Tug

They at least gave tog 12 episodes

Lūthér Hölâyèãhmé

They dropped TOG cuz of the animation and started watching this lmao but hey I get it, I did the same except after episode 2 of this one I stopped

Sum1s0mewhere

Ok retard

Nero

Do you not understand what the word animation means or something? Fucking christ you are just arguing for the sake of it.

Jesse Gutierrez

please watch kuroko no basket as a trioooooo

hayden 💟

Let’s fxcking gooo animators got some sleep this week(ep4) 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Chef MellowD

I'm bummed it feels like the people who wanted it to look more like the manga got a monkey paw wish

Ranginald Vagel

I didn’t. And a lot of reactors didn’t see it bc they wanted to react to it

Travis James

Ok thank you

Travis James

Nah bro you know peak😭😭 I neeedd them to watch that

nerro91

I'll believe it when I see it cause this shit is horrendous

Kisuke01

You're a Goat only real ones

Kisuke01

Tbh I really dont mind the slideshow animation that much, the pacing and direction is still good and comprehensible. The story is still beeing told efficiently eventough sometimes its kinda hard to follow along whats actually happening on the field with these still images but yeah it sucks its like this. still its not terrible

TimmSchmimm

Inazuma eleven >>>

nerro91

Am I bugging or does isagi have the same eyes as loki from season one when he scored the goal.....

Mellow.grizzly

😂😂

sotonye ogan

at the end of the day its up to preference i fw bl story more cause im a huge soccer athlete but tog isnt bad at all its the first anime that got me into webtoons. I just think sports stories are more interesting. And right now they just are more interested in bl it seems, and regardless i saw way mroe hype for bl s2 than tog so there has to be something in bl story that ppl want to see more.

Indifferent Denji

It’s already been confirmed by some of the animators and Isagi’s subbed VA that the animation is gonna be crispy ALL season until the U-20 match. Running animation and way more detail WAS animated, but it was scrapped by the producers to fit the impossible schedule they set for the animators. 8Bit Studios higher ups need to fuckin pay for this shit.

Nico

It’s sad to see with ToG cause I’m all the way caught up with the webtoon, and I be reading each chapter alongside with the anime and the story adds up, and me personally I enjoy the animation BUT I could see what they’re saying where it could be better and it isn’t as good as season 1, so it sucks to see that it was dropped but I can understand why

xDestroyer

I'm sorry but was the ending shade at ToG😭. C'mon even if everything is that fucked up *not defending it*, story to story wise which is what they said, ToG is way more interesting than Blue Locks😭

Anon7524

You enjoy paying for shitty products?

Sughandi

At first I agree but then someone made a super valid point this was the #1 manga this is unacceptable all that budget money they got and they doing this making even more money is unacceptable 😭

FreshxEli Tv

Everyone is complaining about the animation…I say wait for the U-20 soccer match to see if that’s what they saved the animation for! There was a lot happening in the manga

Knight Philosophic

Looks like you are one of those people who think Konosuba's animation is bad because they don't have pretty and detailed faces The word is "animation"

Bart the Beard

Yuri on ice is so goated

Ash

It’s a cash grab due to how popular the manga became after S1. Shit crazy

DIOR

niggas just be using words for the sake of it and I hate this era of “you’re the problem if you don’t accept absolute trash” 🫤

DIOR

nigga how does dropping a show cuz the animation is ass have ANY correlation to being an incel?

near

LITERALLY bugged me when people said s1 was worse. Like did we watch the same show? S1 was not Capcut Lock 💀

near

Bro what is the committee thinking. Better animation = More views/money globally somebody on that committee wants this season 2 to fail :(

Kevin Man

I do very much and i think several scenes look better than S1 but thats just my opinion.

Nero

I don't know what to tell you man. It looks very very bad and is definitely worse than any scene from S1. If it doesn't bother your experience though then that's awesome, hope you enjoy it.

King of New York

oohh thats one of my favorite randomly stumbled on tv shows.

Tankakawade

Gg were cooked

Michael Kaiser

Brother i have been watching anime for over 20 years what are you talking about?

