Bloom into You

Overall, Mio looked very similar to Touko Nanami as they both have long black hair.
In the manga, Mio's face is usually obscured whenever photographs or flashbacks of her are shown.

Most people knew Mio as a friendly, honest and hard-working girl with a dedication to achieving her goals. This is how Touko Nanami saw her sister and she is the image that she attempts to emulate.
However, those who were close to Mio, like fellow student council member named Tomoyuki Ichigaya , knew a different side to her. Far from being hardworking, she usually delegated student council tasks while only giving speeches and basking in attention and admiration. At one point, she even asked the other student council members to help her do her homework, which they all did willingly – even those who truly did know her still adored her.

Sayaka is considered to be one of the more elegant and beautiful girls in the school with waist-length light brown hair that is tied in a pair of braids in the back with square bangs hanging over her forehead and green eyes.

Sayaka is a hardworking, dedicated and very intelligent girl, but she is also observant and very adept at picking up at subtle social cues and dynamics.
However, she also seems to be more aloof or even unapproachable at times. In particular, she has a very low tolerance for those she perceives as being lazy. When dealing with a problem, Sayaka prefers people who take the direct and straightforward approach.
Although she experiences loneliness and jealousy, especially when it comes to Touko, she keeps these negative feelings tightly bottled up to prevent causing others trouble or distress. One of the only people she confides in is Miyako , who calls Sayaka a good person for putting the feelings of others above her own.
While her love for Touko remains unrequited, Touko changing after the play seems to convince Sayaka that she quite possibly has a shot at Touko now.

Bloom into You

Touko has long black hair that has bangs hanging on the right side of her face, grey eyes [nb 1] and many people who meet her remark upon her striking beauty.

Externally, Touko is an extremely self-assured and dependable, outgoing, approachable, incredibly determined, and even stubborn girl when it comes to achieving her goals – once she sets her sights on something, nothing and nobody can dissuade her.
However, beneath appearances, Touko obsessively hides all of her weaknesses and insecurities from everyone, meaning that she has nobody to confide in and no real bonds with the people who surround her. She conceals any sign of uncertainty behind a self-confident veneer, and her immense feelings of loneliness and isolation beyond an extroverted facade. The perception that she can do anything she sets her mind to means that she feels immense pressure to never fail or falter.
In the course of her almost lifelong effort to replace her sister Mio Nanami , Touko came to believe that nothing in her life, neither her relationships nor her achievements, truly belonged to her. As a result, she feels incapable of receiving the love or even kindness of others, keeping everyone at a great distance from her true self. She also conceives of love as being heavily conditional, in that if she changes or stops acting like her sister, people will stop loving her.
The only person she lets her guard down around is Yuu Koito . The ability to feel genuine love for Yuu is the only thing she believes is truly hers.
Touko eventually realizes that, by insisting that Yuu not fall in love with her, she forced Yuu to keep her burgeoning feelings for her secret. She realizes that her insistence on not being loved has forced Yuu to keep her feelings to herself, and she's ashamed of how much she's hurt Yuu.
After a heart-to-heart talk with Yuu confessions of their love for each other, Touko has outgrown her belief that loving someone requires that person to remain unchanging, and getting over the idea that she has to be perfect.


Bloom into You

Yuu has brown eyes and hair that in the manga is paradise peach and in the anime is deep peach which she wears in a pair of small ponytails above her neck. She has a stubborn cowlick of hair that sticks out from her head. She is also pretty short, though she tends to get annoyed when this is pointed out.

Yuu seems to have an unrealistic and romanticized view of love, drawn from songs and shoujo manga. She expects that feelings of love should be perfect and overwhelming, and when she does not experience this, she comes to the conclusion that she is incapable of falling in love with anyone. Even as things progress further with Touko, Yuu continues to deny to herself that her own developing feelings are those of love.
Many of the people who know her well, such as her sister , comment that Yuu has a problem of being very indecisive. She has a lot of trouble deciding what to do with her future and seems to lack any particularly strong drive or interests, although she does seem to have some talent at athletics.
However, when she does finally make a decision – usually at the request or suggestion of someone else – she gives it her all. But even in these cases, although she is reliable and works hard, she doesn't seem to be very emotionally invested in anything she does. Usually, she is laid back, relaxed and unbothered by things, even when they go wrong. However, one of the exceptions to this is her relationship to Touko, which is one of the only things that can cause her to get worked up.
Yuu is considerate and supportive of other people's feelings to the point that she often puts the needs of others before her own. Her tendency to do this sometimes adds to her indecision, in that she lets other people choose things for her rather than make her own choices. Because of this, Natsuki, her friend on the softball team, decides not to ask her to join a high school with a softball team as she didn't want to unduly influence Yuu's decision.
Among her other traits, she can be direct and blunt when she needs to be. She tends to confront people with whom she has issues, communicating clearly to try and work things out together, as she did with Sayaka .
She stops just short of admitting that she's fallen in love with Touko, pondering how disturbed she is that Touko, who hates herself, hates something Yuu loves. Another one occurs after the Student Council play when Yuu realizes that in helping Touko become more open she has removed herself as the "special" person that she only opens up to.
After assuming that Touko refused her confession, Yuu wonders if the fact that she didn't break down and cry like Akari had meant that Yuu didn't truly love Touko. With Maki 's help, Yuu realizes that she does love Touko.
After a heart to heart talk with Touko confessions of their love for each other, Yuu stops romanticizing love and manages to make one of the most important decisions of her life, becoming lovers.

At her grandmother's request, Ohana works at the inn as compensation for her residency there. Before moving, she is confessed to by Kouichi Tanemura (Ohana's only best friend), but before she could answer to his confession, Kouichi ran off and they never saw each other thereafter. Ohana now feels awkward whenever she thinks about him. She met up with him in the city some time after, but after she realized her feelings, she was given the reply "see ya", which could mean that she may not meet Kouichi anymore, to her disappointment. However, as time progresses, Kouichi clears the misunderstanding by stating that he did not reject Ohana during a meeting with her mother.

Despite her carefree attitude, Ayame does not like to leave room for ambiguity, as she's a stickler for the details, especially when it impacts others.

Chinatsu is a young girl standing at average height with short brown hair with big brown eyes. At school, she wears the standard school uniforms for girls. However, she opts to wear a hoodie along with her school's jacket. Since she is a member of the basketball team, Chinatsu can be seen mostly wearing baggy shirts and gym shorts at practice.

Chinatsu is very passionate about basketball to which she comes across as rather tenacious in her efforts to win at the national level competition. Her passion and extreme motivation in basketball extends to practice where she attends school early in the morning just to train as well as staying home with Taiki's family than moving abroad with her own.
By her own admission and through the remarks of others, Chinatsu is not prone to romance unlike Taiki who developed a crush on her through admiration. However, after she moves in with Taiki's family due to her parents working abroad, the two grow closer together with her eventually reciprocating his feelings (albeit initially keeping to herself).

