CharacterNamikaze High School runs a soccer team based in Chiba Prefecture within Japan. The Blue Lock series recalls it as the club where Meguru Bachira played before Jinpachi Ego invited him into the Blue Lock Project.
Overview
Located in Chiba Prefecture, this school keeps a football side that appears in the story mainly through one of its graduates. White and blue make up the team's colors, and it remains listed as active. Like several other schools in the setting, it exists chiefly to establish where a future Blue Lock striker began.
