As a seasoned gamer and ardent anime enthusiast who has witnessed the evolution of the industry since the days of VHS tapes, I must say that Blue Lock has undeniably taken the sports anime world by storm. This year alone, it’s been nothing short of a rollercoaster ride for this soccer-centric franchise, with its manga reigning supreme in sales and the successful release of the first movie, Blue Lock: Episode Nagi.
It’s tough to argue against the fact that “Blue Lock” has grown into not just one of the most popular sports anime in recent times but one of the biggest anime adaptations overall. In 2023, the manga held the top spot as Japan’s best-selling publication, demonstrating that this soccer anime is packing quite a punch. With the second season set to premiere this fall, the manga continues to thrive with new installments being published regularly. Regrettably, “Blue Lock” enthusiasts will have to be patient for the next chapter.
As a dedicated fan, I’m thrilled to share that we might be in for a treat this October, as Blue Lock is rumored to unveil its second season! But let me tell you, the year 2024 has been nothing short of spectacular for this sports anime phenomenon. Taking it to the next level, the franchise made its big-screen debut in Japan and North America with Blue Lock: Episode Nagi. This movie took a deep dive into another key character who became an integral part of the “Blue Lock experiment”. The film’s success at the box office was nothing short of global, as the anime genre continues to ride on its well-deserved wave of popularity.
Blue Lock’s Hiatus Explained
It was revealed by Weekly Shonen Magazine that Blue Lock’s creator, Nomura Yuusuke, will be taking a week off due to health concerns. This short break will delay the next installment by just one week, as the manga is set to return on August 28th. Despite the brief interruption, the series has no signs of wrapping up yet, so there’s plenty more content for the anime adaptation to cover in both its second season and beyond.
If you haven’t yet watched “Blue Lock”, its first season is now streaming on Crunchyroll. Here’s a brief summary of the series from the streaming service: After a disappointing loss at the 2018 World Cup, Japan’s soccer team is in disarray. The solution, it seems, is to find an exceptional striker. In response, the Football Union establishes Blue Lock – a demanding training ground for 300 of Japan’s most promising young players. To emerge victorious from this intense competition, the final player remaining must outperform and outmaneuver every competitor standing in his path!
