Guuuys, I really think Nagi is gonna be kicked out of Blue Lock

Look, I love the guy, but he's been set up to fail from the beginning.

Remember when, in Episode Nagi, he had that talk with Ego, and Nagi said he can easily visualize himself winning in that example scenario Ego had shared?

That's delusion right there.

He's a genius, yes, but he's pretty much a newbie to soccer as well. He still had a lot to learn, yet at that moment he was so over his head.

He's changed a lot since then, of course, but in the recent chapters, we see him dwindling down. Not to mention the recent philosophy of delusion vs confidence. We were so focused on Yukimiya for this, but Nagi was also right there!!!

Earlier, I made a brief post about how it is important to delineate between their dream and their ego, and how one's ego must be strong enough to support their dream. I am yet to go into detail on this but...

Nagi had achieved his dream of beating Isagi by relying, not on his own ego, but on Reo's. Reo's ego was strong enough to beat Isagi that one time.

Unless Nagi can clearly define his ego, there really will be no more miracles for him

Just a quick ramble about bllk chapter 254 and stuff related to MBTI:

The part when Isagi begins to explain in detail the two types of ego really piqued my interest because to me, it sounded a bit like cognitive functions-

"Self-Style" ego type ressembles/is based on Introverted Feeling (Fi). This function works by making internal and subjective analysis of things, which results in the user's personal values, and likes or dislikes. Later on, this results in motivation.

As this analysis is completely subjective, it doesn't always align with society's values or expectations.

Now, for the other type...

I would say this Extrovert Feeling (Fe) or Extrovert Thinking (Te), although I'm leaning more onto the first one. What both of these have in common is not focusing on one's own values or feelings when making decisions (unlike Fi). I think that Fe might be a better match since we're mostly talking about external values instead of logic.

Turns out that learning kanji and actually understanding handwritten kanji are two totally different things, huh

Conspiracy theory of the week

Although Isagi uses this example to explain what "self style" egoists think is most important, the attitudes displayed here are Isagi's own.

In short, Isagi is interested in and motivated to seek:

Love

Money

Art as a hobby

Video games as a hobby

He's not really bothered about:

Education

Fashion

Making friends or expanding his social circle (lmfao tell that to everyone in bllk, they can't get enough of him)

Finally, he dislikes and avoids baseball.

This is intended as a shitpost, but...

Me being me, I decided to find receipts 🫠 Canon is with me on this surprisingly, at least in some cases. From the wiki:

When it comes to education, Isagi's not into theory-heavy subjects like STEM. He also signals out art alongside PE as his favourite subject. Although he doesn't note art as a hobby, he does like football video games.

This is all we have on the romance front from the Egoist Bible. We also know he didn't receive any Valentine's Day chocolates prior to Blue Lock. 🥲 RIP Isagi's love life. I'm taking the diagram to mean Isagi sees himself wanting a relationship in future.

From this Reddit post of translations of Egoist Bible character polls:

It's not much, but neither Isagi or the others rank him as much of a studier. (I find it really funny that the characters think Rin and Sae are top-notch brainiacs, but that's outside the scope of this exercise).

Isagi's attitude towards fashion? I mean...

This is what the guy chose to wear on his one outing from football prison. 🙃 Nuff said.

My most tenuous evidence comes courtesy of the light novel. It revealed Isagi has unusually keen senses, particularly eyesight and hearing:

Going off this, baseball, with the crack of bats, frequent announcements and loud cheers, might be sensory overload for Isagi. Football must be less overwhelming, at least if you're a player?

The French scanlation of the chapter 254 diagram makes reference to baseball being 'too loud', which also guided my thinking on this.

While Isagi isn't outwardly materialistic in the same way Reo or Shidou are, it's not beyond his interest. I know he was staring at the bids because he's so hung up on beating Rin... but money comes into it too for Isagi. If only because, players with the highest bids = strikers with the most outstanding talent. It's a status symbol for him.

As for the friends thing? No evidence needed. Y'all know Isagi would throw each and every friend he has under the bus, if it gets him closer to being the top striker 💀

It doesn't mean he's not a nice person or antisocial. I interpret it as, being a social butterfly isn't something that drives Isagi. He's more interested in other pursuits.

This in-universe character polls say it well: Isagi's a good communicator, rather than someone with heaps of friends. His calm personality and insight draws people in, rather than him seeking out friends or followers.

So, yeah, end of the announcement?

[miriamstuff]

had a dream that Ladybug and Chat Noir were affected by some magic that made them share dreams every night, but they had no idea it was happening and thought they were just consistently having really lucid dreams about their partner, and both of them decided every night to just make out with each other in the dreamscape because "hey, it's a dream. it doesn't have to make sense. there are no consequences here. it's not like they'll find out"

[miriamstuff]

Pov your my friend you’ve never watched miraculous ladybug and you just get sent these
