Otakus who are ardent followers of football have already grown a quick liking to the series because of how different the title is from other sports series. The series has easily toppled its competitor,Haikyuu, without even dropping a sweat.

However, that’s not all because greatness followed it, as it was different from previous football titles, which brings forward the best of new and old worlds. The series now returns with a second season that has got the fans on their tiptoes as the unique show with a never-before-seen plot that continues the hunt for the ultimate striker!

Muneyuki Kaneshiro’sBlue Lockis truly an ultimate piece of work that breaks past the preconceived notions of how football is a team sport and that greatness lies in winning as a team. However, the series features the greatest strikers in the world, like Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Marco Van Basten, Kylian Mbappé, and many more who are the greatest egoists in the world.

As a result, during the 2022 Qatar World Cup, the series gained a massive boost in popularity, especially with how well Japan defeated some of the giants like Germany and Spain. The series promotes the idea of teamwork, but every player must thrive as an individual to become the best striker.

The series features modern football tactics, where pace plays an important role in the games. The series also features old-school flair with flawless dribbling that would make the viewers glue their eyes to the screen.

With top-notch vision and skill moves that highlight the individual skills of the player, the series is a must-watch for every football fan. As a result,Blue Lockis returning with a second season that will feature 14 episodes and be more exhilarating than the first.

Blue Lock might just ruin the sports genre

In the trailer, the next phase for the selection of the phase of the project would take place, which will feature more heart-racing scenes and drama that is followed by heartbreak.

Additionally, the trailer features new faces with plenty of impressive moves that will prove why the sports anime is so popular. However, everything might just end as 8Bit Studios is behind the production, which might just kill the overall progress that the other sports titles have made over the year.

Fans Are Disappointed to WatchBlue Lock’sSecond Season

With plenty of sports anime series likeSlam Dunk, Inazume XI, Burning Kabbadi,and many more, only two names have left a lasting impact on the viewers:AoashiandHaikyu.The titles are the best of both worlds, where the former is the best title that tells the narrative of a young player becoming the best soccer player.

On the other hand,Haikyutells the story of Hinata, as he aspires to become the greatest volleyball player just like his idol, Tenma Udai, nicknamed the Small Giant.Blue Lockbrings the best of both worlds with a unique twist and originality that resonates very well among its fans.

But with 8Bit Studios behind the production of the title of the second season, the excitement faded away, especially with how mediocre the trailer for the series looked. Thesocial mediaexploded with negative comments following the trailer as fans hated the guts of the studio. They commented,

This shit looking like a PowerPoint presentationhttps://t.co/foTVooDnNl

If it’s a slideshow then i am done 🤦pic.twitter.com/4YFQ0qOdtB

We waited for this shi*y animation 😭😭

The leaks were true about its production 😭

Dam they gonna really gonna fumble the best new gen arc 😭

One of the greatest sports matches actually gonna get buttfucked by the adaptation. If this was the case then I wish Blue lock never even got an anime

The trailer looked immensely disappointing, as the animation felt quite static, that does injustice to the idea the show features. However, if the plot is strong enough, then the fans might just ignore the poor work that the studio did with their favorite series.

Blue Lockcan be streamed on Crunchyroll. The second season launches on October 5th, 2024.
