Recap of Blue Lock chapter 254

Blue Lock chapter 254, titled Self-Style, World-Style, saw Kunigami being turned into a defensive midfielder alongside Raichi.

Right after, the game resumed with Kaiser's kickoff. Isagi began lamenting how he needed to attain his peak performance. He soon realized that there were two types of players, Self-Style players and World-Style players. Given that he was a World-Style player, he needed to analyze his environment more.

Meanwhile, Hiori was about to pass the ball to Isagi when Charles stole it away. During this, both Charles and Hiori realized that the other possessed Metavision as well.

Charles made a long pass toward Shidou when Kunigami charged at him and stopped the attack by clearing the ball away as Kunigami reminded Shidou about himself.

What to expect from Blue Lock chapter 255?

Blue Lock chapter 255, titled Getting Fired Up Again, could switch its focus to the game between Manshine City and FC Barcha.

As fans might remember, Seishiro Nagi was having trouble getting fired up to play football, so he was underperforming in all his game. Thus, the upcoming chapter could focus on Nagi and Reo and reveal how they will get back into their groove.

Otherwise, there's also a possibility that the upcoming chapter will focus on Kunigami Rensuke as he attempts to surpass Ryusei Shidou.
