Blue Lock season 2 will adapt the manga's Blue Lock vs. Japan U-20 arc (chapters 109-151), while also finishing off the previous season's Third Selec♕tion Arc.

First, let's get everyone up to speed: Blue Lock is a sports anime from Eight Bit that centres on Japan's hunt for their next star soccer player. The Blue L꧃ock Project brings together 300 of the country's most prodigious young talents – including Isagi, who fluffed a chance at taking his team to the Nationals thanks to his selfl🌠ess play – to help craft a selfish striker.

In the f🌜irst season, the players were pu𒁃t through their paces in various matches, with the program culminating in a selection of an eleven-man Blue Lock team to go up against Japan's U-20 squad. The winning side will, in effect, be Japan's U-20 side moving forward and will be able to shape Japan's football future to their liking.

You won't need to have seen Blue Lock's movie, titled Episode Nagi, before season 2 as it's a prequel to the main series – though it will help flesh out certain aspec𒊎ts of the anime in future and provide some much-needed context.

Blue Lock season 2 will consist of 14 episodes, a step down from the first season's 24 episodes𒀰.
