Will Nagi and Kira Pass Side-B and Challenge Blue Lock? Blue Lock Chapter 327 Part 1 Spoilers
We cut back to Side-B, where, along with Nagi and Kira, another strong contender joins the fray.
In the previous Blue Lock chapter, Blue Lock’s victory over Nigeria in the first U-20 World Cup match is announced while France prepares to take their turn.
Blue Lock Chapter 327 is titled, “Bird Cage”
This chapter has 10 pages, meaning this could be the first half of a chapter and a sign the writer (Nomura) and illustrator (Kaneshiro)
Editor’s note: “Within the U-20 framework, the only option is to wipe out the incompetent…!!”
Side-B has begun!
The chapter begins with Buratsuta calling the 300 candidates and declaring their mission: to surpass the Blue Lock and become the Number 1 Striker!
From the 300, two will survive and they will be given a chance to face off against the finalist team, with Buratsuta’s full support.
We see Ryosuke Kira, who made a notable return in Chapter 311: “Side-B”.
Kira scoffs at Buratsuta’s showmanship, noting he is just copying Jinpachi Ego and thus this is just a “slave contract”.
A newcomer remarks that Kira understands the situation.
This dashing fellow is Shindō Haneru, a man with a small goatee.
He is from the Dutch 2nd Division, AAA Club and identifies Kira as the “Hope of Japan”.
Kira is surprised to see that the guy has a “1” tag like his.
Shindo expresses how surprised he is to see someone of Kira’s caliber not make it to Blue Lock yet try his luck again, and he asks if Kira likes Blue Lock.
Kira says it is the opposite because he rejects Blue Lock’s philosophy, which he sees as a form of brainwashing and so he accepted Buratsuta’s invitation to be a rebel.
Shindo remarks Kira is just like the far-right anti–Blue Lock faction.
It is surprising for Blue Lock, a team of egoists and individualists, to be identified as leftists.
To be fair, Japan is more communitarian and so the status quo that does not approve of the approved Blue Lock would be treated as the far right.
Kira declares his goal to crush Blue Lock and Yoichi Isagi, who is its great product.
The pair would be joined up by Seishiro Nagi.
Editor’s note: “Even the eliminated geniuses join! A brand-new battle begins!!”
Chapter 327 Part 2 will be released on December 3, 2025.
