Blue Lock Chapter 306 will be officially released on June 11, 2025, at 12:00 PM JST (Wednesday) on the KManga app and Pocket Shonen Magazine app in Japan. The series is now preparing for the U-20 World Cup, which will be hosted in Japan. There are 64 teams competing in this tournament, including the ones made up of New Generation World 11 players.
Update: Looks like my third prediction is turning out to be true, based on the preview for Blue Lock Chapter 306:
Nagi can’t stop thinking about Blue Lock, even after returning to his daily life.
What Happened in Blue Lock Chapter 305?
Blue Lock Chapter 305, titled ‘X23’, focused on Ego’s plans for the selected 23 players from Blue Lock. Each player was given a special task or assignment based on their personality and playing style to help them reach their final form before the World Cup starts.
Some of the assignments were serious, while others were unexpected and strange.
- Shidou was told by Ego to do whatever he wants before he dies, and Blue Lock will pay for it. Shidou decided to go skydiving.
- Barou was invited to Eisa University, where he met a team of American football players. His training is meant to make him learn what he is still missing to truly become the King.
- Bachira was sent to an elementary school and asked to teach soccer to kids. Ego wants him to learn by teaching and rediscover his natural instincts.
- Chigiri’s task is focused on stamina and endurance. He was assigned swimming training to improve his breathing and help him stay fast longer in matches.
- Kunigami is told to become better at close-range combat, and his training is MMA and hand-to-hand fighting.
- Reo Mikage was tasked with copying the abilities of the other 22 players using footage stored on SD cards.
The last few panels of Chapter 305 also showed the rest of the players, but did not explain much about their assignments. As for Isagi, his task was already revealed earlier in Chapter 304, where he was seen watching past World Cup video tapes to improve his decision-making and game vision.
The funniest one out of all these was Sendou. He was seen holding something like an M4A4 rifle, most likely an airsoft gun. His training is likely to improve his aim and precision.

To read Blue Lock in English, you will need to download the K-Manga app by Kodansha. The app lets you read chapters for free, but the latest three chapters are only for paid users. However, the application is not available in every location, so you need to wait for Kodansha to expand the service.
The series is also available on another platform called “Magapoke“. However, it only has the Japanese official version of the chapters.
What To Expect From Blue Lock Chapter 306?
Since we have now seen what kind of training and tasks Ego gave to the 23 selected players for Japan’s U-20 World Cup team, Blue Lock Chapter 306 might shift the focus back to Isagi.
In Chapter 304, Isagi was shown receiving a plane ticket, along with a letter and old World Cup tapes. But the chapter did not show where that ticket was for. So there is a chance Ego could be sending Isagi abroad for the 14-day break, maybe to train in Germany or meet someone specific. That might finally be revealed in this chapter.
More New Generation World XI Players Could Be Shown
Only three players from the New Generation World XI have been revealed so far, Sae Itoshi, Michael Kaiser, and Don Lorenzo. But back in Chapter 303, we saw 11 country flags shown. These flags could be linked to the rest of the New Gen 11 players, but it has not been confirmed yet.
There is a good chance Blue Lock Chapter 306 might finally show us who the remaining players are, especially since the World Cup is getting closer and the chapter title is “Hello”.
Nagi and Reo’s Situation
Another thing Chapter 306 could cover is Reo and Nagi. Nagi was last properly shown in Chapter 302, after he failed to make the final 23. Chapter 303 also showed a meeting between Ego and the JCU chairman, where the chairman tried to bring Nagi back, but Ego rejected the idea.
In the latest chapter (305), Nagi was mentioned again in a flashback where Reo talks about how he is not getting used to being without Nagi. Since they both promised to reach the top together. So Blue Lock Chapter 306 could be about Nagi.
