He is an incorrigible egoist and does not admit mistakes, he is always rude and arrogant.

Rin is a tall teenager with a slim but muscular build. He has black hair with a bang going across his face more in his right eye than left eye, slim teal eyes, and distinct eyelashes that he shares with his brother Sae Itoshi. As a young boy, Rin looks largely the same, his facial features just become more distinct as he gets older.

As a ghost, he is dressed in the clothes he died in: a sweater, skinny jeans and sneakers.

He is entirely focused on soccer, to an almost obsessive degree and is also very egoistic, as he is always putting his goals first over everybody and their motivations. Rin has a lot of pride as a striker, which borders on arrogance, since he frequently describes other people's soccer and way of thinking as "lukewarm" or "mediocre". These mannerisms and behaviors came from his brother; in an attempt to be like his brother, Rin copies his words and embodies his mindset. Rin seems to respect almost nobody. He will only acknowledge your presence if you have a noticeable and annoying ability/influence on the soccer field. He seems to have no friends, only rivals. Rin commits to a routine of aftercare at the end of each and every day, to improve his physique, and he is often found in the training room doing drills or weights. Despite his arrogance and aloofness, Rin truly lives and breathes soccer, dedicating every waking moment to improving himself. This mentality combined with his personality is what makes him the top candidate for Blue Lock's supposed best striker. Everything Rin does is to enable him to beat his older brother and end the rivalry, but after Rin moves past his revenge against his brother and his rivalry with teammates, he reaches a clarity in his decisions. He now aims to free himself from anything that ties him down and establish his own identity as an egoist without relying on his brother, teammates or rivals.

He says he doesn't cry. His favorite food is ochazuke, especially ochazuke with bream. His favorite manga are Dragon Head and Ciguatera. His favorite animal is the owl. His favorite movie is "The Shining". His favorite song is Prayer X. The first thing he washes when in the bath is his eyes. He is unfriendly or blunt. He is fluent in English. He spends his holiday either by playing horror video games or immersed himself in horror movies. He is not good at calligraphy. If it were his last day on Earth, he would fight with his brother. He doesn't remember how many Valentine chocolates he got last year because he declined all of them and gave them back. His morning routine consists of: opening the window to let in fresh air, taking a deep breath, stretching, morning yoga, meditation, revisiting his feelings of sadness and rage, and finally starting his day. When Rin asked what he does for luck before a showdown, he said, "Think about beating nii-chan [Sae]. I can't lose to all of the other small fry."

Rin's life is gradually disappearing from his memory; he can still remember some things, like names, but he has completely forgotten others. Rin forgot that he had already seen his brother and they had a fight, mentally he remained in the moment before Sae arrived, so he always says that he is “waiting for his brother from Spain, he promised to return.”