In contrast to Taiki's boisterousness, Kyo is  level-headed, able to read situations rationally and always look at the bigger picture. Because he is often times blunt, Taiki calls him harsh. During truly tense situations, such as when Hina asks Chinatsu romantic questions, Kyo can get anxious and say silly things.

She has two long strands of hair that usually fall in front of her eyes. Her notable feature is her large breasts, which was censored in the Cartoon Network version of Season 1.

In Season 1, she wears a light blue, short dress which is covered up by her white apron; around her neck is a thick blue collar. She wears thigh-high socks and blue flats with a lavender fold. Around her forearms are blue arm bands that start near the elbow and end at the wrist.

As a member of the Ra Clan, Bouquet has the power to turn herself invisible, but must strip to become invisible to the naked eye. (In the Cartoon Network version, all she does is untie her apron and she disappears with "sparkles" covering her body up to her neck.) During the anime, this ability is used to escape from the enemy and to infiltrate the enemy's territory. On one occasion, she was somehow detected by Delphinium and later by Investiture beings .


Blue Dragon

Cynthia is a young woman with long, pink hair tied up in a ponytail with a gold band. Her uniform consists of a white mini skirt with a purple tube top and white jacket bearing her insignia.

Cynthia is very similar to the witch in Snow White for she is constantly asking the Gran Kingdom soldiers "who's the most beautiful girl in the world?" (she gets mad if they say otherwise). Her temper is extremely short and she can't stand it when Minotaur or Jiro call her "old lady" ( obaa-san in Japanese). She hates Bouquet because the guards "fell in love with 'that girl' rather than her".
She might have possible feelings for Andropov , but annoys him a lot and often tries to get his attention by telling him that she loved.

Blue Dragon

Hildegard's humanoid form is an individual with long dark turquoise hair with green eyes and elven ears. Their masculinity differs whenever Hildegard swaps gender.

Hildegard is the only Investiture Being with double personalities, making him and her androgynous but easy to determine by voice. "Their" female side is the most apparent is less serious and playful who prefers their trials as games, and playing around situations for her own amusement. This is shown when she supports the enemy side by reviving Jiro's Minotaur.
Their male side is regarded as the opposite, being much more serious and controlled with a slight ratio of their female personality. While both sides have similar looks and figurine, Hildegard has no reference of distinguishment to either gender. Only in their dragon form is the only distinction having two heads representing each side.
Overall, Hildegard is more centralized and obedient to the council's rules and executive orders. Regardless of what it entails, they follow given orders without hesitation. They care less about the values of lives of other whether it be humanity or their own kin, which is shown as they show no remorse for killing Rottarace for treason. But their dedication to their rules proves Hildegard neutral, as he dismisses Rudolph's further orders as the conflict between kin escalates.


Blue Dragon

Homeron has medium long orange hair and squinty turquoise eyes. He wears a small jacket and long boots and is very muscular.


Blue Dragon

In the video game, he has short, straight dark-brown hair and dark brown eyes. He has a normal complexion and a round face. Jiro wears white trousers, and a black turtleneck with a green tunic overtop - a belt around the abdomen.
In the anime, he has dark-blue eyes, grey-brown longer hair and a pale complexion. Basically, he wears the same outfit as he does in the anime, only the shirt and pant colors are swapped.
In Tenkai no Shichi Ryuu , he wears a white T-shirt, green coat-like overtop, and black pants. He has grown larger muscles and keeps his hood over his head most of the time.

In the game, he's categorized as calm and the "smart-guy" of the group. Temperate in nature, he tends to analyze situations before jumping into action like the brash Shu. Though not hinted at much in the first game, he seems to be experienced with technology and (first game only) seems to have an interest in reading/books. He has a crush on Kluke.
In the anime, Jiro acts completely different and tends to let emotions get the best of him (until episode 31). He is unusually cold towards Shu and (usually) his other teammates besides Zola. After episode 31, he doesn't seem as cruel towards others, but still lacks trust towards other people. At the start of the anime, he believed power was the only way to prevail over enemies. When he was young his parents died, so he promised to himself that he will be stronger than he is that time.
In Tenkai No Schichi Ryuu he's usually seen frowning and keeps to himself. He has improved his fighting skills without his shadow. Jiro also has a rivalry with Delphinium (it was also revealed by Delphinium that she and Jiro have fought many times).


Blue Dragon

In the game, Kluke dons a plain black dress with collar neck and no sleeves which includes a yellow sash tied around her waist. She wears magenta sweatbands and matching socks, small brown boots with a tan overhang, and a magenta colored bow in her hair. Her skin is slightly tan in contrast to her anime counterpart. She has brown hair and brown eyes. A fringe, or bangs, hangs in a somewhat arc shape in front of her right eye, often mistaken for hanging in front of her left eye. The bangs are present in all of her appearances so far.

Kluke is a very mature person beyond her age. She is caring, maternal, and always ready to help anyone in need. However, as revealed by Jiro in a cutscene, Kluke had a habit of running off somewhere alone and breaking down into tears. Haunted by the deaths of her parents, she would replay the scenes in her head until she cried. Shu knew about this and confronted Jiro, concerned, but nobody confronted her until Jiro was with Kluke. He told her it was okay to cry, and it's implied she took that advice in Devour Village . There are times where she outright teases Shu, but not out of malice, but more of a brother-sister sort of way.


Blue Dragon

Marumira is a small Devee with blue plaited hair and a blue segmented dress. She wears the usual bronze Devee helmet with a single horn on it, the helmet strap is too big for her so hangs far under her chin. She wears similar boots to Marumaro but they are brown.


Blue Dragon

Marutora is a small Devee, he has bright green oversized shorts tied with a brown piece of rope. He wears a copper helmet like many other Devee. His helmet has one horn and the strap is too big, thus hanging over his chin. He has brown curled boots like Marumira.

Under her dress is a black high-collared top. She has thin brown wrappings around her lower arms and a purple sash held with a silver circular buckle. Her boots are brown with a light cuff around the tops and she wears black socks like many other characters.

