Blue Lock Plot

The story begins with the Japanese national team getting eliminated from the 2018 Fifa World Cup which leads the Japanese Football Union to start a program to scout high school students to train and prepare a team for the 2022 World Cup. To do so they hire Ego Jinpachi who introduces a radical new training regime.

Among many scouted high schoolers, our protagonist Isagi Youichi also receives the invite to this program. He is conflicted by his playing style and his greed for success after he loses a game-changer game after passing the goal to his not-so-skilled team-mate instead of making the goal himself. To get rid of this conflict and become the best soccer player in the world he decides to join the program. We see the young ambitious players working hard towards glory.
