Sequels, movie.. anything as long as manga sells well. Not surprised in the slightest as this was always coming.

Though wonder if they'll continue with the two cour thing.

More Blue Lock is always welcome 🙏🏼
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL has unfortunately become a brain dead extension of the worst and most moronic aspects of Twitter

As a fan of the show, I'm hyped, but I'm really flabbergasted how AoAshi still hasn't gotten a season 2 announcement.

Great news, though it was to be expected given how popular it became. Now I hope Ao Ashi also gets a new season announced

This comes as no surprise because during the FIFA 2022 World Cup, you saw Blue Lock everywhere in Japan.
And while I'm not a fan of sports myself, I'm actually looking forward to a season 2 and the movie.

Nice. Definitely looking forward to it as this was one of the very few anime I've watched in a good while.

Anime only's won't be ready for the U-20 arc lol....Shidou, Sae, Rin, Aiku and then great moments from HIMsagi, Nagi, Barou, Reo and Bachira.....Whew, I can't wait (But hopefully the budget increases tho)

Glad to see that they're making the Nagi spinoff into a movie too

Oh, wow, I have never seen any of this manga or anime, even though I have heard of it and have heard people talk about it. I need to watch it at some point.
