Basket?
Belinda
2023-10-19 08:33:47 +0000 UTCThat’s fine, but I saw a comment somewhere of someone who dropped it after a couple episodes because they didn’t like their personalities, like damn u didn’t even give them a chance 😭 edit: I just found out it was u 💀 u should give it a shot because there are characters who become very likable, even the ones with “shitty” personalities
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-19 08:32:33 +0000 UTCu mean biased? well ofc it is, arent eveyone here cmmting with their biased opinions here? it's not new.
bebe
2023-10-19 08:20:47 +0000 UTCThey wont do Death Note, they object to it, so no point in asking for it
Aaron Wright
2023-10-19 07:55:00 +0000 UTCOr they just dont like shows with unlikeable people, thats not 'not getting it' thats just not liking that type of show, which is fair.
Aaron Wright
2023-10-19 07:54:22 +0000 UTCIppo is so good
Aaron Wright
2023-10-19 07:51:59 +0000 UTCI think people would rather they keep the show variety a bit thinner, and watch more of them faster, then do new ones after theyre done, rather than having a huge variety of shows coming out slowly...Id rather get 4-5 episodes of the anime I like a week, then 1 episode of the anime I like and then there 9 other anime 1 eps i'm not following.
Aaron Wright
2023-10-19 07:49:43 +0000 UTCthis is a based take
Aaron Wright
2023-10-19 07:48:24 +0000 UTCwe do need bleach reactions tho
bebe
2023-10-19 06:58:41 +0000 UTCBleach do be popping off since it came back
Favian
2023-10-19 06:11:06 +0000 UTCCan we start bleach 🥹🥹
Karan Reddy
2023-10-19 05:49:20 +0000 UTCplease react to Sound! Euphonium it’s so great
嘉铭 李
2023-10-19 04:07:11 +0000 UTCI see Ange has gotten a taste of Haikyuu and wants more :)
Frozenbozo
2023-10-19 04:01:06 +0000 UTCBlue Lock is only 1 season right now so it wouldn't take too long to catch up. Blue lock does a good job at quick character development that make you a fan .it really is a crazy cool concept. Also super excited to see you all doing HxH it's on my personal top 5.
TrueHeater3
2023-10-19 03:38:48 +0000 UTCBlue lock is so gooodd
Max Briggs
2023-10-19 02:57:16 +0000 UTCIf you want a sports related anime I suggest Major! It's soooo good
Jjaein
2023-10-19 00:21:27 +0000 UTCdo you see all of them proving my point LMFAO
Brandon Gomez
2023-10-18 23:50:21 +0000 UTCI don't think that's the case. I finished the whole season of blue lock but it's still not comparable to other sports anime in terms of entertaining in my opinion. And yes I agree they should watch couple of episodes and decide for themselves BUT after they finish Haikyuu 😊
Bibi
2023-10-18 23:42:49 +0000 UTCOnly if it doesn't interfere with the Haikyuu upload schedule. I couldn't really get into Blue Lock, but maybe it'll be different if I watch along with you guys.
Rae
2023-10-18 21:42:09 +0000 UTCHaven’t heard of this one but don’t want you guys to spread yourselves too thin! I would always prefer getting more episodes of a smaller pool of shows than less episodes of a pool of lots of different shows. I feel that a good sweet spot is 2-4 eps a week of four different shows (:
avalon
2023-10-18 21:27:54 +0000 UTCblue lock is cool but i want more HxH ! :)
Maximilien Leymonerie
2023-10-18 21:13:30 +0000 UTCBlue Lock is more of a battle shonen than a sports anime but it's still hype as hell
zzip711
2023-10-18 21:01:16 +0000 UTCI'm a vote for the "no thanks" collumn
Sharles Davis Kendy
2023-10-18 20:40:22 +0000 UTCHell yeah blue lock imo is the best sports anime and the manga is hella lit
Sparky
2023-10-18 20:32:27 +0000 UTCCan't watch both at the same time... 2 different approaches to a sports anime. They will interfere with each other.
googlek1 .
2023-10-18 19:21:12 +0000 UTCi dont hate the show. I think youre not grasping the sexualization of Marin and you’re minimizing it but thats besides the point now. No, most people here dont think they would enjoy this show and thats okay. You enjoy it and thats fine. Period.
Lau
2023-10-18 19:12:25 +0000 UTCThis is peak romance
Coils J
2023-10-18 19:04:44 +0000 UTCAfter giving it some thought I would say that if it was for the manga blue lock is a must read, but the anime doesn't capture the essence of the manga, it has a couple of good episodes but that's it. For recommendation I would say Yuri on Ice, is an 11 episodes anime about Ice Skating, there's no manga so no worries about spoilers. And also Hajime no Ippo and dunk slam are good options too, a bit more serious but with a lot of humor. And for calm enjoyable watch I would say Sk8 the Infinity, pretty charming characters and good pacing
Edmon
2023-10-18 18:50:29 +0000 UTCYou will enjoy blue lock for sure, I see some people recommending ao ashi, and while it is more realistic anime sports-wise, I didn't find it quite as fun as Blue Lock.
Денис Куличенко
2023-10-18 18:48:48 +0000 UTCI think a bit of people bad impressions comes from only having seen the first few episodes. The show has a “striking” premise (wink wink) and can be hard to stomach at first. But as the show explains itself I find it has deep layers of realism about the world of competition that are quite wise at times, and not to mention it’s extremely hype. I wholeheartedly think y’all would like it a lot.
CastSenpai
2023-10-18 18:47:31 +0000 UTCAo Ashi is much better and actually talks about football. Blue Lock is a battle royale where football is just because its the most popular sports in the world.
Maxime Goettelmann
2023-10-18 18:11:53 +0000 UTCBeen tempted to dive into the manga for Ao Ashi, since we've heard nothing about an additional season at this point.
WuXian Suibian
2023-10-18 18:04:55 +0000 UTCTbh I think Ange will probably enjoy Ao no Ashi more than Blue Lock, and it'll be fine for your content flow if you replace Haikyuu with Ao no Ashi after it's done because it's a decently short series.
Nymph
2023-10-18 17:30:36 +0000 UTComg i love your lie in april!
beannieswife
2023-10-18 17:23:57 +0000 UTCI'd love to see you guys react to Ace of the Diamond, I think that would be a better one than Blue Lock in all honesty
Mully997
2023-10-18 17:23:16 +0000 UTCIdk whatever you do about BL, as long as haikyu uploads dont change, i will be here. but i can see other supporters from your community are gonna complain about lack of variety since you are watching a long run HXH, a sport anime Haikyu and if you add one more sports with mobs and 86 ending soon, majority of the non-fan sports anime will leave ur community since there aint anything to watch and enjoy for them. and personally, i dont enjoy watching reactors who dive into a variety of animes at the same time. I have seen some couldnt handle the load and just messed up. I also stopped watching from them because they watch a lot and they dont even remember what they watch in the last episode becasue of so many animes they are watching, really spoils the mood of the audience. Just enjoy the anime you are currently watching, the other new animes wont disappear even if you delay them a bit.
bebe
2023-10-18 17:14:10 +0000 UTClmao u said insecurity issues, lmao, an anime deviating from most sports anime wouldnt mean it's a good sports anime anyway. even KnB still has better plot.
bebe
2023-10-18 17:08:36 +0000 UTCHell yea
Mohamed Nasser
2023-10-18 17:06:17 +0000 UTCit's not a hate, because after haikyu, it doesnt get me like haikyu does. Nothing exicting about it after watching a few eps and reading a few manga chps, if i want some superpowers and egocentric issues, i can go watch other animes. Haikyu influence over the audience will make BL look inferior anytime. It's gonna be good for those who enjoy superpowers and who havent watched a good sports anime before. Yea but definitely not for us, mainly me
bebe
2023-10-18 17:05:37 +0000 UTCits not about the hype or best arc, i just got bored of the egocentric issue in the plot so if the content is still gonna be centered around that, it's gonna be a no from me,
bebe
2023-10-18 16:56:46 +0000 UTCwell if i dont feel like continue reading after reading up to that much, it means it doesnt get me feeling to continue and i dont think whatever the best arc up there wouldnt excite me either.
bebe
2023-10-18 16:55:30 +0000 UTCthey can think they are the best but there is no one to support them, they cant win anyway so unless u are playing a solo player sports, idk whatever u say about it. if its a team sports, it gotta have teamwork.
bebe

