Blue Lock The Movie Crunchyroll Release Date Set for Episode Nagi

The Blue Lock The Movie Crunchyroll release date has been announced for the upcoming streaming debut of the coming-of-age sports anime movie. It serves as a prequel to the hit anime series’ first season, which chronicles the origin story of fan-favorite character Seishirō Nagi.

“‘That’s a hassle.’ That was second-year high schooler Nagi Seishiro’s favorite phrase as he lived his dull life. Until Mikage Reo, a classmate who dreamed of winning the World Cup, discovered Nagi’s hidden skill, inspiring him to play soccer and share his outstanding talent,” reads the synopsis. “One day, he receives an invitation to the mysterious BLUE LOCK Project. What awaits him there is an encounter with the finest strikers assembled from across the country. Nagi’s dream of becoming the best, alongside Reo, will take this prodigy to a world he’s never known. A prodigy can only be shaped when someone discovers him….now, striker Nagi Seishiro’s incredible talent and persona will set the soccer world ablaze.”
