Appearance

Moon was a tall, well-built man with dark hair kept short and slightly spiky, standing up in a way that recalls Baro's look. He had a pointed, concave nose, flat horizontal eyebrows, and a short beard.

Personality

Early on, Moon and Snuffy dismissed each other over petty things like their difference in size, but a goal that demanded their combined effort turned that disdain into respect, and eventually a deep friendship on and off the pitch. Carefree, ambitious, and laid-back, Moon was a hedonist who put his own enjoyment ahead of the discipline the sport demanded. He held that revolutions and breakthroughs come not from rule-following adults but from society's rebellious brats, an outlook that also let him dodge accountability. When Snuffy suggested dropping to a lesser club to rebuild, Moon flatly refused, insisting only the big clubs mattered, and swore to chase their dream with or without his friend.

History

Together Moon and Snuffy set out to win all five of Europe's grand championships, in England, Spain, Italy, France, and Germany. Moon captured only one before his form collapsed and his clubs lost faith in him, undone by indiscipline and too much fun away from football. Snuffy urged a move to a smaller side to recover, but Moon would hear none of it. After the falling-out he sank into alcohol and ultimately took his own life; Snuffy found his body and resolved to carry their dream forward. His story foreshadows the manga's theme of geniuses forcing radical ideas onto the world, and both his mindset and his appearance closely mirror Shoei Baro.
