Chapter 298 of the Blue Lock manga ended bitterly to Sixhiro Nagi. Trying to score without the help of Reo Mikage, the attacker hesitated and lost the ball to Meguru Bachira, who took advantage of the mistake and secured the victory of FC Barcha. Nagi failed, fell to 24th place in the ranking and left the Japanese selection project under-20.

The decision has impacted fans and prepares the ground for a chapter 299 loaded with tension and emotional twists. So far, Nagi showed coldness and disinterest in football, but his journey alongside Reo revealed a more involved and competitive side. The young striker demonstrated the change by being inspired by sports legends, such as Dennis Bergkamp.
Possible elimination can be a turning point, with the forecast that Nagi finally shows true emotions in the face of failure. The provisional title of the next chapter, Blue Tears (blue tears), promises to explore the psychological impact of defeat in depth.
Partnership between Nagi and Reo risks reaching the end in Blue Lock
The relationship between Reo Mikage and Sixhiro Nagi has always been one of the emotional pillars of the plot. Reo, who initially dreamed of winning the World Cup alone, changed his goals by meeting Nagi and wanted to reach the top next to his partner.
However, Nagi's recent failure may have put an end to this shared dream. Even being behind Nagi in the overall ranking, Reo proved to be more concerned with ensuring that his friend shone in the field.
With Nagi's imminent disqualification, the future of the pair is uncertain. Reo should react with intensity to the partner's removal, as he believed that the two would represent Japan together at the U-20 World Cup.
The next chapter of Blue Lock should show how Reo faces the frustration of seeing his crumbling plan even before the debut in the competition. This emotional turn promises to shake the group's structure and provoke changes in the course of the competition.
Jinpachi Ego must reveal the final values of the players auction
In addition to the eliminations, Blue Lock chapter 299 should bring strategic information on the final auction values promoted by Jinpachi ego. Although only the top 23 places have a guaranteed place in the U-20 National Team, the bids received by other players can keep their names in evidence.
The expectation is that some athletes, even outside the main call, will get contracts with professional clubs thanks to the visibility gained in the program.
Among the names that can benefit from this second chance is Igarashi Gurimi, known for its determination even without technical highlight. The dissemination of market values can change the destination of several players and keep the hope of return to the selection in the future alive.
The new chapter of Blue Lock, therefore, goes beyond Nagi's fall and points to a broader scenario of opportunities and restarts within the competitive universe of Blue Lock.