Shu first appears as a brash, stubborn and impetuous character which often gets him into trouble. But his courage, strength and bright determination have saved him from certain death many times. Despite his bad habit, Shu is actually honest, sincere and protective to his friends which he prioritizes first whenever the situation becomes worse. This was shown when he chose to awake an unconscious Jiro and Kluke after the Land Shark escaped their trap and chose to wake them up before opening treasure chests and Nene tried to crush him and his friends with his mech. In Blue Dragon Plus, he warps a trapped Marumaro and Zola to safe location forfeiting any opening to defeat Nene.
Regardless of whatever circumstances corners him into, Shu refuses to give in thus extending him of his catchphrase: "I won't give up!". He refuses to retreat unless the situation forces him to prioritize the people he cares about first.
Shu is close friends with Jiro and Kluke. While Jiro is his complete opposite and they occasionally get into arguments they make up rather easily and work great together in Jiro's strategies and in battle. Shu thinks of Kluke as a special person as she is always brave no matter how hard things have gotten. He is also the closest to Marumaro acting as though they're brothers. Shu never wants to do anything that will hurt his friends even if they are enemies neither if they are defenseless.
In romance Shu is rather oblivious to this emotion, which gets him yelled at by Kluke and Sahlia . Shu admits he was never good with girls. Despite this, he has a crush on Kluke and said he had mixed feelings when she chose both his and Jiro's good luck rings they made. He even flat out asked who she liked to which she said to wait until her next birthday.
He also has a possible crush on Sahlia. When they first met she was rather cold toward Shu telling him to leave her alone. When Sahlia attempted to fall off a cliff, Shu saved her but got yelled at by her telling her past and now wanting to be dead without her family and giving up on the phrase "don't give up". Shu reconciles by telling her him and his friends' past experiences of losing their families to Nene. This gives Shu the strength to regain his shadow, Blue Dragon after he lost this ability to Nene and partially regained it to save his friends and destroy the Eat Yeet that was terrorizing Sahlia's village. Before Shu make their leave Sahlia gives them cookies she made. Marumaro asked if she liked to which Shu knocked him on the head and Sahlia responded by saying she respects him. As she leaves Shu is teased if he likes her which he angrily replies to "knock it off!". In Blue Dragon Plus Sahlia joined the party inspired by Shu to not give up and Shu blushed saying "whatever". During a point in the game is asked if he likes Kluke or Sahlia more to which Sahlia admits she wants to know.
In the anime, Shu is more impulsive than in the game he is also somewhat a pervert when around Bouquet but keeps it to a lesser degree than Marumaro. He has admiration and a dream to become a Knight Master . Shu knows when to give things up shown when he forfeited money he received for informant business to orphans.

In the anime her appearance is altered slightly. Her skin is slightly more tanned and her bandana is more a dark maroon than black. There are a few more slight colour variations like her sash being lighter and her necklace having the addition of gold beads.


Blue Dragon

Blue Dragon's appearance physically is that of a very powerful and intimidating nature with his ripped arms and huge chest muscles, as well as the massive wings on his back. Like most other shadows, the dragon has aesthetic accessories on its body, this one being gold rings around the horns.

Upon Shu's inadvertently summoning at first, Blue Dragon appears very violent and extremely cold, not caring about others but himself.
But as the series progresses, Blue Dragon begins to respect Shu for his strength of the heart with the value of companionship.


Blue Dragon

Chimera is the Shadow of Deathroy and is one the seven shadows used by The Soldiers of Light to defeat the darkness. Deathroy cannot summon it by himself but can grant to anyone of his choice who ultimately can summon it (First by Nene and then by Delphinium ). Chimera is the only shadow out of the seven real shadows to never speak (in fact, does not show any form of communication, even to it's wielder).
Chimera was first introduced in the story when Nene was fighting Zola when it was summoned to combat Killer Bat . It easily overpowered Killer Bat and when Nene used Graviton Ball, Kluke protected Zola by accidentally summoning Phoenix and using Feather Protect and then teleporting all to a safe place. Next Nene summoned it to face Shu and group in Hippopotamus ruins where it was overpowered by them. Again when Shu and group invaded Nene's flying fortress Galleon , Nene used the true powers of Chimera along with the energy absorbed from the captured children and overpowered them though Shu finally defeated it. After Nene's death, in valley of origins Deathroy merged with Delphinium and allowed her to summon Chimera who sacrificed her false shadow for it. But later it was shown that Delphinium can summon both shadows together.

After darkness was released Delphinium like others fled the area. Chimera was again summoned by Delphinium to combat against the shadow monsters defending Shu and others and convincing them to join forces with her and General Logi . Delphinium called Chimera again along with her false shadow to stop a dispute between Shu and General Logi. Later when the shadow wielders entered the realm of the darkness, Chimera alongside others was summoned to battle shadow monsters. When they reached the place where Zola was, Delphinium quickly summoned both Chimera and her false shadow to combat Zola and Killer Bat but was easily defeated. When all the shadow wielders were absorbed by darkness due to their shadow badges being destroyed by Zola, Shu managed to free everybody from the darkness. After that Chimera was used to destroy the remaining shadow monsters alongside other shadows. After Shu defeated demon Zola, all the seven shadow wielders used their shadows to seal the darkness due to which Chimera and other shadows were lost and disappeared in the process.

When the heroes invade Nene's floating fortress, he is ordered by Nene to release the Demon King Robots in order to stop them from shutting down the fortress' Eternal Engines . Despite this, they are still able to shut all but one of the engines. When Nene attempts to escape, Szabo confronts the heroes only to get destroyed. Szabo later appears at Nene's base, having been reconstructed and upgraded to Grand Szabo along with the Demon King Robots, but are still defeated. During the final assault against on Nene, Szabo and the Demon Kings have once again been rebuilt, but then they fuse together to create Ultimate Szabo , and are once again defeated by the heroes. After this defeat, Szabo turns against Nene and assists the heroes during the final battle.

Blue Lock

Himizu has a slim build with grey eyes and silver, bob-cut hair. A unique characteristic of his appearance is his split tongue, which he often sticks out.
Blue Lock player icon

True to his appearance, Himizu has a very snake-like personality. He enjoys bullying people who he finds weak, often lies to get out of trouble, and has a habit of sticking out his tongue.
Due to Aiki living in a family that's based on a false relationship between the parents, he developed a habit to continuously doubting other people's facial expressions so that he can distinguish what's real from what's fake. This obsession of knowing the truth led him to take pleasure in seeing through people's lies and exposing his feelings like he did to Chigiri during the Second Selection .
Himizu believes that human personalities are formed out of the persona one creates by lying and as a result he sees himself as this false personality thus reflecting the "half mask" aura he has while playing.


Blue Lock

Endoji has short black hair with a tuft of blond hair in the middle. He has prominent eyebrows and big eyes with star-like pupils. Endoji wears the Blue Lock suit underneath the Team White vest, but unlike most Blue Lockers, he has the sleeves of his suit rolled up to his shoulders.

Blue Lock

Ness is a young man of average height with pale skin, purple eyes and light brown hair that turns purple towards the edges. Ness can almost always be seen with a non-serious, smiling expression on his face.
Volume Cover 20

Ness is seemingly nice and well mannered, smiling even if he is angry. However, he is an extremely loyal individual to his team, especially Michael Kaiser . Ness' loyalty to him is borderline obsessive: only caring about assisting Kaiser in his goal to become the number one striker. He is even willing to start fights with his teammates over their "disloyalty" to Kaiser. As the NEL goes on, Ness grows to hate Isagi due to Kaiser's interest in the latter.
When he was a child, Ness adored magic, as it could not be explained by conventional means. Being born into a family of scientists, his siblings and parents often ridiculed Ness for his sense of imagination, going as far as to call Ness an "idiot" to his face.


