Blue Lock Chapter 157: The First Match! Plot, Preview & Release Date

Blue Lock Chapter 157 will be returning to the screens after two long weeks. Due to the Christmas holidays, the manga was running on a hiatus last week. With the return of the chapter, many arcs will come back to the forefront. The Blue Lock team from the German Environment is facing the Bastards Club. Much to the surprise of Isagi and the rest of the players, the German players have no intention of playing it safe. So, here is everything you need to know about the upcoming chapter.

The next chapter of Blue Lock will be a turning point for Isagi and his peers. This is the first time that they would be facing the players from Germany on the soccer field. At this point, no one knows what to expect from the match. But it is clear that the game will show these players a mirror about their performances as a team.

Blue Lock Chapter 157: Plot Details!

As suggested by the final panel of the previous outing, the title of the 157th chapter is ‘Kaiser.’ The title gives a clear hint of what lies ahead in the story. The new German player who was introduced in the last outing will be taking center stage. Being the ace sprinter of his team, this player might be in charge of training the boys of Blue Lock. And as it has been established, his sole purpose is not just to be a good trainer. Instead, Kaiser is willing to put down each and every one of the players for his Ego.

So, Blue Lock Chapter 157 will begin another round of matches between the German and the Blue Lock players. It can be expected that Kunigami and Isagi will face most of the wrath from the German Bastard players. But their chances of winning at any match are quite low at this point.

Previous Chapter Recap!

The 156th chapter of Blue Lock opened with Ego still explaining about the new training mechanism. As he took his leave, the players understood that the next couple of days were not going to be easy. Neol Nao came forward and hinted the players for a mixed marathon. As the clock counted to ten, it was clear that Ego would spare no time in giving any more instructions. At the hit of one on the clock, Noel took his leave. Kunigami was the first one to rush to the finish line.

All the players followed through the sprint race. Next up, the entire set-up of a dash race was up ahead of the players. Isagi was shocked to see how fast and sharp the German team was. All through the races, they retained their strengths. In the final round of the race, a player named Kaiser came accross Isagi. When they shared an eye-contact, Kaiser asked Isagi to kneel before him. With a frame of Isagi’s black stare, the chapter came to an end.
