“Blue Lock” is a soccer manga by Kaneshiro Muneyuki (original story) and Nomura Yusuke (manga) that has been serialized in “Weekly Shonen Magazine” since 2018. Set in the “Blue Lock (Blue Jail)” project to nurture strikers who will lead Japan to the World Cup championship. The story depicts a group of 300 high school students, all of whom are professional soccer players, who are kicking each other off the field in an attempt to become “strikers full of egoism”.
The original work has sold more than 21.5 million copies as of February 2023, and has attracted many fans, winning the 45th Kodansha Manga Award in the Juvenile Division. A TV anime has been airing since October 2022, and the first stage adaptation of the title will be staged in May 2023.
