In the next issue of Weekly Shounen Magazine , the manga Blue Lock by authors Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Yuusuke Nomura will receive an important announcement . Fans speculate it may be an anime adaptation of the manga.
In addition, the most recent chapter will receive a color page.
Synopsis:
The story begins with Japan's elimination from the 2018 FIFA World Cup, prompting the Japan Football Union to initiate a program to scout 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 misses the chance to go to the Nationals because he passed to his less skilled teammate – who missed – without attempting to score the decisive goal himself.
Their coach will be Ego Jinpachi, who intends to "end Japan's failing 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."
Finally, the work has been published by Kodansha since August 2018. The last two volumes published by the publisher were the 11th in October 2020, followed by the 12th in December. The work has surpassed 3 million copies in circulation, including digital copies.
