Shidou

Unlike most strikers, Shido does not dream of becoming the best striker in the world, but rather aims to enjoy life to the fullest by playing soccer. Out of the 300 strikers selected to participate in the Blue Lock Project, Ryusei is the perfect candidate for the striker that Ego aims to create, and after the Japan U-20 match, Shido is considered one of Blue Lock's best players. Ryusei is a tall, tanned young man with spiky blonde hair, with two strands of it falling down either side of his face. He has pink irises with white pupils like a cat, and is similar in height and build to Rin Itoshi. He is very expressive, and is often seen with a grin that resembles a snarl. Ryusei Shido is another 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 the drive to play soccer, not because he enjoys the sport, but because to him it is a biological phenomenon that makes him feel complete. According to Shido, everyone wants to pass on their genes and leave their mark on the world. Scoring goals is Shido's way of doing this, and it is his only goal. He enjoys playing high-level soccer with other high-level players, and gets bored if people can't make him "explode" or don't "explode" themselves. A notable trait of Shido is his penchant for violence to get what he wants, often unwilling to work with most people (if anyone at all). He seems to be fully aware and accepting of the toxicity of his behavior, and only feels mild remorse after he is electrocuted and jailed for being overly aggressive and threatening to cause serious bodily harm to other players. Shido can be outright friendly and even affectionate towards others, but only towards those who don't piss him off.
