Personality

Kiyora is, for the most part, quiet and blunt when speaking to others. Despite his quiet nature, he likes to pick a fight, and Karasu describes him as a sort of "meathead." 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 his, 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, as their victory will mostly credit him.

Abilities

Archetype

• Forwards: also known as strikers, have the main objective of scoring goals. They are often the players who get the most attention since their role is designed to be in a scoring position. They also take part in penalty kicks and corner kicks when the opposing team kicks the ball out of bounds. They are normally the players in charge of starting off the game at the start and halftime.

Skills

• Superior Physicality: Despite his small figure, Kiyora has a surprisingly strong and nimble body with incredible core strength. Even as he's on his hands and knees while balancing an opposing player taller than him on his back, Kiyora won't fall down. He mainly uses his physicality in conjunction with his break-dancing skills so as to be very hard to predict and throw off the opponent.
  • Twister Pass: When in possession of the ball, while being pressed, Kiyora will perform a handstand, trap the ball over his head and make a pass whilst doing a break-dancing twisting maneuver.
  • Acrobatic Pass: When tackled, Kiyora uses his superior core strength to maintain balance, and perform a midair pass to his teammate.

• Nimble Dribbling: Kiyora's dribbling style involves making light touches with the ball in rapid succession. His feet touch the ball so many times that it is hard for his opponent to read his next move.

• Grounder Kick Accuracy: Kiyora takes advantage of his shorter stature to make highly accurate shots and passes that usually roll on the field.
  • Backspin Pass: Kiyora sends a high-speed ground pass with extreme backspin through a tight space. This pass initially seemed to head towards Isagi but rolled back to a halt right before Kaiser. This assist provided Kaiser the perfect condition of a stationary ball to execute the Kaiser Impact Magnus, resulting in a super goal.
  • Grounder Backspin Accelerating Shot: A low sailing shot with immense backspin that makes contact with the ground before rapidly curling up as it reaches the net.
