How to watch the Blue Lock anime series and movie in order

Blue Lock throws 300 high school strikers into a cutthroat program to forge Japan's greatest egotist goal-scorer. With two seasons and a spin-off movie, this guide sorts out the ideal watch order.

Blue Lock reinvented the sports anime by turning teamwork on its head β€” its heroes are trained to be selfish strikers competing for a single spot on the national team. Based on the manga by Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Yusuke Nomura, the anime spans two intense seasons plus a movie focused on fan-favorite Nagi.

πŸ• Release Order

Release order follows the Blue Lock program stage by stage, exactly as it aired.

  1. Blue Lock Season 1 (2022)
  2. Blue Lock: Episode Nagi (2024)
  3. Blue Lock Season 2 (2024)

Episode Nagi retells the early Blue Lock arcs from Seishiro Nagi's perspective, so it overlaps with events from Season 1 rather than continuing the main timeline.

πŸ“– Story Chronology

In story terms, Episode Nagi covers the same period as Season 1, so the main timeline runs straight from Season 1 into Season 2.

  1. Blue Lock Season 1 (2022)
  2. Blue Lock Season 2 (2024)

Which Order Should You Choose?

For a first watch, follow release order: Season 1, then Season 2, treating Episode Nagi as an optional companion piece you can enjoy after Season 1. The movie is a fun alternate perspective but not required to understand the main plot. If you love Nagi, watching his film right after Season 1 adds extra depth before you dive into Season 2's selection matches.
