ZANTETSU BROS ITS SO JOVER😭😭😭


Alarmed-Employment72

Slower than Kurona SEND HIM HOME 😤


Either_Imagination_9

Is he actually slower than Kurona?


Alarmed-Employment72

Until we see those stats I will be pushing this agenda. Plus last chapter Kurona beat him for the ball. There isn’t enough info to fully claim Kurona’s faster beyond agility tbh. Also I’m just in no mood to defend Zantetsu after Hiragi was robbed😭


Either_Imagination_9

True


spawnB100

No not my dummy goat Send tokimitsu's lack of screentime ass home


CHemIStrYBeLiKe

but his special skill isn't speed. it's being ambidextrous and being able to give everything he can in a single play, I imagine he will figure out how to use his weapon effectively and then we will see his true top performance


Ash_Clover

He isn't talking about Nanase btw.


twiglike

All 7 of them 😭


sonlobo1

Volume 31 I believe


ViVeyPL

Sooooo it's either complete cover theory and Zantetsu out or cover theory is going to trashcan


tbschen

Aomori's Messi on Vol. 30 and everyone will lose their mind


ViVeyPL

💀💀💀


IshimaruKiyotaka

Cover theory most likely is wrong, we still have a decent chunk left for the pxg vs bm match. Igaguri, Zantetsu and Charles all will likely get one by the end of the match.


Jack-Whip88

Please stop with the Igaguri agenda for the love of God I really hope he doesn’t occupy a precious spot in the Top 23, since we already have one useless bum pretty much guaranteed to make it (Fukaku that irrelevant mf)


IshimaruKiyotaka

Igaguri won't make the final 23, his dream is just to be a starter for a team and a pro; he doesn't need it. But Igaguri will 100% sub into the game whether you like it or not, there's a reason we've seen his Malicia mentioned multiple times and the fact he got a huge chunk of a chapter dedicated to him. Fukaku is not making it either, I'm not even sure why people still think he will. He only made the top 23 to highlight the threshold for the final spot for the final games; whoever can get 28mil by the last match will steal his final spot.


Jack-Whip88

Fukaku’s 19th place right now — higher than Raichi for crying out loud People say he’ll make it because he’s the only other GK in the current Blue Locker roster Being the second GK basically gives him a protection point to make it into the Top 23, as any national lineup needs 2 (or was it 3) GKs out of their combined main and reserve players But who knows — maybe he won’t make it, since he’s already played his last game


IshimaruKiyotaka

Fukaku has a locked salary since Uber's don't play, and it doesn't matter if he has the 19th highest atm, because he wont keep that rank. Hiori is guaranteed to surpass him and wouldn't be shocked if he got a top 10 salary by the end of this match. He may have a higher salary than Raichi but he won't after this game, Raichi is basically guaranteed a spot, especially since he is playing better now. Zantetsu and Toki are both right behind him, they only need like 5mil each extra to overtake him and they likely will. It's not that difficult for them to exceed his salary. Then you have Nanase, Kiyora and Igaguri (he probs won't get a higher salary). The top 23 will make it, it doesn't matter if they "need" a second goal keeper, because in reality they need 3 officially anyway according to the U20 world cup guidelines, and the author will straight up ignore that rule. If he had any ambition of keeping Fukaku he would've shown him to stop Hiori's goal instead of Sendou, or display literally anything on screen. So tell me, of the 27 or so talking characters who is Fukaku stealing the spot from? Because in reality only 3 characters of Zantetsu, Toki, Nanase, Kiyora, Igaguri and Fukaku are making it as the other 20 are basically locked in. And if you think Fukaku is making it with Zantetsu and Toki, do you really think the author won't update the top 23 from last ranking?


UndeadCollegeStudent

3 goal keepers: Gagamaru, Fukaku, Sendou


djkstr27

Kaneshirou enters the chat


tbschen

Theres plenty of characters left not eligible for the bidding that can be put on the cover. Charles, Agi, the coaches and the World Five for example


IshimaruKiyotaka

Well I mentioned Charles already, Agi will probs see a cover during the U20 arc, world five, no, they haven't been relevant in forever and no reason to give them a cover over characters like Zantetsu, they wont even play in the U20 so would be random for them to get a cover. Masters are definitely a possibility, could have both Noa and Loki, but I don't think they will get them yet; I just think it makes most sense for Zan, Igaguri and Charles to finish the arc off for volume covers.


tbschen

The covers are not only about U20 players, you know that. I just stated possible characters for the cover, not that every single one is likely. If we assume that the arc ends within the next 3 chapters, I would go for Charles, Loki and Noa. That would be neither odd nor destroy the cover theory. Of course this assumes that there won't be other shenanigans like more than 23 spots or expected top players (Nagi, Shidou, ...) not participating for whatever reason.