Clément Creton
2023-10-18 16:51:07 +0000 UTCYes, for sure! It’s a different type of sports anime than Haikyuu but I love them for those differences.
Lord Mongrel
2023-10-18 16:31:29 +0000 UTCI mean blue lock isn't really something crazy, before i haven't even watched sports anime since it bores me. But its funny how people suddenly care about logic and realism in anime
MPM
2023-10-18 16:02:10 +0000 UTCwould be nice to see you guys react to kuroko no basket!
TiredRen
2023-10-18 15:23:34 +0000 UTCYeah but I prefer hajime no ippo
Ibraheem
2023-10-18 14:47:02 +0000 UTCExcept they are 😂 look at the interviews of the best athletes in the world, they all have crazy egos. You don’t even have to go as far as the best, if you look at NBA rookies, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen players get drafted and when asked about their confidence in press conferences, they already think they’re the best in the league. Zlatan even said this in a recent video, he believes he’s the best player to ever touch a football, most people would disagree but this just goes to show how much athletes at that level have egos

2023-10-18 14:37:07 +0000 UTCSays who? A bunch of 5 yos that watches anime for action and flashy animation? It only got the hype because Isayama talked about it. Nothing more
Vidura Lakshan
2023-10-18 14:19:35 +0000 UTCFeel free to react to it since that's what most of the fans prefer. But I realy didn't like Blue Lock. It was just not for me. Would be nice if you could react to Ao Ashi tho
Thorfinn's left nut
2023-10-18 14:18:31 +0000 UTCFinally someone like me. I too liked Ao Ashi more than Blue Lock and even I dropped Blue Lock after ep2. It was too cringy for me. Also, the Ao Ashi manga is seriously good
Vidura Lakshan
2023-10-18 14:16:42 +0000 UTCPersonally I really loved Blue Lock and I think the characters would appeal to you to
Summi773
2023-10-18 14:08:27 +0000 UTCI really liked "Blue Lock," and even though it is a sports anime, it's really different. I would love to see your reaction to it!
Dawid Hebda
2023-10-18 13:49:46 +0000 UTCBluelock is fire and as someone who competed at the highest collegiate level (D1), alot of the philosophies and such ring true IRL as well
Cassii
2023-10-18 13:24:42 +0000 UTCYour argument isn’t holding up, I never said I liked that I simply told you it’s something I can overlook because again it’s not in a sexual manner. I explained it’s from gojos perspective and he’s a loner from high school who gets puts in awkward scenarios where Marin is showing part of her body and he gets uncomfortable and awkward. I simply didn’t see this show as that perverted, there’s only one scene that is a bit sexual and I’m sure you know what scene that is but again nothing happens it’s an awkward situation. If Carlie and ange get bothered by stuff like it’s in this show then I agree maybe they shouldn’t try it out. But for me the reason I liked the show is the chemistry/dialogue in the relationship between the 2.
Raul Velazquez
2023-10-18 13:11:14 +0000 UTCJust throwing my hat in to say that Blue Lock didn't really grab me. Feel free to react to whatever you find interesting, though. Reactions are always more fun if the people are really into it, rather than going through the motions watching something other people deem better.
N
2023-10-18 12:54:41 +0000 UTCbut its not, haikyu is just objectively better. I play football at club level mind you and should have a biase towards it but blue lock is just unrealistic and mid
souma shou
2023-10-18 12:54:14 +0000 UTCnah blue lock is mid ngl
souma shou
2023-10-18 12:53:17 +0000 UTCPersonally, I dropped it on Ep2. The themes and philosophy of it were not for me. Of the two soccer (football) anime that came out in the summer of 2022, I liked Ao Ashi better. For me, I preferred the more realistic approach to the story, and the characters were more relatable - more like Haikyuu. In the past, I have enjoyed other sports anime including, “Run with the Wind, “an anime about a college track team that is centered around strong character development. RWTW had the same production team as Haikyuu, the same Composer, and several of the same VAs. Ace of the Diamond, is a nice slow-burn story with great character development and plenty of hype Baseball moments. I thoroughly enjoyed it even though I am NOT a fan of Baseball, but loved the characters, and their story, plus I learned to at least appreciate the game more. If you like hype then Blue Lock is for you, and it is in the end your choice as a content creator, but it won’t be a show I watch. I was here for your Vinland Saga, and stayed for your Haikyuu and 86 content.

Nguyen Anh Quan
2023-10-18 12:18:15 +0000 UTCmy problem with blue lock is I find it hard to relate into. It really looks exciting thats why i gave it a shot but it doesn't resonate with me. I thought it will be like KnB which I absolutely love but i dont classify it as a sports genre.
myel
2023-10-18 11:39:22 +0000 UTCNo one says this 😭
le
2023-10-18 10:58:44 +0000 UTCexactly my opinion. Haikyuu is objectively better with a better storyline and cast of characters, but but Blue Lock is so FUN! and a concept a bit more interesting than "playing high school volleyball"
Martina
2023-10-18 10:08:39 +0000 UTCBlue Lock is REALISTIC?! What kind of super powered mutants are on YOUR sports team?!
Smash Bran'Discootch
2023-10-18 10:08:37 +0000 UTCoh no ofc jobless reincarnation is much more perverted in that manner; but Marin is exposed in many episodes in very little clothing in a very sexual way, even if in the end their relationship is pure. That is also fanservice, marin, a 15-16 year old, in purely a bikini with weird angles and in a sexual situation, is heavy fanservice. Dont get me wrong, youre allowed to like that, i dont even know you, but think about Carlie and Ange... do you really think they would react nicely to this? have you ever seen them react to something like that? The heaviest fanservice thing theyve ever reacted to is chainsaw man. thats it. And Id rather not watch those kind of shows bc it makes a lot of us uncomfy tbh.
Lau
2023-10-18 09:17:28 +0000 UTCalso haikyu fans have insecurity issues with it bc a lot of people say blue lock is the best sports anime lmao
Brandon Gomez
2023-10-18 09:02:33 +0000 UTCblue lock is really good and different from most sports animes too
Brandon Gomez
2023-10-18 09:01:42 +0000 UTCI feel like most of the haikyu audience hates/has some kind of blue lock problem. Fact its not the best sports anime but definitely one of the most entertaining, there is constantly something going on. Watch one episode and decide for yourself!
MPM
2023-10-18 08:57:00 +0000 UTCIf you guys want to watch a different type of genre later i highly recommend Fruits Basket ❤️

2023-10-18 08:18:37 +0000 UTCwe just had high expectations bro its not our fault
bebe
2023-10-18 07:36:57 +0000 UTCpersonally i think blue lock is worth the watch for sure but i would do it once you finish haikyuu rather than having two sports anime going at once!! i would love to see y’all react to it though
storm (kasey) !
2023-10-18 07:12:28 +0000 UTCI honestly don’t have any desire to watch another sports anime. What about an absolute classic like, “Anohana?”
The Great Santini
2023-10-18 06:20:39 +0000 UTCIt very different from haikyuu

2023-10-18 04:11:55 +0000 UTCmaybe finish more shows than add another. Im only here for 86 right now.
Finnishdoggo
2023-10-18 03:35:12 +0000 UTCpersonally not that interested in blue lock sadly, think haikyuu was a lot more enjoyable imo~ and as a lot of people have suggested above, kuroko no basuke would be a great option!
cherry park
2023-10-18 03:31:38 +0000 UTCI was prejudiced to Food wards at first but hell it was so good that i binged it from S1-S5
myel
2023-10-18 03:09:27 +0000 UTCI’d really prefer you watch a different genre and not watch two sports animes at the same time it won’t be that exciting and fun for y’all or us Watching a diff genre esp comedy romance or mystery would be a great variety of what you’re watching rn also I don’t think you have replacement for bocchi? Don’t remember After haikyuu blue lock is fine
Алта
2023-10-18 03:00:44 +0000 UTCHaikyuu and Blue Lock are polar opposites - one focuses on teamwork, the other one’s anything but that. But blue lock’s pretty fun too, just not as realistic to real life footy.
tanzim haque
2023-10-18 02:48:46 +0000 UTCI feel like almost everything that you watch after Haikyuu will look mid, because it is really a top tier sports anime. Personally, I found Blue Lock very entertaining but it looked like science fiction and I lost interest over time because of that. I would recommend 'Ace of the Diamond' (baseball), which had me crying of joy/pain more than any shoujo anime ever :'). The main difference with Haikyuu is that AOD has way more angst and is not always a feel good story. It is extremely realistic in showing the struggle of competitive athletes.
Vanessa
2023-10-18 02:44:25 +0000 UTCi think other sports anime are a better option like ace of diamond (baseball), hajime no ippo (boxing), yuri on ice (figure skating). in my opinion sports anime are better when they are more realistic (? i feel like it hits different and still has its epic moments (like haikyuu). blue lock is not bad ? but i don't think it's haikyuu level
karin をに
2023-10-18 02:20:18 +0000 UTCI think there are other shows that I would be more interested in watching you guy react to more than blue lock, atleast me personally
imvirals
2023-10-18 02:16:20 +0000 UTCNothing to do with sports anime... but what about "My dress up darling"??? I would like to see Angelooouuu reaction
Fredi Mella
2023-10-18 01:34:51 +0000 UTCits definitely good but a little overhyped. u guys should enjoy it though
Redback
2023-10-18 01:29:59 +0000 UTCAlways excited for what you guys watch. I just don't want you to take on too much! Adding another show to the reaction playlist seems like a lot, for both you guys and us (imo). But after Haikyuu, sounds dope!
Derek
2023-10-18 01:29:08 +0000 UTCPersonally not as much of a fan of this one. I think the premise is kinda interesting for a sports anime but I didn't think the characters were as compelling as some other sports shows.
HyperionMist
2023-10-18 01:00:18 +0000 UTCI have to admit I was planning to watch it when it aired but never got around to it. Might be something to put on my list of shows to watch next. ☺️ March comes in like a lion is another great show. That I should have added to the list. Completely slipped my mind. Maybe I'll add it now.
Stefanie
2023-10-18 00:50:56 +0000 UTCPlease yes, Blue Lock was so good and might end up being as good as Haikyuu. Sports anime are some of my favorites, Kuroko No Basket is another amazing sports anime worth checking out one day
Matt Golding
2023-10-18 00:41:50 +0000 UTCLETS GOOOO

