Blue Lock Anime Plot:
Because her colleagues only care about making a profit, JFA manager Anri Teieri recognizes when Japan is knocked out of the World Cup quarterfinals by Belgium, that her country’s football can no longer advance because her colleagues only care about making a profit.
As a result, she gave her blessing to Jinpachi Ego’s “Blue Lock” idea, in which 300 of Japan’s top high school football players would be selected and sent to a specialized academy. On the list is Yoichi Isagi, a high school national championship qualifier who dropped out because he lacked the confidence to score the equalizer and instead chose to transfer the ball to a teammate with less talent, who utterly failed.
