Shido

Ryusei Shido (士し道どう 龍りゅう聖せい, Shidō Ryūsei?) is a contender of the Blue Lock who played as a center forward for France's Paris X Gen during the Neo-Egoist League.

Shidou, unlike most forwards, has no concrete dream of becoming the world's best striker. He instead seeks to enjoy life to the fullest by playing football; through scoring unique, creative, and "explosive" goals.

Out of the original 300 forwards chosen to be a part of the Blue Lock Project, Shido is an ideal candidate for the type of striker Ego strives to create. After the Blue Lock Eleven played against the Japan U-20, Shido ranked as one of the top players in Blue Lock.

Following the end of the 5th round of the Neo Egoist League, and being ranked 3rd in the final rankings, Shido qualified to become one of the 23 players for the new Japan U-20. Appearance Shidou is a tall, tanned young man with spiky blond hair with fading pink at the tips, having two strands falling on both sides of his face. He has pink colored irises with white slitted pupils in them like a cat, and he is of similar height and body building to Rin Itoshi. He is very expressive and is often seen with a joker-like grin or smirk.

During the second half of the Japan U-20 match, Shidou dons the #13 U-20 jersey with a black shirt under it and shorts. Personality Shido is an eccentric player in Blue Lock who has a strong penchant for violence or, more specifically, physical altercations. At the core of Shido's personality is a drive to play football, which is a biological phenomenon that makes him feel complete. Shido scores goals to pass on his genes and leave his mark on the world; it is his sole focus. He gets excited from playing high-level football with other high-level players and is bored if people cannot make him "explode" or don't "explode" themselves.

He can be considered the polar opposite of Rin Itoshi, being completely self-sufficient and instinctive in his football. A noticeable trait of Shido's has been his propensity for violence to get what he wants, often being unwilling to work with most people (if anybody at all). He seems completely aware and content with the toxicity of his behavior and only feels slight remorse once he is electrocuted and locked up for being overly aggressive and threatening serious bodily injury to others. He seems to get over such feelings when Sae Itoshi releases him from his behavioral captivity, who asks him to join him in playing high-level football and is cleared to act however he wants as long as it's for Sae's sake. When released from Blue Lock under Sae's supervision, he seems to be even more openly violent and causes frequent quarrels with the Japan U-20 team's ace player Shuto Sendo, who initially doesn't respect Sae.

Shido can be openly friendly and even affectionate towards others, such as Sae Itoshi, who gave him the opportunity to play with him and evolved his level of play in the process, showing him a type of football he has never experienced before. Shido can also be overtly and unnecessarily sexual at times, and though he is prone to violence, he also learns how to control his violent rampages in exchange for playing high-level football longer. Shido is able and willing to acknowledge other people's skills, praising Isagi for making the "best play" of the first game of the Third Selection (when Rin wouldn't) despite Isagi stealing a goal from him. By the time of the Neo-Egoist League, Shido is able to control his anger and violence enough to share the field with his most hated rival, Rin Itoshi.

Abilities Archetypes Forwards: also known as strikers, have the main objective of scoring goals. They are often the players who get the most attention since their role is designed to be in a scoring position. They also take part in penalty kicks and corner kicks when the opposing team kicks the ball out of bounds. They are normally the players in charge of starting off the game at the start and halftime. Goal Poacher: Goal poachers are forwards who wait in the six-yard box or the penalty area for a cross, pass, or loose ball and pounce to try to score a goal. "Poaching" refers to the fact that they will often score a goal out of the slightest of opportunities, i.e., steal a goal. Goal poachers usually play as center forwards or second strikers.

