  Denji has a simple dream - to live a happy and peaceful life, spending time with a girl he likes. However, this is far from reality, as Denji is forced by the yakuza to kill demons to pay off his mounting debts. Using his pet demon Pochita as a weapon, he is willing to do anything for just a little cash.

Unfortunately, he was no longer useful and was killed by a demon under contract with the yakuza. However, in an unexpected turn of events, Pochita fuses with Denji's corpse and grants him the powers of a chainsaw demon. Now able to turn body parts into chainsaws, a revived Denji uses his new abilities to quickly and brutally destroy his enemies. To catch the eye of the demon hunters who officially arrived on the scene, he was offered a job at the Public Safety Bureau as one of them. Now with the means to face even the toughest enemies, Denji won't stop at anything to achieve his simple teenage dreams.

  After reflecting on the current Japanese football situation, the Japan Football Federation decided to hire the mysterious and eccentric coach Jinpachi Ego to achieve their dream of winning the World Cup. Believing Japan is missing a selfish striker hungry for goals, Jinpachi initiates Blue Lock – a prison-like facility where three hundred talented strikers from high schools across Japan are isolated and pitted against each other. The only person to survive Blue Lock will win the right to become a striker of the national team, and those who are defeated will be banned from the team permanently.

Selected to participate in this venture is Yoichi Isagi, a striker who failed to take his high school soccer team to the national tournament. After choosing to pass to a missing teammate instead of scoring on his own, he couldn't help but wonder if the result would have been different if he had been more selfish. Using this golden opportunity presented by the Green Lock Project, Yoichi aims to clear doubts and pursue his ultimate wish — to become the greatest striker in the world and lead Japan to World Cup glory.

  Great heroes and evil villains are the kind of characters people aspire to — but not Cid Kagenou. He aspires to be the real mastermind behind it all, pulling the strings and letting his intrigue dictate the whole story. In his past life in present-day Japan, he was unable to achieve his goal. But now, reborn into a world of magic, he will manifest the true nature of the shadow!

When Cid pretends to be just another normal mob figure, he recruits members into his (fake) organization Shadow Garden, aiming to destroy the mysterious cult lurking in the shadows. With so many ad-libs, Cid leads his (fake) organization against the evil (but surprisingly) Diabolos Cult.
