BLUE LOCK (ブルーロック)

Well, you and me aren't the type of players who'll get picked if we lose.

We're in the same boat, aren't we?

You can't play it safe here.

If you do, you're done.

So let's crush each other, Isagi.

Our dreams are at stake.

Don't chicken out.

This is Blue Lock, you know?

Hey, Isagi.

Do you know why my team wanted to play you?

We thought we could beat you, Isagi.

Huh?

Isagi, let's stop him!

He passed?!

And back to me, shorty.

No chance.

He got us!

I wanna catch up with you geniuses.

It was saved! He didn't hit it with enough power!

Isagi, the second ball! We'll get it and counter!

Move!

Don't stand in my way!

Naruhaya and me are the same.

We're one step short!

Naruhaya's weapon gets him in behind the defense, but he can't finish.

My direct shot works in front of the goal, but I have no way of getting myself there.

We're average Joes with opposite problems.

The one who overcomes his own limitation first...

will win this game!

Episode 15

Devour

As annoying as it is, Naruhaya's right.

Isagi, you're not the type who's able to fight alone.

You're not a genius like Barou or Nagi.

Me and you...

We're both just average Joes.

I don't have a weapon I can use in a one-on-one situation

that'll put me on the level of Nagi and Barou.

If I'm not in the genius column,

there's no way I can become the best striker in the world.

Find it.

I have to find what I lack during this game.

Let's go, Isagi.

Time to make a comeback.

Yeah.

I don't want to flunk out of a place like this as an average Joe!

I'll try every single trick I can think of!

Dribbling isn't the only way to dominate a one-on-one situation!

If I can make it a two-on-one, even for a split second,

then even with my lack of pace, I might—

Not so fast, Mr. Average Joe!

I'll have to try another way.

What are you doing, Isagi?

Have it back.

All yours, Nagi!

Damn. I ended up relying on Nagi again.

But this isn't gonna help anything.

The game will continue with just the two of them.

At this rate, I'm never gonna manage...

to surpass these geniuses.

So, wait, is changing my tactics and actions not enough to find what I'm looking for?

Damn it!

I'm not letting it end here.

That would mean it's not my actions I need to change. It's my thoughts.

Don't get caught up in how I used to be.

Change can only begin when you tear down everything you were before.

That should do it.

Well, it didn't.

Nice, Nagi!

The second ball!

I got it! Now I can counter!

Isagi, behind you!

Huh?

I'm not losing to you one-on-one.

Naruhaya!

Just you watch, Isagi.

I win!

Not yet.

Give it your best shot, little man.

Come on.

To me, shorty!

Ah, damn. It's backs to the wall now.

If they score one more...

we lose.

Not to mention, that last play was huge.

If Naruhaya hadn't stolen the ball off me,

we could've tried to make a big comeback!

If I'd watched his movement, could I have prevented it?

No, he pressed me from behind, where I couldn't see him.

So, nope, there was no way I could've seen him coming.

After all, Naruhaya was in my blind spot.

My blind spot?

Wait. Hold on a minute.

Is Naruhaya always positioning himself where I can't see him?

If that's the case...

I see now!

Maybe I was wrong all along.

In soccer, one-on-ones don't just happen when you have the ball.

"Off the ball."

It's still a one-on-one even when you're not on the ball.

If I think of every move that's made on the field as part of one continuous one-on-one...

That goes against everything I've considered normal up to now!

Hey, Isagi.

Let's go.

Yeah!

I'll get a goal back.

I know now that Naruhaya's always trying to find my blind spot.

Go find a book on how the human eye works and learn something, you piece of trash.

I see. Rin was also taking advantage of my blind spot back then.

Isagi! To me!

I've found the new jigsaw pieces I need.

My blind spot and "off the ball."

I'll shove these new pieces into my brain, and overwrite my concept of soccer!

If it lets me win, I have no issue tearing down everything that makes me who I am.

I'll be reborn again and again!

Whoever scores next wins.

First, we need to get hold of the ball.

Hey, are you listening, Isagi?

Blind spot. Off the ball.

Blind spot. Off the ball.

Blind spot. Off the ball.

Hey, Isagi.

I need you to shut up, genius.

I'm about to get to the good part.

So tell me.

What motivates you so much?

Shut up, genius.

I'm about to get to the good part!

Okay, striker. I'll take that as, "We're gonna win."

Yeah.

Okay, is everyone ready?

Thank you for the food!

Thank you for the food!

Dumplings again?

Yum!

Hey, that was mine!

Don't fight and don't complain.

These are free dumplings Sis brought home from work.

I'll make lots of money with cryptocurrency when I grow up and escape this life.

I'm gonna be a happy bride!

Me, too!

I hate being poor.

Bro, what are you doing?

When the going gets tough, smile. The bad luck will disappear on its own.

C'mon, seriously?

Come on, everyone. Eat up.

Mom. Dad. It's already been two years since the accident.

We're doing fine.

It'll be okay, Sis.

When I become a pro soccer player,

I'll make lots of money and give you a life of luxury.

Then, I can...
