Blue Lock Chapter 301 release date and time: When and where to read the popular Japanese sports manga online?
Blue Lock Chapter 301 release date and time: After a short break following the release of Chapter 300, Blue Lock is returning with a brand-new chapter. The creators had previously announced a brief hiatus due to the magazine's Golden Week, but now the release date for the next instalment is officially out. If you've been eagerly waiting to see what's next, keep reading to find out when and where you can read the upcoming chapter.
What is the story of Blue Lock?
Blue Lock, a Japanese shōnen sports manga, has been created by writer Muneyuki Kaneshiro and illustrator Yusuke Nomura. The story kicks off right after Japan's frustrating elimination from the 2018 FIFA World Cup. In response, the Japanese Football Union decides it's time to shake things up with the launch of the Blue Lock project, a radical program designed to find and develop the ultimate striker, someone who can lead Japan to victory in the 2022 World Cup.
At the center of it all is Isagi Yoichi, a high school forward who gets selected to join the program after a critical moment during a game—he passed the ball to a teammate instead of taking the shot himself, and it cost them a shot at Nationals. That hesitation sticks with him. Now, inside a high-intensity training facility run by the ruthless and eccentric Coach Ego Jinpachi, Isagi joins 299 other skilled forwards to lead Japan to glory.
Blue Lock chapter 300 recap: Nagi's quiet exit leaves fans heartbroken
In chapter 300 of Blue Lock, Seishiro Nagi is officially disqualified after finishing 24th in the Neo Egoist League. He needed to be in the top 23 to move forward. Even though Reo Mikage and Yoichi Isagi try to speak up for him, Coach Ego refuses to change his decision. He believes Nagi has lost his drive, and Nagi agrees.
Nagi tells Reo that Ego was right. After beating Isagi, he felt satisfied and lost his motivation. He admits that he only cared about Reo and apologizes for depending on him too much. Reo tells Nagi not to say sorry and that he appreciated their time together.
As Nagi walks toward the exit, Isagi calls out to him and tells him not to give up on soccer. Nagi doesn't say anything, but a small look in his eyes suggests that Isagi's words may have reached him.

Trump 2025 travel ban: Uncle Sam's new no-fly list just got bigger; this is what has been banned and barred
Image credits: Getty Images Donald Trump , the President of the United States of America on Wednesday signed a proclamation banning citizens of 12 countries across the globe from entering the United States. The move, which is a part of the POTUS' immigration crackdown launched earlier this year, is portrayed as a needed action to protect the country against "foreign terrorists" and other security threats. "We will not allow people to enter our country who wish to do us harm," Trump said in a video posted on X. He also added that the list could be revised and new countries could be added. Who has been banned from the United States and who has been barred? Find out below! Banned from the United States of America Image credits: Getty Images These are the 12 countries that have been banned by Trump and whose citizens can not visit the US. Afghanistan Myanmar Chad Congo Equatorial Guinea Eritrea Haiti Iran Libya Somalia Sudan Yemen Partially restricted from the United States of America There are seven other countries whose entry to the US is partially restricted. These are: Burundi Cuba Laos Sierra Leone Togo Turkmenistan Venezuela Welcomed to the United States of America Image credits: Getty Images According to The Guardian, Trump's new travel ban contains a unique exemption. Players, staff or associated families with clubs participating in the 2025 Club World Cup, the 2026 Fifa World Cup or the 2028 Olympics could be exempted from the US travel ban. Section 4 of the order, outlines the exemption stating, "any athlete or member of an athletic team, including coaches, persons performing a necessary support role and immediate relatives, travelling for the World Cup, Olympics, or other major sporting event as determined by the secretary of the state" are not subject to the ban. The travel ban by the President is a reinstatement as earlier the Biden administration had repealed the ban on nationals from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen in 2021 calling it "a stain on our national conscience." Many countries such as Somalia and Venezuela have already responded to the travel ban. While the former pledged to work with the U.S. to address the security issues, the latter announced that living in the United States is a "big risk" and advised its citizens against being in the U.S.