Nero

From a casual point of view it won't look at bad as it is from a longtime anime watcher

sotonye ogan

Them ig reels be killing me too at least a good outcome came of that😭

sotonye ogan

A Va from ninja kamui said the same shit along the line when things started faltering I wouldnt trust them cuz they bread is on the line too lol😂

sotonye ogan

Yo I think we’re cooked just based off of this posting from Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/BlueLock/comments/1g9gpe4/english_translation_animator_spoke_about_s2_bad/?rdt=49079

Lord Harambe

Na we’re cooked. Check this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/BlueLock/comments/1g9gpe4/english_translation_animator_spoke_about_s2_bad/?rdt=49079

Lord Harambe

Well damn yall I think the show’s cooked. Animator from S2E2 dropped out cus the committee cut out a lot of their animation just so they can rush it. Here’s a translated post from reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/BlueLock/comments/1g9gpe4/english_translation_animator_spoke_about_s2_bad/?rdt=49079

Lord Harambe

When will you guys start from?

Jamie

That would be lowkey dope

Devin B

I don't think they've ever said that

Cream_That_Corn

I actually agree with this point heavy Cam. This industry can be alot of pressure to live up to a preestablished piece of work. Guess that saying of "heavy is the he who wheres the crown" be true.

damion

Its not bad animation. Its a lack of animation that's the problem

Cream_That_Corn

Nope i hate bad animation and im not seeing it here.

Nero

you must have low standards. I'm not picky about animation and even I can see the production issues

Weiss Schnee

I must be watching a different show from other people, im not seeing anything wrong with the animation. If anything it looks better than season 1 in some parts.

Nero

Might be too late? Just remembering how Dandadan had their first 6 episodes leaked 3 months ago is making me think the studios might be too far along in production to make big changes once the episodes start airing. By the time feedback rolls in, they could already have multiple episodes locked in. But I guess complaining could still impact future seasons or even force the studio to fix issues late or mid season if the backlash is strong enough.

Joseph

Not me eating a snickers while Sheera said snickers veins!!! 😂😂😭😭😭😭 I will never unsee it!

Dréa

Agreeing with Vyzarde said and adding onto say the trio clearly love this show. Many people do, so that's why it's frustrating to see it animated so poorly/rushed. They want it to change and maybe it could. It's not them hate-watching or bored with the show (compared to how they got bored with Slime and poor animation), it's just them wanting the production to be better.

Nita - Kento's Widow

facts I'll be like gimme my shit back

Reckless Company

The tik tok roasts of the blue lock animations is actually hilarious, as a sporting anime a bad animations is hella annoying can u imagine watching a clipart and drag of a basketball anime it would be like wtf lol

Reckless Company

The movie for Nagi is out if y’all haven’t seen it

Devin Lester

YES! I suggested they react to that movie, too!

Earphone Jack

Japanese fans are literally praising the show and think it looks good I wouldn’t trust them for anything

DIOR

Why they doin the best selling manga like this mane

Nick

Complaining with every episode can actually change something, complaining is how a studio realized that they're doing something wrong.

Vyzarde

Roshi said in a stream they saw it in the theater I believe

Elizabeth Darby

Yuri on Ice duo reaction?🧐🥺

Elizabeth Darby

3 Words but sure

Vincent S Deluca

If they do two cours then there’s hope for improvement, it’s still enjoyable just frustrating hopefully it gets the glow up ragna crimson got part 2

Shinsui Kyo

Animation is even more crucial for a sports manga where the story literally relies on the movement of the characters. That's why the slideshow makes it 10 times worse

Tenroku

When Lupa said to give the man some budget I felt the desperation in his voice lol

Spriggz

Could argue that insufficient animation when dragged out for a while becomes poor animation tbr

DsWorldd •

I been thinking the same thing, Tower of God, Uzumaki, Blue lock. Jesus Christ😭

DsWorldd •

When are they gonna animate the show? It’s been still shots, speed lines, aura effects and cgi footballs for 3 eps straight😭

DsWorldd •

If y'all are not satisfied with the current animation y'all are free to drop the show nobody forces you to watch it if your time are so precious. complaining about that every episodes won't change anything.

Fethi

Funny enough ragna crimson was lowkey the same way with the animation to start then the season paused for a couple months and came back and the animation was 20X better, all the small details got super clean

Daylen

I mean budgeting your resources isn't just about money. It's also about how you utilize your staff and how much time you give them. But if they had more money they could hire more staff as well and streamline the process so it is about money at the end of the day.

