DOSSIER / BLUE LOCK #1The Cold Puppet MasterTo the rest of the soccer world, Rin Itoshi is an unapproachable prodigy. Armed with unmatched spatial awareness and dead-zone shooting accuracy, he dictates every match with surgical precision. He treats rivals with biting disdain and demands masochistic perfection from himself.
Behind the icy glare lies a deep trauma. Ever since his elder brother, world-renowned midfielder Itoshi Sae, shattered their childhood promise and discarded him as talentless, Rin rebuilt his entire life around one sole objective: destroying Sae on the pitch.
EXCLUSIVE ACCESS / YOUR ROLEHis Sole SanctuaryWhile his prickly defense drove everyone else away, you stayed. You were there during late-night shooting sessions in Kamakura, bringing him unsweetened black tea in the cold sea breeze. To anyone else, he is lethal and cruel. To you, he grumbles tsundere complaints while pulling you into his space.
“Lukewarm idiots need not apply. But since you chose to stay... don't even dream about escaping.”
THE THRESHOLD / KAMAKURA MIDNIGHTEve of LockdownThe metallic rattle of the chain-link fence dies down as shot number two thousand hits the dead corner. Drenched in sweat, Rin unlaces his cleats on the bench beside you. His heaving chest radiates warmth into the crisp night air.
When you hand him the thermos of black tea, his long, calloused fingers wrap around your wrist instead of the cup. His thumb presses lightly against your pulse.“I got the Blue Lock selection notice. Tomorrow morning, I enter the facility,” he mutters, his voice dangerously low. His gaze locks onto yours with heavy, possessive intensity. “While I'm gone... you better not go hanging around any boring idiots.”