Shido, with his sharp reflex and monster instinct, has an uncanny ability to position himself at a critical point in the penalty box and score goals that most players wouldn't even think to attempt. His self-sufficient play style revolves around him positioning himself perfectly towards the goal as he waits for the ball and scores goals. Shido also has tendencies to take shots in midair and can even do so without looking, a testament to his skill as a poacher. He is an expert at producing monstrous goals from inadequate positions. Skills Superior Football Technique: Shido is one of two players in Blue Lock who have top-tier stats, along with Rin Itoshi. During the Third Selection, he scored an average of 2 goals a game, the highest of any player besides Rin. A handful of players only rival his physical dominance, ball control, power, and kick accuracy. Though Rin can be described similarly, what separates the two is Shido's confidence in scoring goals alone, even if his experience of the game is hampered in any way, while Rin combines with his environment to score. Shido's skill and ego are so advanced that he was recognized by Sae, a genius of the professional world, and asked to join him on the Japan U-20 team. With Sae's guidance, Shido is able to evolve his level of play to new heights, scoring outrageous goals and forming a deadly duo that the Blue Lock Eleven struggled to deal with. Dominant Physicality: Shido is physically one of the strongest and most dominant players in Blue Lock. His physical strength alone was enough to make Gurimu Igarashi feel like his skull was getting crushed. For a more objective demonstration, Shido was able to kick back Rensuke Kunigami, himself a physically imposing player. Shido is able to leverage his superior physical ability over opponents (such as the more technique-focused Reo Mikage) and break past them in an off-the-ball fight. He does this in a variety of ways, using his body and his opponent's to create momentum to break past them, or even jumping over them altogether. Aggressive Dribble: Shido uses his physical strength to move across the field erratically, either with the ball at his feet or without it. These movements can confuse even his teammates, along with his opponents. High Acceleration: As Reo states in their match in the Second Selection, he appearing immediately in front of him surprises him and acknowledges his speed. Extreme Spatial Awareness: Shido's main ability is his extreme spatial perception. As opposed to other types of spatial awareness that take into account the players' positions and weapons, Shido's spatial awareness is geared towards the goal at all times. This is the key to his perfect scoring ability within the penalty area, since Shido is able to "see" the goal whenever he is in the penalty area, even without physically facing it. In addition to this, when he is in Flow, Shido is able to perceive the location of the goal even outside the range of the penalty area.Reflexivity: Shido is able to reflexively take into account his position and his opponents to leverage his weapons for an ideal shot. His reflexes and speed grant him the ability to get to any point on the field faster than others could, and his natural ability to use all of his body parts optimally allows him to perform incredible physical feats that are uncommon even to those at Blue Lock. He has shown this multiple times, most notably when he scored a goal in the Japan U-20 match, instantly reacting to Sae's high-speed pass. It is Shido's unrivaled instincts that make him such a potent scorer in and around the penalty area, establishing him as one of the most dangerous strikers in Blue Lock. Drive Shot: An accurate and powerful shot that is usually used from range, serving as Shido's main method of scoring. Shido is able to perform a drive shot from a multitude of positions, whether it is unfavorable or not. Shido is also able to avoid having to reset his positioning by using his superior physique and immense reflexes to make the Drive Shot happen. Bicycle Kick: An acrobatic strike where a player kicks an airborne ball rearward in midair. Bicycle kicks can be used defensively to clear away the ball from the goalmouth or offensively to strike at the opponent's goal in an attempt to score. Shido first performs this move in his debut match against Kunigami and Reo and scores an effortless goal on Kunigami, breaking down his defense completely. No-Look Goal: A skill that few strikers in the world can pull off; Shido jumps for the ball while turned away from goal and instinctively takes a shot without looking. This shot is incredibly fast and unpredictable, making it hard to react to. Reverse Spinning Drive Shot: When receiving the ball with his back to goal, Shido backs into an opponent and uses his physical strength to hold them in place, using their body weight to rotate on the spot and rising into an incredibly quick shooting motion. Dragon Drive: A shot made possible when combining his extreme reflexes with Sae's. While running at top speed, Shido leaps around an opposing defender and executes a jumping volley while using his signature kick, the Drive Shot. This shot was powerful and fast enough to score from outside the penalty area with little reaction from the other players on the field.Dragon Drive Heading: A combination of his reflexivity and dominant physicality, Shido runs to a preferred location and attempts to headbutt the ball. Given that he is moving at top speed and angled correctly, he acts almost like a bullet as he transfers all of his energy to the ball, allowing it to fly at an incredibly fast speed. Shido is able to apply so much power to this headbutt that not even Gin Gagamaru was able to stop it. Flow State: Flow, as Ego describes it, is the state of "total immersion" or "being in the zone." It is the mental state in which a person performing some activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. The Blue Lock Eleven defense put pressure on Shido, inspiring him to enter Flow during the Japan U-20 match as he received passes from Sae. This led to him pushing his physical and perceptive abilities to their extremes, allowing him to score a super goal. Big Bang Drive: When he enters Flow, Shido is able to push his spatial awareness past its limit, "feeling" the location of the goal and performing a long-range bicycle kick, which lands directly in the goal. He used this to score directly from a clearance without having to reset his positioning in the U-20 match. The majority of this information is from the official Egoist Bible. His birthplace is Tokyo, Japan.[16] His favorite manga is Chainsaw Man.[17] His favorite soccer player is Zlatan Ibrahimović.[18] His favorite music artist is Hide, and his favorite song is Hide - Pink Spider.[19] If he impulsively bought something from a convenience store, it would be a Baby Star ramen. His favorite food is yukhoe.[20] His least favorite food is beansprouts.[21] He is the best fighter in the Blue Lock facility. If he received 100 million yen, he would divide them into 100 domino pieces (like into blocks) and play them like dominoes.[22] His favorite movie is A Clockwork Orange. His favorite animal is the velociraptor (he finds the way they eat people cute).[23] His favorite subjects are Physical Education and Arts. He is apparently ambidextrous.[24] On the question "Who is the best gentleman?" Shido ranks third in the list of the "Three Worst," after Sendo and Otoya. His morning routine consists of going onto the balcony naked and soaking up the sunlight, dancing however he likes, and yelling whatever comes to his mind ("stuff like capillaries and flesh rupture!!").[25] When asked how old he was when he stopped getting presents from Santa, he said: "It's much more fun obtaining presents by yourself instead of receiving them from that red-white-middle-aged-fattie." When asked what was the last thing he asked Santa for, he said: "A world where Santa disappears." If it were his last day on Earth, he would watch it end. When Shido asked what he does for luck before a showdown, he said, "Take a sh*t."[25] When asked when was the last time he cried, he said he last cried at the end of the day when he became nothing.