Blue Lock

Anri is a petite young woman with neck-length brown hair that has two braids tied on either side in the back with square bangs hanging on the left side and chocolate-brown eyes.
She usually wears a secretary-like outfit, but in cover pages and color spreads, she is seen in more skimpy outfits that show off her body.
Anri is considered so attractive that the board members of the JFU are seen ogling her every time she speaks at meetings.

Colored Appearance Office Attire Blue Lock Staff Uniform Volume Cover 18

Anri is a calm but very determined young woman whose biggest dream is to see Japan win the World Cup. She is passionate when it comes to football and although the majority in the Japan Football Association ridiculed her and treat her as nothing more than a woman with big dreams and a big chest, she sticks to her goals and visions. While generally polite and professional, she speaks her mind, especially in regards to her dreams of winning the world cup and is unaffected by the business-minded Japan Football Association ideologies. [3]

In Blue Lock , Tokimitsu wears the standard-issued body suit (black with gray stripes) and tracksuit. During Second Selection , he wore Team Red 's #3 jersey.

Volume 10 Blue Lock player icon Team A Uniform

Despite his muscular build, Tokimitsu has a very meek personality while also suffering from a distinct lack of self-confidence, leading to moments of anxiety when he is required to perform (although this anxiety seems to lessen when he is in a position to score a goal). However, whenever he isn't overwhelmed with stress or anxiety, he's a friendly guy who expresses joy and excitement towards things, like winning a match or hanging out with others.
He is also a "football facts nerd," being able to provide facts and information about an entire range of different footballers.


Blue Lock

Naruhaya has fluffy blonde hair with darker, round eyebrows and long eyelashes. He is quite short for a soccer player and has a small build.

Blue Lock Tracksuit (Manga) Team Z Uniform (Anime) Team Red Uniform (Manga) Blue Lock player icon

Naruhaya is a very kind and responsible person despite his playful personality, as he maintains his family and once tirelessly tried to search for Gagamaru 's hair tie when he lost it (as reported in the Egoist Bible).
He is aware of his weaknesses and abilities in comparison to others, making it clear to Isagi that he knows that he won't be picked if he were to lose in his 2v2, seeing himself and Isagi as ordinary players who can't go as equals with true talented and genius soccer players such as Baro , Nagi , or Bachira . This awareness pushed him to try his best for his match. His awareness reaches the point of losing, and he fully understands why Isagi was a better player than himself.
He's very mischievous, stealing food and being the jokester of Team Z. He also cares for his family; his standing as one of the eldest siblings motivates him to play.
In his match with Baro 2v2 against Isagi and Nagi, Naruhaya shows that he's always known that he wouldn't last any longer in Blue Lock, and after losing, he feels powerless but also relieved due to being aware that he is not fit enough to pursue his goal to become the best striker in the world, and for him, it was only a naïve and stupid dream, but also satisfied due to being capable of reaching the Second Selection , and before leaving, he wishes the best of luck to Isagi and encourages him to keep winning.


Blue Lock

Chapa is tall with a dark complexion and dreads and big eyes and long thick eyebrows.


Blue Lock

Charles is a fairly tall young man with a lean build. He has medium length blonde hair with grey ends and an ahoge on his head, big yellow eyes and a noticeable one sharp fang. During the Neo Egoist League he wears Paris X Gen's uniform.

Volume Cover 31

Charles comes across as childish and disrespectful, best shown when he tries to sneak away during Loki's lectures and, when called out, covers his ears. He seems to show little to no interest in learning the concepts and frameworks behind soccer, and prefers to "play it by ear" instead. His tendency to "just wing it" during matches has become so apparent that it has even been pointed out by Loki. Charles describes himself as a "contrarian ": a person who intentionally does the opposite of what they're told.
Charles also seems to be a big risk-taker, as he is willing to go for extremely bold passes and maneuvers, even in very high-stakes soccer matches, such as the match against Bastard München . During said match, he wildly and instinctively passes the ball to Ryusei Shido , without actually knowing that he would be there to respond to the pass. This "contrarian pass" by Charles, along with Shido's "pursuit of pleasure", ends up leading to a goal for Paris X Gen. According to Yoichi Isagi , this maneuver only worked out because Charles had a visualization of the "ultimate play" that was brought about by his peak performance and egoistic mindset.

Hyoma's mother is a middle-aged woman with pink hair and purple eyes.
Hyoma's mother is a kind-hearted women who supports her son in his dream to become soccer player.


Blue Lock

Choki is a small cactus with three bulbs: two bigger ones on the top and one small one on the side.
The three bulbs resemble a hand making a peace sign, that's probably the reason Choki is called so and the reason Nagi gives it a goodbye peace sign before leaving for school.


Blue Lock

Chris is a tall and muscular man with unkempt black hair dyed as white and light-colored eyes.

Chris is a confident and expressive man who is a bit obsessed with himself. He has little personal boundaries, and is a straight forward kind of person who when speaking can be quite egotistical. Chris is often seen taking his shirt off, either to make some point or to just flex his muscles for others to see. Chris admits he use to take his physical talent for granted when he was younger but now he is more aware of himself and the world he lives in. He attempts to inspire his players through his speeches but does not care if they don't get fired up because at the end of the day, winning the spotlight for himself is all Chris cares about.


Blue Lock

Dada is a very tall man with a large build. He has dark skin, black hair styled as dreadlocks, and brown eyes. Dada possesses a very strong physique and presumably has high jumping power, as he was able to overpower Aryu in the air with ease.

Similar to most of his World Five teammates, Dada is exceedingly arrogant and likes to throw insults. When he sees Rin 's team, he comments that they were scrawnier than he thought.


Blue Lock

Lorenzo is a tall, slim, and lanky young man with purple eyes and free-flowing, messy black hair with dyed purple tips that sway to the right side of his face. He has golden teeth due to his old ones deteriorating, a tattoo of a blue mouth surrounded by black flames on the back of his long neck, and slight facial hair on his chin. He is seen wearing the #2 black and white striped Ubers uniform during the Neo Egoist League.

Volume Cover 26

Lorenzo is only focused on the strength of others and money. He strongly believes money makes the world go round and there is nothing in this world money can't obtain. He only acknowledges people with value attached to them, and even then, they have to be strong for him to give them any care. Even though he is overconfident, he is a team player whose team strongly trusts his abilities. He even realizes his role in the overall team formation and does not try to step out of it by doing his job perfectly and feeding the ball to their striker without issue.
His obsession with money stems from his upbringing; he was born into a miserable household and, after being abandoned by his parents, was forced to live in the streets. He spent his time swindling people out of their money for survival, but eventually, he lost hope in life and was ready to die. Fortunately, he was found by Snuffy , who offered him help in exchange for playing football with him, with Snuffy paying for his signature golden teeth. Ever since, he has gained immense respect for Snuffy, not hesitating to defend him after Baro called him a coward and rejected his proposal to succeed him.
He also has a habit of saying "okay" after every sentence.


