2. Recap of Episode 6 of Blue Lock

In Blue Lock Season 2, Episode 6, “The Grand Stage,” the tension reaches a boiling point as the Blue Lock players step up to face Japan’s elite U-20 squad. The episode opens with some team drama: U-20 captain Oliver Aiku tells Sae Itoshi about ongoing issues with their ace, Shuto Sendo, who had another clash with Ryusei Shido.

Aiku wants Shido out, hoping to keep things smooth and really put Sae’s skills to the test. Sae agrees but makes it clear he’s there to perform—it’s up to the rest of the team to meet his level.

As game day arrives, the stadium is packed, mostly with fans excited to see the U-20 team, particularly Sae. Yoichi Isagi’s parents are there, amazed at how far their son has come since starting in Blue Lock.

Fifteen minutes before kickoff, coach Jinpachi Ego meets with the Blue Lock team to confirm their lineup and strategy, with everyone buzzing over the news that Shido won’t start for the U-20 team. As both teams walk onto the field, Aiku warns Yoichi about Shido’s absence, while goalkeeper Gin Gagamaru nervously introduces himself to his U-20 counterpart.

With the whistle blown, Blue Lock opens with a bold offensive, using a 4-5-1 formation designed by Ego that can dynamically shift into a 3-6-1 “Nitro” attack mode. Side-backs Meguru Bachira and Hyoma Chigiri move up to press, giving Blue Lock flexibility and keeping U-20 on their toes.

Bachira breaks through first, showing off his dribbling, and sends the ball to Yoichi, who lines up a shot—only for Aiku to intercept, shutting down the play with surprising speed. Aiku tells Yoichi that strikers are like “thieves,” while defenders are the “police” who protect the goal, firing up Yoichi’s resolve to break through this challenge and find his “flow” on the field.

3. Speculation for Episode 7 of Blue Lock

In the next episodes, we’re likely to see Blue Lock’s team digging deep to challenge Japan’s U-20 stars. Yoichi and his teammates will be looking for any opening in Aiku’s tough defense, all while striving to reach their peak “flow” state.

Tensions on the U-20 side, especially with Shido benched, might add an edge, and Sae’s arrogance could mean he’s planning to shake things up. Expect intense rivalries, big plays, and a high-stakes fight to see if Blue Lock can truly prove themselves on Japan’s biggest stage.

4. About Blue Lock

Blue Lock is a Japanese manga series written by Muneyuki Kaneshiro and illustrated by Yusuke Nomura. It has been serialized in Kodansha’s Weekly Shōnen Magazine since August 2018. Blue Lock won the 45th Kodansha Manga Award in the shōnen category in 2021.

The story begins with Japan’s elimination from the 2018 FIFA World Cup, which prompts the Japanese Football Union to start a program scouting high school players who will begin training in preparation for the 2022 Cup.

Isagi Youichi, a forward, receives an invitation to this program soon after his team loses the chance to go to Nationals because he passed to his less-skilled teammate.

Their coach will be Ego Jinpachi, who intends to “destroy Japanese loser football” by introducing a radical new training regimen: isolate 300 young strikers in a prison-like institution called “Blue Lock”.