2023-10-18 00:40:15 +0000 UTCYes please, it is absolutely so much fun, and in such a different way than haikyuu, yall would love it
imersity
2023-10-18 00:28:23 +0000 UTCYeah i hope its not a bonus series. Hunter hunter is already gonna take over a year at this pace amd adding another show to the line up will take away from alot of the other shows. Now i could see it happening if it was a replacement to something they are almost finished with and hopefully that's the case

2023-10-17 23:47:59 +0000 UTCAs a blue lock manga reader and haikyuu manga reader i would like to say that bluelock manga is by far better than haikyuu (haikyu is still so good) and the anime will not disappoint you the only problem i see is it has 1 season so you will have to wait obviously which could be a drag but thats all up to yall
Coils J
2023-10-17 23:39:28 +0000 UTCsame, i couldnt finish blue lock either. it lost my interest along the way
bebe
2023-10-17 23:38:10 +0000 UTCI cannot speak for everyone, especially as someone who didnt finish Blue Lock. Their theme is not for me. :< I prefer you guys finished HAIKYUU first then Blue lock or other sports. I have other suggestions for sports anime tho: 1. Yowamushi Pedal (cycling) but its not "hyped" so idk if this will work well on YT if u had a time you can watch it on your own! 2. Diamond no Ace (baseball) 3. Hajime no Ippo (boxing)
myel
2023-10-17 23:25:42 +0000 UTCBlue Lock is not good. It’s mid at best. If you’re going to do another sports anime that isn’t even the first or second best when it comes to soccer, let alone other sports. Giant Killing and Days are both infinitely better, and even Ao Ashi is better. When it comes to other sports anime, Run with the Wind, Tsurune, Yuri on Ice, and Ping Pong are amazing, and short. Yowamushi Pedal, Hajime no Ippo, Daiya no Ace, and Kuroko’s Basketball are amazing, but longer.
Elli
2023-10-17 23:11:16 +0000 UTCYAy a fellow YowaPeda enthusiast! It's rare to find someone who likes yowapeda. :< And it's so good too! Agree on Dia no Ace ~ the first episode is a already a hooker!
myel
2023-10-17 23:06:01 +0000 UTChave you seen yowamushi pedal? for me this is the 2nd best after Haikyuu!
myel
2023-10-17 23:04:05 +0000 UTCJust a heads up is that Blue Lock would have very long wait times in between seasons since the manga is ongoing. So most likely will be years in between of waiting.
Edward Michaelle
2023-10-17 23:03:46 +0000 UTCI feel like the same things could be said for Re:Zero (popular series, unique premise, and new season coming soon), but that's a can of worms I probably shouldn't open. 😅 They've tentatively committed to watching it someday, so I'll be waiting patiently, but your comment reminded me of it for some reason. lol
Merfhew
2023-10-17 22:56:55 +0000 UTCYes you should definitely react to blue lock. It’s a really popular anime and season 2 of it and new movie is going to come out next year so it’s best to watch it now. It will also help new people to watch ur channel as it it invites a lot of new people to your reaction because of blue lock and how unique it is. And u guys will surely love it
mohamed rafee
2023-10-17 22:54:20 +0000 UTCQuestion. Would this be a potential bonus series you're adding to the lineup, or would it be a potential replacement for something you're currently watching? If it's the latter, do you have any alternatives? I know you try to balance between genres and tones, so I'm not sure another sports show is needed right now. Sorry, but I'm firmly in the "No thank you" camp for Blue Lock reactions.
Merfhew
2023-10-17 22:51:49 +0000 UTCWell you said erotic content which is usually sexual things. It does sexualize a little bit but I think it’s in a tame tone because the characters are in high school afterall and it’s doing it to show gojos thought process imo and how he feels. If you were in gojos shoes as a loner high school boy I’m sure you’d feel the same way when put in the awkward situations he’s put in by Marin. Idk I just don’t think the show is bad in terms of that compared to other shows like jobless reincarnation. But if they’re bothered by things like that then I guess it’s not a good recommendation, I just really liked their wholesome vibe and chemistry to where I overlooked the fan service.
Raul Velazquez
2023-10-17 22:48:51 +0000 UTCweird? ecchi does not mean it contains sexual intercourse, thats called hentai. And its not just a little bit of fan service, it is a lot, specially in the first half of the season. And its fan service of a teenage girl. I agree that the relationship is cute and they are cute; but its not denying the bothersome sexualization they do with Marin. Ecchi is different from hentai in the fact that ecchi will include/focus on sexual content/situations, while hentai is directly porn.
Lau
2023-10-17 22:43:45 +0000 UTCHonestly i didn't like it so i would rather see you react to another K-drama 😊
Rubie
2023-10-17 22:42:10 +0000 UTCYess, 100% recommend blue lock
Crescent
2023-10-17 22:37:15 +0000 UTCMight be more interesting for Ange since it's football, but I can't recommend the anime. Haikyuu is just better, so it would be a "no" for me.
Phil
2023-10-17 22:34:49 +0000 UTCNah you gotta watch blue lock. During or after haikyuu, especially since ange got a soccer background
blr0n
2023-10-17 22:29:54 +0000 UTCI used to think I was the only one who loved it so much but there are a lot of us out there! It is really incredible. As you can kind of tell from some of my picks (Sumo, Chihaya, Snow White Notes) I particularly like anime when it introduces things from Japanese culture that we are less familiar with in the west.
Khalayx
2023-10-17 22:26:11 +0000 UTCthis is an amazing list, i loved all of these titles :) !!
uchenna
2023-10-17 22:14:59 +0000 UTCI love Chihayafuru! I really would love if more channels would give it a try!
RPSiege
2023-10-17 22:14:00 +0000 UTCI think the anime is mid at best. I'd recommend Kuroko no Basket, that's a good sports anime. Also this is not a sports anime but I recommend JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Y'all would enjoy that anime.
vojeeisgaming
2023-10-17 22:10:52 +0000 UTCThat is what I am thinking too.
Khalayx
2023-10-17 22:07:58 +0000 UTCI haven’t watched many sports anime, so I don’t have a lot of examples, but if you want a sports anime that has a stronger focus on characters(my cup of tea), Run with the Wind is great!
RPSiege
2023-10-17 22:05:12 +0000 UTCSnow white notes would be dope just to get ange's musical perspective.
Danny
2023-10-17 22:04:08 +0000 UTCI think Run with the Wind is the most satisfied I've ever been with an anime
Tina Dearing
2023-10-17 22:03:10 +0000 UTCSports Anime: 1. Ace of Diamond (Baseball, incredible show, long running) 2. Hinomaru Sumo (Good characters plus learn about sumo) 3. Yuri on Ice (Not my favorite overall, but the animation quality is top tier) Other Shows about Competitive High School Clubs: 1. Chihayafuru (One of my favorite animes of all time. Will also improve your Japenese pronunciation just from watching. More romance than the others on these lists though.) 2. Your Lie in April (You will be sobbing. Individual rather than team competitions unlike the rest of these, but it would make great reaction content and is a very popular anime.) 3. Those Snow White Notes ( Listen to people shred on Japenese guitar, Ange might find this very interesting in particular. Probably a little less well-known, but very good.)
Khalayx
2023-10-17 22:01:16 +0000 UTCAll of your suggestions are great. Chihayafuru is one of the best anime ever.
Tina Dearing
2023-10-17 22:00:42 +0000 UTCI agree! I would recommend Death Note!
Bibi
2023-10-17 21:53:25 +0000 UTCI'm hoping they do Ace of Diamond and I am guessing it is the more popular of the two, but Chihayafuru is one of my favorite animes of all time regardless of genre. Yuri on Ice has incredible animation as well. What I am saying is - good list! Food Wars is amusing and the first couple of seasons were good, but I'm not sure how these two would feel about how sexualized some of the animation is.
Khalayx
2023-10-17 21:52:15 +0000 UTCNot at the same time of Haikyuu if possible. Even for yourselves, for your enjoyment, and to avoid people going to either reaction comments and say "where Haikyuu? where Blue lock?" which people already do for other series but you get it lol
Araragi Senpai
2023-10-17 21:52:03 +0000 UTCLol no they are not. There are people like that, sure, but not most of them. The Blue Lock system is the most stupidest sport development sytem ever created.
Nguyen Anh Quan
2023-10-17 21:50:06 +0000 UTCI'm pushing for Ace of Diamond but the animation quality of Yuri on Ice is very high, that's a good recommendation as well. Plus its a short show.
Khalayx
2023-10-17 21:49:36 +0000 UTCCame here specifically to recommend this. Ace of Diamond is a very strong contender for best sports anime of all time. Similar to Haikyuu (I think even better personally) as Carol Yu says.
Khalayx
2023-10-17 21:47:35 +0000 UTCPass on Blue Lock. I would rather see you do Eyeshield 21. It is a fun one involving American Football. The manga it was based on was by Murata.

