Blue Lock chapter 236: Hiori Yo may quit playing football

In Blue Lock chapter 236, titled "Sayonara," Hiori Yo becomes disheartened when his shot is successfully blocked by Sendo Shuto. Despite enduring many struggles and hardships, Hiori no longer believes that football is his destined path. Consequently, he resolves to leave the sport after the match, return home, and share his decision with his parents.

Isagi sprinted towards Bastard Munchen's goal, urging Hiori to react instinctively. It was advice Hiori had once given Isagi, so hearing it come from him now left Hiori in shock.

In that moment, Hiori contemplated the expectations of both his parents and Isagi. Comparing the two, he understood that his parents placed importance on his accomplishments, while Isagi solely focused on achieving his own ultimate goal. Isagi didn't seek out Hiori's presence, but rather enlisted his talents to score his extraordinary goal. It was this very reason that everyone found themselves drawn to Isagi.
