The Story
A mad young coach gathers soccer players from across the
country to compete in a series of bizarre challenges in a high-tech colosseum
he calls Blue Lock. It's a no-balls-barred battle to become Japan's next top
striker, in this Squid Game–meets–World Cup manga, now available in
print!
Anime airing now!
COULD YOU GET DOWN TO WORK?
Isagi has finally scored his own goal in the Neo-Egoist League, courtesy of his
newly unveiled "side weapon," the lefty direct shot. Yet this is no
time to get complacent. Italy's master, Snuffy, immediately brings his tactical
genius to bear in Ubers' counterattack, but Barou chafes against his philosophy
of soccer as "work."
Meanwhile, Niko, Kaiser, and Aiku all turn their own specialized weapons on Isagi as they seek to knock him down a peg. Ready, set...duel!
