Peak

The panels are amazing and the whole concept of being the biggest egoist in the whole world is fascinating. The whole manga has great scenes and so many interesting characters. It gets even better the further you read into the volumes.

Insane!

Love the concept of blue lock! It's a completely 180 from what we expect from a sports manga. Isagai and Bachira are such cool characters. I love how each volume cover looks and will continue to collect the series.

AN AMAZING BEGINNING TO AN AMAZING STORY

From the beginning it has a really great premise, albeit a slightly strange one. Japan puts on a youth program to create the worlds greatest striker through a Battle Royal type of atmosphere. Where the losers lose the right to represent Japan. The art is breathtaking and I can’t wait to keep on reading.