Blue Lock

Otoya is a handsome young man who has short, flat white hair with a strand of hair in the middle that is dark green, along with the underside of his hair being that same dark green color. His face is slim with a chiseled chin and thin, low-lidded eyes that are dark in color. Otoya has spindly limbs that allow him to be agile on the field.
At Blue Lock, Otoya wears the standard issued body suit (black with gray stripes) and tracksuit. During Second Selection , he wore Team Red 's #33 jersey and wore Team B's #33 white jersey during the Third Selection . Only once the Japan U-20 match begins does he don an official blue Blue Lock player uniform with jersey #9.

Colored Appearance Team B Uniform Blue Lock Eleven uniform (Manga) Blue Lock player icon Blue Lock Eleven Uniform (Anime)

Otoya has a laidback and relaxed personality, rarely being shown as pressured or under stress even during a match. He has no problem taunting his opponents and appeared to be entertained when Rin and Shido began to fight after their match.
He also is very confident in his abilities, telling his team to play defense during his Third Selection match and not to talk back. Despite this, he does acknowledge when he is impressed by a teammate or an opponent, as seen when he was hyped up by Chigiri 's speed.
Otoya has lived his life by "going with the flow", and his fundamental approach was not to worry. When anything unpleasant happened to him, he would override it with fun things and forget it. This personality trait is what made him so compatible with Tabito Karasu as a partner.


Blue Lock

Gagamaru is a very tall and long young man with long black hair kept in a bun that was dyed silver at some point and he also has 3 scars on his ear from a bear. At Blue Lock , Gagamaru wears the standard-issued body suit (black with gray stripes) and tracksuit. During the First Selection , he wore Team Z's blue #6 jersey and Team Z's gray-capped cleats. During Second Selection , he wore Team Red 's #88 jersey and that later switched to Team C's white and blue #88 jersey during the Third Selection .
During the match against the Japan U-20, Gagamaru wears the official Blue Lock player uniform with the #1 that looks very similar to the ones seen in the first cover spread, minus the Japan flag. In the Neo Egoist League, Gagamaru dons the #99 white with red trim Bastard München uniform.

Volume Cover 22 Blue Lock joggers Team Z uniform Blue Lock player icon Team C Uniform Blue Lock Eleven Uniform

Gagamaru is a very nonchalant yet confident person who likes to help his teammates whenever he can, and he is shown to be a reliable player. Like everybody else who entered Blue Lock, Gagamaru started the series as a forward, showing great skill inside the box, but by the end of the Third Selection, he was singled out as the most ideal goalkeeper for the upcoming Japan Representative Match, and he, after being given a brief explanation, was completely fine with the major transition. He is once again fine with it during the Neo-Egoist League when he is chosen as Bastard München's goalkeeper. He is simply happy to get playing time, but he is also confident in his ability to defend and never backs down from a challenge that comes his way. Gagamaru is largely known as a reliable person who you can trust to do his job.


Blue Lock

He has dark hair, dark eyes and dark features. He is relatively well-built on account of being a professional judo player.

Not much is shown of his personality other than his bitterness at coming second at the all-Japan judo championships and his lack of care for his son as he pushes his dreams of becoming first place onto Hiori.


Blue Lock

Igarashi has a short and slim build. He has short hair, thick eyebrows, and wide-open eyes. His eyes are black in color. After he joins Blue Lock, he wears the standard-issued body suit and tracksuit. It is seen that he wears heart-printed trunks underneath his uniform while sleeping. During the First Selection, he wore Team Z's #13 jersey.

Blue Lock Tracksuit (Manga) Team Z Uniform (Manga) Team Z Uniform (Anime) Blue Lock player icon Team A Uniform

Igarashi is awkward, religious, determined, and pragmatic to a sometimes-lamentable degree. Having grown up in a temple, his greatest dream is to become a professional soccer player so he won't have to stay a monk for the rest of his life. He began as the lowest-ranked player in the entire Blue Lock facility owing to his lack of skill or specialties compared to his fellow teammates, even initially noting that his weapon was his "never give up" attitude. In the First Selection, he had only a few showings of usefulness, such as diving to block a shot from Nagi in the Team V vs. Team Z match. Despite this, his resolve has allowed him to survive longer than anyone would have guessed, and he even helps his teammate Ryusei Shido win in the Second Selection against Reo Mikage and Rensuke Kunigami with his newly developed "Malacia Style," which involves him moving in ways that result in fouling whatever player he's up against, otherwise known as "flopping." He has few close relationships with other Blue Lock contestants due to most viewing him as an annoyance and can be most frequently seen talking to Yoichi Isagi , who started off as the second worst-ranked player.
Igarashi's most notable trait is his pragmatism; he often plays desperately and without reluctance to disadvantage other players. He shows this during the entrance game of tag by trying to kick the ball at Bachira while he appears to be sleeping. Failing that, he then successfully kicked the ball at Kunigami, who was in the middle of scolding Bachira for kicking him, and then proceeded to use Isagi as a human shield when he was at risk of being "it" again. There is little that Igarashi won't do to ensure that he remains in Blue Lock, and he sets out to become the last one standing by any means necessary.

Meiji has blonde hair kept together by a headband and black eyes.


Blue Lock

Nishioka has fair complexion, and has short, light pale reddish brown fluffy hair, with choppy bangs that reach his eyebrows. Along with pale orange eyes with long lashes.

Blue Lock player icon Blue Lock Tracksuit (Anime)

Very little is known about Nishioka's skills, but he presumably is a good player, as he was chosen instead of Baro and Naruhaya in Second Selection. He is known within Blue Lock as "Aomori's Messi," so we can assume he has similar abilities to Lionel Messi . But since we have never seen Nishioka play, we can only speculate.


Blue Lock

Hayate is a tall and lean young man with spiky white hair and wide open eyes. He is noticeably the tallest player on the U-20 towering over most of them. He has a similar appearance to Seishiro Nagi .

Blue Lock

Hirotoshi is a fat elderly man who is bald on the top of his head. He has thin black eyes with small irises and thick eyebrows. He is usually seen wearing professional clothing, such as a suit.

Hirotoshi can be described as a money-oriented person with little to no high ambition. Even though Japan lost in the World Cup 2018 (Round 16), Hirotoshi is unbothered. With Japan Football Union financially stable, Hirotoshi sees nothing wrong with the current national team. In fact, he appears to believe that Japan will never be able to win the world cup, as he actively mocks Anri for thinking so. Proven to be incredibly delusional, he believes that all the association has to do is maintain the national team’s brand and façade since to him, football is a business. [3] This business strategy made him ill equipped for the talent that Blue Lock demonstrated in Japan's National Representative match against the U-20 team, as he actually believed that his stagnation plan would aid him in winning. Ultimately, resulting in his complete and utter humiliation in front of the entire world. Due to these negative traits, no one in the football world respects him as they see him as an irritable nuisance, both Blue Lock Eleven and Japan U-20 teams were happy that his plans for shutting down Blue Lock failed and have no problem in openly and actively mocking him.
In addition, Hirotoshi tends to come off as sleazy and weird, as he tends to stare at Anri’s chest while she is talking. Proving himself to be shameless, after his loss against Blue Lock, he pilfers the credit for the project's founding.
Hirotoshi can show a servile attitude. When talking with Sae Itoshi , he is vey complacent and does everything he can to make him feel comfortable, to the point of giving him full authority to pick anyone he wishes for the U-20, even a striker from Blue Lock despite only showing his disdain and wanting nothing more to shut down the project.


