Blue Lock has taken the anime world by storm with its intense, ego-driven soccer action and gripping character arcs. After the jaw-dropping Season 2 finale, fans are buzzing with excitement, eagerly awaiting news about Season 3. If you're wondering when Blue Lock Season 3 will hit screens and what to expect, this article dives into all the details, speculations, and updates available as of August 2025. Let's kick things off! When will Blue Lock Season 3 Release?
While no official release date has been confirmed, the production timeline of previous seasons offers some clues. Season 1 premiered in October 2022 and ran until March 2023, with Season 2 following in October 2024 and wrapping up in December 2024. This suggests a roughly 18-20 month gap between seasons, pointing to a potential release for Season 3 in mid-to-late 2026, possibly around October 2026. Some sources, like posts circulating on social media, also speculate an October 2026 release, though nothing is set in stone.
Studio 8bit is known for delivering high-quality animation, but Season 2 faced criticism for its animation quality. Fans hope the extra time will allow the studio to polish Season 3, especially for the visually demanding Neo Egoist League arc. Keep an eye on Blue Lock's official X page or Crunchyroll for the latest updates as they drop. What Will Blue Lock Season 3 Be About?
Season 3 is expected to dive into the Neo Egoist League arc, a fan-favorite from Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Yusuke Nomura's manga. This arc takes the stakes to a global level, with Blue Lock's top strikers training alongside international U-20 teams from Germany, England, Spain, Italy, and France to prepare for the U-20 World Cup. Expect intense matches, new strategies, and jaw-dropping moments as Yoichi Isagi faces off against rivals like the smug German striker Michael Kaiser.
The arc will also explore deeper character dynamics, especially the rivalry between Rin Itoshi and his older brother, Sae Itoshi, a star player on Japan's U-20 team. This sibling drama promises emotional depth alongside the high-octane soccer action. Fans can look forward to Isagi evolving his skills, new characters shaking up the roster, and cinematic matches that push the limits of sports anime. Who's Returning for Blue Lock Season 3?
The voice cast is a huge part of Blue Lock's charm, bringing the characters' egos and emotions to life. Based on previous seasons, expect the following fan-favorite voice actors to return: Yoichi Isagi : Kazuki Ura (Japanese) / Ricco Fajardo (English)
Meguru Bachira : Tasuku Kaito (Japanese) / Drew Breedlove (English)
Rin Itoshi : Kouki Uchiyama (Japanese) / Matt Shipman (English)
Jinpachi Ego: Hiroshi Kamiya (Japanese) / Derick Snow (English)
New characters will join the fray, with Michael Kaiser, voiced by Mamoru Miyano, stealing the spotlight as a cocky yet brilliant striker from Bastard München. Sae Itoshi's expanded role will also add fuel to the fire. The cast's chemistry is sure to make Season 3 a treat for fans.
