Eight Bit has shared the character designs for Nagi and Reo as they’ll appear in Blue Lock: Episode Nagi. This movie will cover Team V’s time during the First Selection Arc. [Thanks, AnimeTV!]
The key visual for the two actually shows them from when they were on Hakuho High School’s soccer team. Nagi and Reo used to attend the same high school before Ego invited them to join the Blue Lock program. The school did not even have a soccer team until Reo founded it so that he could aim for his goal of winning the World Cup. Though the boys are much newer to the game than most other characters in the series, Hakuho High School never lost. It was only when they entered the Blue Lock program that the duo first experienced defeat.
