Blue Lock (ブルーロック) is a sports thriller anime based on the manga by Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Yusuke Nomura. Japan’s football association recruits 300 elite high school strikers and pits them against each other in a brutal elimination program to forge the world’s greatest egoist striker. Season 1 (24 episodes) aired from October 2022 to March 2023. A theatrical film, Blue Lock the Movie: Episode Nagi, told the story of the enigmatic Seishiro Nagi and premiered in 2024.

Best Legal Options for Blue Lock
1. Crunchyroll — Best for the Full Blue Lock Experience
Crunchyroll is the most complete option: Seasons 1 and 2, plus the Episode Nagi theatrical film, are all available on a single subscription. Season 2 exclusively streams on Crunchyroll (no Netflix listing confirmed). Sub and dub options are available for all content.
2. Netflix — Season 1 Only
If you already have Netflix, Season 1 (24 episodes) became available on April 25, 2026. This is a good option if you want to try the series before committing to a Crunchyroll subscription. For Season 2 and the film, you’ll need to move to Crunchyroll.
Watching Order Note
Watch the TV seasons in order: Season 1 → Season 2. The Episode Nagi film can be watched after Season 1 or Season 2 — it covers events concurrent with the first season from Nagi’s perspective and works as a companion piece rather than a direct sequel.
Blue Lock is confirmed on Crunchyroll and Netflix in the United States. If you’re traveling and can’t reach your account, a VPN like NordVPN lets you connect to a US server and access either platform normally.
