what i also find really interesting, is sae definitely sees rin as a potential rival, but as rin is so fucking hung up on surpassing his brother, when it comes to opponents on his brother's level or higher, rin won't win. we are all seeing that rin is seeing sae as a "brother to surpass" rather than a "rival to surpass" and because of that, in this match he is almost at a standstill, hence why sae gave rin that piece of advice because breaking through rin's defense. rin says he is looking at the bigger picture, but is he? his obsession with beating his brother may have been a catalyst in the blue lock area, but outside, it is self destructive and holding him back.
so, i am really excited to see rin realise this and wake up because as much as i love him, his plays so far are a little embarrassing.








i can see i am not the only one who is ready for isagi to flip his switch and just go bloody berserk. im loving how we get to see all the other characters, but i need some isagi
I feel like he will once he realizes that one of his team mates is not up to the task or he gets angered by one of the U20 members
YES ME TOO