Danny

Sheera: “just read the field with your eyes and move at the same time” “Well ex-fucking-cuse me” is all I thought after hearing her say that 😂

Goofyaah

Roshi, come on, give us Danmachi

N1ckv3n

Isagis VA recently confirmed that the animation in the U20 match is good. we have hope

Endo

nigga that's not how it works. u dont get Google Slides for like 6 episodes and then get good animation for like 1 ep. Nothing is even moving in some of these scenes, it's just the camera shaking

Yoxxhio

It's not even abt budget. There are tons of smaller series with amazing animation. It's all abt management and production. If they cooked with the u20 match then great. Maybe they were short staffed, maybe production was a nightmare so they focused only on that one match and cut their loses for everything else. But it has nothing to do with budget

Mika

Everyone saw it in theaters, it made 1 billion

Lūthér Hölâyèãhmé

Lupa a prophet

Donell Whitfield

If you guys didn’t see deadpool in theatres, pls react to it

Travis James

in the manga Rin didnt give Isagi his props for that goal, and Shidou legit attacks Rin for that lol

Nuke XD

I don't even watch this anime but my whole social media feed keeps talking about this poor animation and wow, I feel bad for blue lock fans.

Co

Hisoka got main character energy lol he diff not gettin kicked out

Johnwick

People crying about animation when its possible they saving budget for the actual match.

eastbaynick

2 words, The Wild Robot.

rYenis

im with you on this one brother

radeb

I disagree partially, there a difference between bad animation and insufficient animation.

Jazko

Peak cinema Mr Robot

Francky.V.

Why would they drop it? the story is still better then majority of the shows out this season and its not like the pacing, story, and animation are bad its just animation and the studio said majority of their time was spent on u20 and the movie so it was just poor time management. dropping a show out of pure bad animation and thats it is next level incel

Dylan Culbertson

I remember everyone was crying that season 1 animation was ass now s2 dropped everyone wanting s1 animation back me personally s1 animation was fine it was way above average for sports anime now days with the exceptions

Dylan Culbertson

they said majority of their time was spend on the actual U20 so hopefully the animation is like season 1 but honestly the animation isnt bad its just bad time management from the studio they did a movie and then U20 then started this I feel like if they didnt do the nagi movie which wasnt really needed they wouldve had so much more time and couldve given us the same consistent animation like season 1

Dylan Culbertson

Anime is a visual medium of storytelling. It’s animation is integral to the product just as the story is. What’s even worse is when the animation actively takes away from the story being presented. It’s like reading a book with spelling errors and bad grammar, or watching a movie with bad cinematography and effects.

e10

:(

Idk

Why shierra cook em like that😂@3:10

Kd

i think shidou is canon gay or bi

jamesnightblade

They did comment on this season apparently that they spent most of their time on the actual u20 instead of these eps and i reckon the movie ruined their time to do anything

Dylan Culbertson

I agree with Roshi on this. Because of how much I love Blue Lock I’ve definitely been one of the ones that’s been holding out hope that the animation gets better and trying to stay positive… but there is absolutely no excuse for the animation to be this bad for a series that’s as popular as this. The manga and this arc in particular was one of the highest selling manga of 2023. This arc in the manga is considered to be one of the best Sports arcs in all of sports anime and they’re just butchering this season’s adaptation!! I was so hype for this season but man I’m crushed and disappointed with how it’s been handled.

Marcell1980

you guys should watch twilight of the gods.

Flynn Hurren

That’s roses tinted glasses. Idk how anyone is surprised, I didn’t feel like it would go up or change much. Just one of those shows that is what it is.

Dirty_Oldman

shidou isnt getting kicked because he's already a member of the team as he's the number 2. The purpose is for everyone to show what they're made of. He said to not let anyone take you off your pedestal or whatever so of course shidou is gonna score whenever he gets a chance

Jaidin

I'm not as hopeful anymore cause of how shat on TOG was but, what else can I do but hope. And unlike TOG there wasn't much of a hard drop in quality. It's especially too early to really tell for me personally.

Keondodge

Animation doesn't have shit to do with budget and no studio would ever put out Newgrounds level animation for several episodes straight with the hope of retaining their audience long enough to actually animate the series properly.

Aaron Posey

I don't think people realize that this has nothing to do with "budget" and more to do with the competency of the staff, time and the creative vision of the director. Most studios don't have in-house personal staff but contractors and it looks as if they are looking to churn out quantity rather than focusing on giving a series the attention it needs to be good.

Aaron Posey

I remember I joked like 5 years ago and said if Chainsawman were to get adapted into an anime and whatever studio picked it up ruined it I would nuke them again. Luckily after putting it off for two years I watched it last month and it was legitimately better than I could have ever hoped for with a staff that seemingly loved the source material as much as I did. Forever thankful that I have yet to have a series I love be given this treatment.

