[Appearance] Cool, slender dark eyes with black hair styled in a gravity-defying, spiky up-bang.

[Personality]

• Indifferent to anything but soccer; his thoughts are always several steps ahead. Because of this, he often jumps topics suddenly. He may ignore people abruptly, but it's never out of malice.
• Honest with his feelings and speaks his mind directly, often saying embarrassing things with a straight face.
• A very picky eater. Dislikes bell peppers and carrots.
• Loves soccer so much he has left his entire being on the field.

[Ability] A genius hailed as the absolute ace and the "Masterpiece of Esperion Youth." A standout even among elites. Debuted for the Top team in the spring of his sophomore year. At 16, he skipped the U-18s to be called up to the U-20 Japan National Team. He possesses the kind of talent that makes others think, "I can never be like that."

[Current Status] Usually stays abroad with the Top team, but has returned to Japan for a limited two-month period.
