He has pink irises with silty white pupils like a cat's, and is similar in height and build to Rin Itoshi. He is very expressive and is often seen smiling.

In Blue Lock, Shidou wears the standard suit (black with blue stripes) and the tracksuit.

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 the drive to play soccer because it's a biological phenomenon that makes him feel whole. Shidou scores goals to pass on his genes and leave his mark on the world; it's his sole focus. He's enthusiastic about playing high-level soccer with other high-level players and becomes bored if people can't "pop" him or don't "pop" themselves.

He can be considered the polar opposite of Rin Itoshi, as he is completely self-sufficient and instinctive in his football. A notable trait of Shidou's has been his propensity for violence to get what he wants, and he is often unwilling to work with most people (if 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 to cause grievous bodily harm to others.

He seems to overcome these feelings when he is freed from his behavioral captivity by Sae Itoshi, who asks him to join him in playing high-level soccer and is allowed to act as he pleases, as long as it is for Sae's sake.

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 soccer he had never experienced before. Shidou can also be openly and unnecessarily sexual at times, and while prone to violence, he also learns to control his violent outbursts in exchange for playing high-level soccer for longer. Shidou is capable and willing to acknowledge other people's abilities.

Archetype Goal Poacher: Goal Poachers are forwards who wait in the six-yard box or penalty area for a cross, pass, or loose ball and pounce on it to try and score a goal. "Poaching" refers to the fact that they often score at the slightest opportunity, i.e., steal a goal. Goal Poachers usually play as center forwards or second strikers. Shidou, with his sharp reflexes and monstrous instincts, has an uncanny ability to position himself in a critical spot in the penalty area and score goals that most players wouldn't even think of attempting. His self-sufficient style of play revolves around positioning himself perfectly towards the goal while waiting for the ball and scoring goals. Shidou also has a tendency to shoot in the air and can even do so without looking, a testament to his skill as a goal poacher. He is an expert at producing monstrous goals from inappropriate positions. Superior Soccer Technique: Shidou is one of two Blue Lock players with top-tier stats, along with Rin Itoshi. During the Third Selection, he scored an average of 2 goals per game, the most of any player besides Rin. His physical dominance, ball control, power, and kicking accuracy can only be rivaled by a handful of players. While Rin can be described similarly, what separates the two is Shidou's reliance on scoring goals alone, even causing a physical altercation if his experience of the game is hindered in any way, while Rin combines with his surroundings to score. Shidou's skill and ego are so advanced that Sae, a genius from the professional world, recognized him and asked him to join him on the Japanese U-20 team.

Dominant Physique: Shidou is physically one of the strongest and most dominant players in Blue Lock. His physical strength alone was enough to make Gurimu Igarashi feel as if his skull was being crushed. For a more objective demonstration, Shidou was able to dropkick Rensuke Kunigami, a physically imposing player. Shidou can take advantage of his superior physical ability over opponents (such as the more technique-focused Reo Mikage) and outmaneuver them in an off-ball fight. He does this in a variety of ways, using his and his opponent's bodies to create momentum and outrun them, or even leapfrogging them entirely. Aggressive Dribbling: Shidou uses his physical strength to move around the field erratically, whether with or without the ball at his feet. These movements can confuse even his teammates and opponents. Extreme Spatial Awareness: Shidou's primary ability is his extreme spatial perception. Unlike other types of spatial awareness that take into account a player's positions and weapons, Shidou's spatial awareness is goal-oriented at all times. This is the key to his perfect goalscoring ability inside the box, as Shidou is able to "see" the goal whenever he is in the box, even without physically facing it. In addition to this, when in "Stream," Shidou is able to perceive the location of the goal even outside the range of the penalty area.

Reflexes: Shidou is capable of reflexively taking into account his position and his opponents in order to leverage their weapons and achieve an ideal shot. His reflexes and speed grant him the ability to reach any spot on the field faster than others, and his natural ability to use all parts of his body optimally allows him to perform incredible physical feats that are uncommon even for those in Blue Lock. He has demonstrated this several times, but most notably when he scored a goal in the Japan U-20 National Team match, reacting instantly to Sae's high-speed pass. It is Shidou's unmatched instincts that make him such a potent goalscorer in and around the box, cementing him as one of Blue Lock's most dangerous forwards. Drive Shot: A precise and powerful shot usually used from a distance and serving as Shidou's primary scoring method. Shidou is capable of taking a shot from a multitude of positions, whether unfavorable or not. Shidou can avoid having to reset his position by utilizing his superior physique and immense reflexes to perform the Drive Shot. Bicycle Kick: An acrobatic kick in which a player kicks a ball backward into the air. Bicycle kicks can be used defensively to clear the ball from the goal or offensively to hit the opponent's goal in an attempt to score. Shidou first performs this move in his debut match against Kunigami and Reo and effortlessly scores a goal over Kunigami, breaking through his defense completely. No-Look Goal: A skill few forwards in the world can achieve; Shidou leaps for the ball while his back is to the goal and instinctively shoots without looking. This shot is incredibly fast and unpredictable, making it difficult to react to.

Backspin Shot: When receiving the ball with his back to the goal, Shidou backs into an opponent and uses his physical strength to hold them in place, using his body weight to rotate in place and elevate himself in an incredibly fast shooting motion. Dragon Drive: A shot made possible by combining his extreme reflexes with Sae's. While running at full speed, Shidou leaps around an opposing defender and executes a jumping volley while using his signature kick, the Drive Shot. This shot was powerful and fast enough to score from outside the penalty area with little reaction from other players on the field. Demon Shot: A powerful volley shot that he was able to perform after receiving a very fast high arcing pass from Charles and that according to Gagamaru, there was no way Shidou could receive it. Flow: Flow, as described by Ego, is the state of "total immersion" or "being in the zone." It is the state of mind in which a person engaged in an activity is completely immersed in a feeling of energized focus, total participation, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. Shidou entered "Flow" in the middle of the Japan U-20 National Team match, inspired by the passes he received from Sae and being pressured by the Blue Lock 11 defense. This led him to push his physical and perceptual abilities to the extreme and score a stunning goal. Big Bang Drive: When he enters "Current", Shidou can push his spatial awareness beyond its limit, 'sensing' the goal's location and performing a long-range bicycle kick, which lands directly in the goal. He used this to score directly off a clearance without having to readjust his position in the match against Blue Lock's 11.

Her favorite musical artist is Hide and her favorite song is Hide - Pink Spider. If I were to impulsively buy something at a convenience store, it would be a Baby Star ramen. Her favorite food is yukhoe. Her only food she can't stand is bean sprouts. He is the best fighter at the Blue Lock facility. If I were given 100 million yen, I would divide it into 100 domino pieces (like blocks and play them like dominoes). His favorite movie is A Clockwork Orange. His favorite animal is the velociraptor (he thinks the way they eat people is cute). His favorite subjects are Physical Education and Art. He is apparently ambidextrous. His morning routine consists of: going out naked onto the balcony and sunbathing, dancing however he wants, shouting whatever comes to mind ("things like capillaries and broken flesh!!"). When asked how old he was when he stopped receiving gifts from Santa, he said, "It's a lot more fun getting presents yourself instead of getting them from that fat, red-and-white, middle-aged guy." When asked what the last thing he asked Santa for was, he said, "A world where Santa disappears." Shidou is the most popular boy at the school where he studies.
