New chapters of Blue Lock season 2 are about to be released weekly on Saturdays via Crunchyroll, continuing until December. The timing for the episodes is likely to remain consistent, but be aware that Daylight Savings Time may affect air times for some regions later in the year.

You can enjoy Blue Lock season 2 exclusively on Crunchyroll, where the first 24 episodes are also already available. There are no plans for the series to transition to platforms like Netflix, Disney Plus, or Hulu anytime soon.

This season features a total of 14 episodes in the U-20 arc, and it is projected that the main attention will be directed towards a single match. If the episodes proceed smoothly without any breaks, the season is expected to run until January 2025.

The storyline hints at thrilling challenges ahead, mentioning that among the 35 players remaining, the Blue Lock program is at risk of being eliminated by Japan's U-20 National Team. Fierce competitors must work together to overcome the national youth team if they aspire to be the top striker. The key question remains: Will they set aside their differences to achieve victory, or will division lead to defeat?
