Synopsis:
The story begins with Japan's elimination from the 2018 FIFA World Cup, prompting the Japan Football Union to launch a program to search for high school players who will begin training for the 2022 World Cup. Isagi Yoichi , a striker, receives an invitation to this program shortly after his team missed out on the national championship. His coach, Ego Jinpachi , intends to "end Japan's failed football" by introducing a radical new training regime: isolating 300 young strikers in a prison-like institution called "Blue Lock" and putting them through rigorous training with the goal of creating "the best striker in the world."
The first season of the anime was written by Tetsuaki Watanabe at 8 Bit , and animated by Kenji Tanabe and Kento Totani . The manga debuted in Kodansha 's Weekly Shonen Magazine in August 2018, with authors Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Yusuke Nomura .
