Written by Muneyuki Kaneshiro and illustrated by Yusuke Nomura, the story of Blue Lock began with Japan’s elimination from the 2018 FIFA World Cup. The elimination prompted the Japan Football Union to start a program for high school football players in preparation for the 2022 World Cup. The Union initiates a prison-like training institution called Blue Lock, which isolates 300 young forwards and puts them through rigorous training to create “the world’s greatest egoistic striker”. Blue Lock began its serialization in Kodansha’s Weekly Shounen Magazine in August 2018.
Written by ONE, the One-Punch Man manga tells the story of a superhero named Saitama. As a superhero, Saitama can defeat his enemy with only a single punch, which leads him to be titled “One-Punch Man”. However, because of his strong power, he has become bored and frustrated with winning all his battles so easily. Fortunately, he meets Genos, another superhero who is amazed at Saitama’s power. From this meeting, he meets new superheroes and new enemies, which gradually changes his boring life.
