Onazi FINDS HIS EGO! Onazi vs Isagi BEGINS! Blue Lock Chapter 321 Spoilers!
Isagi teaches Nigeria the true meaning of ego as the second round winds out to its finale. Can Nigeria secure a tie or are they bound to gain nothing?
In the previous Blue Lock chapter, Rin scores the third goal for Blue Lock vs Nigeria.
Blue Lock Chapter 321 is titled, “Relentless”
This chapter has 20 pages.
Editor’s note: “The whole of Japan is erupting for the third goal brought about by the soul!”
Japan 3- 0 Nigeria
The crowd cheers for Rin’s goal while Isagi asks Rin if this is the fruit of his training.
Rin reminds Isagi, his Demon King, that he is just a weapon.
Rin exploited Nigeria’s focus on Bachira to get through their defense, a moment of genius came about to shoot that goal.
Rin expresses anticipation for the fulfillment of his goal.
On the day his older brother Sae joins the National Team, Rin will show that he is the ultimate striker, the one to validate his pure ruthless ambition.
Meanwhile, Isagi reciprocates his rival’s feelings, saying that he will also use this challenge to strengthen himself.
But the story is not just about two protagonists.
Bachira, Chigiri and Karasu also declare that they will individually rise to the top as well.
From the monitors, Anri cheers for Blue Lock’s landslide victory so far and although this is just the first game, she is impressed by how much every player has grown.
This makes Anri excited to look for more talents to join Blue Lock.
Meanwhile, Ego remarks that the “hero” has been chosen and it is Itoshi Rin, a striker with the ego, talent and mentality that are all perfectly aligned.
There is only 15 minutes left for the second half and the Nigeria team remarks that getting 3 points is impossible at this rate, proving that Japan already has what it takes for the U-20 World Cup.
Bello feels terrified because the Blue Lock style, focusing on individuality and everyone being strikers or hunters, is actually more fun than their cohesive teamwork.
Bello motivates his team to seek out even one point, one goal, as proof that they can change something, their playstyle and fates, in their own terms.
Isagi calls out Bello for acting like a cliche movie hero, whose excitement is ultimately moved by adrenaline rush and saying what they are doing is meaningless.
This is because this adrenaline only passively embraces the convenient, exciting parts of being a star but such an “instant ego” will be forgotten within a month or so after leaving the movie theater.
Being influenced by the lifestyle of a hero is a shallow path as it will not make someone grow or change.
Isagi tells Bello that the reason that Nigeria is falling far behind them is because their mindset is about the collective, “we” or “us”.
That form of groupthink causes people to shift blame to other people, to let other people take responsibility for things you should be responsible for, and this results in codependence and a lack of critical thinking, thus a lack of growth and change.
This is the problem with every member of U-20 Nigeria.
Now Isagi asks how they feel about it.
Onazi declares his frustration and refusal to stay the same, otherwise he will not be able to beat Blue Lock.
Isagi asks if Onazi wants a memorable battle or to be called the Hero of Nigeria.
But Onazi insists he wants to become the world’s number one striker, which pleases Isagi, who passes the ball as he challenges Onazi to crush him.
Onazi asks Isagi where his insatiable ego comes from, with Isagi saying that it is curiosity about oneself.
“44 days before that ego approaches”
Editor’s note: “The heat source of ego is exploration of oneself! The answer – put it out to the world!!”
Blue Lock Chapter 322 is titled, “Myself” and will be released on October 22, 2025.
