Rin Itoshi (糸師 凛, Itoshi Rin?) is a Blue Lock project contender, currently playing as a center forward for the Japanese U-20 national team in the U-20 World Cup.

Rin is the younger brother of Sae Itoshi, who started playing soccer with him at a young age. He has played as a striker on every team he's been on and has always been regarded as one of the best players. Rin's main goal is to become the best striker in the world. He used to be obsessed with beating his brother at soccer and, in turn, getting revenge for abandoning their shared dream, but after Blue Lock's 11 played against the Japanese U-20 National Team, he put aside his revenge and decided to change so he could become the best striker in the world.

although now he wears a male uniform from the Demon Slayers guild

This fighting style was created by Shinobu Kochō using slight variations of the Water and Flower Breathing techniques. It is a style that mimics the movements of insects, primarily their stinging and killing abilities, combining the technique with the user's own movements, techniques, and abilities. The techniques primarily, if not all, consist of stabbing and making shallow cuts with a specially coated/crafted sword to inflict multiple wounds on the intended target in order to inject them with various lethal Wisteria-based poisons. When used correctly, the user visualizes themselves manipulating and generating insects in a variety of colors, primarily purple, causing the insects to seemingly emanate from their weapon, the environment, or themselves.
This fighting style was invented by Shinobu as a way to compensate for her own physical disabilities, as she, being short and lacking in stature, lacks the strength necessary to decapitate Demons. Therefore, this sword style can only be used by her, and only with a unique katana with a needle-like tip.
