How Ego changed my life (Blue Lock - Jinpachi Ego) 

PREVIOUS BLUE LOCK VIDEO: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eb68aq0EZig.html NEW DISCORD: discord.gg/8xkPxSykK7 It's finally here, hope people don't mind the stock footage too much, I would have loved to just use clips but c0pyright yknow. What anime would you guys like to see next?

Another lesson in blue lock is taking risks and avoiding complacency to improve yourself. The skills that was enough for them to win the previous match wasn't enough to win the next.

When I first watched the first few episodes I started being more selfish when I played soccer. I have gotten way better, and I am scoring more

Like Chigiri said If it broke then so be it! Thats a motto to live a life!!!

"His joy would come first above everything else" was an eye opener. I laughed when I heard you say those words. Not in a mocking way, but a way of "Crap, I have put myself so low to what I could be. My joy is never first, it's usually someone else I care about more than me." It made me realize what truly is wrong with myself. Thanks for the videos man.

When I watch this show, I learned that rather than denying ego, destroy it, and then improve it. The best way to destroy ego is to experience losing, then a much better ego will born from it

I really never thought that a sports anime would care so much about ego, yet implement it so well! I kinda think i should start to give my self a bit of an ego boost. I haven't really been in that many crappy situations, but it does get really annoying when people are passive-aggressive, or just straight up rude to me, and i feel like i just have to take that, without saying anything. I know you'll reach your 30k sub goal, just keep pushing.

Exactly right. Ego is essential. Many ppl get that wrong nowadays

Fascinatingly, you point out that this is not about anyone else or comparing ourselves with others. This is about reaching your own highest potential. It is a one-player game. And it is found when you stop looking at anyone else at all. And just look “up”. That is not “ego”. The stuff of the other “too far” people in this anime. That is simply pure aspiration and understanding of yourself.

I’ve always Been Told i was never gonna achieve anything and laughed at whenever i tried, and overtime i completely lost My ego. Like, why even try? I’ll just get laughed at for even attempting to play the sport, or solve the math problem. I’ve started being more selfish. An example is whenever we play football, Im always told to be goalkeeper or defender, When i want to get better and be able to score. Now whenever they ask me to play GK i just tell Them “No. I want to play, i want to be better. Im always GK or defender meanwhile you have fun scoring goals. Even if i don’t score, i atleast want to play”

Exactly, having ego or confidence is frowned upon. No wonder for half my life I wasnt happy as I am now. It all came full circle too, it all just made sense. Its chaotic but thats the thrill. Talk your shit and do your best to walk that talk. Risk becoming a clown n choose violence. Throw away your common sense and be reborn.

This has done more to boost my self-confidence and drive for success than ANYTHING the red-pill community has put out.

Watching this video for the first time when you're near the precipice of your goal is crazy, keep up the great work!

Ive been binging your videos all night. I needed this man. And i really appreciate this channel.

You get a well deserved sub, keep up the content man, you got this. 🗿

I literally have no interest in football, but this is still my favorite anime of 2022 and is probably gonna go in my top ten. I've gone ahead in the manga and damn blue lock is so good. It's definitely made me a better version of myself. a bit of ego is honestly important

I really wish I discovered you sooner I've gone through such hard times and your videos have changed me thank you!!! Your videos are awesome keep going

Almost at 50k bro. Congrats, please dont stop with the content

One of the priorities i find when trying to follow what you truly aspire to be is to completely let go of the "what ifs" that drag you down, instead of thinking "what if I fail" think "what if I stay the same?", "What if I succeed?", "What if this fear that I feel is what's holding me back from the future that I seek?" Let that what ifs motivate you. Let them push you forward. Not hold you back.

It’s so cool to hear other people using Blue Lock as a template to self-improve! I wish we had more media like it. I think my big take away from the anime so far is in the first episode where Yoichi chooses to go after a challenge than an easy victory. I’ve had a creative block for awhile, but i’ve been slowly able to get through it by doing little challenges for myself and it’s helped a lot. Something about Chigiri’s story that’s so interesting is how later in the anime, he talks to Nagi about his leg. He claims that every time he runs, he does it like its the last time he’ll run. That way, if he does hurt his leg again, he’ll have no regrets. I recently applied that to a situation to motivate me to live by my new values. I have lingering anxiety, but I don’t have regret. Feels much better.

