Blue Lock Vol. 1

Blue Lock: The Ultimate Striker Challenge

After a crushing defeat at the 2018 World Cup, Japan’s national soccer team faces a critical question: What’s missing? The answer is clear—an unstoppable ace striker. To address this, the Football Union launches Blue Lock, an intense and cutthroat training program designed to forge the ultimate forward.

Three hundred of Japan’s most promising young players are thrown into a high-stakes battle royale where only the strongest, most ego-driven striker will survive. Each player must outwit, outplay, and outscore the competition to claim the top spot.

Will they rise to the challenge, or crumble under the pressure? For these players, it’s not just a game—it’s a fight for their future.
