History
As a child, Bachira took a liking to football and would spend all his time playing. He also quickly developed a talent for dribbling, being able to control the ball and move past others with ease. However, due to his skill and overwhelming passion, he was frequently bullied and called names by other children. Encouraged by his mother, he chose to simply listen the voice of belief within himself, which he referred to as his “monster”. Using it as his guide, motivator, and something of an imaginary friend, Bachira played on and became a highly skilled player. However, he struggles with finding like-minded individuals who loved playing as much as he did, or those with a “monster” within them as well.
Introduction
Bachira was introduced as one of the players in Team Z, alongside Isagi Yoichi. He instantly took a liking to Isagi, recognizing him as an individual with a “monster” within him as well. During the first test, Bachira went to certain measures to prevent him from being eliminated, such as grappling another player to make an easy target for Isagi to tag, or taking the ball from Isagi himself.
First Selection
Through the first selection, Bachira remained the closest friend to Isagi, frequently working closely with him in all the matches against the other teams, selflessly passing the ball to Isagi to allow him to score instead. After losing their first match, he went on to play a vital role in all of Isagi’s vision and tactics, using his adept dribbling skills to cut through the enemy defenses, allowing them to win the next three matches and finish in 2nd place, allowing them to pass the first selection.
