Reo Mikage/Relationships

## Team V

### Seishiro Nagi

The two of them met in high school when Reo accidentally bumped into Nagi who was sitting on the stairs playing a game on his phone. Nagi's phone slipped out of his hands and Reo was immediately taken aback when Nagi saved his phone by jumping off the stairs without stumbling and resuming playing his game. When Reo found out that Nagi has never played football, he was surprised and wanted to encourage him to play with him, and that they even might become pros. However, Nagi was reluctant to play and put effort in practicing, which made Reo want him even more (parallel to his desire to want something he cannot easily obtain). Reo thought he had natural talent and tried to convince him to play with him on the team. Nagi gave in and they eventually ended up playing together.

Upon being in Bluelock, Reo is seen respecting Nagi, very protective of him and making sure he was not physically hurt during matches, he defends Nagi whenever he skipped practice. He also gives him piggyback rides, buys him food, adopting a very motherly attitude with him.

#### Team Z vs Team Y

Kuon tells Team Z that Team Y is in a similar situation with them. Like Team Z, if Team Y loses, they will be up for elimination and unable to recover. Also, Kuon warns the team to watch out for Hibiki Okawa, rank 254.

   During the spirited match between Team Z and Team Y, Isagi noticed that Okawa has not been moving for some time. Then, suddenly, Okawa moved. Okawa was precisely waiting for the right time to attack. Isagi concluded that Team Z was able to attack only because Team Y allowed them to attack. All this time, Okawa was waiting for Niko to give him a signal to attack.

   Okawa, in possession of the ball, runs towards the goal. Isagi believes that Team Z fell into Team Y's trap. Iemon, new to the position of goalkeeper, failed to block Okawa's pass. This inexperience inevitably resulted in Okawa scoring a goal. The score is now 1-0.

To avoid another goal by Team Y, Team Z decided on having two players mark Okawa. Isagi deduced that Team Y's tactic was to hold out and wait for the perfect opportunity to strike. Isagi believes that to defeat Team Y, they must stop Okawa from scoring.

Several minutes passed, but Team Z still has not made any breakthrough. In the middle of the fierce match, Isagi realizes that he was wrong. Not just mistaken, the whole Team Z was tricked. Isagi learned that it wasn't Okawa who they need to keep watch of. Instead, it was Niko pulling all the shots for Team Y. The core of Team Y was Niko, not Okawa. Niko has been maintaining Team Y's defensive and offensive stability. Niko has been Team Y's secret leader.

Several minutes have passed, and only a minute is left before the game comes to an end. Niko tells Isagi that it is almost time for Team Y's last resort. To prepare for any instance of a tie, Team Y made a defensive revenge tactic. The signal for this is when Okawa takes possession of the ball. Also, unlike in the previous plays, everyone from Team Y will attack with everything they got.

With only a minute left, every player from both teams went on an all-out attack. This one minute is the last chance for both teams. Since everyone in Team Y will be on the offensive, Team Z is having difficulty defending. Fortunately for Team Y, Niko has the ball. Although Niko is in front of Iemon, Niko chose to pass to Okawa instead. Before the ball reached Okawa, Isagi stops it with his leg.

Isagi notes that Niko always sends the ball to Okawa since he emits the goal scent more than anyone. Since Isagi and Niko have similar weapons, they had the same train of thought towards Okawa. Isagi then informs Niko that this is his and Team Z's win. Isagi considered Niko as a talentless striker for passing at a critical moment.

After Isagi scored, the buzzer rang, signaling the end of the match. The speaker announced the win of Team Z and the loss of Team Y. After the announcement, players from Team Y lie on the floor exhausted and frustrated about their loss.

Ryosuke Kira/Synopsis

History • Introduction Arc

## History

Before Blue Lock, Ryousuke Kira is a second-year forward playing for Matsukaze Kokuo High School. He is shown playing against Yoichi Isagi. After Isagi's teammate failed to get a goal, Ryousuke Kira countered the ball. He successfully kicked the ball, leading to the win of his team and the loss of Isagi's. The match ended with a score of 2-0.

## Introduction Arc

Much like every player in Blue Lock, he also received an invitation for a "player improvement project." Before entering Blue Lock, he meets Yoichi Isagi from Ichinan High.

After hearing Ego's eccentric opening remarks, Ryosuke Kira showed his disapproval. Kira believes that his high school team is his main priority, especially since they'll participate in the nationals. He stated that he cannot accept the terms and conditions of Blue lock as such will equal throwing away his team. After this, several players also agreed to what Kira said. Jinpachi Ego, however, could not care less with their opposition. Ego remarked that to be the striker in the world, one must drown themselves in greed. On the other hand, Kira believes that team play is more important.

Once inside Blue Lock, players are divided into several shared rooms. Ryosuke Kira is assigned to the room, and a group called Team Z. Inside the room was a TV screen. After a few minutes, Ego appears on the TV to state the mechanics of the prison-like facility. He announced the first activity, which is the game of tag. The game will have a time limit of 136 seconds. The player with possession is "it." The last player in possession of the ball, once the time runs out, will be the eliminated player.

The ball is passed from one player to the other. After several passes, Bachira is it. With only 11 seconds left, Bachira chases Kira. Bachira kicks the ball in the direction of Kira, but Kira successfully dodges it. Believing that he dodged it, Kira was caught off-guard when Isagi kicked the ball once more towards him. The ball hit Kira's face with only 1 second left to spare. The game concluded with Kira as the loser.

