As a medium, anime tends to be pretty action-packed or at the very least, emotionally charged and full of drama. After all, the animation style heavily relies on various cinematic camera effects to invoke a sense of urgency or theater. As a result, the stakes are consistently heightened, and some form of conflict is usually right around the corner. These circumstances are precisely what makes many anime series so engaging and noteworthy, and sports anime are no different. However, 8Bit’s Blue Lock deviates from the norm by not only including these aspects but also perfectly capturing the spirit of soccer.Soccer has often been described as “life itself,” and much like existence, it’s not always pretty. It makes sense for any television series trying to capture the intensity of “The Beautiful Game” to go beyond the sport itself to illustrate its perceived importance correctly, which is something that Blue Lock does splendidly. In short, there’s no arguing that Blue Lock isn’t a sports anime, but the way the series conveys its narrative makes it so much more, mainly since the title matches the game’s fervor and dualistic nature.Soccer’s extensive impact on the world has helped the sport become a catalyst that brings some of the most unexpected people in the world together. That said, Blue Lock’s narrative isn’t one that focuses on the idea of togetherness. It’s actually quite the opposite, and viewers are made aware of this from the series’ very first episode, “Dream.”
