He is the older brother of Rin Itoshi. Sae's main goal before the start of the series was to become the best striker in the world, and in turn, the best player in the world, but after leaving Japan and experiencing the professional league in Spain, he changed his dream to becoming the best midfielder in the world after he realized how truly weak Japanese football is. At the start of the series, he is in Japan only to renew his passport but after hearing about the Blue Lock, he decides to stay. He later joins the Japan U-20 to face off against the Blue Lock Eleven in the Japan U-20 match.Sae is a tall, lean young man with magenta hair and slim teal eyes that are framed by an array of long underlashes just like his brother, Rin. During the National Representative match, he wears the Japan U-20 White #10 jersey with a black shirt underneath the jersey and some black glovesSince a young age, Sae has been cold, blunt, and serious. He has only ever cared about becoming the best striker in the world and has only had time for things that get him closer to his goal. Sae can also be arrogant and condescending, looking down on others even if they are older than him and have more organizational authority. He is egotistical in his football play but has shown to be able to restrain himself and play his position, not trying to outshine others unnecessarily.He is very confident in his skills and wholeheartedly believes that nobody in Japan is worthy of his skills as a teammate. He dislikes the fact that he was born in Japan, saying things like he was simply born in the wrong country.Even though Sae exhibits arrogance, he does not mind staying in his role as midfielder and key passer.Abilities Archetype PlaymakerProfessional Football TechniquePerfect Kick TechniqueReflexMetavision H
