Description
The story begins with Japan’s elimination from the 2018 FIFA World Cup, which prompts the Japanese Football Union to start a programme scouting high school players who will begin training in preparation for the 2022 Cup. Isagi Youichi, a forward, receives an invitation to this programme soon after his team loses the chance to go to Nationals because he passed to his less-skilled teammate – who missed – without trying to make the game-changing goal by himself. Their coach will be Ego Jinpachi, who intends to “destroy Japanese loser football” by introducing a radical new training regimen: isolate 300 young forwards in a prison-like institution called “Blue Lock” and put them through rigorous training aimed at creating “the world’s greatest egotist striker.”

"Blue Lock" is a sports manga series that focuses on the story of a group of talented young soccer players who are selected to join the Blue Lock project, a unique training program designed to create the perfect striker for the Japanese national team.
In the manga, the Blue Lock project is set up in a large, isolated prison-like facility. The facility is surrounded by a high wall and has a number of watchtowers and security cameras to prevent anyone from escaping. The project is led by a former professional soccer player named Ego Jinpachi, who believes that the traditional soccer training methods are ineffective in producing world-class strikers.
The inmates of Blue Lock are all talented young soccer players, who have been scouted from across Japan based on their abilities as strikers. The goal of the project is to create a single perfect striker who can win games on their own. To achieve this goal, the inmates are put through a rigorous and intense training program, which involves competing against each other to earn points and advance through the levels of the program.
The training at Blue Lock is designed to be highly competitive and isolating, with the goal of pushing each player to their limits and forcing them to develop their own unique style of play. The players are also closely monitored and evaluated by the coaching staff, who use advanced analytics and data analysis to determine each player's strengths and weaknesses.
In summary, Blue Lock is a fictional soccer training program in the form of a prison-like facility, designed to create the perfect striker for the Japanese national team. The players are put through a highly competitive and isolating training program, with the goal of pushing them to their limits and developing their own unique style of play.