2023-10-17 21:40:33 +0000 UTCWould've preferred Kuroko no Basket

Adan Aban
2023-10-17 21:31:01 +0000 UTCWeird because there’s literally no sex in the show or even close to it. Just a little bit of fan service, I think their relationship is super pure either way.
Raul Velazquez
2023-10-17 21:28:35 +0000 UTCno, the anime is literally under the ecchi tag, which is a genre that CONTAINS fan service and is erotic content. Theyve watched anime with some fan service before, but they havent watched an ecchi before. If you knew them I dont think you would suggest this. Im not saying its wrong of you to like that anime, just something that does not fit the shows they watch at all.
Lau
2023-10-17 21:27:16 +0000 UTCYes 100% watching it after Haikyuu is so interesting as it focuses on elements of sport completely differently.

2023-10-17 21:12:05 +0000 UTCEhh blue lock has its moments but its a mid anime. The only peak sports anime aside from haikyuu is hajime no ippo.
Josh Migos
2023-10-17 21:05:34 +0000 UTCPersonally, I don’t think there should be any rush for you to watch Blue Lock. It’s pretty different from Haikyuu, so I honestly don’t feel a lot of overlap(aside from being sports anime), and I admit it is fun, but I don’t love it by any means. Again, it’s just my opinion, but I love Haikyuu for the games/sport on top of the great characters. It almost feels like I’m not exaggerating when I say I love all the characters. In Blue Lock, I might be able to say I love one? And even that feels like I’m grasping at straws. With all that said, if you guys are curious about it, it’s still a fun show!
RPSiege
2023-10-17 21:02:21 +0000 UTCI would like to recommend a niche but super good anime called nurarihyon no mago.

2023-10-17 20:56:07 +0000 UTCYES, ABSOLUTELY! I binged watched the first season in literally 2 days, it's so hype! while objectively I think Haikyuu is better, Blue Lock has a more interesting premise and like I said, it's just very fun and hype to watch.
Martina
2023-10-17 20:56:05 +0000 UTCi dont think they would like that one bc of the heavily sexualised minors in it. Knowing them, I wouldnt say this is a good recommendation.
Lau
2023-10-17 20:55:24 +0000 UTCBlue Lock is an absolute blast. It's corny and over the top, but it is unabashed hype and it's really really fun.
JadonTheEternal
2023-10-17 20:54:35 +0000 UTCShould watch my dress up darling tbh
Raul Velazquez
2023-10-17 20:54:15 +0000 UTCI would but after haikyuu is over, it’s definitely not as good as haikyuu but the animation is great.
Raul Velazquez
2023-10-17 20:52:12 +0000 UTCDianond no Ace (baseball⚾) is another great one! Good story plotlines, epic epic moments, and nice character arcs and developments. Also it portrays competitive players go through psychologically in a rather realistic way. And in a way like Haikyuu and it doesn't really have a main character and every character gets to shine! Yowamushi pedal is another great sports anime, and as the name suggests is about competitive cycling. It is fun and exciting and it also has really lovable characters!
Carol Yu
2023-10-17 20:39:54 +0000 UTCU miss the point, BlueLock is not saying teamwork is bad, damn near half the season was about finding “chemical reactions” or in other words, “teamwork”. It does however focus heavily on the individual and how that individual ultimately affects the team.
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 20:37:50 +0000 UTCIts my favorite sports anime its soo hype.
Casval
2023-10-17 20:36:09 +0000 UTCIronically, Bluelock actually shows in a very roundabout way that you need teamwork. I swear people just watch it and completely miss the point it’s trying to convey because of the flashiness or selfishness of the players. I could write on and on about how Bluelock actually facilitates teamwork but in a very different approach than other sports anime’s and it’s main focus is in fact on the individual players confidence
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 20:34:56 +0000 UTCU legit stopped right before the best arc 😭

2023-10-17 20:30:11 +0000 UTCBlue lock is fun :)