Great video. Im going through a bad chapter in my life but your videos and Blue lock have helped me push through

My myy i just finished this show and now i understand i never had an ego since it got killed by my step mom from childhood. I sat back and laughed at myself. I missed so many opportunities in life because i expected people to do them since they're better and i was always called complacent. Damn 😅 i badly wanted to please people. But now i get it. Surprisingly anime taught me this 👍🏿. This video came at the right time

Hey man, I just found out about your channel and watched all of your videos. The last 2, in particular, helped me with a situation where -now- I kind of don't know who is or isn't with me. 2022 was a shitty year, but after your video, I decided to act. Thanks, man. I will grow my ego back

So ego is like the confidence and capacity to take action? Also good luck to 30,000!

Brother, I love the way you are thinking and changing. Blue Lock has also changed my vision on life. And when i saw the name of your account, i thought you already had more than a million subs, but i was happy to see that you have 1.67k, because now i get to see in real time what an 'ego' will get you, because i know you will explode on youtube! I will watch your other video's soon enough Stay Hard!

I can’t even lie but low key this anime has got to be one of the best sports anime to date. This anime literally made me a fan of soccer now I would even go as far as put it up there with attack on titan idk man this anime just hit different and grabs your attention like no other 10/10

I too have seen egoism as a way to grow after seeing blue lock it taught me that the key to victory is yourself not another, and seeing isagi in recent manga chapter's i saw that he couldn't do it alone but rather then giving up and thinking he is below his allies he used them for his own goal. So what i mean is that i aspire to be egoistic and not to see others strong points as obstacles but as tools after all they might be the tool i use to win

i think a lot of time people look at egos as something disrespectful towards other but you can build a respectful yet strong EGO. not a weak EGO thats disrespectful towards others

Good to know I'm not the only one who this anime helped out!

Good Luck on being popular! Amazing video

I think we have left out (to use the anime's symbolism) a crucial piece of the puzzle in the equation to success here: ability. Self-confidence, or ego, is a good and necessary thing, no doubt about that. But it needs to be accompanied and firmly founded in something undeniable or unshakable, otherwise it's just empty positive thinking with its feet firmly planted in mid-air. And it is only a matter of time before the lies of self-doubt start to creep in again when the rubber meets the road. You used Chigiri as an example, and said his ego (or self-confidence) came from "wanting to be the best and carry on doing what he loves". I respectfully beg to differ; it actually came from his undeniable track record as a player with exceptional speed. His strong desire to be the best striker acted as the trigger to help him break the chains, but it would have meant nothing if he did not have the chops to back it up. In fact, all the players in Blue Lock have a weapon; none of them are weapon-less. That's what they could base their ego on at the start, and then they developed themselves from there. To use an analogy, a Kia Picanto will never be able to perform like a F1 race car, no matter how much positive thinking or ego or self-confidence on the part of the driver. For Chigiri, it was a case of a driver with self-doubt driving a F1 car really slowly. But the moment he regained his confidence, he floored the pedal and the F1 car took off. Ultimately, you still need to back up your ego with something, be it a past track record, a new training plan or system, new equipment or gear, or even money. Yes, the confidence or ego is important, but it has to be able to give a good answer when life asks: "And what makes you think you can do that?"

Love your channel man

YEEEEEEESSSSSSS!!! This video is SPOT ON!!! In 2019 My teacher told me something I'll never forget. She said "Jelani, you need just a little bit of an ego." I didn't understand what she meant till I watched some hyped up show about soccer! LOL. I've always been exceptional, academically, physically, socially. But I never felt like I was worth any of it. I didn't feel it for myself, I didn't allow myself to break free of the self imposed chains of a false reality. For whatever reason, I thought I was less than. Pretty much the same ability as Barou but the opposite mentality. My reality couldn't be further from the truth. Now my every desire is to be the absolute best I can be. To do the impossible. To feel in every fiber of my being my own importance and worth. Dude this is the best video I've ever watched breaking down the core philosophy of this show. Confidence, self worth, a drive to do the impossible, that faith in yourself. Go for your goal bro! I'm here to support.

Honestly, I believe there's a mindset for every area in life, depending on what you wanna achieve. In soccer I found this one to be spot on. Some people say it's childish but I find it more childish to think that "the magic of friendship" is gonna carry you to victory.

Beautifully said👏🏾

I will start watching Blue Lock now, never been into sports anime, but this one caught my eye. Great video my friend.

Amazing video man, I will be watching your amazing growth from now on :) Keep going!!!

Congrats on 30k

Almost at the goal keep going

thank you for the video

Good balance of ego is something that is decently hard to achieve, but definitely something people should focus on Good video 👍

You earned yourself a subscriber king 👑

It’s 2024 and you have almost 60,000 subscribers, double what your goal was

You did it!!!!! 30,000 subs, Congrats!

