[Blue Lock] Life-changing quotes. Fiery words from characters who set your heart ablaze (1–10)
Don’t be trapped by your past self. Change can only begin by breaking who you’ve been until now.NEW!Yoichi Isagi
These words are the conclusion Isagi reached during the second selection match after analyzing himself.
Compared to prodigies like Nagi and Barou, he placed himself as an ordinary player.
Realizing he couldn’t win as he was, he decided to change.
If it helps him win, he’ll even break himself—his obsession with victory is evident.
Rebuilding oneself isn’t easy, but Isagi repeatedly breaks out of his shell and grows throughout the story.
He also possesses a high soccer IQ acknowledged by his coach, Ego.
It’s a memorable quote that highlights his talent for never stopping his thinking no matter the situation.
If you’ve given it your all, hold your head high. Become someone who accepts the chance results that await and keeps moving forward. Fortune continues to fall equally upon those who truly fight.NEW!Jinhachi the Artistically Gifted
Ego Jinpachi is the storyteller-like figure who drives this tale.
He’s the coach hired with the dream of leading Japan to a World Cup victory.
At key moments, Jinpachi’s egoistic lines appear and always tighten the story.
If you step away from the manga, these lines also serve as good advice for how we live our lives, especially about fighting on.
Just like in soccer, I believe that “opportunity rolls to those who never give up until the very end.” It’s also a line I want to say to fire myself up.
Don’t win by chance. Seize victory by winning as you’re meant to.NEW!Jinhachi the Artistically Gifted
Episode 24 features a line bursting with energy from early in the story.
For Jinpachi, who was hired by Emperor-collar Henri dreaming of a World Cup victory, “winning by chance” simply isn’t good enough.
His barrage of domineering, high-pressure lines toward the players reads less like a “hired mission” and more like pure obsession.
We all turn to the gods sometimes, but from Jinpachi’s perspective it’s: “Don’t rely on luck!” That severity is exactly what forges these still-young soccer players.
Blue Lock is a manga you’ll want to recommend to friends who haven’t read it yet.
A blazing raw gem called talent, if left unpolished, turns into self-satisfying trash.NEW!Jinhachi the Artistically Gifted
At just the right moment—when key characters from various places are gathered and the story starts to move forward—Jinpachi delivers this line.
In terms of the comics, it’s around volume 3.
As you’d expect, when you bring together a lot of players, some people are talented but lazy.
You probably know someone like that too, right? Jinpachi often plays a pretty heel-like role, but he does give solid advice.
It’s just that the way he says things… is extremely quirky.
“Raw gem of talent” is a phrase Jinpachi uses a lot, and it shows up repeatedly throughout the story.
It’s fun to read with that in mind.
No matter how much you knock on someone else’s heart, you can’t change another person. That’s why you always have to change yourself. There’s surely no other way to change a world that doesn’t go the way you want.NEW!Yoichi Isagi
This line was born as he struggled with his teammate Shouei Barou’s uncooperative play and tried to find a way to make Barou work within the team.
In a harsh environment where “once you lose, it’s over,” you can’t afford to be pessimistic no matter how unfavorable the situation.
It was also a scene that made readers happy to see Yoichi Isagi—who used to be a bit timid—gradually become more positive.
That mindset of “I have to change myself!” is something we can apply to our everyday lives as well.
You can’t truly feel regret unless you accept your defeat.NEW!Seishiro Nagi
https://www.tiktok.com/@user2263325271008/video/7214733760661654791Speaking of Seishiro Nagi, he’s a laid-back, loose, and seemingly unmotivated character.
The fact that he was called up to Blue Lock just six months after starting shows his high potential and real ability, but he never really seemed to be enjoying himself on the field.
However, after losing a match to the protagonist Isagi, he discovered how fun soccer can be.
This famous quote is something Nagi muttered to Barou, who was playing selfishly.
It shows just how significant that defeat was to someone like Nagi, who had never shown strong interest in anything, and how much it changed him.
Don’t aim to make the right choice; make the path you chose the right one.NEW!Bachira Meguru
Spontaneous and innocent Bachira Meguru, unusually, seems to be troubled in this scene—though maybe he wasn’t actually worried after all? These words appear when he’s torn over which country’s team to choose in the “Neo Egoist League.” Rather than living passively by “just picking and leaving the rest to luck,” it feels like he’s telling us that what matters is the strong will to carve out the path you’ve chosen yourself.
Remember Bachira’s line the next time you have to make a choice.