Muz
2023-10-17 20:16:40 +0000 UTCI think he means the mentality of really successful players, most of them are incredibly egotistical like in BL
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 20:14:49 +0000 UTCA lot of athletes are like this, you would be surprised. The higher the level you play (granted it’s outside of a school or college) the more selfish players are and also the better they are. I don’t think it’s a coincidence
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 20:13:04 +0000 UTCDefinitely watch blue lock because it is very competitive
Maya Coleman
2023-10-17 20:11:39 +0000 UTCWonder why u think it’s dogshit if you like the manga? The animation isn’t good but I wouldn’t say dogshit, I watched like 12 episodes and was so interested by it I couldn’t wait for the second cour and decided to start reading the manga
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 20:10:55 +0000 UTCWatch Monster first. You already have a sports anime. Time to add a harrowing grounded (why is this an anime) serial killer mystery to your list.
Amrith
2023-10-17 20:10:11 +0000 UTCi would love to see your reactions to blue lock but i would prefer that you finish haikyu first then move one to another sports anime. Though if you do want to watch another sports anime i would recommend Hajime no Ippo since that one is more grounded in the excitement and realism of real boxing. Mind you because it is anime they do over dramatize some things in the sport like haikyu with the spikes/serves/setups but it is up there with haikyu in my opinion in its portrayal of the sport itself. Can't help but want to go exercise or move your body after watching a fight.
paladar blade
2023-10-17 20:09:23 +0000 UTCYou stopped reading right before the best arc 😭 if you ever pick it up again, try to get to the u20 arc, it’s one of the most hype matches in animanga I’ve seen
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 20:09:16 +0000 UTCCurious, what other football mangas you think are better? I like BlueLock because it’s just a different philosophy from the generic teamwork makes the dream work, woohoo
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 20:06:17 +0000 UTCPing pong the animation (ping pong)
Queen
2023-10-17 20:05:17 +0000 UTCHajime no Ippo and Major are highly likeable and are the best sports manga including comedy, romance, hype and incredible "reactable" moments. Its golden ticket for any reactors, but since they're not overhyped "anime of the season", they are often dismissed. Just like Slam Dunk because "its old" while its a far better sports manga and anime than Kuroko no basket.
Maxime Goettelmann
2023-10-17 20:04:12 +0000 UTCyou also need to think about what they would like and would not, not only what you do or dont like. I havent watched either so idk but I think y'all forget this when suggesting or recommending. Not trying to sound mean or anything!!
Lau
2023-10-17 19:54:05 +0000 UTClmao BL is the most realistic sports anime? lmao that's the most bullshit i have ever heard
bebe
2023-10-17 19:50:46 +0000 UTCmmmm while I enjoyed and liked Blue Lock, I'm not entirely sure you both would enjoy the whole season (though I'd still watch your reaction to it haha). I'd suggest stick with Haikyuu for sports for now and maybe introduce another genre or just keep with the ones y'all enjoy and know (: I wanted to suggest a couple titles (not sports related or intended to be substitutes for sports anime, but additions) for maybe future options: Dororo (demons and samurai, by mappa), The Ancient Magus' Bride (fantasy, magic, supernatural), Re: Zero (this one is an isekai, tbh I dont know if you would love this genre but maybe look into it or if someone else suggests it) and Made in Abyss (fantasy, mystery, adventure); I would also love to see you guys react to Alice in Borderland if you havent seen it yet, its not an anime, but adapted from a manga, its on Netflix and I am 100% sure you both would like it! I'd also suggest to react to some movies, even though I know it would be hard to edit them, maybe you can do timer reaction to these: A silent voice (drama), Your name (drama, supernatural), Suzume (same creators as Your name) and maybe some studio Ghibli movies! Sorry for the long long and boring text, this was just in case y'all ever need or want to think about new recommendations (for any time in the future) :D
Lauraa Rodríguez
2023-10-17 19:45:12 +0000 UTCDiamond No Ace > Blue Lock But my vote is for Food Wars! It'll be really interesting to see you guys try out some of the recipes too haha.
Charlie
2023-10-17 19:39:59 +0000 UTCI do believe two more "serious" type sports anime would not be well received, but you could always go for the more light sports anime, with less episodes and more slice of life things to it, like Hanebado! or Harukana Receive and similar.
すもも麻子
2023-10-17 19:38:47 +0000 UTCFor me personally this is not something I would prefer. I don't like shows like Blue Lock or Kuruko no Basket where ppl have special powers/moves that look like they are from a super hero show. If I want to watch some teenager with special powers to level up there are a bazillion other shows that come to mind. I am with everyone who is of the mind to finish Haikyuu first and THEN pick up another sports anime. As for what sports anime, my choices are probably not as click baity as things like Kuruko or Blue Lock, but they are shows that I really enjoyed. 1) Diamond no Ace (baseball) 2) Yuri on Ice (figure skating) 3) Free! (swimming) 4) Chihayafuru (Karuto) 5) Run with the wind (Marathon relay running) 6) Stars Align (Soft Tennis) 7) Tsurune (Archery) 8) Food Wars (competitive cooking) 9) Welcome to the Ballroom (competitive dancing) edit: 10) March comes in like a lion (Shogi) I'm curious as to what you will pick next. 😊
Stefanie
2023-10-17 19:35:44 +0000 UTCBetter sports anime are Run with the Wind and Yuri on Ice, both are nice and short as well.
Tina Dearing
2023-10-17 19:33:22 +0000 UTCNo to Blue Lock. I would really really love to watch them react to Ted Lasso if they want football/soccer content it would be immensely entertaining, one of the great shows.
Tina Dearing
2023-10-17 19:32:29 +0000 UTCThe show is miles from the manga, but I’ve seen a lot of comments here about personalities specifically, not a critique on the anime, but the characters specifically. In that case I think they are either misunderstanding characters or just missing the point completely
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 19:30:16 +0000 UTCDefinitely not true. I own the manga, the manga is great. It’s just that the show is not. At least in my opinion. And many others
Floch
2023-10-17 19:28:43 +0000 UTCYes blue lock
Hertog
2023-10-17 19:25:30 +0000 UTCY’all should def watch BlueLock, it’s super enjoyable and thought provoking honestly
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 19:23:31 +0000 UTCEverybody hating on BlueLock because characters have a horrible personality are completely missing the point of BlueLock 😂
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 19:21:23 +0000 UTCMaybe you could create another vote? I personally would watch it but probably drop after a few episodes.. blue lock is great for sure but it's kinda mid compared to other sports anime.. especially haikyuu.. And yeah i watch and read blue lock manga until the last update, still think it's kinda "yeah it's good i guess" But i personally want you guys to wait until haikyuu finish.. to keep variety of the genre. There's other great show, and i'm waiting for it.. For example i'm waiting for someone to vote frieren from this season.. it's a beautiful fantasy anime that have really high score currently, and i think you guys would really love the show..
mpb
2023-10-17 19:19:42 +0000 UTCFr, how he gonna discredit an anime after 2 episodes 😭
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 19:18:42 +0000 UTCI disagree, it misses out on the generic teamwork trope because it aims to showcase the ego that superstar athletes have. I’m not a superstar athlete but I play basketball and one of the things I wish I knew earlier was the confidence you need to be a good player, sometimes it’s even good to be delusional. Often times a rookie will get drafted to the NBA and in interviews you’ll hear about how they already think they’re the best in the league, obviously it’s not true but it’s that sense of self that got them as far as they did. Bluelock explores that aspect of the psyche and of course it’s heavily exaggerated and there are aspects of the anime that you would not see in real life football, but it’s still a good interpretation of the mindset of the best athletes in the world. It was originally written to critique the Japanese sports mentality after they were knocked out of the 2018 World Cup, I think it does a good job at highlighting a part of sports that nobody ever talks about in a good way which is ego.
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 19:12:15 +0000 UTCThe reason I bring forth the idea of realism is because I thought it would be easier for Ange to relate to.
Queen
2023-10-17 19:09:20 +0000 UTCYou watched 2 episodes and made that conclusion, you shouldn't be part of the discussion.
Cr33pit
2023-10-17 19:04:17 +0000 UTCI'd really love to see AO Ashi, a football (soccer) anime.
Kevin Seemangal
2023-10-17 19:03:48 +0000 UTCi think ange would like it since he is a cr7 fan . it's a good soccer/football anime
ARYAN SINGH
2023-10-17 19:03:17 +0000 UTCNo, anime doesn't have to be realistic to be good. But not being realistic doesn't equal good either. Ao ashi is the superior football manga, blue lock is more of a power fantasy with football theme.
Nguyen Anh Quan
2023-10-17 19:00:23 +0000 UTCThe team nature of the Japanese football is a strength not a weakness. No one likes the up themselves sports stats. They just kick a ball
Aaron Wright
2023-10-17 18:59:46 +0000 UTCYou should finish Haikyuu first in my opinion. That way you can see the difference in these 2 sports anime

Nguyen Anh Quan
2023-10-17 18:57:59 +0000 UTCthe characters aren't terrible people, they're competing in a competition which is the entire point of the anime...

Aaron Wright
2023-10-17 18:56:27 +0000 UTCI haven't watched any sports anime so it isn't something I'm excited for but apparently it's one of the better ones, so go for it if you'd like.
Noctislolig
2023-10-17 18:56:11 +0000 UTCI’d rather they wait and just keep one sports anime. As someone with no interest in sport I don’t want half the reactions to be sport. Let’s keep the genres diverse so everyone has something to look forward to
Aaron Wright
2023-10-17 18:55:55 +0000 UTCIt totally misses the point on everything sports related imo
Aaron Wright
2023-10-17 18:54:18 +0000 UTCI mean an extra reaction is always good but if it's at expend of a different anime then i would rather not because there are so many better one out there.

Knight
2023-10-17 18:53:13 +0000 UTCAs someone who doesn’t like sports anime at all, I’d rather they keep a variety of anime types than more sports, I already don’t watch hunter or haikuu. I think they should have a spot go each genre and then go through them that way. So we maintain a variety of shows to watch
Aaron Wright
2023-10-17 18:52:38 +0000 UTCBlue Lock is great
Torben Brüggemann
2023-10-17 18:50:55 +0000 UTCI found it not very interesting story wise and the characters all terrible people, I bounced off after two episodes, I’d rather they watch more of the absolute classics, and maybe watch bluelock in the sports anime slot
Aaron Wright
2023-10-17 18:47:34 +0000 UTCI personally really liked it and think you would really enjoy it! As an alternative though, if you liked Haikyuu you might enjoy Kurokos Basketball - one of the most popular sports anime and it has an actual end. Characters all have their own specialities etc.
Jack2142
2023-10-17 18:47:23 +0000 UTCTo be honest I have zero, I’m currently only here for 86, so I’ll be around for that at least anyway. I have no interest whatsoever in sports anime. And I bounced right off bluelock, But you do you. I’d rather more 86 to get to the cool parts sooner but that’s me. I’d rather you wait till haiku is done since I already don’t watch that, or hxh
Aaron Wright

2023-10-17 18:37:45 +0000 UTCYou mean Frieren here right? Yeah I saw the trailer and read a short introduction of the story then I soon started to read the manga, I just couldn't believe no one ever explored such plot idea before, you just know there will be good stories

bebe
2023-10-17 18:23:44 +0000 UTCI'd prefer if you have more diverse shows instead another sports anime, so a mystery or a romance or comedy or horror... But at the end whatever you'll enjoy will be the most fun to watch.
AiraKT
2023-10-17 18:23:19 +0000 UTCBlue lock should have made it the better show, but the pacing let's it down. Ao Ashi doesn't aspire to the same heights but it's executed better. If you want intense shonen football watch Blue Lock, I find the premise a lot more entertaining as a big football fan. If you want a good based story about a teenager in middle school wanting to be a footballer watch Ao Ashi.
JGaffney90
2023-10-17 18:23:18 +0000 UTC100% the next sports anime has to be Blue Lock!!
Mike Donohue
2023-10-17 18:21:54 +0000 UTCI don’t ever want to be negative, but I wouldn’t recommend it. Not very good. No where near as great as Haikyuu
Floch
2023-10-17 18:18:57 +0000 UTCas a blue lock fan, i do not recommend u guys to watch the anime, it is very poorly directed and animated, the manga is much much better
Adriano Cabral
2023-10-17 18:14:11 +0000 UTCDiamond No Ace would be better but Blue Lock is fine :)
Kolja
2023-10-17 18:10:52 +0000 UTCYes I also like this part about Aoashi more than Blue Lock, but I think they need to work on their animation and the movement of the players. It's not that good in these aspects.

