At the end of Season 1, we witnessed the match between The Top Five World Players and Isagi and Rin's team. Following that was the final announcement of the top 35 players from the Blue Lock project who advanced to the Third Selection.

In Season 2 which will pick up from Volume 12, a team of eleven players will be formed from the 35 who passed the second selection. They will face Japan U-20, which could potentially elevate the winning Blue Lock players to the new under-twenty team. The stakes of this match are higher than ever, as the closure of the Blue Lock Project hangs in the balance. The upcoming installment of the show promises exciting matches and impressive player techniques—exactly what we expect from Blue Lock.