Im impressed and i loved this video!

I had watched 5 episodes of the show, and listened to all the rest of your Blue Lock lessons, when I came to this final video wondering: How do I find my weapon? And this final video answered it for me

I just subscribed bro now you're almost 30k. Good luck man!

In the end of the year I'm gonna flex i found your channel before 1000 subs man, keep it up

I knew i have to stand up for myself these days but i kept letting terrible jokes at my expense, i realised why i was so happy last year. Its because i stopped caring if they liked me or not, i knew that but that fear of rejection seeped into my life at the end of 2022. Now i understand, its okay to be selfish

This series hooked me on the trailer and got me to read the manga right after two episodes and as i kept going i got the impression of the ego that jinpachi was trying to teach them was something of the lines of "if you think you are the best you will be" which is something that i put into practice a few times in my day to day life even if it's not in athletics it gives this drive to become something more than your past self and to disregard others if it meant self improvement or potential victory in the challenges you might have. well that's my take at least

You earned yourself a subscriber. Keep going!!

Ego is a very important part of all of us but at the same time it shouldn't be taken to the extreme. I went to something similar to you where I was picked on untill I snapped and turned into a bully myself a proper A class asshole. My point being both of the extremes are bad the middle is the optimal place to be imo. Also good luck with hitting 30k I'm sure you'll hit it as long as you're consistent. You've got this 💪.

your literally one of the mc's keep it up

You'll do it. Trust in the process and trust in yourself. That's what ego is also about.

I was a weirdo in middle school and made myself the most egotistical asshole, I didn’t understand how I was meant to master my pride until I watched blue lock

bro you make banger content, hold up while I watch your entire library

People slander the ego because they hate successful people who take care of themselves.

I want to be the best striker out of all my friends and also I want to be the top student in my class, that's my ego. Most of my friends tell me I'm not good enough or not that smart, but who cares. My goals are not theirs, they are all solely mine and I'll do whatever it takes to achieve it. I'm slowly getting better at football and is actually getting a good grade for the subject that I'm extremely weak at which is maths. I'll continue to drive myself forward in life thanks to this life-changing anime. Edit : and hey I guess you already achieved what you wanted which is 30k subs so congrats man. 👏

Blue lock is the anime not only teach you about ego but it also teaches you to become the main character of your story. Become the best version of you. Do what you do, Don’t listen to anyone that turn you down and listen to the love ones like family. But most of all. Always act up and do what it is needed. No one else will do it besides you so that is my ego. The main character ego😂

Dunno. my biggest problem is that I have no friends outside of my relatives, so... while it didn't make me more of a shut-in nerd, blue lock was never and is never gonna be much more than an exciting popcorn manga to me.

Legit... thanks to this Series.. I've decided to get my But up and move... unleash your egos..🙌🏻💯🙇🏽‍♂️

u got this g

Got my Sub, After watching several of your videos this is the first time I noticed you had only 500 Subs, thought you had like 100k or so. Good Luck on your Journey, I will comment on each video to boost you for the YT algorithm

Keep it up king

I liked your ego, good luck and you have my sub you will get big :)

I started applying these to valorant ever since i watched blue lock and i went from being a mid tier player to almost always being team mvp, what makes it feel better too is i dont play nearly enough to warrant how well i do, i started the season off at bronze 1, and in one day i reached silver 2

another banger

Let's be the egoist our Hearts desire us to be

ego is just like another adjective, people associate it with negativity for some reason. we’re quite opposite since I, and other people around me, believe that i can pull off crazy things yet i never have good enough motivation to do any of it. I don’t like being average tho so maybe one day i’ll enter my blue lock arc

I play soccer in the states and I kid you not. Jinpachi Ego’s speech legitimately changed the way I play soccer for the better

will check out thanks ,

really cool concept for a channel, you have a sub, and i hope you reach your goal.

i am 50/50 i do what my ego wants me to be... a bully(verbally) or to look down on everybody else. Because thats what gives me joy in school and no one will pick a fight on me because they are afraid. But I do sometimes act for others who will just take it for granted i dont know why so I act more selfishly. Lying to my friends that I dont have money when we eat in mall. But I find more fun is taking revenge without my enemy knowing it feels so good. I sometimes do prank to my classmates without them knowing example of this is when i have tic tac and i go to toilet and i do crazy things by first putting each bean in my nose i will then spit on it and then lastly piss on it and wait for it to dry and put them back to the container and give to my classmates.

i think that too

Great video 📹 👍

Me realizing you used Haikyuu's 'Confrontation with the (Grand)King' 😮 Good video!❤