Jamel Cornish
2023-10-17 17:53:05 +0000 UTCyeah i think aoashi has that realistic but hype energy haukyuu has
민준 김
2023-10-17 17:52:00 +0000 UTCEhhh if you want something much more similar to Haikyuu i would much more strongly suggest Aoashi rather than Blue Lock. The themes and style is much more similar and realistic focused on soccer and not the unrealistic more "shonen-esc character powers" and setting/situation in blue lock. Blue Lock is not similar to Haikyuu really at all in the way its executed, while Aoashi is the comparison for a sorta Haikyuu soccer and much more character/team focused while diving deeper into how the game of football (soccer) is played and the aspirations of the players. Kuroko no Basket is also a great one for basketball on the other end of it, that's my feedback at least.
Toidleboy
2023-10-17 17:49:04 +0000 UTCAfter Haikyuu please! Watching two sports anime at the same time is not a good idea guys
Akhil Jonas
2023-10-17 17:35:17 +0000 UTCIkr, and I think it would be the first original anime that is not based on any manga or light novel on this channel? I could be wrong tho
Jason
2023-10-17 17:34:33 +0000 UTCIt's still nothing to lose your head over lol, calm down please. I only suggested it cos they seemed interested to start Blue Lock soon (I could be wrong though) and also I know people who like to watch different sports anime in parallel for the hype, myself being one of them.
Meg
2023-10-17 17:34:31 +0000 UTCohh lycoris recoil, that one was really good.
bebe
2023-10-17 17:31:19 +0000 UTCno no it's still ridiculous to even suggest that
bebe
2023-10-17 17:30:32 +0000 UTCI was just thinking you guys should watch Blue Lock after that most recent heated debate on the Haikyuu reaction! There would be tons of discussion about individual versus team that I think would be really fun. Ange would get really into it I'm sure.
Kolton Nay
2023-10-17 17:30:04 +0000 UTCRelax my friend it's just a suggestion, not an expectation. Nothing to lose your head over :)
Meg
2023-10-17 17:28:51 +0000 UTCWould love to see you guys react to Blue Lock! Especially when Ange plays football, I think he would pick up things even quicker than Haikyuu. Although I do agree Blue Lock should be replacing after you finish Haikyuu. The slot can be filled with a different genre to keep the variety in the period of time, there are still a lot of great anime to choose from. Death Note, Call of the Night, Lycoris Recoil, Frieren: Beyond Journey's End... etc. these are the anime I wish to watch your reaction that I can think of atm.
Jason
2023-10-17 17:27:08 +0000 UTCWould be awesome!

Queen
2023-10-17 17:08:53 +0000 UTCInstead of Blue Lock, I'd rather have you guys watch Food Wars 😂😂😂 Food Wars has the kind of competitiveness like that of Haikyuu Also I highly recommend Ace of Diamond. It's the best sports Anime (well, for me atleast) out there with no super powers or anything like that. It's Baseball btw.
Ordinary Guy
2023-10-17 17:07:07 +0000 UTCWould personally love to see ATLA

2023-10-17 17:05:43 +0000 UTCWould definitely be down for Blue Lock but I think watching it after Haikyu is better!! :)
emma
2023-10-17 17:04:32 +0000 UTCWould Skate the Infinity be considered sport?
Edmon
2023-10-17 17:01:41 +0000 UTCI totally understand that. As a manga reader tho, BL will definitely get better in later seasons
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 16:59:07 +0000 UTCHonestly, yes. If they have the time for more reactions, I'd rather they use it for more Haikyuu episodes to finish it up sooner and then move on to another (sports?) anime, rather than add another sports anime right now.
Zakki
2023-10-17 16:59:07 +0000 UTCThat's an awesome idea. Even if they're both about sports, Blue Lock has a pretty different tone about it and that will probably lead to some great conversations at the end. Ange mentioned in a video that football was his thing sports-wise, and due to how pumped up and competitive he gets, I think he would have a blast. It's meant to be hahaha Once you have seen some Blue Lock episodes, you start to realize that it's much deeper and clever than its "gimmick" would make you believe. I'm neurodivergent and what really got to me was the story's take on psychology and mastering your mind through conscious analysis. Also, it's a lot of fun. Hope you react to it!

2023-10-17 16:57:01 +0000 UTCterrible personalities lol yup
bebe
2023-10-17 16:56:44 +0000 UTCOverhyped. Not even the best football manga of this gen. Its fun, but nothing special. If you intend to keep a sports anime, Hajime no Ippo or Major are much much better choices.
Maxime Goettelmann
2023-10-17 16:56:27 +0000 UTCits not real tho?
bebe
2023-10-17 16:56:20 +0000 UTCIt’s pretty good actually But I suggest you watch Kuroko No Basket it has top-tier animation and so hyped man or Hajime no Ippo if u want to SMASH SOME SKULLS!
SoNono
2023-10-17 16:56:05 +0000 UTCI'd rather you watch it after haikyuu, honestly I think it would be nice to give yourself some breathing room as well, though of course you know that best. But I've seen other content creators go balls to the wall with content, only to get burnt out and stop uploading, which would be the worst case scenario.
StackCanary
2023-10-17 16:55:56 +0000 UTC100% watch Blue Lock

2023-10-17 16:55:35 +0000 UTCDO U THINK THEY WOULD STOP AT THE END OF S2 OF HAIKYU TO WATCH ANOTHER ANIME BEFORE S3? i dont think so. of all these cmmts, this one is the most nuts lmao
bebe
2023-10-17 16:55:00 +0000 UTCOmg why would you even suggest a break between Haikyuu S2 and S3? You crazy? 😭😭 3 episodes a week for a 24-episode anime (like they've been doing with Haikyuu) is literally 2 months. Nuh-uh lol they can watch Blue Lock after they finish up what they currently have on their plate 😭