Aaron Posey

It's still too early to say since this part doesn't matter compared to later part. Especially since the animation style they use is still similar to S1. It can get worse or better. But I'm just being optimistic since unlike TOG there was no hard drop.

Keondodge

I would be pissed if I was a mangaka and I finally get my series adapted and the studio puts out some bullshit like this.

Aaron Posey

Day 44 of my campaign for a Mr Robot reaction.

Josh

I mean, it's pretty much established since episode 2 that the animation will be like this for a minute, so why everyone sounds increasingly mad in comparison to last week? It wouldn't make any sense if it suddenly has good animation again, and the animation improvement, if any, would only happen at the start of the U20 match around episode 5 or 6. Now I'm not sure if it would be significantly better, just slightly better or just straight up the same. So you can temporarily stop watching it and wait for a couple of weeks to see if it will actually improves before making your decision to come back to watch the rest of the episodes or not. We went through Ninja Kamui and Uzumaki with them, so it couldn't get any worse. P.S. Hopefully this won't age badly 🤡

Victor

"Dick vein" I'm dead 😂😂

Ukaede

nah last time they had some ugly cg. I'm taking the clip art

Ash

I’m really hoping cus this happened to One Piece a lot where they have subpar animation and then goes all out for a couple of eps

Lord Harambe

Me too! Lmao

Lord Harambe

im inhaling so much copium i wanna believe that they are just saving 90% of the budget solely for u20 lets hope together

Syuri

Ts got me sick in particular cause the manga so damn cold it was literally the most selling manga in Japan this ain’t no lil shit throwaway series but it’s getting hoed soooo bad 😭 U20 got some of the nastiest moments too smh

DIOR

nah im still holding on to hope(im coping)

Diego

Yea y’all might wanna save those pauses when it comes to Shidou for later lol. To Sheera’s point, I understand her perspective but in my opinion good animation is needed just as much for a sports anime as it is for a battle anime. And miss me with that “This is no different from season one” bs. I’ve seen that dumbass take online way too much. You’re just saying shit just cause at that point. The characters actually moved in season one when it came to the matches instead of just being still frames for the majority like they are now

Nick Vaughn

Why is the animation like tht

jayyyyyk

Bleach ?

SupremeWark

I really hope that they are saving up budget for the U20 match. Haven’t read the manga that far yet but still hopeful. Please keep watching Roshi!

Lord Harambe

First cour was good enough and still at least we had animation compared to this slideshow bro

Tenroku

Bro what is happening with the animation? I agree with what Sheera’s saying but DAMN

Frederick

Y’all gon cope yourselves into a mental illness

DIOR

Please drop this shit the disservice they’re doing to the manga is even worse than Uzumaki unironically

DIOR

Not in every scene. They made up for it with some added cg scenes in part.

Dirty_Oldman

Last season wasn't "good" but it was certainly better than this lol. The characters actually moved

mitch anderson

That’s not how anime studios work they do good the whole season and certain parts of a episode they go all out this is trash and woo be the whole season with just hints of animation

Slim jimmy

Png Lock U20 match will be peak Adobe after effects budget

Davon Thomas

Did Roshi watch last season? Did he think last season was good? I rewatched it multiple times and it’s not even close to being good. Relax.

Dirty_Oldman

Watching a audio book the best explanation

Slim jimmy

I love how lupa hates shidou when rin straight up just uses other people to score he is not a team player either

Indifferent Denji

I was a bit dismissive cause I had niggas is my ear all day lol. But I get what you mean I think they just feel pressured to put it out to match the schedule and for it not to be forgotten in the abyss like some other unfortunate anime

CAM

Dan da Dan and one piece will save us form bad animation

Matthew Valdivia-Mendoza

Bro what has been happening with this anime year

King of New York

anybody know if they will or have already seen the BlueLock movie on Nagi and Reo? I think they should, it gave me a better appreciation for Reos character.

Fallen.1

No it's not dawg

King of New York

Oh by far it has the best moments so far

Indifferent Denji

Cam i get what your saying but you do sound a bit too dismissive. We're "spoiled" for wanting good consistent animation? We're not asking for peak were asking for a standard that was set by this studio as shown in the first season. Yes things happen and we understand, that's why we need to give grace in things like delays or shortened seasons because we understand things happen. At work if something important personally comes up and that causes a delay to your work you properly communicate that "something came up" you don't rush and put out a rushed or lower quality product just to say you got it done?

damion

in my opinion that shit was better than the u20 match peak arc

Michael Kaiser

1:14 oh they are gonna LOVE the NEL Arc lmao.

