The title of the film, Episode Nagi, confirms it will focus majorly on the gifted football player Nagi as he starts his new journey with the Blue Lock. In the anime’s first season, we saw Yorichi Isagi as the main character, but now things will revolve around Nagi as he struggles to prove himself as a potent football player in the academy.

Shunsuke Ishikawa will be seen reprising his directorial duties at 8bit, with Muneyuki Kaneshiro showcasing his supervision skills. As the studio that animated the first season will produce the film, fans don’t have to worry about any massive changes in the animation quality (which is obviously good news).