Relationships: Sae Itoshi Shidou and Sae were temporary teammates on the Japan U-20 team for the Blue Lock Eleven vs. Japan U-20 arc. Shidou showed deep interest in Sae many times, and the two frequently flirted with each other throughout the arc. Shidou and Sae frequently flirt with one another, like making suggestive innuendos and comments, and using playful nicknames.Japan U-20 Arc The arc starts off with Ego Jinpachi naming the eleven starting players for the Blue Lock vs. U-20 match. Ego states that even though Shidou is the second-best striker in all of Blue Lock, he had zero chemistry with the other players and that there is not a single player in Blue Lock that has the ability to understand/ handle Shidou’s personality or playstyle. So instead of Shidou playing for the Blue Lock Eleven as a starter, he was specially handpicked by Sae Itoshi to join the U-20 team.Their first introduction to each other is when Sae tells Shidou that Blue Lock is too small of a cage for him. He tells Shidou to hand over his ego and go wild for Sae’s sake. Shidou first reacts angrily but is much more intrigued by the end of the scene.

During the second half of the match, Shidou is finally subbed in. He and Sae pair up instantly, overwhelming not only the other team but their own teammates as well. A fellow U-20 player Oliver Aiku even comments on how Shidou and Sae are a match made in heaven.After an incident with another player, Shidou is rewarded with a free-kick opportunity to score. During this, he and Sae work together to plan the very best route Shidou can take to score his goal. Sae encourages him to think outside of the box and imagine his very best goal rather than the “realistically possible” goal. Shidou quickly comes up with his ideal goal and tells Sae that he says very exciting things. Sae tells him that this is the time to dream and to fall under his spell. Shidou responds by asking if he’s Cinderella now, then say’s he’s falling in love. Together, Shidou and Sae score the goal.After their goal, Shidou compliments Sae on his assistance. He tells Sae he likes him and asks for his number. Sae says he’ll give it over if Shidou scores a hat trick (a hat trick is when a player scores three goals in a game). Shidou now looks even more excited than he was before.

After a pass from Sae to Shidou, Shidou compares playing football with Sae to the feeling of electricity pulsing through his brain. Sae asks him to elaborate, and he answers by saying that he doesn’t really know, but this is the first time he’s ever felt that his freedom has been understood by someone. Shidou blushes and comments on his excitement again. Sae reminds him that he still needs to score his goal before he gets too excited.

At the end of the U-20 match, Shidou scored his required hat trick and reminds Sae of his promise to give Shidou his number. Sae responds teasingly by asking if he can at least shower before he gives it over.
