It was a fun video with appropriate jabs at other teams' cities. That being said, the production value takes a huge step up with each subsequent video. Nothing against Joey Bosa, but the Chargers outdid themselves in the following five years.
This was another unique take on a schedule release from the Chargers' team, transporting players, coaches and more into the world of Minecraft. This used a variety of methods to show which team would be up next, including snow-capped mountains for the Minnesota Vikings and a Flint & Steelers mine for Pittsburgh.
This video also took its chance to poke fun at other franchises, including Will Levis memes for the Titans and tush push references for the Eagles.
4. Anime Reveal Sequel (2023)
A reveal so nice, they did it twice. In 2023, the Chargers doubled down on the original anime schedule release, this time with a few more jokes at the other teams' expense.
This included references to then-Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel vaping and a "rebuild-a-bear" workshop for a struggling Chicago team.
The Chargers once again returned to the video game-themed release video this year, through the video game, HALO. They also used this formatting to craft some jokes at other teams' expense, through friend requests and direct messages.
The social team also took a few slights in this video, notably a friend request from "gethigher77" during the Texans matchup. This is a nod to the account that some have speculated is a burner for the Rockets' Kevin Durant.
Another slight was taken at Patriots' head coach Mike Vrabel during the Week 12 matchup reveal. A message in the bottom right corner read "NY Post sent you a message," a nod to the publication who posted the initial Vrabel-Russini photos.
Highlights in this release include a Travis Kelce avatar recording his podcast when a Taylor Swift avatar knocked on the window and the hurt pride of Ohioans after citing Cincinnati as a city in Kentucky.
This was the highest production quality of any reveal for the Chargers at the time. They revealed their 2022 schedule through an anime style introduction, complete with traditional music and references to both anime and team drama.
Some of these references included the One Piece pirate flag for the Raiders and a section in Week 6 against the Browns that read "redacted on advice of our lawyers," a reference to Deshaun Watson's sexual misconduct charges.