Confused and angered with the sudden betrayal of Isagi, Kira had an outburst. Kira believed that he was more worthy of staying than Isagi or Igaguri, both having the lowest ranks in Team Z. Also, he asked Ego about the importance and relevance of playing tag. Ego explained the similarities in aspects of the game of tag with football. Although reluctant at first, Kira leaves the facility. Kira is the first player in Team Z and the series to leave Blue Lock.

Despite his betrayal, Isagi did not feel any resentment for Kuon, as he still went out of his way to talk to Kuon even after the entire team was giving him the silent treatment. In the end, it was Isagi who caused Kuon to tackle Nagi since Isagi made Kuon realize that Team Z could have a fighting chance at surviving Blue Lock. Right now, Isagi and Kuon seem to be on good terms.

## Jingo Raichi

Raichi and Kuon had a pretty neutral relationship. Kuon looked out for all of his team members, including Raichi, and he was usually the person who would calm Raichi down whenever he got heated. After learning about his betrayal, Raichi quickly fostered a great amount of hostility towards Kuon. This hostility eventually dissipated once Kuon regained the team's trust by tackling Nagi and getting a red card so that Team Z would have extra time to score the winning goal. Right now, Kuon and Raichi seem to be on good terms.

Third Selection: Tryout

**Third Selection: Tryout** (サードセレクション「トライアウト」, *Sādo Serekushon ‘Toraiauto’*?) is the third selection of the Blue Lock Project.

## Description

Each team of five that cleared the Second Selection starts by playing a match against five of the World's Best. Winning the game is not a necessity, only participation because the match is only meant to assess the final round of strikers. Once finished with the match, the cleared teams go through language education while waiting for every team to finish.

The remaining 35 strikers are then rounded up together and Jinpachi Ego officially announces the top 6 players in Blue Lock. The Top 6 players are then paired up and broken into 3 teams; Team A, Team B, and Team C. The rest of the 29 strikers must then decide whose team they will play on in order to showcase and prove their skills in an attempt to be chosen for the Blue Lock Eleven and get to play against the Japan U-20. Each player only has one game to prove themselves but due to the odd number of players left someone has the chance to prove their skills in two games; that honor goes to the Top 7th player in Blue Lock.

There are 5 matches in this selection and every pair of the Top 6 plays at least 3 games but due to the odd number of players, the pair of Team A must play 4 games. Once the matches are over, the players are to wait for the results and see who is playing on the Blue Lock Eleven.

Once the Blue Lock Eleven are chosen, the entirety of Blue Lock goes through a special supplemental instruction on Flow State and then begin practicing in preparation for the match against the U-20. Even if some players did not make the starting lineup, they still have a chance to make the team by proving themselves in practice.

Only those who show they can "coexist and assert" themselves within the Top 6 will have a chance at being chosen for the Blue Lock Eleven.

## Matches

 **A1**: Isagi, Hiori, Nanase | **B1**: Chigiri, Saramadara, Shiguma | -
 **A2**: Igarashi, Aryu, Ishikari | -

Hirotoshi Buratsuta

* Manga
* Anime

**Hirotoshi Buratsuta** (不 (ぶ) 乱 (ら) 蔦 (つた)  宏 (ひろ) 俊 (とし) , *Buratsuta Hirotoshi*?) is the chairman of the Japan Football Union.

## Personality

Hirotoshi Buratsuta can be described as a money-oriented person with little to no high ambition. Even though Japan lost in the World Cup 2018 (Round 16), Hirotoshi is unbothered. With Japan Football Union financially stable, Hirotoshi sees nothing wrong with the current national team. In fact, he appears to believe that Japan will never be able to win the world cup, as he actively mocks Anri for thinking so. Proven to be incredibly delusional, he believes that all the association has to do is maintain the national team’s brand and façade since to him, football is a business.  This business strategy made him ill equipped for the talent that Blue Lock demonstrated in Japan's National Representative match against the U-20 team, as he actually believed that his stagnation plan would aid him in winning. Ultimately, resulting in his complete and utter humiliation in front of the entire world. Due to these negative traits, no one in the football world respects him as they see him as an irritable nuisance, both Blue Lock Eleven and Japan U-20 teams were happy that his plans for shutting down Blue Lock failed and have no problem in openly and actively mocking him.

In addition, Hirotoshi tends to come off as sleazy and weird, as he tends to stare at Anri’s chest while she is talking. Proving himself to be shameless, after his loss against Blue Lock, he pilfers the credit for the project's founding.

## Relationships

### Anri Teieri

Hirotoshi and Anri are polar opposites when it comes to football. While Anri wants to see Japan win the World Cup, Hirotoshi could not care less. Also, Hirotoshi sees Blue Lock as a way time of and resources. On the other hand, Anri believes that Blue Lock can be used to produce top-notch strikers capable of winning the World Cup. Moreover, like the others in the Japan Football Association, he also sexualizes Anri and stares at her large chest.

## Quotes

* (To Anri) *We’re making money so who cares? After all, football is nothing but business.*
* (To Anri) *Do you really believe that Japan can win the World Cup?!*
* (To  Ego) *Then it's fine. After all football is a business.*

## Etymology

* His given name, **Hirotoshi** (宏 (ひろ) 俊 (とし) , *****Hirotoshi*****?), means “wide genius.”
* His surname, **Buratsuta** (不 (ぶ) 乱 (ら) 蔦 (つた) , *****Buratsuta*****?), means “bad war ivy.”

## Trivia

* Hirotoshi was tied with Inaba at 30th in the first popularity poll with two votes.
