Yoichi Isagi is the protagonist of Blue Lock. He's one of 300 players selected for the Blue Lock Project, where he competes as #299. A former second-year striker at Ichinan High, he's driven by a desire to become a world-class player like Noel Noa.
What makes Isagi interesting is his internal conflict as a striker. He's genuinely skilled at staying composed under pressure and works well with teammates, but he wrestles with what it means to be truly selfish on the field—the kind of ruthlessness great strikers need. That tension defines him.
His turning point came during a crucial high school match. With his team desperate for a goal, he found himself one-on-one with the opposing goalkeeper on a breakaway. Instead of shooting, he passed to a teammate, who missed. The loss stung hard and cost his team a shot at the Interhigh tournament. That regret—that moment of hesitation—is what led him to accept his invitation to Blue Lock. The project promises to rebuild everything he thought he understood about himself as a player, making it a life-changing opportunity to finally figure out what kind of striker he's meant to be.
