BLUE LOCK Season 1

2022 38 Episodes Animation · Action & Adventure ⭐ 8/10

BLUE LOCK Season 1 is currently streaming on and , and it uses the format for more than just a visual hook. Across 1 season, the show has had time to find its rhythm and keep it. 632 viewers have already rated it on TMDB — the kind of consensus that does not happen by accident. Kazuki Ura brings more to the role than the format usually demands. Start it whenever you need something guaranteed to land.

BLUE LOCK Season 1 is not trying to be everything to everyone, and that focus is exactly what makes it work. BLUE LOCK Season 1 has the visual identity that makes it immediately recognisable, and the writing to back it up. Season 1 of BLUE LOCK includes 38 episodes. It aired from October 2022 to December 2024. This season stars Kazuki Ura, Tasuku Kaito and Yuki Ono. Kazuki Ura and Tasuku Kaito lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was aired in 2022. What makes BLUE LOCK Season 1 more than a curiosity is writing that would hold up in any format. It rarely drops the ball, and when it does, it recovers fast.

Genuinely enjoyable for a wide range of viewers, BLUE LOCK Season 1 treats animation as a delivery mechanism, not a limitation. If you have run out of similar titles to watch, this is a strong next pick. Short enough to finish in a weekend, substantial enough to feel satisfying. The writing operates at a level the format's reputation does not fully prepare you for. Adult animation that actually works for adults.

🎬 BLUE LOCK Season 1 — Episode Guide

Isagi Yoichi, a first-year forward, loses his chance for the Nationals because he has passed the ball to his fellow player in front of the goal. That's when he receives an invitation for Blue Lock. It's a facility to train one world's greatest striker out of 300 high-school-aged forwards so that Jap...

Kira is eliminated from Blue Lock, and with that, the first day at the Blue Lock that promises to create the greatest center forward in the world begins in Isagi Yoichi 's life.

Soccer's "Zero"

The first selection is the round-robin tournament of five teams of V, W, X, Y and Z in Building Five, with only top two teams being eligible to move forward. Isagi's Team Z, the lowest ranking team, plays against Team X. But because of the special rule that allows the top scorer of the team to proce...

Premonition and Intuition

Team Z was crushed by Team X, who centered the offensive play around egoistical yet skilled Barou. Responding to Ego's urge to "take up a weapon," the players discuss what their weapons are in preparation for the next match. However, Isagi struggles to identify what it is. Using "the smell of the go...

Isagi relies on "the smell of the goal," his raw instincts, to make a move, and it leads to the fierce battle of "reading" each other's hand with Team Y's playmaker, Niko Ikki. Isagi and Niko's battle as they both watch over the whole field and throw their ego at each other, brings them to the last ...

After the match with Team Y, Isagi's rank moved up, and he became the center of the team. The next match is against Team W, led by the Wanima twins. Their eye contact and impeccable combinations are hard to beat. They used to play in the same team as Chigiri Hyoma, and they use his past trauma to eg...

Because of Kuon’s betrayal, Team Z is faced with a desperate situation of playing 12-on-10, with the opponent knowing everything about their weapons and strategies. Even under such a circumstance, Team Z never gives up on the fight, and Isagi continues to believe in himself. Inspired by their passio...

The Formula for Goals

The Z team has only one game left to play, and it will decide the future of its members. While everyone seems to be nervous about the kickoff, Isagi is trying to find a way to score goals without anyone's help.

The match continues to leave Team Z scared of Nagi's abilities. However, one of the members is not scared, even though they are facing a soccer genius...?

Just the Way It Is

Each player unleashed their weapon and ego, and Team Z has caught up to a draw. They totally have the momentum of the game, but that has “awakened” Team V’s monster, Nagi. In the chain reaction to awakening, Isagi also learns to use his weapon and keeps fighting. The “heat” generated by the clashing...

The Final Piece

Team Z launches a final counter to try and win against Team V. Isagi is trying to find the last piece he needs to crack the formula to become a goal machine.

The Second Selection

With many dropouts, the "Blue Lock" project enters the second selection. A harsh second selection where former friends become rivals and former enemies become allies at a dizzying pace. There, Isagi meets Rin, the most powerful egoist ever, the younger brother of the genius Itoshi Sae, and the new B...

In this new stage of the second selection, the white team formed by Isagi, Nagi and Bachira will finally go against the top three in the ranking of the previous stage, running the risk of losing one of their three players if they lose the game. Still, the willingness to test their new skills against...

The Geniuses and the Average Joes

The loss of Bachira on his team makes Isagi very anxious about what his future with Nagi will be like. To make matters worse, the situation is now even more complex: the ideal would be to go against a weaker team, but that would mean taking a weaker player too, which would make it more difficult to ...

Isagi realizes that the conclusion of the match is in his and Naruhaya's hands. However, how will he go about beating Naruhaya? This will be a game that will not depend on genius players, but on "mediocre" players.

Barou joins Isagi and Nagi's team, already causing quite a stir with his conflicts with Nagi. Isagi is trying to see a way to mediate these two, which will be very complicated.

Isagi begins to realize that his former teammates made a great trio with Reo, making the best use of their own weapons. Now, he'll have to think about how he's going to get his much-desired "chemical reaction" with Nagi and Barou, if not, he won't be able to win. That said, the Barou remain not very...

The Stage for the Lead

By understanding and enhancing each other’s weapons, Isagi and Nagi are drawing countless paths to the goal. In contrast, with Chigiri, who has further evolved, at the center, Kunigami and Reo find themselves struggling to keep up, and a back-and-forth battle unfolds on the field. Meanwhile, Barou, ...

Isagi and his friends barely manage to win as Barou awakens as the "villain" of the field. In order to cause a further "chemical reaction", they take away the only player who showed their ego to "eat" themselves and advance to the force stage. On the other hand, Bachira, who is looking for an oppone...

Super Link-Up Play

Finally, Isagi and Nagi are going to have a rematch with Rin's team. However, adding Bachira to Rin's team will bring some unforeseen circumstances.
