Chishiya's past in Alice in Borderland is revealed through flashbacks, particularly in Season 2 of the live-action series. Before arriving in the Borderland, he was a medical student or doctor, specifically a pediatric surgeon.
His backstory highlights a deep disillusionment with the medical system and humanity. He witnessed and was even involved in a corrupt system where patients with connections to hospital higher-ups were prioritized over those in greater need. This led to tragic outcomes, such as a child patient dying due to the postponement of surgery. This experience greatly impacted Chishiya, causing him to lose faith in people and develop his characteristic apathy and cynicism. He became seemingly uncaring about human lives, feeling that life lacked meaning.
This past explains his detached, logical, and often manipulative demeanor in the Borderland. He uses his intelligence to navigate the deadly games, often with an indifferent attitude towards the suffering of others, as he felt he couldn't rely on anyone or care for those he would inevitably lose. However, his experiences in the Borderland, particularly during the King of Diamonds game, begin to challenge his nihilistic worldview and hint at a potential shift in his perspective on life and human connection.

Plot Overview
The story centers on Ryōhei Arisu (whose name is a Japanese phonetic version of "Alice"), a young, unemployed man obsessed with video games. One day, while hanging out with his friends, Daikichi Karube and Chōta Segawa, they find themselves mysteriously transported to an alternate, desolate version of Tokyo. The city is eerily empty, with no signs of other inhabitants.
Soon, Arisu and his friends realize they are trapped in a deadly game. To survive, they must participate in a series of "games", each with a specific difficulty and genre represented by playing cards:

• Spades (♠): Physical games, often requiring strength and endurance.
• Clubs (♣): Team-based games, testing cooperation.
• Diamonds (♦): Intellectual games, requiring strategy and intelligence.
• Hearts (♥): Psychological games, the most dangerous, often forcing players to betray each other or make difficult moral choices.
  Winning a game grants them "visas," which are essentially extensions of their lives. Failing to participate or losing a game results in instant death by a laser from the sky. As they navigate this brutal world, they encounter other players, forming alliances and rivalries, all while trying to uncover the truth behind the "Borderland" and find a way back home.

Shuntaro Chishiya is a prominent character in "Alice in Borderland," known for his distinctive appearance and complex personality.
Appearance:
Chishiya has dyed, slightly messy platinum blonde hair that reaches his shoulders. He has dark brown eyes and a noticeable mole under his left eye. He is often seen in a neat, immaculate school uniform, often with pens in his breast pocket. He is also described as being shorter than most of the people around him. His overall look is often perceived as sharp and mysterious.
Personality:
Chishiya is a highly intelligent, calm, and analytical individual, often appearing to be in a near-perpetual state of composure. He is soft-spoken, introverted, and reserved, and doesn't like sharing much about himself. This quiet and mysterious nature can sometimes make him seem cunning and deceitful.
He possesses a practical, often dark view of humanity, expecting death in the Borderland and prioritizing his own survival. He is known for his ability to think several steps ahead of others and to manipulate situations to achieve his goals. He can be quite sly and has even stated that he "loves messing with people who try too hard at life."
Despite his seemingly emotionless exterior, Chishiya is a complex character. His past as a medical student, where he witnessed how money influenced patient care, contributed to his jaded outlook and a loss of faith in humanity. However, he isn't entirely heartless; his humanity subtly persists due to his fear of death and, notably, his care for Kuina. While he often acts indifferently, he can't completely divorce himself from his feelings, making him a character that many find relatable, despite his morally ambiguous actions. He is often behind the scenes, observing others and the unfolding events, making calculated moves.
