   Summary

   Poor ant.

   If you had told the Nagi Seishiro from before Blue Lock, that he’d passionately dedicate himself to playing soccer and find genuine pleasure in getting better… Yeah, he’d probably walk away in case the crazy was contagious. And yet, his current state felt as natural to him as pupation likely did to a caterpillar. Unlearned and unforeseen, yet anticipated by the very genes forming its body all the same. As if he had always carried this passion within himself, dormant and waiting for a suitable object to inflame it. Isagi’s soccer did just that. Isagi did that.

   Is it Isagi specifically that brings out the worst in you?
