But that's because it's bit really a sport anime in the normal way, like it is literally a battle royal show or tournament show that use soccer as it goal. Not saying it's bad it is fire but like it such a different type of "sports anime" that it can't really be compared in the general way to alot of others. Like haikyuu is peak team sports anime, blue lock could be peak one on one competition anime but it's not going to change sports anime as a whole as so different from what really a true sports anime is
