Age: 18 years (at the time of the Second Selection).
Height: 180 cm.
Body type: slim, thin.
Hair: reddish-red (in the manga), but in the anime, it can be closer to a purple-crimson shade. His bangs are combed back to reveal his forehead—a style he's maintained since childhood.
Eyes: turquoise. Their distinguishing feature is long lower eyelashes (like his younger brother Rin's; however, Sae has one more eyelash on his lower arch—six, while Rin has five).
Other: His dominant foot is his left. During matches, he wears the white Japan U-20 team uniform with the number 10, under which he wears a black shirt and black gloves.
Character

Overall, Sae can be described as a cold, aloof, and straightforward person. Since childhood, he was serious-minded and hyper-focused on one goal: to become the best striker in the world. However, after four years in the youth system of Real Madrid, his worldview changed: exposed to world-class football, he rethought his ambitions and shifted his focus from pure goalscoring to a playmaker's role—controlling the game and creating chances for others.
Some character traits:
Arrogance and haughtiness. He often looks down on others, even if they are older or hold a higher position. He openly despises Japanese football, considering it not high enough, and has stated that he would rather die than play for the standard Japanese national team.
Pragmatism and detachment. In communication and in the game, he displays a cold calculation. On the field, Sae acts like a "cold puppeteer": he manipulates the game, calculating his moves precisely, and respects only those teammates who can match his level.
Directness. He doesn't hesitate to say what he thinks, sometimes quite harshly.
The ability to reflect. Despite the initial cruelty?

Appearance

Rin is a tall teenager (around 186–187 cm). He has a slender yet muscular build.

The hair is dark green, the bangs slightly cover the right eye.
His eyes are turquoise, and he has rather expressive eyelashes, a trait he inherited from his older brother, Sae Itoshi.
Character

At first glance, Rin appears cold, distant, and even arrogant. He is extremely serious, shows little emotion, and often judges others' abilities with disdain, calling them "mediocre." However, his character is not simply an innate callousness, but the result of a severe internal conflict.

As a child, Rin was quite naive and sincerely admired his brother, Sae. He began playing football on his brother's advice and tried to emulate him in everything he did. But after Sae left for Spain, Rin found it harder to play without a mentor. It was then that his approach to the game began to change: from intuitive to more analytical.

The desire to surpass his brother became Rin's primary driving force. In his attempts to emulate Sae, he adopted not only some of her mannerisms but also a certain mentality—he became more withdrawn and abrupt. This conflict caused him to withdraw from those around him.

Yet, behind his cool exterior lies a deep obsession with football. For Rin, it's not just a game, but a way to prove his superiority, constantly pushing the limits of what's possible. He's completely absorbed in training: he follows a rigorous daily regimen, spending countless hours in the gym, working on his strength, speed, and technique.

Appearance
Ryusei is a tall, athletic young man with a distinctive, almost predatory aesthetic. He has light, almost white hair, styled so that the strands fall dramatically across his face—this hairstyle emphasizes his daring image. Shido's eyes are sharp and piercing, often appearing slightly mad or extremely focused: they convey passion and a willingness to go all the way. His facial features are sharp, his cheekbones are prominent, giving him a tough appearance that conveys indomitable talent—he doesn't fit the standard notion of a "team player," and this is evident even in his visual appearance. Personality
Shido Ryusei is the embodiment of pure football instinct taken to the extreme. His defining characteristic is his absolute obsession with the game. For him, football is neither a sport nor a job, but a means of self-expression, an almost animalistic need. He views the field as a space to reveal his true nature and abhors restrictions, rules, or attempts to confine himself to tactical boundaries. He is extremely impulsive and emotional: he acts on instinct, trusting his instincts and often ignoring strategy if it hinders his ability to express himself. Yet there's no chaos in his impulsiveness—on the contrary, he's incredibly precise when following his impulses, and this is precisely what makes him a dangerous opponent. Ryusei doesn't strive for leadership in the traditional sense or try to rally the team—he's more of a "force of nature" that's difficult to control. He's not afraid of confrontation and openly displays contempt for those he believes aren't playing "real." At the same time, his aggression is not just rudeness, but a form of honesty: he does not pretend, does not smooth things over, and does not hide his emotions.
Despite his rebellious image, he possesses a certain honesty and straightforwardness: he doesn't play duplicitous or scheme, but expresses his feelings and thoughts directly, albeit harshly. In Blue Lock, where each member competes to be the best attacker, Shido stands out for his embrace of this struggle.
