The official social media accounts of the hit soccer anime, BLUE LOCK, announced on Monday that the second season is coming this Fall, with an official premiere date set for October 2024.
The series is enjoying its time in the spotlight as a feature-length BLUE LOCK movie hit Japanese theatres on April 19, and is planned for a North American run starting on June 28, and it even saw a collaboration with Italian soccer supergiant, Inter Milan during the 2023/24 pre-season.
BLUE LOCK follows an initiative created by the Japanese Football Alliance (JFA) to find a striker who will be able to lead the national team to World Cup glory.
Three hundred high school soccer players are pitted against each other in a rigorous training regiment that will take the best and only the best, leaving the remainders' pro-soccer dreams in tatters.
It's an all-or-nothing program that seeks tobring out the very best of Japan's talent pool in order to usher in a new era in Japanese soccer.