Blue Lock

Chigiri is a young man with reddish pink hair and deep pink eyes. Chigiri has always had a very feminine face since he was young, as shown by his long eyelashes and soft facial features. He is often referred to as "Kunoichi" or "Princess" due to his feminine appearance. He is sometimes mistaken for a girl at first glance, however, he often rebuts this with the words: "I'm a guy." He has been praised by other players for being attractive, though he seems indifferent to such comments. He looks very similar to his mother and older sister. Chigiri's hair had been only neck length until he tore the ACL ( anterior cruciate ligament ) in his right leg, after which he let it grow out. Chigiri's hair currently goes past his shoulders and has one long bang that sweeps to the right side of his face. During games, he braids the left side of his hair so that it doesn't get in his face.
At Blue Lock , Chigiri wears the standard-issued body suit (black with gray stripes) and tracksuit. During the First Selection , he wore Team Z's blue #4 jersey and wears Team Z's gray-capped cleats. During Second Selection , he wore Team Red 's #44 jersey and that later switched to white when Chigiri joined Isagi's team . During the Third Selection , he wears Team B's #44 white jersey. It is not until the match against the Japan U-20 does Chigiri don an official blue and black Blue Lock player uniform with the #4 on it.
He wears jersey #44 for Manshine City. When playing for Manshine City, he wears the short-sleeved uniform top, shorts, socks and a pair of black gloves.

Volume Cover 3 Young Chigiri Team Z uniform Team Red uniform Blue Lock player Icon Team B Uniform Blue Lock Eleven Uniform

Chigiri is a confident and driven individual who loves surpassing others on the field. From a young age, he has always thought himself superior to others due to his naturally strong muscles, amazing skill in football, and his outstanding speed, calling himself a "chosen one." He looked down on those who got in his way or annoyed him but was mostly behaved as though stating facts. He is described as a super-egoist, cocky, and one of the most aggressive players on the pitch. Only when he tore his ACL did his sense of superiority start to crumble, and due to the Wanima Brothers bullying him, he became afraid of playing football for fear of losing "who he is." He was so fearful of this that he accepted the invitation to Blue Lock to find a reason to give up rather than continue to strive for his dream. But after retaking a hold of his ego and ambition, he has shown himself to be a persistent and stubborn force on the field.
After this point, Chigiri demonstrates an amiable but still confident attitude. He often makes sassy remarks towards both opponents and friends alike and has no qualms about trying to crush people he feels hard done by, such as Zantetsu when he outruns him on the field and even Isagi when he goes ahead in the Second Selection instead of waiting for him. Off the field, Chigiri is generally easygoing and mellow. During his time on Team Z, he'd casually chat with Kunigami and eventually made a team with him, showing that he fully trusts his abilities, and went on to demonstrate great chemistry with him. He even invited Reo to join them, recognizing that his balanced skill set and experience in navigating a trio would come in handy; he was apparently willing to put aside any past animosity for the sake of pragmatism. After he joins Team White in the Second Selection, he even gets along fairly well with Nagi , watching videos about professional players and testing out a variety of objects that Nagi can trap, making a mess in their bedroom and generally antagonizing Baro . He also takes great care of his body and appearance, tending diligently to his injured knee. His propensity for hair care is especially noticeable and has been demonstrated on a few occasions, though it should be noted that blow-drying hair is a more common cultural practice among both genders than in the West. Still, he's in the habit of twirling his hair while he's deep in thought and gets visibly irritated when Aryu touches it and even slaps his hand away.
Chigiri is shown to have great focus being a player who is constantly running through tight spaces, between players, and even switching from dribbling to passing. Chigiri admits that he feels a great joy surpassing other players with his speed, and when he is inspired by Isagi and retakes his will to play and win, he finally leaves behind his fear and begins to once again be that player he used to be in middle school and states he will become the best striker in the world. A clear example of his ego is when in the match against Japan U-20, he runs out of stamina due to not having played soccer for nearly a year before going to Blue Lock and is substituted out; Chigiri is so frustrated that he cries once he sits in the bench.


Blue Lock

Niko has a lean body with long black hair that covers both his eyes. Niko is of average build and size, so he does not appear to be a strong player. His hair covers his eyes, but he is still able to see through them enough to play high-level football.
At Blue Lock , Niko wears the standard-issued body suit (black with gray stripes) and tracksuit. During the First Selection , he wore Team Y's red with vertical black stripes and #7 jersey, and during Second Selection , wore Team Red 's #63 jersey. During the Third Selection , he wore Team B's white #63 jersey. During the match against the Japan U-20, Niko dons an official Blue Lock player uniform with the #3.

Volume Cover 25 Blue Lock Tracksuit (Manga) Team Y Uniform (Anime) Blue Lock Eleven Uniform (Manga) Blue Lock player icon Team B Uniform Blue Lock Eleven Uniform (Anime)

When in a game, Niko is incredibly confident in his ability to read the field, asserting his superiority to Isagi during the game against Team Z. However, Niko is not prone to arrogance, as he seems to appreciate people who demonstrate the same ability as himself. This could be seen when he showed Isagi respect during their game, upon realizing that they possess the same eyes. This has translated into a friendly rivalry, with Niko aiming to one day play Isagi again and defeat him.
Niko has also shown that he is willing to adapt his mindset and playing style if it means evolving further. After losing to Isagi, he began focusing on his own goals and staying in the spotlight. During the U-20 match, he also grew to enjoy playing as a defender, where he used his eyes to crush forward. This demonstrates Niko's willingness to change both his style and his role for the sake of his ego, without issue.
Off the field, Niko is very reserved due to his introverted nature and otaku upbringing. He seldom talks to others, preferring to stay within his own bubble, and tends to do things by himself. When he does talk, however, he speaks with relative respect to others and handles himself accordingly, if not with a bit of attitude.

Blue Lock

Kiyora is a short, slim teenager who has dark curly and wispy hair with a bang that usually covers his left eye. At Blue Lock , Kiyora wears the standard-issued body suit (black with blue stripes) and tracksuit. During Second Selection , he wore Team White 's #21 jersey and uniform and during Third Selection , he wore Team A's #21 jersey. During the Neo-Egoist League, he is seen wearing Bastard München 's tracksuit and #69 jersey.

