Shidou Ryusei

Ryusei Shidou (士し道どう 龍りゅう聖せい, Shidō Ryūsei?) is a contender of the Blue Lock, who currently plays for France's Paris X Gen. 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. 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 match against the Japan U-20 team, Shidou ranked as one of the top players in Blue Lock.

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 silted 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, Shido dons the #13 U-20 jersey with a black shirt under it and shorts.

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 because it 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 a 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 onto others.