Follow ego no fear

I hate being sidelined. I need ego. I need hunger constantly

This reminds me how Food Wars - Shokugeki no Soma expressed the same theme by expressing two characters. Soma and Megumi Soma was arrogant, he was focused on his goal and didn't see that much whats around him. He never for a second thought about crashing dreams of others. However, his arrogance gave him huge confidence, concentration and creativity all skills necessary to succeed. Megumi was always nice to others. Trying very hard to not offend others. However all of that made her timid as a result she had too many doubts and extra thoughts. Because of that she had very low concentration, and stress made her fail many times. Even though she worked hard, it was more of effortless self-torture that didn't lead anything as she lacked confidence was too low, because she didn't put her ego in it Over time she managed to develop her ego, so that she could survive in academy Mayumi was basically same as Megumi. Except due to never developing her ego she completely went into shadow. She never managed to tell Soma her feelings for him, and he forgot about her.

I hope you go beyond your goals this year and get your 30k subs ⚡

"Balance is a lie sold to you by people who want to put you down because they're average" -Iman Gadzhi This quote perfectly explains the mindsets of people who disagree with Ego Jinpachi's philosophy, they were never woke (for lack of a better term) enough to admit that they're just mediocre which lead to them losing their egos and ambitions, thinking to themselves only the chosen ones deserve to be on top, and that without luck or outside help they'll never become the best, even the mechanisms of luck was explained by Ego and how egoism and action can be what propels you towards good luck, it's even in the name of what we're all striving for "Self Improvement" it's ourselves we need to fix first because we can never truly change others, we can only change ourselves (Isagi also quoted this) so reject Ego's philosophy because of sayings like "Teamwork makes the dream work" or "Two is stronger than one" is just a temporary cope for people whose egos aren't big enough to put trust in themselves and ironically their ego is too big to accept that a man who preaches ego more than teamwork is partially right and they're partially wrong.

You dropped a hell of a bomb at 0:45

i only really have an ego in football. anything else im sorta just a loser. i wanna change that but tbh idrk how. i tell myself to have an ego but i know that just telling myself wont do anything and that i need to change my actions but idek what i need to change

naw this changed my life fr

holy cow earned by sub keep it up!

One more subscriber in the Count.

Bruh when i start playing football with my ego i ended up shooting the ball to my friends nuts

You’ll get to 30k

Everyone should strive to be like barou

alright bros time for this boy to stop being hard stuck silver and to hit immortal 3

I was cheated on, with one of my bfs and at the same time i Lost My whole friend group around 10 yrs down the drain. Only 1 of those Friends was an actual mature and adult person, he tried explaining to me my lcack of ego and self worth, so he recommended Blue Lock and i'm working towards My comeback

I HAD THR EXACT SAME REALIZATION 😭

Late comment but watching Barou go through despair and doubling down on himself made me turn it all around. It isn’t me that is wrong it’s everything around me. That’s why I hate everyone’s opinion that doesn’t make sense. It’s because it doesn’t make sense it doesn’t apply to me. I am right and I need to take my path, MY WAY. Blue Lock literally changed my life. It’s fucking insane to say that.

Fucking beautiful!

I would love to see Chigiri getting injured again. As much as i love the "better die trying than to not trying" trope it isn't as simple as that. Our body are still human and can break. Realistically if a player like chigiri started to play again at 100% all the time, he would get a injury down the line. And that can mean the end of his carrer. Once that happens how do you navigate through that? Finally accept the bittersweet truth that you will never be able to reach it? but, hey, at least you tried. Or keep dragging yourself to the field while you have no chance to ever run decent again. Or do you just choose to change your goal and start pursuing something else? This a question i would like to see some perspective on.

please make more videos about blue lock and class of superiority

I find myself both agreeing and disagreeing with your perspective, as it touches on a complex interplay between right and wrong. While I typically refrain from commenting, I believe ego holds significance, particularly in certain circumstances. It becomes crucial when striving to surpass personal limits or when faced with adversity, where one's sense of self-worth becomes paramount. There are moments when you must assert yourself, confidently proclaiming your ability to exceed expectations and overcome challenges with unwavering determination. As an athlete, I often draw upon this aspect of ego, especially in intense basketball games. While I maintain humility, there are instances when being down by a considerable margin and sensing a loss of morale among teammates necessitates a bold display of self-assurance. In such moments, ego becomes a driving force, eclipsing mere confidence and humility.

Well you'll reach 30k.. I subbed too.. keep on content like this..

RAAAAAAAAAH good video

709th sub ❤