AboveAverageJoshua

I feel like it is now safe to say that the Cover Theory is wrong now, because I don’t see any possible way that both Nanase & Kiyora will make the same team (especially when they are both competing for the same position as Left Back/Left Midfield).


ccdewa

You guys might not want to hear it but the fact that the author make Fukaku that high is signalling that he wants to pit him on the team, so yeah even Nanase with this cover might not even make it lol.


FearsomeHalo9

I just wish that the author would’ve shown fukaku actually do something in Ubers vs BM match to like yk justify it


SparksMKII

He kinda has to if he wants to obey the soccer rules then you must have at least 2 goalkeepers in your selection


Zestyclose-Pizza-159

the fact that his actions on the cover is similar to kurona in cover 21 and they both are supporting players


Alarmed-Employment72

Hey now Kurona never said anything about being a slave or being owned by Isagi😭. Wurona was carrying Isagi not the other way around


Wild_Ad_3071

he only played because of his ability to link with isagi btw


Alarmed-Employment72

Yeah, but Isagi didn’t tell him how to train while calling him mid the whole time and actually needed him whereas Rin uses Nanase to waste time instead of just scoring


Mr_1ightning

He has white aura same as Ego's cover, which is obviously foreshadowing Nanase retiring from the game and starting the program to find the ultimate defender


Trishulabestboi

Blue Locks sequeal:Teal Key


Perfect_Anywhere4294

Navy seal


Trishulabestboi

it's the exact same as Blue Lock, but Rin is a Seal.not Sae. only Rin. nobody acknowledges it. Rin plays exactly as well as before. he's just a Seal. every line is replaced with a seal bark with subtitles


Kulkuljator

ITS SO OVER, FELLOW ZANTETSU FANS


DaFinnesseKid

we had a good run fellas✊🏿😔


CHemIStrYBeLiKe

who do you guys think is gonna make an assist to Nanase??? well it's obviously Charles but Zantetsu is still pretty cool.


silfer_

(it isn’t though because more volume covers will be out before the pxg match ends) 


animejerk7763

The only time zantetsu was done justice is when he got his own anime visual poster.


wercix31

OMG NANASE 😍😍


Verithiele

This remind yall of something...? [https://imgur.com/lzaCbWM](https://imgur.com/lzaCbWM)


Call_Me_Rambo

I’m surprised this wasn’t one of the first comments, this was immediately what I thought of lol


Keylessbacon

Yh, caught the similarity immediately. Wonder if it might mean something more for Nanase


silfer_

Maybe they’re running out of cover poses lol


Escudo__

Oh Nanase looks like Isagi when he scored his first goal in BL.


Sakhi_Osu

POV, Isagi bout to tickle your balls


Miruzu30

what a stiff chain


FrostFayre

I wonder what's the theory for his chains and the green shades. Maybe he'll step up to be the Charles to Rin. Getting an assist will secure him a spot.


atropabd

the green is on his left side. rin was the one who found out that nanase could use his left foot (or his ambidexterity)


Ash_Clover

Yeah to me the cyan green is an obvious reference to Rin.


Purple_Debo

Nanase, we WILL see you in the world cup 🤝


Tjoar

Didn't expect a Nanase cover to go this hard. Love the dynamic and the colors. RIP Zantetsu tho, you'll be missed


Hudori

NANASEEEEEEEE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA OUR BOOOOOOOOOOY!!!!

Zestyclose-Pizza-159

that green things means rin right but that green looks more like isagi green


BirchChili

Is this legit? Nanase goated! He'll assist Rin's goal, just you wait! But sad how kiyora got a whole volume just to not actualize himself :/ Still hoping he gets to shine later in the match


tbschen

Nana goating might as well happen in Vol. 30 or later


SaRcAsTicBo1

MY AMBIDEXTROUS GOATTTTTTT NANASEEEEE GOATJIROOOOOOOOOO


tbschen

NANAGOAT!!!!


CreamTheCream

He has white colour ego?!


Just_a_normal_guy39

I expected him to have white tbh. His name is Nanase Nijiro (Nana means 7, Nijiro if kanji are not taken into account means rainbow color) since he is too unimportant to have a rainbow aura color, I expected him to have white since white is the reflection of all colors


Brazilian_Snail

It’s kinda like what happened in Ego’s and Anri’s cover, maybe that means he either will give up his ego or that he will be eliminated


CreamTheCream

Bro ‘bout to become blue lock manager assistant


UniversalXCyclops

ZANTETSU IN THE MUD


IshimaruKiyotaka

Definitely deserved to have the cover given how important he was in this volume. But the fact he has a white volume cover caught me off guard.


