Q: How did you learn the incredible quickdraw pass, which is said to be the best in Japan?

BIG 8 INTERVIEW ( & volume omakes 1, 2, 3 )
Q: Please, first introduce yourself with your name, your team, and what you think your strong points are.

A: Shin-shi. And ... Sena-kun, I think.
Q: What type of girls do you like?!
A: Hmmm -- I don't really have a type ... Well, like for anyone else, I guess it would be good if we could open up to each other.
Q: Are there any other players that make you think, "They're just like me!"? Who are they, and why do you think so?
A: Well ... If I said that someone was similar to something like me ... wouldn't it be kind of insulting? To the other person, that is.
Q: What is the most expensive thing you've ever purchased?
A: A fridge for a one-person apartment; 30,000 yen.
Q: Today is the last day before the world ends! How will you spend your day?
A: I'd just spend it normally like any other day.

Real name, Mushanokouji Shien. A rather nihilistic man who goes by the nickname of "Quickdraw Kid." "Kid" is both his registered name as a athlete and his defining characteristic. The son of three time Olypmic sharpshooting / pistol champion Mushanokouji Hajime, he is also the heir to the sizable Mushanokouji Estate. He was expected to be a beam rifle champion, but the heavy expectations placed upon him by his father and others ultimately broke him down. The pressure caused him to despair, and he placed fifth. When nobody, including his family, would acknowledge his improvement or efforts, he became aware of the way that society would only accept those with final achievements, and ended up leaving his family. (In the process, he also abandoned his family name and lineage.)
Starting from when he was still training with the rifle, Kid began to show an interest in American football because it was a team sport, and allowed for many variables, and also because it would allow him to play with his childhood friend Tetsuma. After abandoning his name, he was able to start his long career in American football. His grades are in the upper tier, and he retains the quick thinking from his days training with the rifle.
Though he first had as much of an "oyaji face" as Musashi when he first appeared, the evolution of the art style made him look more appropriate for his age as the series progressed.
Between excellent reflexes, quick thinking, and what he's retained from his beam weapon training, Kid has an underthrow speed of 0.2 seconds, which he uses with his good coordination with Tetsuma. His speed was enough to best even Shin of the Ojou White Knights (during the spring tournament). Furthermore, it exceeded even Hiruma's calculations (although at this time, Hiruma's team had been crippled before Musashi's return). Hiruma himself states that "Mushanokouji Shien is a genius," acknowledging that his strategies have been predicted, saying that Kid's abilities as a quarterback are well above those of Agon's, and otherwise rather Kid very highly. Kid, on the other hand, acts in a very understated manner and downplays himself whenever he is being overrated, but Hiruma's taunting reveals that he hides a vicious fighting spirit.
Though his physical abilities are not particularly noteworthy, Kid can execute highly strategic moves purely through instict and reflexes. In other words, he has the sensibilities of a prodigy -- in that sense, his technique is of the highest calibre. He is also a skilled tactician, as well as being an excellent team player. Even Agon from the Shinryuuji Nagas acknowledged his skills, sincerely labeling him a "genius" (such as others like Hosokawa Ikkyu, Susumu, Akabane, etc.) He was included in the Tokyo Tournament Best Eleven as an attacking quarterback.
At the semi-finals of the Kantou Tournament, he executed the high-risk strategy of drawing Gaou in close to him and performing high-speed passes, wanting to win the match so that Tetsuma and Riku would be able to compete with the Devilbats in the finals. However, the moment he was caught in a split second of thought, Gaou attacked him and shattered his arm, forcing him to retreat from the match. (It can be guessed from the presentation of Tetsuma clearing the field of Hakushuu players, and the fact that Kid's past quick throws had succeeded, that Kid had been planning a long pass, but Gaou tackled him before Tetsuma could reach the planner spot.)
After the Christmas Bowl, he was nominated for and joined the Japanese All-stars Team.
His favorite saying is, "When things go well, they tend to go badly afterward," which can be seen as a form of admonishment for when people had high expectations of his rifle skills, which he failed to live up to. In addition, his nihilistic, self-deprecating nature can be seen as a new persona developed to suppress the weaknesses of when he mentally buckled to those past high expecations and pressure.
Hiruma's nickname for him is "Fucking Eyebrows." Suzuna calls him "Kiddon."
After graduating from high school, he starts a stunt show with Tetsuma, called "Western & Car." He also joins the Construction Babels with Musashi, resuming his career in American football.
