Blue Lock chapter 300 promises intense emotions by ending the second phase of the project. The spoilers point out that Sixhiro Nagi says goodbye to Reo Mikage, ending not only a partnership on the pitch, but also an emotional bond that marked their trajectory in the manga.
With the elimination of Nagi officially, the chapter shows the striker acknowledging that his dream was too small to survive in Blue Lock. He admits that he just wanted to continue playing football alongside Reo, which made him happy, but insufficient in the face of Ego Jinpachi project.
End of a pair who thrilled Blue Lock fans
Following, Nagi reveals that he does not regret having allied himself with the reo. Still, the doubt about what could have been if he had played alone against Bastard Munchen torments him. For him, scarier than failing as a player was the idea of losing Reo as a companion.
In a moment of vulnerability, Nagi apologizes for not finding a new purpose and having passed the ball instead of finishing. Reo, in turn, rejects the excuses and states that Nagi never made a mistake. According to him, Nagi only followed his dream, even without truly loving the sport.
Then Reo admits to blame for pressing his friend to strive more than he wanted. But it also recognizes that this has revealed a new side of Nagi: competitive, passionate, and willing to go beyond. For Nagi, these moments together were the greatest treasures of his life.
Despite this, he wonders if the meeting was really good. Perhaps if they had never known, Reo would have become stronger. In the end, Nagi ends the dream they both built together and asks Reo to continue alone.
Last request from Isagi and transition to new phase
Before leaving the field, Nagi walks towards Losers Gate - the gate for the project eliminated. At this moment, Yoichi Isagi shouts asking him not to abandon football. Nagi, in silence, follows his way and crosses the gate without looking back.
The scene officially marks the end of Neo Egoist League, the second phase of Blue Lock. As a result, the plot approaches the long-awaited under-20 World Cup, which is expected to gather the Japanese team survivors in a new stage of challenges.
The next chapter, titled Parade, must present the consequences of Nagi's elimination and start preparing the team for the international tournament. Expectations are expected to deal with the farewell and if Nagi will return at some point.
The relationship between the two, built over three hundred chapters, ends one of the most sensitive and complex plots of the manga. Nagi's farewell, at the same time bitter and mature, leaves deep marks on both his companions and readers.
