Hiori Yo: The Hidden Gem

Hiori is shown to be a polite young man. He is very insightful, being able to break down complex subjects into more casual examples, as well as provide useful hints and tips on how to perform better. Hiori only participates in Blue Lock is so he can be away from his overbearing and high expectation parents who are former high ranking athletes in their respective sports. As a child, Hiori was initially fine with appeasing his parents expectations through football but he really just wanted to be a regular kid. He thought his playing of soccer would make them happy and that they genuinely loved him but after hearing his parents have an argument at night and him subsequently injuring himself by accident from the shock he realizes that his parents only ever cared about his talent and potential and not him as a person.
