April 19 marks the premiere of BLUELOCK: Episode Nagi, and ahead of that we have a new trailer previewing more footage and the theme song. Check out the latest early look and a sample of Nissy and SKY-HI’s “Stormy” theme song below.
Based on the manga by Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Yusuke Nomura, the BLUELOCK: Episode Nagi anime film is being directed by Tetsuaki Watanabe, with Shunsuke Ishikawa assistant-directing at Eight Bit. Manga author Muneyuki Kaneshiro is supervising the story.
Crunchyroll streams the BLUELOCK anime and describes it like so:
After a disastrous defeat at the 2018 World Cup, Japan’s team struggles to regroup. But what’s missing? An absolute Ace Striker, who can guide them to the win. The Japan Football Union is hell-bent on creating a striker who hungers for goals and thirsts for victory, and who can be the decisive instrument in turning around a losing match…and to do so, they’ve gathered 300 of Japan’s best and brightest youth players. Who will emerge to lead the team…and will they be able to out-muscle and out-ego everyone who stands in their way?
