He feels compelled to woo every girl in sight (even Ellen despite her hostility) and is unfazed by the intimacy that would normally fluster him. He is currently extremely embarrassed about these hobbies and tries to dispose of all evidence, only for Kotori to salvage them as blackmail for completing his training.ĭuring his Reiryoku high, Shido becomes much more confident and flirtatious. Shido had a chuunibyou phase in middle school, where he played guitar, wrote stories and poems, and came up with anime-like moves. When responding to Natsumi's comment about the trouble she caused him, he compares her actions to what he went through during all of his past attempts to help Spirits and can only call her actions childish pranks: this is a girl who nearly ruined his reputation and erased all his friends and would've then erased him had she succeeded. He will press on to save the Spirits despite the great personal risk to himself. Shido also possesses a strong will and a genuine willingness to forgive others. Even Miku, who treated everyone like puppets, ended up changing her worldview because of him. These traits are what caused most of the Spirits to fall in love with him, as the thing they seem to lack most of all has always been a person who could accept and understand them. Shido is also a very kindhearted person who can sympathize with others. It is this empathizing nature that makes him regarded as the best person to handle the Spirits. As a result of being abandoned by his birth mother, Shido has become unusually sensitive to other people's despair.

Kotori described another interesting part of Shido's personality. He is now compelled to deal with females on a constant basis, something that he wasn't used to before. Shido is an average young man who originally had no interest in the opposite gender until he was forced to be by his little sister. He is later able to become physically female via. He also wore a flower hair clip as a hair accessory. During that time, he was seen with long blue hair, and he wore the standard female Raizen High School uniform. He is often seen wearing the male Raizen High School uniform during his everyday life circumstances.ĭuring the events of Miku Lily, Shido had to cross-dress as a girl to interact with Miku, thereby disguising himself as his alternate identity, Shiori Itsuka ( 五河いつか士織しおり ?). During the times when he borrows another Spirit's power, the color of his eyes turns into a more golden shade. He has straight blue hair and bands down to his neck and amber-brown eyes. Shido has the looks of a handsome young man in high school. In his quest to make the Spirits fall in love, he comes to learn how their history is inextricably tied to his own, leading him into a conflict with Deus Ex Machina Industries, led by the evil Isaac Westcott.

Going about with his normal life and rescuing Spirits is one thing, but with each new encounter and new Spirits to save, there is always some type of new hardship on Shido's mental health since he lacks experience dealing with the opposite gender. With the only explanation from her being that only he can save the Spirits by dating them, Shido reluctantly joins due to his nature to help and save people in need.

Discovering the real reason behind the Spacequakes and the conflict between the AST and the Spirits forcefully or voluntarily, Shido was brought into the secret organization known as Ratatoskr that his little sister commands. At the start of his new high school year as a 2nd-year student, he accidentally stumbles into a new world unknown to him or to the public. Gifted with a mysterious power that allows him to seal the powers of a Spirit in his body with a kiss, Shido works with the Ratatoskr organization to peacefully resolve the issue of Spirits by dating and making them fall in love.Īdopted into the Itsuka family household at a very young age, Shido has been living a fairly average normal life until recently. Shido Itsuka ( 五いつ河か士し道どう, Itsuka Shidō ?) is the protagonist of Date A Live. Shin (By Reine Murasame and Mio Takamiya).If people refuse to accept you, I'll just accept you even more.
