The first season, which aired between October 2022 and March 2023, had 24 episodes and adapted chapters 1 through 94 of the manga. However, the story covers the Introduction, First and Second Selection arcs, ending with the beginning of the Third Selection. Of the initial 300 players, only 35 remain. That's when Jinpachi Ego reveals the next challenge: a decisive game against the Japanese under-20 team. If they lose, the Blue Lock project ends; if they win, they become the new base of the national team.

The second season, which aired between October and December 2024 with 14 episodes, picked up exactly where the story left off. The players compete for spots on the final team to face the under-20 national team, now with Rin Itoshi facing his prodigy brother, Sae Itoshi. However, the anime ends with a 4-3 victory and introduces a new mystery: the "Wild Card," a secret competition for eliminated players, as well as the arrival of new rival Michael Kaiser, voiced by Mamoru Miyano.