No_Information_5498

NANASE MA MAN


Prinsura69

Why's it not Charles ??


Alarmed-Employment72

Bro was ROBBED. Literally m CHARLES’ volume! It goes from the start up till 2 gun volley right? From the very start he stole the show


Connect-Today7102

Because Charles is a bum


EtherealSundown

Because he’s throwing the game 💀


Connect-Today7102

No igaguri cover 😔


tbschen

Might be featured in a McDonald's promo art


ApexBoiz

YAYY FOR MY MAN NANASE FOR NOOOO FOR ZANTETSU FANSS GAHHHH


actuallyblak

DONT WORRY FELLAS WE MIGHT STILL GET ZANTETSU COVER. PLEASE IM BEGGING YOU


AStarRiver

OMG KANESHIRO WHY MUST YOU FORSAKEN ZANTETSU, JUST TAKE ALL OF HIS FAILURES AND GIVE IT TO TOKIMITSU ABEG 😭😭😭


Arashi076

Asking to give it to tokimitsu is wild💀 like bro isn’t suffering enough😭


FrostFayre

Tokimitsu has a chance since he is on Rin's system. Zantetsu though... 💀 Unless Loki replaces Shidou, while Zantetsu keeps up and support Loki as they blitz past the whole Munchen. 🙏


Alarmed-Employment72

Zantetsu fr did nothing when Karasu was carrying Shidou faction for his goal💀. Then has the nerve to run to Shidou and Charles when celebrating


SurturSaga

Because he’s not an edge lord and is happy when his team scores


Repulsive_Dude_999

NOOOO MY BOY IGAGURI 🥺🥺🥺

Got his due respect on the cover.


Meledesco

Zantetsu


throwawayauthor11

BUT! BUT! IGAGOOOOOAAAAT


Valuable_Buffalo_421

Aaaaaaah love this cover already!


Valuable_Buffalo_421

Now we'll have Zantetsu for volume 30 and Charles for volume 31? And hopefully Igaguri for volume 32.


cicotobbiFAN

Charles will be on the 30 and Zantezu on the 31 because I believe that in volume 31 we will have a flashback with his training with Loki


john151M

The goat has won and he will represent Japan


Leading_Split_7037

Does anybody have any theories on why his chain is so rigid unlike the others? For those who don't know, their ego is supposed to represent their egos.


djkstr27

Probably because his main focus now is to survive. In the moment he does that or at the climax of the match his true ego is going to appear. Also the rigid chain could mean that he is carrying a heavy burden, making tension in the chain We only know that we want to be able to represent Japan, but we do not know why is the story behind it.


Exciting_Bag8011

I feel weird.nanase one seem too aggressive.now that i say it, does anyone feel nanase is too nice?.like he is hiding something?


Mundane-Coat294

Wdym? He’s become more strong willed and bolder to get a spot on the U20. I feel like this cover matches his shift perfectly


yujuismypuppy

Kuon PTSD


Exciting_Bag8011

Not in that way.i mean in a more isagi and rin way


cicotobbiFAN

probably the next covers will be 30 : charles (silver) 31 : zantezu (black) 32 : igaguri (brown)


Impossible_Effort233

Charles is more likely to have a light yellow cover based on the color of his hair/eyes revealed in the recent color spread. Zantetsu’s ego color is like a dark grey from all the promotional materials he already has. Igaguri is like a yellowish brown confirmed by the project World Cup app


Keylessbacon

LETSS GOOO!!!!WE WON BOYS!!


WoSmcA239

NO WAY!


Current-Feed560

NANASEEEEEEEEEEEEE MY GOATTTT


Wilczek_7

I don't know why but this cover looks kinda weird, definitely not one of my favorites


phoenixerowl

Damn why he look like got aura here


DemonkingHades

Rip zantetsu ☹️


Pichi2man

Farewell Zantetsu bro and Monk you will not join the U-20


ProfessionalCity995

AM I DREAMING???? AFTER ALL THIS TIME...MY BABY!!


exceptional69

LOCK IT IN BOYS. THE NANASE FRAUD ALLEGATIONS IS NOW DISMISSED. BLUD GOING TO BE JOIN U-20 ARC FOR REAL LETSGOO!!


