Chapter Text
Host Ego Jinpachi stood in front of a luxury villa surrounded by palm trees, artificial waterfalls, and more hidden cameras than a national security agency. He wore a flamingo-print shirt and sunglasses like he was ready to ruin someone’s life—in the name of “love.”
“Welcome, love birds, to Love Island! Where egos are big, shirts are optional, and the only goal is to become the #1 Power Couple in Japan. Will you find love—or get eliminated in shame?”
“Here come the players of the game!” Ego announced.
The first to arrive was Nagi Seishiro. He wore a hoodie over his swim trunks and carried his bag with one hand and a gaming console in the other. He sighed and collapsed onto the first lounger.
“I didn’t sign up for this. Reo made me.”
As if summoned by the mention of his name, Reo Mikage arrived a moment later, he showed up in designer swimwear that probably cost more than a college degree.
“Nagi! You didn’t even wait for me to walk in together! We practiced that!”
Nagi didn’t even look up from his console.
“Too much effort.”
Reo came up to him, arms crossed but smiling.
“Don’t take that as an excuse. Now get up—we have to look like a couple people would bet money on.”
“We’re going to win this, Nagi. I already planned our outfits for the next three weeks.”
From the confession cam:
Reo: “We’re not just going to survive—we’re going to dominate. This villa is our stage.”
Nagi: “As long as he does all the talking .Then sure, I'm good.”
Couple #1 locked and loaded.
Next, Bachira Meguru showed up, wearing pineapple-printed swim trunks and sunglasses shaped like stars. He had a pool float shaped like a giant bee under one arm and a water gun in the other.
“Wassup, lovebugs! I’m here to steal hearts and maybe a few snacks!”
He jump right into the pool fully clothed. Isagi Yoichi, walking in right on time, dragging his suitcase.
“Bachira, please don’t drown on the first day…”
Bachira flopped over the edge of the pool and grinned at him.
“Yoichi, my soulmate! Let’s partner up! We’ll be the monster couple!”
From a nearby confessional cam:
Bachira: “We has no idea what’s coming. But I’m gonna paint our love across the whole villa!”
Not long after that, the villa exploded. A door slammed open with violent enthusiasm.
“Yo, where the hell’s the champagne?”
Shidou Ryusei had arrived. He stormed in shirtless, wearing leopard print swim shorts and a chain with his own name on it. Like a predator let loose in a petting zoo.
He ripped off his sunglasses and bared his teeth.
“This place better have a hot tub and zero rules.”
Before Ego could call security, Sae Itoshi entered in silent, deadly fashion. The air grew ten degrees colder.
“I was tricked into this.” Sae said.
Shidou lit up like a kid in a candy store when he spotted Sae.
“SAE-BAE. Missed me? Don’t fight it, baby.”
“I will murder you”
Confessional cam later:
Shidou: “I’m only doing this because the winner gets 10 million yen and a chance to legally stab someone on live TV.”
Last but not least, the final couple showed up. The villa’s entrance lit up with golden spotlights that no one had installed. Somehow, there was dramatic orchestral music playing. Michael Kaiser stepped onto the red carpet. Wearing a silk robe, designer slippers, and a smirk worth a million yen.
“Ah… how dissapointing. This is nothing different from a five-star resort for peasants.”
Exactly two steps behind, Alexis Ness followed like an adoring moon orbiting his sun. He held an umbrella for Kaiser even though it wasn’t raining, and carried both of their bags.
“You’re going to win this effortlessly, Kaiser.”
“No doubt. The only question is which camera angle makes the best out of me.”
From the confession booth later:
Kaiser: “It’s not about love. It’s about dominance. And Ness is the only one qualified to rule beside me.”
Camera cuts to the dark command room. Screens flash with footage of players flirting, fighting, and fake-laughing in the villa. Sitting in his chair, fingers steepled, eyes gleaming with dangerous delight, is none other than... Ego Jinpachi.
He turns to face the camera with the kind of unblinking stare:
“Welcome, viewers, to Love Island—the ultimate battlefield where passion and power collide!”
Ego Jinpachi: “Tch. You fools thought this was just about love? This is a combat arena—disguised as a paradise.”
He stands, walking slowly past floating holograms of each couple.
“You have exactly 28 days. Four weeks. One villa. Zero mercy. Each day brings you closer to destruction—or evolution.”
Ego clasps his hands behind his back and begins pacing, like a mad professor explaining a social experiment.
“Eight of Blue Lock’s most elite players have been dropped into this villa. Not to score goals—but to score each other.”
Rule number 1: “Each week, one major challenge will strike at the core of your romantic bond”
Rule number 2: “Twists are guaranteed. At any time, I may introduce new players, force a partner swap, or launch a game that reveals everyone’s darkest emotional weaknesses. Why? Because I can.”
“Kaiser-sama doesn’t get twisted. He twists others” Ness said.
Rule number 3: “Public voting = power. Every week, the audience will vote on their favorite couple. The most beloved pair gets luxury benefits, date nights and more. The least liked couple? Well... they’re one tantrum away from elimination.”
Ego smirks.
“The final couple standing will win 10 million yen, a luxury vacation, and the official Blue Lock Ultimate Power Couple title. But—only if they survive the final compatibility challenge.”
“We’re winning and making enemies. God, I loved this already!” Shidou cheered cheerfully.
Ego leans closer into the camera, voice going lower and more intense.
“But remember—this isn’t about finding love. It’s about who can weaponize love and come out on top. Now go... fall in love. Or fall apart.”
He leans forward, staring directly into the camera.
“Fall hard. Play dirty. Trust no one but your ego.”
He slams a red button. Alarms flash. Cameras zoom in.
“Let the games begin.”
