Loki and nagi

Rereading some parts of the manga I can’t be the only one who thinks nagi will be pivotal In the finals. He’s exactly what Hugo is looking for a natural born number 1 and fits perfectly, you also have the dynamic between Loki and nagi which I always saw run and isagi vs Loki as a place holder for nagi and that nagi would be the main rival for that rematch against France. And the collab that just drops only adds to that more which I think will continue on as I could easily see nagi going towards the French league.

Nagi whole thing is about beating the best being the centre of the world and being the best player in the world. All of that is currently what Loki is and has at the moment. Plus the parrels and dynamic possibilities for there characters
