"After a disastrous defeat at the World Cup, Japan's team struggles to regroup. But what's missing? An absolute ace striker. The Football Union is hell-bent on creating a striker who hungers for goals and thirsts for victory, so Blue Lock--a rigorous training ground for 300 of Japan's best and brightest youth players--is created. To survive this battle royale, the last striker standing will have to out-muscle and out-ego everyone who stands in his way!"--Page [4] of cover.
