Cyril Capet, the world's number-one active midfielder, has extraordinary midfield talent. He reached the pinnacle of world football at just twenty, earning the title of the world's best midfielder.
He absolutely loathes needless complications and gives off an aura that warns everyone to stay away. The only living creature who seems able to approach him is the exceptionally clever raven perched on his shoulder, Sylvia.
An unexpected injury forces him away from the center of the sporting world for a while. He enters the crazy project known as Blue Lock, becoming someone a group of ambitious young geniuses both long to devour and long to possess.
Cyril himself, however, just wants to recover in peace and thinks the whole world is too noisy.
Family is such a hassle, relationships are such a hassle, and kids are even more of a hassle (anyone underage, that is)...
Surrounded by trouble, Cyril: ...I hate trouble.
Ego, I quit!

1. Cyril is the central character and an all-top. No endgame pairing, no betting on a ship.
2. Lots of people fall for him, but he finds them troublesome and is slow on the uptake. To avoid the hassle, he’ll even pretend not to notice when he does figure it out.
3. He’s Itoshi Sae’s teacher. He’s 23 when the Blue Lock story begins.
4. He has bed partners (more than one) (content warning)