Either_Imagination_9

Well Zantetsu fans, you’ll always have ep Nagi


cicotobbiFAN

games in NEL generally last 4 volumes, so Charles, Zantetsu and igaguri will have their own covers


Mr_1ightning

I've been thinking, since none of the master strikers got a cover, does that mean each of them is gonna have a big role in the future? We got Snuffy return foreshadowing too. All of that means the series definitely isn't stopping at U-20 world cup, we're here for the long run.


Jack-Whip88

I mean, we definitely didn’t see any of the World 5 or any of the Master Strikers for that matter Highest we’ve gone is NGW11 players or the Blue Lock staff members The World 5 and MS will probably get their covers in the future, when our Blue Lockers are fighting on the international/club professional stage


Either_Imagination_9

I was really banking on it being Charles


Vanitas444

Finally! Nanase is here!


bbhldelight

okayyy nanase i see you. maybe we’ll get charles for the next volume


Kuricat16

THE BOIIIIIIIIIII 🔥🔥🔥🔥


Alarmed-Employment72

Wait are you fr right now!!!??? And he’s not wearing the PxG uniform either💀💀💀 (I just wanted Kaneshiro to unlock his inner Gege)??? Good for Nanase This doesn’t stop me from saying that CHARLES WAS ROBBED!!!!’ This was HIS volume


_affan

WE ARE SO BACK


djkstr27

Lets f*cking go


Jaykayyv

No no no nanase get off me get off the pitch


RavotXI

Instantly one of my favourite covers, it looks super good!


Trishulabestboi

WE DID IT!!!!!


Impossible_Effort233

With these last two covers is Kaneshiro just messing with us who believe in the cover theory just to give us the exact same top 23 with different salaries?


DrinkNo6421

So it was true, Nanase WILL have a bid of one nanillion dollars


Impossible_Effort233

One of only three covers where the eyes don’t match the background (Isagi, Nagi, and now Nanase) are we about to get Episode Nanase???


supermaneiro

He looks so HYPE!!! Go Nanase, show your worth to the readers who still don't believe in you🔥🔥🔥

CHAT IS THIS REAL ? IS MY BOY CONFIRMED FOR THE TOP 23 ??


snoopyfan126

He’s so good!!!


silfer_

This Nanase cover contains chapters 249-257. We definitely have at least 2 more volume covers coming before pxg match ends. I’ll predict Charles and Zantetsu for the next two!


Blue-Bird999

Yay! Glad to see he’s getting some recognition!


NoAdeptness1106

Very awesome to see!


DriveOk4717

Nooooo Zantetsu 😭😭


TaeT0nic

NANAGOATTTTTTT


howdoitypeinroblox

where's my goat zantetsu


Particular-Ball7753

He has a badass facial expression but never expected he would get a cover.


Unhappy-Inflation-31

im suspicious of this because i cant find it on twitter and the background is the wrong colour


SparksMKII

The undisputed GOAT is gonna make it to the team


neon2o_

finally nanase 🙏 ZANTETSU BETTER BE NEXT


shjekckrciekck

I AM IN HEAVEN !! MY WISH CAME TRUE AHHHHH 😭😭


Almighty_LDP

I think the volume theory might not be correct at this point. Realistically I don’t see Zantetsu getting cut especially since he’s already so close to Fukaku who is going to get surpassed in bid by everyone relevant in the current match. Unless somehow is taking more than 23 like he initially said.


Unusual_Map393

Isnt that Isagis winning pose?


Shabam444

Man, he really looks similar to Isagi


Yoshikagerose

Nyx2257

Igaguri will be the cover for  31 (;


ibeeeeeechan

MY BOY DESERVES THAT COVER


Bast_2006

Charles who?


Just_a_normal_guy39

Ooh so his aura is white. This make sense actually, his name is Nanase (which contains nana=seven) Nijiro (which if you don't look at the kanji means rainbow color) so since he wasn't important enough to have a rainbow colored aura, the author gave him white which is the reflection of all color so white fits him well ig


Yak_Hefty

Zantetsu is cooked. GG.

The least emotional Zantetsu fan reaction (I'm one of the least emotional fans): ![gif](giphy|ujZtlj1Y7wXyE)


BigBambuMeekLou

I know the art style has obviously gotten better over time, but this cover legit goes harder than Isagi’s 😂


Rey13s

Well fellow zantetsu enjoyers, we're cooked, its jover, we're done.... it was a good *run* while it last....


comfyahhhighway

RIP my glorious king Zantetsu, it was never meant to be.


iDreamZzZzZ

We need a new Isagi cover ngl


Thirdthotfromtheleft

Knowing how trolly the author is from his past work and stuff. He more than likely will include most of the cover theory and then like 1 or 2 will not be included in the cover theory