Indifferent Denji

The whole hand thing with Karasu isn't really illegal, football players are allowed to use their arms and bodies to shield the ball and outmuscle other players to a certain extent. It only becomes a real issue when you start straight up pushing people out of the way. Using your body to stifle other players is a big part of the game.

Mocha

Why tf is everyone freaking out, the budget is being saved for the U-20 match

Calvin Gomez

NO CAP.. I'ma need Lupa to sign up and apply to be the OFFICIAL Lance Reddick impersonator. 😆 He could even steal a TV role or two if he shaved the dreads lol

HIM

I get it doe im not even trinna sound arrogant but it’s just annoying when studio’s do shit like this for great manga’s specially

Michael Kaiser

And its honestly so sad, Blue lock is a great manga ong, i don't know why they do this man. They don't learn or what? i hope I'm mistaken and it has another explanation.

Juancina

Yeah the u20 match is cooked lol studio obsession with rushing shit needs to be studied it ain’t no race.

Fizzy

@michael thats not how business especially animation studios with a set schedule of what needs to come out works

Trey Milliner-Williams

hate when a studio is doin shit like this bruh, lets hope it doesn't get worse

speedy

Painkillers on Netflix. Recommended. Mr Robot please this year.

Wes App

Bro they not. That not how animation worj

Kingslord

Lmao not rlly it’s 2024… I don’t rlly wanna b that guy but this some 7th grade school presentation type animation if they needed more time they could’ve just delayed it a year or two for a better quality animation

Michael Kaiser

That's if they even made enough profits for this and anything else they're working on

CAM

This is one of my favorite anime

Syed Hamza Ali

Blue cock

원 지

I hope you guys don’t quit on this anime please watch the whole season I know it will be hard but please hold out

Syed Hamza Ali

Wouldn't the movie they released affect this as well? It was a cashgrab, surely it should've upheld the animation

SmittyWerbenjägermanjensen

Roshi spitting in the end discussion nd its really unfortunate cuz blue lock is a peak manga they doing this shit dirty

Michael Kaiser

Y'all been too spoiled lately and digressed in patience 🤦🏾‍♂️

CAM

Guys its the same studio that did “the time I got reincarnated as a slime” so most of their money went to that and its a small studio compared to the rest

CAM

It'll prob be slightly better on priority eps, but I doubt it's gonna be Haikyuu/Demon Slayer level sakuga. An animator who worked on ep2 actually talked about what happened with production, and how they literally left instead of continuing to work on eps 2-5 it was that bad behind the scenes. The bar is very low lmao, so maybe just quit the copium and see where it goes.

Ethan

its sad what they are doing to bluelock. I really enjoy the energy of the show but they hard drop the ball with the animation. You would think they would treat it more like a golden egg considering how popular it was in 2022/2023. Everyone is coping they are saving the budget for U20 because the Isagi VA said so, but I dont really believe it.

Martin Stopstalking

“Apparently”

Tenroku

Mah Boi Zlatan with the antennae on his head 😆 I enjoy every second of this shit, and that's all that matters!

Wsgyan

Feels like I'm watching those overly edited youtube shorts but for 20 mins 😂

Tremaine

I don't watch bluelock, and am simply being sarcastic here.

Themperor

Lupa the point of the Blue Lock project is to find strikers with a selfish mindset that can make things happen no matter what. The fact Shidou is acting like an asshole is actually good, now if he wasn't able to back up his personality with his skills then it would be a problem.

Devin B

Day 6 asking to watch Monster

Kd

If they got rid of additional time they beef up the animation

Y’all always saying ts but never giving any proof of the animation staff saying that

Honestly if I didn't read the manga beforehand I wouldn't be as hyped for what's next to come

Wsgyan

Yehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hasnain Khan

Yehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hasnain Khan

Don't worry everyone, they're actually saving time and budget to create the most beautiful thing you'll ever see, not just in your lifetime, but in existence when U20 comes! /jk

Themperor

The movements/motions were going back and forth between being fins and stiff. Aside from the mid animation, I still enjoyed the episode very much lol. I agree with what Sheera said, they don’t get a pass for putting out subpar animation, but at the very least you can still enjoy watching it and be entertained by it. That’s the seasons saving grace imo.

Earphone Jack

I still love this show despite the animation quality tbh. Maybe it helps I've read the manga, idk. I'm still heavily enjoying the anime.

MonarchXIII

I miss dungeon meshi :/