Volume Cover 28 Blue Lock player icon

Kiyora is, for the most part, quiet and blunt when speaking to others. Despite his quiet nature, he is described as a sort of "meathead" by Karasu . This is exemplified when Kiyora got his training room mixed up with Nagi 's, and did not bother to check whether or not the room was him, instead telling Nagi to leave the room due to believing he was in the wrong.   He also has the habit of saying "'kay." to others when being told to do something.
Kiyora possesses a keen instinct honed through life's constant decisions on the "borderline". He can sense the decisive moment in which he has to act and passionately believes that his choice to ally with someone will lead to his and their victory. Within these "borderline" moments, he tends to side with who he believes to be the underdog.


Blue Lock

Raichi is a tall young man with a muscular build. His hair is usually seen as flat and is pale blonde, similar to that of Seishiro Nagi . His eyes in the colored pages of the Blue Lock manga are that of an amber color, and framing them are extremely dark, thick lashes.
Sharp shark-like teeth make Raichi's appearance seem intimidating, even more so when he scowls and shouts. But in the rare moments where his irritable and erratic nature isn't graphic, Raichi is overall an attractive young player. At Blue Lock , Raichi wears the standard-issued body suit (black with gray stripes) and tracksuit. During the First Selection , he wore Team Z's blue #10 jersey and wore Team Z's gray-capped cleats. During Second Selection , he wore Team Red 's #95 jersey and that later switched to Team B's white #95 jersey during the Third Selection .
During the game against the Japan U-20 , Raichi is a reserve player and wears the Blue Lock long jacket with his Blue Lock Eleven uniform under it. In the Neo-Egoist League, Raichi is currently a starter for Bastard München and wears their black, red, and gold kit with the #22.

Volume Cover 23 Team Z Uniform (Anime) Blue Lock player icon Team B Uniform

Raichi is one of the most hotheaded players in Blue Lock, initially overly confident in his own skills. He does not like being given orders by people, but after the amount of talent and the level of difficulty in Blue Lock humbled him multiple times, Raichi learns to succeed in his role the best he can so that he not only survives Blue Lock but grows along with everybody else. Raichi gets frustrated when players he initially underestimated develop faster than him and he likes to remind those who are below him of their place.
In the beginning of Blue Lock, he was highly argumentative and disagreeable. His tendency to belittle his teammates, as seen in the first few chapters, stem from an overwhelming confidence in his abilities, which can make him come across as arrogant and pompous. But as time went on, he learned to work with others and listen to what they had to say to succeed, calming down his arrogance in the process.
In the final game of First Selection, Raichi is willing to forgo the position of striker and uses his brash personality to inspire and fuel his team, implying that despite wanting to be a striker, Raichi is willing to change in order for his team and himself to win.
In the Neo-Egoist League, Raichi has mellowed out considerably and acts as the "heart" of the team, constantly being the player to aggressively bark callouts to the rest of his team, using his loud voice as a way to pump himself and his teammates up. And, despite retaining his overall disposition, Raichi has been shown to be much more lenient in listening to his teammates (namely Isagi) in order to fulfill a specific role to help the team win, and even apologizes if he doesn't manage to successfully fill that role. Of course, he still yells at his teammates angrily if they mess up on their end.


Blue Lock

Ego is a tall, skinny, and pale man with an unusually long neck. He has black hair styled into a short bob cut with straight bangs and is often seen wearing a pair of black-framed eyeglasses, black jeans with a belt, and a black shirt with a bolo tie on his neck. He also wears a silver watch on his left wrist and crocs instead of socks and shoes. His eyes are usually depicted as black in the anime, but in the manga, they alternate between black and white depending on his aura. Dark circles under his eyes further emphasize his obsessive dedication to his work, giving him a perpetually exhausted yet intense look. During the U-20 match, he was seen wearing a suit (in the anime it's blue), a rare departure from his usual casual attire. By the time of the Neo Egoist League , Ego's hair had gotten noticeably longer.

From the very beginning, Ego is introduced as a man who radiates ambition and confidence. His egotistical nature is undeniable, especially given his belief that only his methods can lead to Japan's victory in the World Cup. Ego's grandiosity and self-assuredness are what drive him to push forward with the Blue Lock project, an idea that seems extreme and ruthless to others. He dismisses conventional football strategies, favoring his own approach to fostering egoism in strikers, which he views as the key to greatness. One of Ego's most distinctive personality traits is his disdain for altruism in football. He consistently preaches that a striker should never put the team above themselves, as self-sacrifice and playing for the sake of the team undermine the development of a true egoist striker. He calls altruistic positioning and sacrificing for teamwork "second-rate" behaviors, which in his eyes are incompatible with greatness. Ego believes that only by prioritizing their own success and glory can players truly become world-class strikers. Similarly, Ego holds a strong contempt for those whose motivations are driven purely by money. He views financial greed as a shallow goal that diverts attention from the more important mission—creating the best striker and elevating Japan's status in the football world. This fact is highlighted by him not shrinking back from spending a lot of money so that he could lead the project just like he envisions it. Furthermore, he is brutally honest, often to the point of being harsh and confrontational. He has little patience for mediocrity or those who fail to live up to his standards. His feedback to the players is often blunt, with no room for comfort or encouragement unless it's earned.
Ego is a man deeply fascinated with football as a psychological and philosophical battleground. Throughout the Blue Lock project, Ego consistently uses any opportunity to lecture the strikers on various concepts that he believes are crucial for success in football. His speeches for example revolve around topics like "luck," "flow," "the hunger of a striker," and "the influence of the environment." He believes that such concepts shape the way football should be played, and he uses them as teaching moments to mold the players' mentality. Ego's passion for discussing these intricate football theories shows that he not only has a deep understanding of the sport but also the psychological factors that influence it. His conversations with Anri Teieri also reflect this, as he answers her questions and shares his visionary perspective of what he thinks of their strikers development with her.
Despite his seemingly cold and detached demeanor, there are glimpses of his deeper emotional investment in the project and its participants. One of the most striking examples is during the U20 match, where Ego puts his entire career on the line. He risks being banned from the world of football forever, yet he does so willingly for the chance to prove to the world that Blue Lock's methods work and ensuring a prospering future for the Blue Lock strikers ( "I'll disappear and all of you will change Japanese soccer." [2] ) This demonstrates an unwavering commitment to his vision, even if it means sacrificing something he deeply values—his place in football. As revealed in the Egoist Bible , football is something deeply important to Ego, and losing it would bring him immense sadness. His willingness to take such a significant risk shows that his vision for the future of Japanese football goes beyond his personal ego—it's about proving to the world that his methods are necessary for Japan to win the World Cup.
Although Ego initially comes across as detached and purely focused on results, his actions throughout the series show that he cares about the well-being and progress of the players more than he lets on. This is especially evident in the Neo Egoist League arc, where Ego calls Kenyu Yukimiya for a private meeting and offers him critical advice to address his eye disease. Despite knowing about Yukimya's condition since his arrival at Blue Lock, Ego chose to respect his privacy, only bringing it up when the time was right and keeping the conversation confidential. He states that his character isn't so vulgar as to make a show out of people's personal issues. [3]
Ego is a genius with both a high intellectual quotient (IQ) and emotional quotient (EQ). His intellectual brilliance is showcased through his intricate design of the Blue Lock program, creating detailed training methods and psychological challenges to mold strikers into the best version of themselves. His ability to assess players' individual progress and identify their strengths and weaknesses, combined with his strategic manipulation of the system and understanding of what is needed to push them further, demonstrates an extraordinary understanding of human behavior. Ego's emotional intelligence shines through his ability to read people's body language, behavior, and emotions. He uses this skill to manipulate situations to his advantage, as seen when he convinced the Japan Football Union (JFU) to approve the U20 match, knowing exactly how to exploit their fears and desires or when he lied about the 300 players being ranked in teams from B to Z. According to Noel Noa , Ego is a "zombie" obsessed with creating the world's number one striker and calling him an "incredibly twisted football fanatic." [4]
Ego is someone who unapologetically prioritizes his comfort and preferences, often disregarding social norms or expectations. This is demonstrated by his unconventional behavior, such as sitting in strange positions during meetings or working in an unorthodox manner. His disregard for others' opinions extends to his personal life as well. Ego cares little for how others perceive him or his methods, as long as they bring him closer to achieving his goal. This trait also manifests in his refusal to engage in tasks outside his immediate responsibilities. For example, Ego refuses to do anything that isn't related to football, stating that if it's not in his contract, it's not his concern. Stating that he doesn't do anything that doesn't benefit him. [5] He neglects cleaning his workspace, preparing meals for himself, or even doing his laundry, showing a stubbornness and self-centeredness that highlights his singular focus on football and nothing else.
Ego's stubbornness is a defining part of his personality. One particular instance of his pettiness is revealed through his choice to eat instant noodles almost exclusively. This habit is his way of rebelling against the strict dietary restrictions he faced during his playing days, showing that even small acts of defiance hold significance for him. It underscores his unwillingness to bend to rules or limitations, even in trivial matters. He's also seen scratching his neck when he is annoyed or not satisfied with a situation and holding his hands in thankful gesture when he's finished with a meal. [6] [7]

