There are 14 episodes in Blue Lock season 2's U-20 arc. Given that the new season's focus on fewer matches, that makes sense to us. 11 episodes have aired to date.

While we originally expected the anime to run until January, the recent announcement that the show would come to an end with a two-part finale on December 28 put paid to the idea that Blue Lock season 2 would finish in 2025.

The story synopsis teases what to expect over the coming months. It reads: "After making it this far, 35 players stand, but now the Blue Lock program itself faces elimination from Japan’s very own U-20 National Team. Vicious rivals will have to team up to defeat the national youth team if any of them want a shot at the striker position. Can they put aside their egos long enough to win together, or will they lose divided?"
