On February 28, 2025, as revealed by leaks online, Blue Lock manga is set to go on a sudden one-week break despite being present in the table of contents for Kodansha's Weekly Shonen Magazine issue 13.

However, considering that Kodansha and the creators have yet to make an official announcement about the sudden hiatus, the reason behind the break remains uncertain.

The good thing is that, as revealed by the magazine, the manga is set to resume serialization in Weekly Shonen Magazine issue 14, set to be released on Wednesday, March 12, 2025.

What to expect from Blue Lock chapter 295

As seen in the previous chapter, after Bastard Munchen was declared the Neo Egoist League Champion, the competition finally concluded. It seemed like either Ego Jinpachi or Anri Teieri was set to reveal the final salary rankings of all players.

Unfortunately, right before the announcement, the manga initiated a flashback to reveal what happened 33 minutes ago with Seishiro Nagi and Reo Mikage in the Manshine City vs. Barcha match.

The manga essentially hinted that its next chapter was set to focus on the other Neo Egoist League match. Now, it is to be seen how much the manga chapter will cover.

Considering the Episode: Nagi spinoff manga, it is unlikely that the original series will cover multiple goals. Hence, fans can expect to witness how Nagi and Reo's plan to improve their performance, the match's final goal, and the start of the final salary rankings announcement. This announcement will be crucial as it will determine which players will play for Japan in the U-20 World Cup.
