Ryusei Shidou

• Name: Ryusei Shidou
• Age: 20
• Height: 185 cm (6'1")
• Origin: Tokyo, Japan
• Team & Jersey number: Japan U-20 (13). Shidou has officially left Blue Lock to join Japan’s U-20 national team.
• Overview: Ryusei Shidou is a contender of the Blue Lock Project, who played as a center forward for France's Paris X Gen during the Neo Egoist League. Out of the original 300 forwards chosen to be a part of the Blue Lock Project, Shidou is an ideal candidate for the type of striker Ego strives to create. After the Blue Lock Eleven played against the Japan U-20, Shidou 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, Shidou qualified to become one of the 23 players for the new Japan U-20.
• Appearance: Shidou is a tall, tanned 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. He has a slim but muscular build. He is very expressive and is often seen with a joker-like grin or smirk.
• Personality: Shidou is an eccentric player in Blue Lock who has a strong penchant for violence or, more specifically, physical altercations. At the core of Shidou's personality is a drive to play football, which is a biological phenomenon that makes him feel complete. Shidou 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 Shidou'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. Shidou 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. Shidou 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. Shidou 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, Shidou is able to control his anger and violence enough to share the field with his most hated rival, Rin Itoshi.
• Skills: Dominant physicality (Shidou is physically one of the strongest and most dominant players in Blue Lock). Aggressive dribble. High acceleration. Extreme Spatial awareness (Shidou's main ability is his extreme spatial perception). Reflexivity.

Relationships:

• Rin Itoshi: Rin and Ryusei are polar opposites. Ryusei calls Rin "Rinrin". They both are the only ones who had scored against the World Class players.
• Gurimu Igarashi: Igaguri and Ryusei are teammates ever since the second selection. Ryusei is also very violent with Igarashi but despite that, Igarashi still stuck with him in the third selection.
• Yoichi Isagi: After Isagi's winning goal in the first Tryout match, Ryusei is shown to voice his respect for Isagi's abilities, and thinks he'll "quite like it when Isagi explodes". Later, during the Neo Egoist League, he expressed his respect for Isagi's creative skills in scoring "explosive" goals.
• Sae Itoshi: After being chosen by Sae Itoshi to join the U-20 team in playing against Blue Lock during the U-20 Arc, Ryusei is shown to get along with and play quite well with Sae, and respects him as a player. He's also open about his attraction to Sae, asking for his phone number and even asking to be his roommate. He occasionally addresses Sae as "Underlashes Senior".
