Rinnosuke is a 17-year-old high school student.

Mitobe has long dark hair that hangs below his thick eyebrows. It's parted into strands, revealing his kind eyes. One of his distinctive features is that he always keeps his mouth closed; even when playing on the court or giving interviews, he remains silent.

Mitobe is the hardest worker on the team: he always gives his all in both practice and games. He's as driven to win as the rest of the team, but he almost never shows his emotions. According to Riko, no one has ever heard Rinnosuke speak.

Mitobe is the eldest son in a large family, serving as their nanny (cooking, cleaning, and looking after the younger siblings). He's also shown to be very good at cooking. His best friend is Koganei, who's known him the longest out of all the club members. Although Mitobe is always silent, Koganei always mysteriously understands his thoughts, passing them on to others.

Mitobe joined the Seirin basketball club along with his friend Koga. Koganei says Mitobe had already played basketball in middle school, even though he was a freshman. Koga simply watched Mitobe play and also enjoyed the game. Koganei later adds that Mitobe played power forward in middle school.

When the team was shouting their entrance on the rooftop to convince Riko Aida, Koganei also shouted for Mitobe.

In his first year of high school, he played for Seirin's main team in the Interhigh. After an injury and medical leave, Kiyoshi switched from forward to center.

The best subject is Science.

His hobby is photography.

His special skill is cooking.

His favorite food is tuna donburi

His motto is: "Honesty, humility and silence."

His best subject at school is chemistry.

He is on the School Health Committee.

The type of girl he likes is quiet.

His family consists of a mother, father, 5 younger brothers and 3 younger sisters.

He spends his free time surrounded by his family.

He considers his good nature to be his greatest strength. He plans to overcome his indecisiveness soon, although Kogonei is surprised that Mitobe doesn't plan to overcome his silence. Incidentally, Mitobe himself doesn't remember when he stopped speaking, but Shinji claims that Mitobe was already silent in Middle School.

After Kiyoshi left the team, Mitobe's biggest fear is losing to any center players.

He doesn't believe there's any special secret to maintaining good relationships with his siblings. However, he is confident that one of the keys to success is eating together.

All of his younger siblings share a resemblance to each other, with their thick eyebrows. They support Mitobe in basketball. At the Winter Cup Finals, his siblings made a banner reading "Go! Seirin!" to cheer for his team from the stands.
