A video about why Nagi had a downfall and why the upcoming Manshine vs FC Barcha game will lead to his re-awakening and ending with him winning by scoring a hattrick.
Nagi's ego is truly the identity of death and rebirth. Most likely death being the result of relying on Reo, and rebirth symbolizing nagi's rebirth solely relying on his creativity plus himself.

That's a cool interpretation, I've seen some others believe that too and wouldn't be shocked if it related to his ego. Although, his death ego does appear some times without Reo's involvement like in the 4v4 against Kiyora. Still very plausible though

I can actually see Nagi going through multiple deaths and rebirths. The first is relying on Reo too much, then he dies in his first and second loss, and then works with Isagi mitigating his weakness of limited soccer exp. He developed a ton and even outplayed Barou without Isagis assistance on multiple occasions. But then he dies again when he loses Isagi and has to rebuild himself again, which happens during the U20 game, when his adrenaline was at its peak during his first major match on the big screen. Then dies again during his first match of the NEL when he relies on Reo again. Nagis development feels like when you're naturally skilled in a fighting game. You easily go through the early challenges, but then you have to learn dodges. Then you win more, then you learn block timings, then combos, then mixups. Nagis development of death and rebirth feels like a videogame.

This might've been my favourite of your videos so far man, great stuff! You're absolutely right about the fun aspect being really central to his character. Also note how Isagi, especially in the NEL, has been learning to have more fun playing football the more he analyses etc, which was used as a form of contrast with Nagi who wasn't having fun playing creatively

You make some amazing points. I really was more of the opinion that Nagis development will take it's time and he will be subbed out for Nishioka for the Barcha match. I thought, we would see Nagis eventual development in the U20 arc since i didnt think Nagi has hit rock bottom yet, the way Barou mentioned it and he would have multiple chances to re-awaken his Ego. But the more you went into Nagis Ego being "Fun" I really started to love that idea more and more. I immediately thought of Bachira as well when you mentioned it. Both of them were codependent talents with sealed Egos. And Nagi telling Bachira off in the 2nd selection may come back now that Bachira truly came into his own. Also, now that you got me theorizing, Nagis story is about him becoming more "pro active", so him laying down his phone in order to play football would make an amazing last panel to finish the story - wrapping up his development (in Episode Nagi). Anyways, great analysis, enjoyed it a lot.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. My biggest issue with his downfall being delayed for the U20 world cup is simply because I just don't see why Ego would bother play him. Like Shidou, Rin, Barou, etc. All showed improvements and even though Nagi is amazing the others are currently better and so if he won't sub into any game he can't develop. Hoping Nishioka plays in the final game too and a spoiler for my next theory/vid we will see Nishioka in episode Nagi very soon (Reo 3v3).

I think what would help Reo flourish Nagi’s creativity is by giving him challenging passes instead of easy passes, that would also help Reo in creating different passes
@akiraendoji

Yep, similar. That's why I want a pass like Hiori and Isagi's supergoal; not a pass where Nagi wants but where both see the optimal play based on a vision. I think a big misconception is the fact when it's written for them to separate and not be co dependent people assume Reo can't pass to Nagi, but it's just Reo can't feed him lousy passes which is why I'm hoping for challenging passes too.

Same, would be great to see a combo between the two and see Reo break free. That being said, since Kuni didn't score I have my doubts Chigiri will. My other concern is that Reo's other struggle is that he thinks he may not survive and so him assisting Chigiri early in the match kinda breaks that tension. No matter the outcome though I'm excited for Nagi's development and the match.