2023-10-17 16:50:27 +0000 UTCGreat moments and also an engaging story. Not to mention the voice actors for Sukuna, Inosuke and Gojo being on it. Definitely a must watch
Nathan Kholamian
2023-10-17 16:50:00 +0000 UTCohh yea yuri on ice and also the other anime with group ice skating? F i am forgeting the name, it's good too
bebe
2023-10-17 16:49:50 +0000 UTCPersonally, I'm not the biggest fan of blue lock. Alot of the Characters have terrible personalities. But If you Two would like to watch it then, I say go for it
FatherWeeb
2023-10-17 16:49:37 +0000 UTCwe have other genres to enjoy non-realistic things. so yea, i prefer to watch sports with more realistic plays. for BL, after ep 1, i even went to read manga but it got boring in the long run and i still havent turn back to it.
bebe
2023-10-17 16:49:03 +0000 UTCAgree with the people saying to check out BL after finishing Haikyuu. If possible, use that extra time slot for more Haikyuu.
MADHOUSE
2023-10-17 16:48:46 +0000 UTCi'd prefer if they just watch haikyu more and start those animes after finishing haikyu
bebe
2023-10-17 16:47:02 +0000 UTCOHH SLIME MY TOP ISEKAI tho, really enjoyed it
bebe
2023-10-17 16:45:45 +0000 UTCAbsolutely down for it! I'm currently watching it as well. It's a hot cake for an anime on football
Amanda Sugatadasa
2023-10-17 16:44:41 +0000 UTCThe real football, much needed
Ygjez
2023-10-17 16:44:35 +0000 UTCLet’s go!!! Yes plz
Chewiebacca
2023-10-17 16:43:32 +0000 UTCAbsolutely down for anything from you guys ❤️
Callum
2023-10-17 16:42:09 +0000 UTCA SUGGESTION : why dont u double haikyu eps, finish it quick and then you can enjoy blue lock or any other sports anime because watching blue lock and kurokuno basket is fine because they are both sports anime with superpowers but watching haikyu and blue lock at the same time is A BIG ASS NO
bebe
2023-10-17 16:41:49 +0000 UTCOMG yes yes yes a thousand times yes! I would be so down for a Blue Lock reaction from you guys! Though I think it might be a good idea to watch it after you finish Haikyuu season 2 maybe? It's only 24 episodes so you could watch it after Haikyuu S2 and before you get to S3, or if you guys wanna watch it in parallel that works too. But yes, would absolutely love for you to react to it. It's quite different to the usual sports anime but I think you guys will love it (can already imagine Ange getting hyped by it xD)
Meg
2023-10-17 16:40:51 +0000 UTCyea i dont think it will hit as much as haikyu
bebe
2023-10-17 16:40:18 +0000 UTCOr you could start the Fate/Zero? Not a sports anime but that would be cool too 🥳
Danny
2023-10-17 16:39:14 +0000 UTCnah @cruel sun, the same shit old ME gmaeplay is what's boring, and football is still a team game irl
bebe
2023-10-17 16:38:54 +0000 UTCthe start is hyped indeed but the mentality repeatedly incited in it gets boring
bebe
2023-10-17 16:37:35 +0000 UTCBlue lock is hype. also kuroko no basket. Both shows are very hyped shows.
THanaaa Krit
2023-10-17 16:37:12 +0000 UTCI'd be interested but I'd personally want yall to start blue lock maybe after Haikyuu or once yall get closer to finishing Haikyuu
Carlos Cantu
2023-10-17 16:36:54 +0000 UTCYES!!! Blue Lock would be awesome!
Danny
2023-10-17 16:36:08 +0000 UTCHell yes!
BlackBeard
2023-10-17 16:35:48 +0000 UTCIf we're doing another sports anime, would much prefer Kuroko's Basketball!
AP
2023-10-17 16:35:02 +0000 UTCbecause i watched haikyu before BL, i would choose haikyu anytime, when you get joy of watching the teamwork accomplishments in haikyu, the plot in BL is kinda lacking for me
bebe
2023-10-17 16:33:28 +0000 UTCi would say ONE AFTER ANOTHER, not at the same time. both are very contradictory because one is focused on normal plays with teamwork centered but another one has opposite factors.it's gonna SPOIL THE MOOD and if u compare to each other which i dont want you to because they dont have any similarities except for being a sports anime. But if u want to enjoy them both of the time, i guess it cant be helped then, but please dont reduce the amount of haikyu eps per week. thats all i ask
bebe
2023-10-17 16:32:33 +0000 UTCIt's a pretty good show with a mix of superpowers.
Nasty
2023-10-17 16:31:01 +0000 UTCwe neeed faster HK reactions but Blue Lock is cool
Ricsson
2023-10-17 16:30:43 +0000 UTCI wouldn't mind Blue Lock reaction but I would recommend doing it after Haikyuu! That way you guys don't have to juggle too many shows simultaneously. I would love to have more reactions of Haikyuu per week if possible (but that could be due to my bias of Haikyuu 😂). Also, I think blue lock is a good show with just 1 season so far but it isn't something that I would highly recommend people to watch. Other sports anime I would recommend are Aoashi, Big Wind up, Ace of Diamonds and Hajimne no Ippo. But in my opinion Haikyuu is the best sports anime if not one of the top rated animes of all time 😊
Bibi
2023-10-17 16:29:16 +0000 UTCHonestly, I am not a big fan of all the weird unbelievable moves the players can do. Also, I wasn't really into blue lock until the last couple of episode.
Queen
2023-10-17 16:28:58 +0000 UTCHell yes blue lock is fire especially cuz I am a football fan and it has a unique take on football and I love it
mohamed rafee
2023-10-17 16:28:58 +0000 UTCAnge was legit practically quoting a lesson from Blue Lock in the most recent Haikyuu reaction about how Pro players think/feel. But be careful Carlie, it may unlock Ange’s football addiction even more. 😂
CastSenpai
2023-10-17 16:28:26 +0000 UTCi feel like they would really enjoy it though
alexis ♡︎
2023-10-17 16:27:55 +0000 UTCYes blue lock is cool
Kenju Storm
2023-10-17 16:27:39 +0000 UTC100% agree, I wanna see their reactions to BL
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 16:27:27 +0000 UTCMeh
JAMES D'ALESSANDRO
2023-10-17 16:27:24 +0000 UTCBlue lock is so damn good 😭
Elder Rivera
2023-10-17 16:27:18 +0000 UTCYES PLEASE OMFG
CastSenpai
2023-10-17 16:26:49 +0000 UTComg please do blue lock!!!
DandyZombie
2023-10-17 16:26:19 +0000 UTCI really recommend it because the characters are so well written even tho the anime only has 11 episodes, I think they would connect with them so much
Edmon
2023-10-17 16:26:04 +0000 UTComg i would actually loose my mind if they ever watch yuri on ice, only a few reactor have watched it
beannieswife
2023-10-17 16:25:33 +0000 UTCI would love to Watch it among with you . The animation is not that great but the story incredible. It is the best selling manga this Yeah and a Life changer. What is true for football is true in others Things
Erdanxela
2023-10-17 16:25:01 +0000 UTCWasn't my thing but I'd watch anything from you guys 🤷♀️
Thilde
2023-10-17 16:24:59 +0000 UTCIt lacks the team aspect on purpose. Bluelock is a critique on Japanese football after the World Cup in 2018. It aims to highlight the egos of superstar athletes which the Japanese football team at the time didn’t have.
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 16:24:30 +0000 UTCYessss
Nate Banker
2023-10-17 16:24:15 +0000 UTCI think it's a solid watch because it is different from the stereotypical sports anime. So keep in mind it is essentially polar opposites to Haikyuu. Still good but a different type of good.
Stephen Zdgiebloski
2023-10-17 16:23:57 +0000 UTCYesss
Zana
2023-10-17 16:23:35 +0000 UTCYesssssss
Zana
2023-10-17 16:23:20 +0000 UTCFor sure!
Tutty
2023-10-17 16:22:54 +0000 UTCI love KnB, I wish they could watch both. But after haikyuu, it would be interesting to see them react to BlueLock because it’s very different from a lot of sports anime
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 16:22:35 +0000 UTCYesssss. Please if you guys are hype now OMG Blue lock brings hype and the music is fire. Good characters to enjoy and starting now you’ll see some similarities in characters from Haikyuu
Ace B
2023-10-17 16:22:16 +0000 UTCOh my God yessss, Yuri on Ice is great! It would be great because it's short and sweet, so it wouldn't really take a spot on their schedule for too long.
Zakki
2023-10-17 16:22:09 +0000 UTCI would advise you to make a quick poll to gauge the interest better. :)
Nessa.
2023-10-17 16:21:08 +0000 UTCwanna state why its 'dog shit'?
Majoz
2023-10-17 16:21:01 +0000 UTCBluelock is supposed to be a critique of Japanese soccer and it explores the Egos that superstar athletes have. If you read the manga, you’ll find that in a very roundabout way, the selfish egos that are created in BlueLock actually facilitate a lot of teamwork. There are definitely flashy elements that you wouldn’t see irl, but I think it’s a great anime that looks into the mindsets of a lot of great athletes
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 16:20:51 +0000 UTCthey would like it 100%
Chrisiyyi
2023-10-17 16:20:49 +0000 UTCI wouldn't... But if you want to, go ahead, it's your channel : )
Nessa.
2023-10-17 16:19:58 +0000 UTCrly not similar except they both sports tho hh
Majoz
2023-10-17 16:19:51 +0000 UTCi didn't enjoy blue lock that much but maybe ya'll will, so if it gives you good vibes, try it!
beannieswife
2023-10-17 16:19:42 +0000 UTCI also love Kuroko but I don't think that they would enjoy it, especially after watching haikyuu
Edmon
2023-10-17 16:18:55 +0000 UTCso now anime has to be realistic to be good? blue lock is realistic? im sure there are people that can pull off every touch the on the ball like they do in the anime, ofcourse some of the shots arcs ar a bit too bendy, aoashi is good but i cant say it even competes with blue lock
Majoz
2023-10-17 16:18:54 +0000 UTCmy picture is out of Blue Lock, so yes, I would be very excited.
Nagi
2023-10-17 16:18:47 +0000 UTCHaven’t watched it but i’ll watch it if you guys react to it! Seems like a lot of people like it
Frida BØ
2023-10-17 16:18:38 +0000 UTCAn underrated sports anime is Run with the wind. Really good. Haven't watched Blue Lock.
Wectoz
2023-10-17 16:18:15 +0000 UTCYes also Kuroko no Basket
MOB12
2023-10-17 16:18:15 +0000 UTCif you start another sports anime i’d personally much prefer kuroko no basket :)
dani simone
2023-10-17 16:18:14 +0000 UTCYes
Iosua Valean
2023-10-17 16:17:43 +0000 UTCThe team aspect is what makes Haikyuu boring
Cruel Sun
2023-10-17 16:17:32 +0000 UTCSome background, BlueLock was created after the World Cup in 2018 and from what I’ve heard, it’s a critique on the Japanese football team and the mentality that Japanese have around sports. It aims to highlight the psychology of great players and the egos they have. Blue Lock is a great sports anime to watch next because it completely flips what you’ve been taught about teamwork all your life. It’s like a slap in the face and it explores the psyche that many superstar athletes (and anyone successful actually) have and showcases what separates a good player from a great player, and that’s their mindsets. The animation can be a little weird at times but if you can overlook that, BlueLock is an extremely enjoyable anime that critiques Japanese sports mentality and what a lot of us have been taught our whole lives.
LuciusArtoriusCastus
2023-10-17 16:17:18 +0000 UTCAnd then bluelock or hajime no ippo
Chrisiyyi
2023-10-17 16:17:15 +0000 UTCWrong, but the other shows are good too, kuruko no basket too
Chrisiyyi
2023-10-17 16:16:41 +0000 UTCHELL YES so much better than Haikyuu sorry not sorry
Cruel Sun
2023-10-17 16:16:28 +0000 UTCI liked it, but preffer kuruko no basket
Chrisiyyi
2023-10-17 16:16:11 +0000 UTCdon’t get me wrong, i like blue lock, but I think its pretty far from what soccer actually is and it’s missing the team spirit. It’s more like a hyped up squid game
johan wejdin
2023-10-17 16:15:41 +0000 UTCAgree with the blue lock after haikyu comments. BL not bad but I can’t imagine watching them at the same time as haikyu
EyePStanding
2023-10-17 16:15:40 +0000 UTCOmg please! It’s so good and crazy

