My ideas/"headcanon" about the Ares Trio 1/3

This post will be about Haizaki.

Haizaki Ryouhei:

Story: Haizaki wasn't always psychotic and deranged. When young, he was a very kind and sensitive boy. Detesting violence, conflict, and cruelty. He was also a good-looking, slightly feminine boy and was popular with the girls. However, unlike Gouenji or Tsurugi, Haizaki had no (living) family members. He never knew what is to protect or to be protected by a younger or older sibling, nor he ever felt love and caring from his parents. But there was a girl who felt this pain exactly like him, the girl was very sad and pessimistic, she never won anything in life, and she believes that humans are hateful beings who only live for competition and conquest. And there was a team of rowdy, older boys who bullied Haizaki for having no family members, and for being sensitive and weak, they also used to make fun of his "girly" appearance. One day, this team decided to make him suffer even more, they appeared with a soccer ball and said that they'll hurt him if he doesn't change. While the girl watches, Haizaki refuses, and says that nothing in the world will change his kind, optimistic ways. The Team Captain then starts the first strike, brutally shooting the ball to his head. The girl felt disgust, anger, and sorrow, as her eyes witnessed such barbarity. And the strikes only got worse, as the entire team ganged on Haizaki, but he never gave up, no matter what, he stood up, crying, in pain, still, he refused to let his will go. Eventually, the Captain got tired of it, and furiously punched Haizaki in his face. One of his eyes was horribly injured, and Haizaki was screaming in intense pain. That was the moment where the girl had enough, she revealed herself and told them to stop. The captain then said he's not taking orders or words from a girl and fiercely shot the ball towards her, to the surprise of all, Haizaki protected her, and he said that nobody other than himself should get hurt. The captain and his team finally got tired and left. Moments later, Haizaki faints and the girl takes care of him. The girl suggests that Haizaki lets part of his hair to cover his injured eye. The two then know each other more, and develop a bond. The girl who didn't have a brother and the boy who didn't have a sister finally felt what they so desired. As a form of gratitude, Haizaki promised that he will protect and win anything for the girl, and the girl promised that she will always support and help her brother and they also start playing soccer to let the bad times go. The days passed, and as Haizaki grows, he starts to know more reasons why his sister used to despise humans. He also remembers the days he got beaten and bullied, their views were reversed. One day, the captain said he didn't finish what he wanted with Haizaki, so he tried fighting with him again, however, Haizaki was no longer the pacifist boy he used to be, and easily won the fight. The captain then vowed he would get his revenge, as Haizaki started laughing, because that situation was the opposite of what happened in the past, he even felt pleasure, as he just punished somebody who once hurt him. Later, Haizaki finds his sister sick and hurt in the hospital and tries to find a way to help her, but he meets his old enemies again, he also realizes some of them are stronger. They start beating Haizaki, and use a soccer ball as well. This time, instead of crying or screaming, he laughs and says that pain is something he already conquered, he also states that soccer helped him overcome his weakness, he even thanks them for making him suffer, as that was the way he realized whom to hate or punish, and what made him grow stronger and resistant, he even jokes that they gave him the idea to let his hair like that to cover his eye (now healed). Afterwards, he shows his soccer skills and beats the team, he says that it's now an eye for an eye, and punches the captain in the face to injure his eye. Finally, when Haizaki is about to kick the ball to finish off the captain, his sister appears and protects the captain. She says that he should give people a second chance, and remember who he was. Later, Haizaki's sister says that she and soccer will always be with him, even during the darkest of times, his sister smiles and dies, firmly believing Haizaki one day will understand. Haizaki then remembers the promise he made, he later meets Kidou, Kudou, and Seishou, due to his overwhelming power, vengeful personality, and sadistic plays, he earns the title The Devil of the Field.

Personality: Vengeful, protective, sadistic, impulsive, reckless, daring, nonchalant, cocky, arrogant, vain, hysterical, selfish, brave, just, kind, loyal, honest, optimistic.

He later develops an interest in protecting and helping the weak. He teaches them how to deal with the hardships of life. He also starts to think if punishment and revenge are really worth depending on the circumstances and people.

Hobbies/Likes or "Slife of Lice" parts: Working out, gym, painting, steak, challenges, showing off, horror movies, stargazing, arm-wrestling. I like this description of Haizaki's possible backstory. Very in-depth and really gives a reason to sympathize with the guy. Up til now, I haven't been able to feel for him like I can for Asuto and even Yuuma. However, I doubt his "sister" is truly dead, since, well, this is Inazuma after all. This is the series that refused to let Kageyama die even after death. Anyway, love it, can't wait to hear your ideas/theories/headcannon about Asuto.