so if the chart you made is correct that means that between the main story and episode nagi everyone except yuzu will get to have at least 1 on screen game garunteed the only other option people who could potentially not get an on screen game are haiji and sokura because there is no garuntee they will play in the manshine vs barcha game of course haiji has higher odds of being seen as he has already played where sokura still hasnt and sokura is the only barcha player without a bid still a little mad that thanks to ubers my intial predicition of everyone getting a bid is completely wrong but yuzu specifically has the highest chance of being completely screwed over with play time since pxg vs bastard is his last chance to appear in an on screen game and his odds of subbing in are looking real low to add to this the only people that have not played in an screen game yet are yuzu endoji tsunzaki haiji nishioka and sokura with tsunzaki and endoji choosing nagi's team for the u20 tryouts almost garuntees them on screen playtime and nishioka being on mashine and having a bid does garuntee his on screen playtime haiji and sokura are on barcha giving them a chance to appear in episode nagi as well leaving only yuzu without on screen playtime which is not impossible for him to get but the odds of him or endoji subbing into the pxg vs bastard game being close to 0 yuzu might end up as the most undeveloped character sorry that this comment seems unrelated i just noticed (because of the chart of people who have played with nagi) how close to everyone has had or will have a chance to appear on an on screen game by the time episode nagi finishes the NEL except yuzu
@akiraendoji
6 күн бұрын
Yep, by the chart it means Yuzu will be the only one to not play on screen which is why I think there's a small chance he will play in the PXG vs BM game. If Yuzu doesn't sub in, it's truly over for him unless they show all 5 3rd selection games. It's true neither Haiji or Sokura are guaranteed to play in the final game too but I think there's a chance we see both in episode Nagi anyway (since Sokura was against Reo and I have a hunch that Reo's upcoming 3v3 will be against Sokura, Haiji and Nishioka where I think their 4th player was Yuki who was taken against their match against Karasu's team).

I know this might sound crazy, but I low-key think that maybe Wanima could help Nagi out. Think about it! He was a player who always played alongside his brother and was only as good as he was due to a 50/50 split between his own skill and his brother's. Maybe his off-screen journey in the 2nd selection had something to do with him being too codependent and having to get used to not playing with someone like his brother, who he was linked with to an almost perfect degree. Though part of this theory is just my desire to see Kaneshiro do right by him since he is the only major player from an opposing team in the second selection who hasn't been given any attention, to the point I don't know why Kaneshiro even bothered to keep him around in the first place. Could've just introduced a worthless fodder character who never even gets to play if you're not gonna use him? *Blue Lock Episode Wanima spin off when?😂( Would be kinda cool to see Gagamaru and Raichi in the second selection though)

Wanima would give us more content as well, but those guys are all people whose backstory/ life we haven't gotten much of an insight into. Granted Shidou, I think, will still get one and maybe Karasu as well, but characters like Tokimitsu or Aryu really don't have much of a chance otherwise. Hell they could go all kinds of insane and give us Episode Tsunzaki or Saramadara or something. I'm mainly just salty that Wanima was wasted when giving him just a little bit of an arc to honour his status as an original stratum player, like the rest, would've been enough.

I don't think Nagi will come back in the Barcha game. Pregame he asks Reo again to give him a new fire - What initially seems like an evolution, is just furthering his regression. While Nagi still has the salary to flub this game, Reo needs to step up in order to survive. If he and Nagi stick together and don't separate, they'll fail to evolve, but if they do separate and Nagi scores a hat trick on his own, then Reo will probably not survive. What needs to happen is for Reo to work with someone else and even score his own goals. And on the other side, Bachira has been completely forgotten. He's one of the best players in the league, but since losing in the first round has gone completely unnoticed for the entire NEL. I think in this game he'll explode and earn a massive bid through his plays, and Barcha might even win the game. It's also possible that without Nagi taking the spotlight here, some other characters might be able to make the cut. Foe example imagine if something stupid happens and Reo works with Nishioka to score.
@akiraendoji

I just think Nagi needs to come back in this match or he simply won't play in the U20 world cup since Ego won't even sub him in and if he doesn't sub in he can't evolve. So he needs to at least develop or show something by the end of the match which is why I'm leading to Manshine winning. Reo assisting Chigiri is definitely a valid possibility but I'd personally still prefer if he assisted Nagi's final goal just so the suspense for Reo's elimination lasts the whole game and the final play can show they can work together just not co-dependently i.e. challenging passes and thinking properly. issue with Bachira is like you said, he's completely forgotten and at the same time he doesn't really need a hattrick or win. Everyone knows Bachira is amazing and even if he goes 0-4 he will play in the U20 world cup. Meanwhile Nagi's current perception is dreadful which is why he needs this victory more.
