Blue Lock chapter 247 spoilers: Nagi and Reo address their shortcomings while Germany gears up for their match against France
As per the spoilers and raw scans, Blue Lock chapter 247 is titled Originality. This chapter focuses on the aftermath of the previous chapter, which saw Nagi Seishiro and Mikage Reo's respective rankings take a significant drop.
The chapter starts with Reo reading the fan reactions on social media to the news of their updated rankings. People on the Internet were apparently tired of Nagi and Reo's recent losses, with some even calling for the former to be kicked out of the team. Some comments called Nagi's 'super goal' from his last match a fluke as well.
After going through the comments, Reo was visibly disheartened to see the overwhelmingly negative reaction from the viewers on social media. As such, he decided to talk to Nagi about their current predicament and how a minor shortcoming from either of them in their next match could lead to dire consequences.
However, Nagi revealed that he had been thinking about their current situation and had arrived at the conclusion that they needed to change. He feels like his rivals are the only ones who are moving on, whereas he is being left behind by the dynamic situation of the field.
As such, Nagi said that they would need to keep on changing and evolving to become the best in the world. He was visibly fired up at this moment, along with the positive messages that continued to hype him up on social media. It goes to show that while there certainly will be several people who doubt and disregard Nagi's capabilities, there will always be another set of people who will continue to believe in him and cheer him on no matter the situation.
Elsewhere, Noel Noa was seen strategizing with his members in the Germany Team Monitor Room. He tells them that people who come in second place do not break any records or leave any memorable moments. As such, he motivated Bastard Munchen to win their upcoming match against France and carve their names into history.
As Noa is about to leave the room, Ego pays them a surprise visit to instill in them a few words of wisdom before their final match. He reminds them of the key element that would help them win the Neo-Egoist League, which is originality.
He emphasizes the value of this element and how it will help them shine during their upcoming match. With this, Blue Lock chapter 247 came to an end, teasing the long-awaited battle between Michael Kaiser and Isagi Yoichi against Rin Itoshi and Ryusei Shido in the next chapter.