Bob Loblaw
2023-10-17 16:14:57 +0000 UTCHonestly there are far better soccer/football animes, Blue Lock is good for like 3-4 episodes, and after that it's just dogshit. And that's coming from a Blue Lock manga lover.
ImZeaT
2023-10-17 16:14:50 +0000 UTCIf you want to watch a sport anime, I would recommend Yuri on Ice, is about Ice Skating and was one of Mappa's production before they blew up, is really short and I think that both of you would enjoy it. Oh and the characters are inspired on real athletes.
Edmon
2023-10-17 16:14:17 +0000 UTCAlso watch kuroko no basket, its one of my favorite ones, its a team and single player shining, a bit of a mix
Chrisiyyi
2023-10-17 16:13:58 +0000 UTCAs someone who performs in high-level sports I’d say Blue Lock is definitely the MOST realistic out of the sports anime I’ve seen, as far as it focuses on individuals more than a team’s success! It makes for an extremely exciting and dramatic watch and I couldn’t recommend it more
Adam Shah
2023-10-17 16:13:52 +0000 UTCI think it’ll ruin the experience of the other- I’ve seen it happen :\
le
2023-10-17 16:13:30 +0000 UTCWatch with us plssss
Chrisiyyi
2023-10-17 16:13:05 +0000 UTCI feel that they are better soccer animes than blue lock like aoashi. Aoashi is apparently more realistic.
Queen
2023-10-17 16:13:04 +0000 UTCBluelock is good
Kevin
2023-10-17 16:12:41 +0000 UTCexactly why they might wanna see them at the same time? they are counter opposites, if it was the same formula, then it would be to much
Majoz
2023-10-17 16:12:32 +0000 UTCHi guys. Blue Lock’s a fun watch, but a bit single note as the show wears on, and in the long run doesn’t carry the same pedigree as Haikyuu. My highest recommendation would go to Kuroko no Baske (a basketball anime) for your next sports viewing. It’s up there with Haikyuu but in different ways
Zarehl
2023-10-17 16:12:31 +0000 UTCDefinitely 💯. Blue lock has some of the loosest units in anime 😂
Kouey
2023-10-17 16:12:08 +0000 UTCBlue lock is fire
Luiz Doria
2023-10-17 16:11:48 +0000 UTCI personally loved Blue Lock, though I like the suggestion some people are making of waiting for after Haikyuu to watch. Just like Haikyuu is a mix of sports & slice of life, Blue Lock is a mix of sports and another genre (which I don’t want to spoil).
Leah
2023-10-17 16:11:44 +0000 UTCThere are so many others show worth a watch instead of this. Like others said, switch genres, go for isekai
Wick
2023-10-17 16:11:21 +0000 UTCblue lock is amazing, just know you guys would love that shit, its so good
Majoz
2023-10-17 16:11:11 +0000 UTCI think like I've seen some others say, I definitely think you should check it out, but I'd personally rather you do it after Haikyuu. Firstly, it will help with Haikyuu withdrawal. Second, if it's possible to do more Haikyuu in the week then I'll take that option every time. And thirdly, they are quite different shows, but they might be similar enough in terms of hype that I don't think you should waste that ALL at the same time. But if the choice is Blue Lock now or Blue Lock never, I say go for it!
Jordan Henry
2023-10-17 16:11:09 +0000 UTCYou guys should react to kuroko s basketball 🏀🏀

2023-10-17 16:10:39 +0000 UTCwhat? blue lock is sick? its totally a sports anime, what are you on about
Majoz
2023-10-17 16:10:31 +0000 UTCbut also if u guys are looking to switch up genres i really would like to see u guys react to an isekai. my number 1 rec for the genre is “that time i got reincarnated as a slime” it’s so good and honestly adorable and if you like OP characters you’d love it!!
alexis ♡︎
2023-10-17 16:10:12 +0000 UTCI would love to see your Blue Lock reaction! But you should do it in your tempo. If you have the capacities to handle another show, let's go for it!
OSL-Taubsi
2023-10-17 16:09:52 +0000 UTCBlue Lock isn't bad. I mean it's got some great animation. It's hard because i inevitably end up comparing other sports anime to Haikyuu. In that regard, Blue Lock doesn't really hold up. But without comparing it to Haikyui, it's not bad. I mean if you two reacted to it, I'd watch the reactions.
Smash Bran'Discootch
2023-10-17 16:09:25 +0000 UTCBlue lock is definitely a fun watch
Night Sterling
2023-10-17 16:08:54 +0000 UTCBlue Lock is fun to watch! I think you'll like it and it will make for a good reaction series as it has hype moments and badass characters. But overall, it's like an 8/10 anime. In real life, I like football much more than volleyball, but Blue Lock is not as good as Haikyuu. However, I think it will be very interesting to watch your reactions to it especially because Ange plays the game! The discussions will be nice :)
Aizensalami
2023-10-17 16:08:52 +0000 UTCFor your own enjoyment I would watch them at different times!
le
2023-10-17 16:08:49 +0000 UTCMobs almost done so just a little while more
Night Sterling
2023-10-17 16:08:33 +0000 UTCPersonally I would recommend watching it after Haikyuu I really don’t think watching them at the same time is a good idea because it’ll spoil your perception of the other. Blue lock will seem unrealistic or too dramatic when watching it at the same time as haikyuu or haikyuu may seem too tame and not dramatic enough- while I love them both they’re really not made to be watched at the same time as they’re two completely different ends of the sports anime spectrum
le
2023-10-17 16:08:30 +0000 UTCI think it depends on you guys. Coz you have quite a number of shows currently. Too many shows during a time period usually stress reactors out and that's when the quality declines. But in the end it depends on your schedule.
Daamon
2023-10-17 16:08:22 +0000 UTCIt’s the perfect counterpart to Haikyuu, also hide any tissue boxes in a 1km radius from Ange if u guys decide to watch it
RoZiiii
2023-10-17 16:08:13 +0000 UTCNot really that good of a show imo
Wick
2023-10-17 16:07:55 +0000 UTCI'm not into sports anime tbh so that'd be a no from me
KaijinGarou
2023-10-17 16:07:46 +0000 UTCBlue lock is pretty weird, not an actual sports anime imho. I much prefer Ace of diamond or Hajime no ippo but you do you
johan wejdin
2023-10-17 16:07:22 +0000 UTCBlue lock might not be as good as Haikyuu!! But you really won't find a show that generated hype in each and every episode as blue lock. Focuses a lot on individual than a team.. I am sure it will be quiet refreshing
Sid
2023-10-17 16:07:11 +0000 UTCI'd honestly rather have more Haikyuu eps per week instead of having Blue Lock added to the schedule now 😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️ you can always watch it later
Zakki
2023-10-17 16:07:06 +0000 UTCWould love to see you guys react to blue lock its litterally the definition of hype

Ryan Williams
2023-10-17 16:06:26 +0000 UTCI'd be down for Blue Lock, but maybe you still gonna wait for it a bit since it's likely that Season 2 comes out around Spring/Summer next year.
BDMax
2023-10-17 16:06:12 +0000 UTCok YES bc ange is super competitive and he played soccer but i will say it’s not on the level of haikyuu in many aspects

2023-10-17 16:03:38 +0000 UTCBlue lock not as good as Haikyuu and it lacks the “team” aspect of sports. But you might like it cuz it’s soccer
MrYinYang
2023-10-17 16:03:37 +0000 UTCPart of me wants to say, doing one sports anime at a time makes more sense, but on the other hand, Bluelock is a pretty amazing show and I would be 100% down for those reactions