Despite his politeness, Isagi sensed that Loki was not the least bit nervous about playing them, which indicates a supreme confidence in his own ability, regardless of his manner.

Bachira has a rather eccentric demeanor and personality. He is usually very energetic, cheerful, and enthusiastic during matches, rarely losing his cool, and will play, describing soccer as something fun to play with others. Bachira immediately relates to Lavinho , who is also eccentric and energetic, and is inspired by his way of playing football. He has a tendency to sleep in unexpected moments, such as when he was sleeping during the tag test. He mostly oversleeps and ends up relying on Isagi or Kuon to wake him up, and then falls asleep during their team meetings; he's also been known to fall asleep during meals. He also tends to show up completely naked after every training and soccer matches. When the Neo-Egoist League starts, Bachira takes his football training more seriously in an effort to become the world-class egoist he imagines himself to be and edge closer to becoming the best in the world. Bachira now actively weight trains and mediates.
During his childhood, he was actively bullied because of his eccentric personality and exceptional skill in football, which made him terrified of being alone. This trauma causes Bachira to create an imaginary friend who is a "monster," more specifically a football monster, because it motivates Bachira and his plays in the game. Only after he comes to Blue Lock does Bachira start facing his trauma for he finds people he is similar to and can call a friend, like Yoichi Isagi. Bachira can be seen casually befriending all sorts of people despite his somewhat strange demeanor, including Isagi, Rin , Chigiri , and Kunigami .
After the rematch between Isagi's Team White and Rin's Team Red, Bachira has moved past his previous trauma and has decided to be more confident and dominant on the field. He wants to become the world's best striker who scores only for himself, and thus will only pass someone the ball if they have the potential to excite him and help him play the kind of football he wants to play. Bachira has also steeled his resolve for moving forward in Blue Lock; no matter the challenge, Bachira looks optimistically at the situation, resolving to get stronger and reach the peak of each trial ahead of him.

He is typically seen wearing his Bastard München #10 uniform, which features red and black with gold stripes, complemented by black and gold striped socks, sneakers, and a long-sleeved shirt.
Volume Cover 19

Kaiser is shown as an arrogant young man who has a superiority complex. He sees everybody around him as merely small time actor compared to his big time main role as the star of his world. Though he is arrogant and slyly rude to people he sees as beneath him, he is not unnecessarily rude to his teammates but will put them in their place when they unnecessarily speak out even if it's for his sake. Even though Kaiser is arrogant and rude, he knows when to control himself around people who are definitively better and superior to him, such as his team leader and the best striker in the world, Noel Noa .
After the match against the Ubers , Kaiser was immensely frustrated when he lost to Isagi a second time. Originally, he joined Bastard Munchen because it was the quickest way to get into Re Al , but now he cannot just leave the Neo Egoist League after losing to Isagi.
Kaiser believes that the moment people believe things are impossible, they are programmed to give up. Those who sacrifice their talent in exchange for living long and tedious lives are the ones he hates the most.
Before, Kaiser was a mentally weak person who constantly gave up on things he believed to be impossible. To remind himself to never again too fall into that weak mindset, he got a blue rose tattoo on his neck, which he believes symbolizes the achievement of the impossible.

Blue Lock

Noa is a tall, pale-skinned man with a muscular frame. His hair is white, and his eyes are yellow with black-shaded eyelids. As a member of the France National Team, Noa wears the standard #9 striped blue and red kit with white shorts, red socks, and red and white cleats. When Noa arrives at Blue Lock, he is usually seen wearing the Blue Lock tracksuit. When playing with Bastard München, Noa dons the #9 black, red, and gold kit.

Noa is a very calm but serious person who speaks very clearly and candidly while still maintaining his manners. He is described by fellow football colleagues as a cyborg because of his profoundly serious and non-expressive demeanor. He does not like it when his players try to act superior to others and regards it as childish. Noa admits that he does not take into consideration intangible factors like impressions or emotion but only a player's numbers and the results that come from those numbers when picking his team, but if he is inclined to play a player due to their popularity and any contracts, he is beholden to, then he will forsake his earlier judgment.
Having grown up poor in the slums of France, Noa has taken his football very seriously from a young age because it was the only way for him to change his life. Around his fellow world-class players, Noa's serious demeanor is found annoying by his more expressive and reckless colleagues, as he ignores them and their statements of being the best.
Just because Noa is cold and serious does not mean he is not willing to properly advise and teach his players, especially when they ask him for help, as seen with Isagi . As a coach, he is direct and strict when it comes to training his players, refusing to let anyone play if they don't prove themselves to be worthy or take the opportunities to improve their skills.
He is proven to be quite manipulative as all his instructions and guidance towards Isagi was merely for his own benefit as he used the "Heart of Blue Lock" into aiding Kaiser discover his buried ego.
