About BLUE LOCK
*BLUE LOCK* is a highly acclaimed soccer manga that won the 45th Kodansha Manga Award in the Shonen category. Written by Kaneshiro Muneyuki and illustrated by Nomura Yusuke, it’s currently serialized in *Weekly Shonen Magazine*.
The story revolves around the “Blue Lock” project, a program established by the Japan Football Union with the ambitious goal of developing the ultimate striker who can lead Japan to World Cup victory. Three hundred elite high school forwards are gathered, all vying for the chance to become the world’s best through a brutal, survival-of-the-fittest selection process.
The TV anime adaptation first aired for two consecutive cours starting October 2022. Fans were also treated to the theatrical film, *Gekijouban BLUE LOCK -EPISODE Nagi-*, which premiered in April 2024. The excitement continued with the second season of the TV anime, which began broadcasting on October 5th and ran for 14 episodes.
The Cafe Concept: A Culinary Journey with Seven Characters
The “BLUE LOCK CAFE SPECIAL TRIP” brings to life the individual journeys of seven beloved characters from *BLUE LOCK*. This unique cafe experience offers a vibrant array of character-themed food, desserts, and drinks, all designed to be as visually stunning and “insta-worthy” as they are delicious.
Character-Inspired Culinary Delights
Prepare your taste buds for a selection of dishes crafted to embody the spirit of each *BLUE LOCK* player:
For Isagi Yoichi, indulge in the Ethnic Herb Pork Plate, a refreshing dish where the aromatic scents of basil and mint mingle, with daikon pickles cleverly shaped like puzzle pieces to represent his strategic mind. (1,890 JPY tax included)
Bachira Meguru‘s Honey Mustard Sandwich uses a hint of honey, a playful nod to his name, with mustard and balsamic sauce creating a vibrant ‘bee-like’ color scheme. (1,890 JPY tax included)
Nagi Seishiro‘s Lemon Doria boasts a striking visual contrast between the black white sauce and the bright lemon, creating a truly memorable dish. (1,890 JPY tax included)
Mikage Reo‘s Curry Doria is layered with cream in his signature color and garnished with nuts for a rich finish. (1,890 JPY tax included)
Itoshi Rin‘s Meat Pasta invites you to break apart the black cheese and hamburger steak, mixing them into a savory experience. (1,890 JPY tax included)
